Commitment.

Before the Internet made searching for apartments easier and before she was even old enough to drive a car, Whitnie was already involved in real estate. As a teenager Whitnie helped her friends and family navigate the rocky waters of finding the perfect New York City home. After years of gaining invaluable experience working both up-front and behind the scenes in the entertainment and public relations industries, she returned to real estate. Whitnie treats her clients like friends and family.

Service. The best proof of Whitnie’s great customer service acumen is her 2006 and 2007 Outstanding Customer Service Award. She has also received the 2006 Outstanding Listing Agent Award. If an owner wants an aggressive and tireless representative that never quits until the property is rented or sold, Whitnie Payne is your agent.

Experience. Born and raised in New York, Whitnie focuses on rentals and sales in Brooklyn, Harlem, and Downtown Manhattan—including the hot Financial District market. She enjoys working with owners to list and sell their apartments and townhouses. Her years of business experience in New York provide her with an extensive network of investors and sellers. But what truly makes Whitnie an outstanding real estate agent are her personal attributes, "My cosmopolitan street sense and my detail-oriented nature developed during my public relations/market research days permit me to offer comprehensive service to my clients," she says.

I highly recommend Whitnie Payne as an experienced and knowledgeable Real Estate Salesperson. Since I had a short time frame within to move I found her very responsive in presenting me listings for Apartments in a timely manner. She listened carefully as to what we were looking for and presented only those apartments that filled our criteria. I will definitely use her services again in the future, if needed.
