Michael Saunders & Company officially broke ground on their future Wellen Park office, bringing a major name in Gulf Coast real estate to one of the region’s fastest-growing communities. Under sunny skies and surrounded by palms and promise, the team came together to mark the occasion with a ceremonial shovel-in-the-ground moment — a clear sign of what’s coming next in Wellen Park.

📍 Location: Adjacent to the West Villages Plaza where Publix is
🛠️ What’s Coming: A full-service Michael Saunders & Company real estate office serving the greater Wellen Park area and surrounding neighborhoods.
Shawn Strodoski, Managing Broker of the new office, shared her excitement on LinkedIn:
“Today’s groundbreaking for our future Michael Saunders & Company office in Wellen Park was a memorable moment filled with promise and purpose. I’m incredibly honored and excited to lead our newest office — a vibrant, growing community that truly reflects the spirit of MS&C. The future is bright, and the energy is real — stay tuned, because this office is destined to be something special!”

Strodoski brings deep experience in Sarasota County real estate and community development and will lead the Wellen Park team as they expand services across this dynamic region — from new home communities and golf neighborhoods to seasonal and year-round buyers discovering Wellen for the first time.
Michael Saunders & Company has long been a trusted name across Southwest Florida, known for their high-touch service, market expertise, and deep roots in the communities they serve. The Wellen Park office will join a growing portfolio of MS&C locations across Sarasota, Venice, and the surrounding Gulf Coast.
Wellen Park continues to attract top regional and national businesses. With over 10,000 residents and a projected buildout of 60,000+, it’s no surprise that major players in healthcare, hospitality, retail, and now real estate are investing in permanent spaces here.
Construction on the MS&C office is officially underway. Stay tuned — we’ll keep you updated on grand opening dates and community events tied to the launch.
