Dustin E. Holt

Partner/Associate Broker

A Utah native, Dustin's love for real estate started at a young age as he would spend hours sketching plans for his future subdivisions & homes. This love blossomed and Dustin soon found himself at the University of Utah pursuing a degree in Architectural Design. While still attending college, Dustin found himself involved in his first real estate transaction. After months of value-added work he was finally able to witness the evolutionary process of old-to-new. He enjoyed the process so much he found himself yearning to do it again.

After successful completion of small residential projects, he decided it was time to pursue larger opportunities so he moved to EXIT Realty Advantage in Midvale, UT where he quickly became Head of Builder/Developer Relations.
