Erik Kaldor, GRI, Realtor

This past summer my son and I climbed “Half Dome” mountain at Yosemite National Park. This famous peak rises 5,000 feet above the Yosemite Valley floor. Climbers use hand cables to ascend the last 400 feet up an almost sheer granite face. It was a thrilling experience for us, but not without a case of nerves as we began. I focused on each movement of my hands and feet. When we reached the summit,

we were rewarded with a gorgeous view of the valley floor and the surrounding mountain peaks. With that same focus, I am dedicated to being your real estate professional, helping you find your dream home or selling your current one. I look forward to guiding you through every step of the process. Before I became a Realtor®, I enjoyed a career in healthcare marketing and communications. I worked for hospitals, Medtronic Neurosurgry, and medical practices—including seven years as the spokesperson for Mayo Clinic Jacksonville. I’m a graduate of the Art Institute of Pittsburgh and the University of North Florida. I used my training and experience early in my life as a TV producer to help people connect with audiences through websites, apps and videos. I was sought after for my ability to work with challenging people and to quickly understand complex material in order to produce powerful and compelling videos that inform, educate and motivate. I have lived in the historic St. Nicholas neighborhood of Jacksonville for 30 years, and my roots are deep in the community. My wife and I have raised our two children here. My son graduated from Bishop Kenny High School, and my daughter is a student there. I coached youth baseball for five years, have taught Sunday School for 25 years—working with children from preschool to middle school. I have been active on the boards of the Jacksonville chapter of the Florida Public Relations Association and St. Nicholas Area Preservation. I volunteer monthly at Trinity Rescue Mission, cooking and serving meals. And for the past three years, my family has sponsored a Haitian child through Mission of Hope Haiti, to ensure she gets a quality education. Jacksonville is special for me as my fondest memories have been made here. I look forward to helping you make your own memories here in your next home.
