REALTOR® Association Announces Five ‘REALTORS® to Watch’ Under the Age of 40

Posted by: Communications Department on Wednesday, August 2, 2023

 

The Young Professionals Network (YPN) from the REALTOR® Association of Sarasota and Manatee (RASM) has recognized five rising stars in the local real estate industry. From community service involvement to leadership pursuits, these five REALTORS® represent a young group of ‘go-getters’ who share the common bonds of professionalism, dedication, and perseverance.

Earlier this year, REALTORS® under the age of 40 (as of March 1, 2023), were eligible to apply to the program. After careful review of each application by members of the YPN Committee, these five agents were selected as the “REALTORS® to Watch Under 40: Class of 2023.”

  • Jesse Bauer, Realtor®, Sarasota Gulf Coast Homes, Keller Williams on the Water Sarasota
  • Coy Carter, Broker Associate & Realtor®, Wagner Realty
  • Lily Lopez, Realtor®, Coldwell Banker Realty Downtown Sarasota
  • Brooke Mailloux, Realtor®, Florida SunCoast Real Estate, Inc.
  • Elena Stefanoski, Realtor®, Director of Agent Development, Preferred Shore Real Estate

With more and more young professionals starting their careers in real estate earlier than before, these five individuals are showing their drive to succeed and setting an example for the next generation of REALTORS®. Their stories were highlighted in the August issue of the REALTOR® Association of Sarasota and Manatee magazine, ELEVATE. To read the online magazine article, click here.
