Greetings From Punta Gorda

[Samuel Jolicoeur]

Hello everybody! I am so glad to be here, and it’s so great to meet you all. Allow me to introduce myself:

My name is Samuel Jolicoeur and I am a 22 year old native Floridian originally born in Naples and raised in a small city called Punta Gorda. It’s basically the halfway point between Tampa and Naples; right off I-75. A sleepy retirement town where the median age is over 60 and the night life consists of going somewhere else because there isn’t one besides the bars. 

I earned my license in July 2022 and I am searching for the right broker for me. I was planning on joining the USCG and my deployment kept getting pushed back until now when I’ve decided I’m joining the reserves instead, which is why I haven’t activated my license yet (I didn’t want to join a broker when I thought I’d only be there a few weeks). That wasn’t where my passion lies, but real estate is. I am determined to make real estate my bread and butter in life and I am eager to learn as much as possible. Every day. I know where I want to be in 20 years but I haven’t found the path to get there yet.

If any of you are locals to my area or nearby areas (Tampa -> Naples) I’d love to hear from you and pick your brain a bit. I will be starting off as an agent of course but I am also interested in wholesaling, property managing, mortgage lending, development, and hard money lending when the day comes that I’ve got the capital to spare. If you can relate to me at all or are a professional in any of these areas then I would love to talk more about it as I start to find my path forward. Basically I’m looking for a mentor. 

With that being said I hope you all have an incredible day and that you all find success and happiness.
