LOCALLY OWNED AND OPERATED REAL ESTATE BROKERAGE FIRM IN THE HAMPTONS
Saunders & Associates’ unique model for getting our listings seen and sold continues to capture market share and establish new performance milestones.
a higher form of realty
Helmed by Founder and President Andrew Saunders, Saunders & Associates is the Hamptons leading real estate brokerage firm with over $20 Billion sold and rented. This success is owed to the firm’s continued commitment to its founding mission to create a Higher Form of Realty.
Previously a leading agent and successful developer, Andrew Saunders recognized how an agentfocused, media-savvy brokerage firm would thrive in the Hamptons. Saunders purchased the company’s first office building in Bridgehampton in January 2008, started renovating, and opened Saunders & Associates in October of the same year.
After several successful years from this vantage point, Andrew observed a clear—but unmet—need for a Hamptons-focused real estate brokerage firm with the smartest administrative, marketing, and technology professionals, all dedicated to “A Higher Form Of Realty.” A place where agents are energized and fully supported.
In 2008 this idea, this company, would come to be called Saunders & Associates.
Together with Colleen Saunders, a seasoned leader in the world of luxury marketing and a small, close-knit core of agents, the firm steadily expanded the reach of the Saunders brand. Fully owned and operated from the Hamptons, this team established vast—and lasting—relationships with buyers, sellers, renters, investors, and builders.
At Saunders & Associates, luxury is a service. The company was founded with the mandate to create a Hamptons-focused real estate brokerage firm that treats its agents like customers and mobilizes significant resources in connection with their efforts to list and sell properties. The firm created an in-house advertising agency staffed with full-time photographers, videographers, graphic designers, web designers, social media experts, IT tech support, and copywriters. Controlling every component of a marketing endeavor makes Saunders agile, innovative, and ready to capitalize on opportunities that get listings seen and sold.
From Westhampton Beach to Montauk, all 5 Saunders offices, including the renovated, state-of-theart marketing department, are open 7 days a week, ready to support agents quickly and efficiently. The firm has evolved to include an affiliated title provider, New York Title Abstract Services, Inc., as well as a dedicated media division in Saunders Broadcasting Corp., which solely owns Hamptons.com, all local streaming cameras and the trademark “Happening In The Hamptons”.

We have over 40 years’ experience in the Hamptons real estate market, but much more important than that is our reputation for building incredible bonds with our clients, cultivating longstanding relationships, and delivering exceptionally successful transactions.
