Ken Runge has over twenty years of experience in commercial real estate in Central Florida. He spent four years in the construction and maintenance fields, before finding his niche in Property Management with Watkins Retail Group. Ken knows the vital importance of building strong relationships with property owners, tenants, brokers, and other clients. Over the years, managing large portfolios of office, industrial, and retail properties, those strong relationships have resulted in high occupancies and excellent tenant retention rates for his property owners.
Ken also has experience in the fields of property acquisition, leasing, tenant representation, and property disposition. He has been involved in the disposition and acquisition of over $40,000,000 of commercial properties, and represented Giovanni’s Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria in the site selection and lease negotiations of their five Orlando area restaurant locations.
Ken is most proud of his seventeen years of friendship with the Edgewood Children’s Ranch, where he is currently on the Board of Directors. He is also actively involved with Jobs Partnership of Florida and Kingdom Building Partnership.
