GENERAL MANAGER IN-HOUSE COUNSEL

Holly Barberi joined the Vista Sotheby’s International Realty team in early 2019. After being General Counsel for other real estate brokerages for almost thirteen years, Holly changed roles such that she now incorporates both her legal and management skills as she assists Vista Sotheby’s International Realty in looking toward the future of real estate.
Holly graduated from the University of Houston Law Center in 2000 and practiced in Texas before returning to her native California in 2004. Over her almost two decades in the law, she has worked in private practice and in‐house with an emphasis on corporate, real estate and business law. However, Holly’s business skills have moved her beyond legal work and into general company management. She provides answers and assists agents at every turn on the road to a closed escrow as well as accompanying on their journeys as real estate business “owners” within a brokerage setting.
Holly is very proactive in keeping up to‐date on the changes in the real estate industry by publishing articles both inhouse and in various industry magazines. In addition, she speaks at company sales meetings and special events designed to keep agents, support team members and brokers informed of the latest trends in the market.
