As a fifth-generation native Floridian, it’s natural that Renee fell into real estate. Like many in the industry, all it took was one bad transaction to want better. Renee vows to protect homeowners and prevent similar situations from happening. While you can’t always guarantee a smooth closing, she’s passionate about keeping transactions straightforward. Renee Wojcek has traveled extensively to the UK and throughout North America, meeting international clients. You may have run into her at A Place in the Sun in London or Birmingham. Renee’s other passion is working towards eliminating homelessness and hunger in Central FL and beyond. Each commission earned donates $200 in your name towards an approved charity of your choice. Renee first started her real estate career in Destin, FL, in 1998. Her first foray into the industry was in both beachfront condos and investment properties. The condo field is where she learned about vacation rentals and HOA management. Having a foot on both sides meant learning how to maximize your ROI. However, it was quickly apparent that profitable real estate requires more than numbers and spreadsheets. Soon, Renee assembled her own boutique brokerage, specializing in Destin, FL, home sales. Unfortunately, health concerns led Renee and her family to Arizona for nearly a decade. In that time, she remained active within the industry, working the administrative side of things. Finally, they returned to the Vacation Capital of the World instead of the Panhandle. Renee joined JC Penny Realty in 2013, where she continues to add to her repertoire.
