ERIC HOLT

My wife and I moved to Solivita in 2019.  We were looking to escape from the harsh, cold weather of Minnesota and what we found was a little piece of paradise in central Florida called Solivita.  Although we both miss our family who still reside in Minnesota, the decision to pull up roots and relocate to sunny Florida proved to be one of the best life decisions that we have ever made.

I graduated in 1991 with a B.S. in Liberal Arts from the University of Wisconsin at River Falls.  I was a co-captain of the UWRF baseball team and an all-conference outfielder three times in my four year college career.

Go Falcons!

After college, I took my first job with the Wisconsin Department of Corrections as a state Probation & Parole Agent.  I left the department after five years and pursued a career with my father in the CNC machining industry.  I also have experience in the freight forwarding industry where I was employed as an international air export manager for approximately fifteen years.  I also owned a flooring installation company that specialized in stone, ceramic and porcelain tile installations in both residential and commercial applications.

I most recently picked up the sport of pickleball.  I am a member of the Solivita Smashers Pickleball Club.  I also enjoy spending time at the many pools that Solivita has to offer and I am working on my golf game.  The warm weather and sunshine of central Florida is perfect for walking my dog and riding bicycle.

I look forward to helping you find your own personal piece of paradise in this community that I call home.  Let me guide you through the process of selling or buying your home in this friendly senior community. Contact me day or night to begin your journey with the Arista Realty team.

Happy Clients!

Georgia,
I meant to write this earlier but we got busy getting settled. We want to let you know how happy we were with Eric during our home search in Solivita. The first day we talked to him we wanted to see a house immediately as houses were going fast. He set that up. We continued to contact him to look at more houses as they came up. We did finally bid on one but lost out on the bid. Eric then suggested we go talk to Jim in new home sales. It was a good decision and we put in a contract.We were still living in Wisconsin and Eric kept us regularly informed on progress with photos. When it came to closing he did walk through with us and pointed many details we had missed.
Eric was extremely personable, made us feel comfortable, and helped us get what we needed without being pushy (like we had experienced with other realtors).
We love our home and Solivita!
Karoline Auby and Rod Viner
