About Desmond
Desmond Bounds is a Commercial Sales Advisor and Partner at The Duriel Taylor Group at Compass, where he helps investors buy and sell commercial real estate across South Florida. Most of his time goes to hotels, multifamily properties, and land development. A lot of his best work happens quietly, connecting the right buyer with the right property before it ever reaches the open market.
Real estate runs in the family for Desmond. He grew up around the business, and his father has run a successful architecture firm for more than 30 years, designing hotels, multifamily communities, and other commercial properties, and owning several of his own along the way. That early exposure gave Desmond an appreciation for how buildings are designed and built, well before he ever brokered one.
Desmond's career has covered a lot of ground. His experience spans hotel operations, the hotel corporate world, commercial development project management, and investment sales. So when he looks at a property, he sees it the way an operator, a builder, and an investor would.
He holds two master's degrees from Florida International University, one in International Real Estate and one in Hospitality Management, and he completed Columbia University's Construction Project Management program.
Desmond keeps his approach simple: know the market, be transparent, and do the work it takes to get deals closed. He's a Florida licensed Broker based in South Florida and is always up for a conversation about real estate.
