Dean Sands has joined the Retail Investment Sales and Advisory Team of JLL Capital Markets as a managing director in the Washington, DC office. He will join managing directors Jordan Lex and Bill Moylan, as well as director Danny Naughton, in a move to establish a deep bench of retail capital markets advisors serving the Mid-Atlantic region.
