A Maine native originally from the Bangor area, Erica now calls Bar Harbor home since 2006. After graduating from Emmanuel College in Boston with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management and Economics, Erica ventured to Fort Collins, Colorado, where she started working for a rental and real estate sales company. Always interested in design and architecture, and having a natural affinity for working with people, Erica discovered her passion: helping clients find a place to call home. This experience, combined with her previous career in hospitality, made the leap into brokerage a natural transition. After years in the Rockies, Erica found herself missing the ocean life and rugged beauty of Maine. She moved back home and joined Swan Agency Real Estate in 2006 as part of the administrative team, concentrating on the commercial and lodging divisions. Once assimilated into the local market, Erica got her Maine real estate license in the fall of 2006.

Currently holding an Associate Broker license, Erica enjoys working with both buyers and sellers in residential and commercial transactions, focusing her efforts in the Mount Desert Island and greater Hancock County areas. Owning and managing her own investment properties, Erica also enjoys working with other investor clients.  Erica is very active in social media marketing and was even featured as a local agent on the HGTV show “Island Life," which premiered in January 2015. In 2016, Erica was awarded Acadia Council "Realtor of the Year." In 2014 Erica started The Erica Brooks Group, working with Erin Leonardi to assist their clients together. Erica was Swan Agency Real Estate's top producing agent in 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and recently was in the top 25 brokers in the State of Maine in 2021.

An active citizen of Bar Harbor, Erica served on the Bar Harbor planning board and various other Town committees. During 2014-2015 Erica was also the President of the Acadia Council of Realtors and is still very active in that committee - a division of the Maine Association of Realtors. Giving back is her passion while serving on the boards of Island Housing Trust and Open Table MDI.  When she’s not working, you’ll likely find her enjoying Acadia National Park, golfing in the Kebo Valley ladies league, spending time with her nieces, renovating her 1895 Victorian home in downtown Bar Harbor, or taking a break to catch the sunset at her beach cottage in Trenton.
