Our Story

Built on Trust,
Defined by Excellence

Prestige Estates was founded in 1998 by Alexander Whitmore with a singular conviction: that the most discerning clients in the world deserve an advisory partner who truly understands the art of luxury real estate.

Over 28 years, we have grown from a boutique Manhattan practice to a globally recognized brokerage spanning 18 cities across three continents, with over $14.2 billion in closed transactions and a client roster that reads like a who's who of global business, culture, and finance.

Our philosophy is simple: every client deserves our absolute best — regardless of whether they are purchasing their first investment property or their tenth private estate. We measure success not by transaction volume, but by the trust our clients place in us.
