About Eric Leitten

Eric came to the Emerald Coast 21 years ago, from Buffalo NY, through the United States Air Force. After his enlistment concluded, he completed his degree in Finance from the University of Central Florida and worked program finance in the defense industry. He returned to the area with the F35 program and assisted in producing the very first flights out of Eglin. Once the program was handed over to the military, Eric started his career in Real Estate and hasn't looked back. The beginning was working with one of the area's largest vacation rental managers. There, Eric was immersed in short term rental operations and revenue management. He was tasked with working with 200 owners, and retaining and growing the area rental portfolio. After becoming a licensed agent, Eric moved his focus into sales and hit the ground running, primarily in the resort markets of Destin, Miramar Beach, 30A, and Panama City Beach. He quickly became known as an investor's agent that could analyze and uncover value opportunities in the STR space. Over the years he has worked with beginners to savvy investors, and everything in between. Eric owns short term rentals locally and out of state, and also leads a small, boutique vacation rental management agency with his wife, Donna. He has learned his lessons along the way through the work.

Eric was an awesome partner in helping us find our first condo in PCB. He was very knowledgeable on the market in general and had insight to each of the buildings we looked at and gave his recommendations as a local. Throughout the purchasing process Eric was a great help and would always try and stay ahead of the process should any issues arise. I would recommend him for anyone looking in the area and cant wait to use him again on our next purchase.

Eric was great to work with. He went to several properties for us and did video viewings; we were looking for our retirement home location from Wisconsin. We ended up with a beautiful lot and look forward to building. Thank you for coordinating all the viewings and paperwork.

Was willing to meet at my convenience on a Saturday and take as much time as I needed. He did a great job of answering questions and showed a good knowledge of property in the area. He returned calls and emails promptly and did not pressure me about decisions. He will be the first person I call next time I'm looking for a property.

Eric did an awesome job getting us into our new Santa Rosa house. He was very easy to work with and walked us through all the steps of buying a new home. Also, we moved from out of state and Eric went the extra mile to get things in order for us. I highly recommend Eric.

Eric was an absolute pleasure to work with. His knowledge of the local area, current market along with his professionalism were all beyond my expectations. The efforts he put into the photography along with the virtual walk through really emphasized the homes beauty and ultimately drove the sale of the home. I cannot thank Eric enough for the seamless sale.
