Leslie Saunders is a real estate advisor based in Park City, Utah. She specializes in 1031 exchanges, land development, determining the best and highest use for different parcels, and estate sales. With a background working 15 years in the legal industry in Century City, California for large international law firms, including on the Katzenberg v. Disney case, she transitioned to real estate and property development after being inspired by colleagues who had homes in Utah. She is a graduate of the University of San Diego and the University of California, San Diego. Leslie maintains memberships in the Park City Board of Realtors, the Salt Lake Board of Realtors, the National Association of Realtors, and the Utah Association of Realtors, as well as the Wasatch Pony Club. She volunteers with the Peace House domestic violence shelter, Paint Your Heart Out for NeighborWorks, and the Community Development Corporation. She attributes her success to her mother, who encouraged her to overcome obstacles, and advises young women entering the industry to secure passive income through multifamily real estate acquisitions. Her values center on taking care of the things you love, and she notes challenges in staying visible through social media marketing while relying on word-of-mouth referrals.
