Dean's Desk is a home for the insights and perspectives of Dean Jones, President and CEO of Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty. Through articles, market commentary, and conversations with industry leaders, Dean explores the forces shaping real estate, from technology and economic trends to shifting wealth and buyer behavior. Part knowledge library, part forward-looking journal, the site brings his observations and ideas together to help readers understand today’s market and anticipate what comes next.

As CEO, Dean Jones leads the Pacific Northwest’s largest Sotheby’s International Realty affiliate within the global real estate network. Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty has branch offices in downtown Seattle, Bainbridge Island, Madison Park, downtown Bellevue, Mercer Island, Kirkland, Redmond, Woodinville, Bothell, and a professional center in Tacoma. RSIR’s global real estate advisors proudly serve all property types and price points throughout the Puget Sound region and beyond.

As a former developer, his firm, T. Jones, Inc., was honored nationally with "Development Firm of the Year" by the Pillars of Industry in 2001, and Dean was named "Marketing Director of the Year" in 2003 by the National Association of Home Builders. As an advisor to third-party developments, his firm, Realogics, Inc., founded in 2002, was the catalyst for more than $2 billion in project sales, earning his many clients 130 sales and marketing awards, including “Attached Community of the Year” five times. Today, he oversees a collective of more than 400 real estate brokers and staff in ten offices, which consistently rank among the top-producing brokerage offices in the markets they serve. In the seven consecutive years following 2012, Realogics Sotheby's International Realty was awarded among the "Fastest Growing Private Companies" in Washington state, according to the Puget Sound Business Journal, and though boutique, the full-service brokerage is ranked among the top 10 largest in Puget Sound.

He is the Founding Member of the Futurecast Forum—a regional think tank of market luminaries who tackle the trendlines before the headlines, articulating where the industry is heading next.
