Neal Hanks, Sr., 1976\" width=\"450\" height=\"344\" \/>In 1976, two of the area&#8217;s most prominent real estate brokers, George Beverly and W. Neal Hanks, Sr., recognized the value of working together in order to strengthen both their businesses and the community they both loved. That year, Beverly-Hanks &amp; Associates was founded with the mission to be Western North Carolina&#8217;s best real estate company. In the four decades since, that mission has remained unchanged.<br \/>\nHowever, being the best real estate company in WNC means more than transacting the most residential and commercial properties in the region. George Beverly and Neal Hanks were committed to building the community through more than merely real estate sales. Programs like the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eblencharities.org\/2014\/07\/neal-hanks-sr-housing-assistance-continues-to-grow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Neal Hanks, Sr. Housing Assistance Program<\/a> and the company <a href=\"http:\/\/www.beverly-hanks.com\/our-company\/memorial-fund\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Memorial Fund<\/a> have ensured that families in our communities have greater access to affordable housing and nonprofit resources each year.<br \/>\nOur founders recognized it was the people of Western North Carolina who built our communities, and it is the local families and professionals who make our area what it is today.<br \/>\nUnder the second-generation leadership of Neal Hanks, Jr., Beverly-Hanks &amp; Associates, REALTORS\u00ae is proud to continue that community-minded legacy. We are the largest local real estate company, representing more commercial properties and homes and land for sale throughout Western North Carolina than any other real estate firm. But our size only enhances our total capabilities to contribute to the community in which we live.<br \/>\nBeverly-Hanks is honored to continue the legacy of George Beverly and Neal Hanks. From our day-to-day office tasks to each of our staff\u2019s and agent\u2019s personal commitments to the community, we never forget what it means to call Western North Carolina home.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 0.85; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer; top: 99px; left: 358px;\">Save<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c  no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 0.85; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer; top: 99px; left: 358px;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In honor of Beverly-Hanks\u2019 40 years in business, we\u2019d like to celebrate our company founders this Father\u2019s Day weekend.
