Chad grew up on a small farm in southern Ohio. Upon graduating High School he made the move to Columbus, Ohio where he attended Ohio State University, met his wife Christina, and had two sons. In 2009 they decided that they wanted to live closer to family and friends, and enjoy a slower pace of life so they made the move to sunny Myrtle Beach, SC. Chad spent his first few years in Myrtle Beach managing for a popular local restaurant group, eventually going on to become one of the only Certified Cicerone's in South Carolina and the Craft Beer Brand Manager for a beer distributor. This job allowed him to travel the area daily, from Georgetown to Little River, meeting new people, and giving him a unique insight into the different communities that encompass the Grand Strand. It's Chad's knowledge of these communities and passion for relationships that drove him to become a Realtor®. When not working he enjoys good food, great beer, movies, biking, and spending time with his family and friends.

Chad Whitley exceeded my expectations. Our Dad’s house was being sold with 5 parties to receive funds, which created a convoluted legal challenge regarding Probate in 4 states. Chad provided excellent guidance as to what types of attorneys we needed, etc. Chad also went the extra mile on many occasions, even helping us get needed repairs performed (we are out of State). Lastly, Chad is an excellent communicator, and kept the group appraised of the status along the way (about one year)! I would HIGHLY recommend Chad to a friend with a high degree of confidence. THANK YOU Chad!

I found Chad by submitting a request to see a condo on Zillow. He was the scheduled realtor. He met us on time and spent 1 1/2 days with us looking at a list of condos, knowing that we would only be in the area for 2 days. We found one we liked, he helped negotiate and stayed on top of things throughout the entire process through closing. I highly recommend him!

This was the first house that my wife and I bought. Chad did an exceptional job! Not only did he go over every detail about the process, he also brought up questions to the seller that we did not think about. Chad kept us updated throughout every point. I was always able to reach him via text or phone call. He clearly had our best interests in mind!

Chad well prepared and informed about every home we ask him to show us. You can see that he put the work before even showing us the homes, he research on each of the homes, which really help us decide on our home. This research brought to light manu things that we weren't even aware of. On the showings he was great, friendly, and prompt. He was on-time to all of our showings. Overall a great experience with Chad. Whenever we need to upgrade to a newer/bigger home we will definitely use Chad services. I would totally recommend him to friends and family that needs of a realtor.

Chad was incredibly easy to work with. He was very knowledgeable and informative throughout the process. He made himself available and very easy to reach whenever we had questions. I will certainly recommend Chad to anyone we know moving to, or already in the south, and if we decide to move back we would connect with him again. Thank you.

Chad and the team consistently looked after our interests throughout the entire process, right up to saving us $10G right before closing. The amazing title company, Hutchens Law Firm, worked with us to do a mail away closing ahead of time, and they worked seamlessly with Chad to provide an stress-free experience!!!!!

Chad, was the best to work with and was very patient with us as we purchased our home over 5 months from RI, which included 4 visits from us to SC. He also helped my mother in law find a home as well. He answered all our questions and definitely went the extra mile on multiple occasions. He was more like a family friend.

Chad is great. He answered all of our questions and concerns. Every time we asked to watch a home, he will research the property and bring that information to us so we could make a more educated decision. He always had time for us, and we really appreciate it. He guided us through the closing process and whenever we had a question he was there for us. Definitely we will recommend Chad to family and friends.

Chad Whitley could be the poster child for the real estate industry. He is experienced and offers sound advice. He's very knowledgeable about the area and can offer suggestions for neighborhoods, shopping and dining. Most importantly, he follows through with his commitments, anticipates questions from his clients, and communicates every step along the weay of the buying process. We've already recommended him to a number of family and friends and would do so again.

I cannot say enough good things about my recent experience with Chad. He is very knowledgeable, responsive, and helpful, and while I know he must have many other clients, he made me feel as if I were the only one. Thanks to Chad, the entire transaction was smooth and simple, and I knew I was in great hands.

Being from CT, it was important to work with an agent who was knowledgeable of the area & market fluctuations. We met Chad Whitley over a year ago when we looked at one of his listings. Though that home wasn’t a good fit for us, we immediately clicked with Chad’s honesty & down-to-earth personality And started working with him. After many FaceTime walkthroughs, countless hours of negotiations and rectifying issues on our behalf, we have closed and couldn’t be happier. Chad also has a network of professionals (appraisers, inspectors, lawyers, etc.) to help make the process as easy as possible. Do yourselves a favor and call Chad, it will be the best call you ever made.

From prelisting to closing, Chad was phenomenal!!! He explained everything to us in detail and was available for any questions or concerns throughout the entire deal. Chad's expertise of South Carolina real estate law which differed from other states with which we were more familar was invaluable. The photos of our home were beautifully and professionally done which is so important with out of state sales and how many people use the internet these days to view houses. We had high numbers of views on many websites, one viewer from out of state became the new owner of this home. Our sale was a bit trickier as we wanted and got a rent back from the new owner while our new home is being built. Chad ensured all of our bases were covered. We have already told a few folks considering buying/selling about Chad and we highly recommend him as he made the entire process as enjoyable and seamlessly smooth as we have ever experienced in selling our other 5 homes throughout our lives. With Gratitude, Dari and Earl Carnes

Looking for a new home is a bit overwhelming especially in a new state and city. From the first phone call with Chad to the never ending questions we’d ask, not only was Chad professional but knowledgeable and caring. Chad was there every step of the way through the whole process. The team that he works with at Coldwell Banker helped us, accommodated us and explained everything we asked. It all made the process so much easier and less stressful. After all the homes we saw online and had Chad go see for us, we finally walked into this house and we knew we made the right choice. We believe that wouldn’t have been possible if not for Chad. We are now home!
