Hugh Huffaker, Chattanooga's longest-serving Realtor, has hung up his for-sale sign after 55 years.
"To start your own firm and attract agents is a big challenge," Mr. Huffaker said. "It took a period of time, and I ended up with 100 agents and four offices. Real estate is one of the things I enjoyed the most."
Crye-Leike employees and other local real estate agents celebrated Mr. Huffaker's career at a ceremony Wednesday at the company's downtown office. Mr. Huffaker sold his company to Crye-Leike in 1997.
"He has been one of the pillars of the real estate community the past 55 years," said Jack Webb, a Crye-Leike commercial broker who served as president of Huffaker Inc.
Crye-Leike is a full-service real estate company founded in Memphis in 1977.
