    Whits strong knowledge of the Lake Placid real estate market was unmatched by other realtors we worked with in the past. Whit was on top of all aspects of our sale. We would not hesitate to use Whit again for any of our future real estate needs. We would highly recommend Whit if youre looking for a real estate agent in The Adirondack region.

    Whit made the process of buying and selling a pleasure. He represented us through two purchases and one sale. Whit was available to answer all of my questions, gave great recommendations and never hesitated to go the extra mile to help close the deal. I would have no hesitation in recommending Whit to anyone looking for a really wonderful person to work with when buying or selling their home.

    Whit is amazing and I couldnt ask for a better realtor to work with. I contacted him on a Saturday night and he was able to get us into the property (that wasnt his listing) the very next morning. As a first time home buyer, I had A LOT of questions. He went above and beyond to answer them, was always very responsive anytime I reached out, and was always on top of communicating with the sellers realtor. He even went to the property on my behalf for the inspection since I couldnt make it. From our initial call, all the way to closing, I could rely on him and trust him. Dont hesitate to work with him! Ill definitely be using him again if we buy another property in the area. Thanks for your hard work Whit!

    Whit is a meticulous, thoughtful, kind, responsive and easy to work with realtor. I had the first pleasure of meeting him as the sellers agent (I was the buyer) and then I used him for a second transaction as my buyers agent. Both times he was extremely responsive (texting back at all hours), very thorough (helped arrange early access, packages, etc.) and went above and beyond with each and every detail. Ill be honest, I'm not a fan of realtors mostly because I feel that they offer zero value added and subsume a significant commission. Whit is a rare exception. He adds tremendous value, local knowledge, honesty and clear and prompt communication to meet your every need. Also, little known fact, he is a professional photographer and takes outstanding photos of the property. His listing photos are better than any photos Ive seen done by hired photographers, just another perk to using Whit! I would not and will not hesitate to use Whit again and again. I highly recommend having him on your team for your next real estate transaction!
