The roots of our firm date back over 43 years to 1965 when Austin and Emma Whitney founded Whitney Realty on the island of Clearwater Beach, Florida.  Today it is based in Asheville, North Carolina and is operated by their son, Richard Whitney, CCIM, SIOR, CPM, GC who entered the real estate profession in 1974 at the age of 19.

For six years, we held a Sperry Van Ness franchise.  In 2011, we went back to being a private company – Whitney Commercial Real Estate Services.
