Born in Jacksonville, Florida, to a military family, Elaine Samaan’s formative years were spent living in countries all around the world. Her life experiences have given her an understanding of just how important it is for a real estate agent to listen to the needs of a client, and they’ve also given her unrivaled skills in relocating clients to the Jacksonville area.

After attending the University of West Florida and the University of Florida, where Elaine earned a bachelor’s degree in elementary education and a master’s degree in education leadership and nonprofit leadership, she worked as a teacher and administrator, developing a broad skill set that enables her to listen to and truly understand her clients’ needs. Elaine’s experience also provided her with the ability to think on her feet, an invaluable trait in real estate for when the unexpected arises and a quick solution is crucial.

Elaine’s passion for guiding people was what drew her into real estate. After watching her friends and family go through unfortunate real estate experiences, she knew she could do better. After working with a top agent and growing his team, she set out on her own. Whether helping first-time homebuyers secure their future or aiding clients in purchasing a second home to grow their wealth, she loves being the individual who enables their growth and connects them to new communities.

Elaine obtained her real estate license in 2018 and has since become a Nocatee Certified Agent and an eTown Certified agent. She also holds a Military Relocation Professional certification and was featured in Top Agent Magazine in 2021. She was recognized with the Diamond in the Rough award in 2019 for her success as a rookie agent and has received the Homesnap Top Agent Award, placing her in the top tier of Homesnap agents nationwide. She is also recognized by her peers as a top-producing agent within the Northeast Florida area.

Elaine moved back to Northeast Florida in 2011 and met her husband, who also works in real estate. In 2014, they bought a home in St. Johns Forest. When they aren’t working with their amazing clients, Elaine and her husband are planning their next travel adventure to someplace exotic or spending time with their rescue dog, Lola.
