Apartment Association of Western North Carolina

Apartment Association of Western North Carolina AAWNC has much to offer those who are involved with the multi-family housing industry. We encourage you to become an active member today!

HISTORY

The Greater Asheville Area Apartment Association (GAAAA) was founded in early 1980 by a group of apartment managers and management firms to provide the apartment industry with an association that could unite them under one name, offering continuing education for their personnel, and providing related service groups the opportunity to become involved. These three factors became the foundat

ion of the present association. In 2010, the name was changed to the Apartment Association of Western North Carolina to further serve multi-housing professionals in our region.

|

The three primary objectives of the AAWNC are:

To promote goodwill and professionalism within the industry and community
To provide ongoing education opportunities for all members
To promote the continuing growth of our industry through legislative guidance and support

Each of the above objectives is of vital importance to every member of the Association, especially now, as our industry prepares for a future of increased governmental regulation at all levels, increased competition, and diminishing profitability industry-wide. Our ability to adapt to the future successfully depends to a large degree upon our joint efforts in accomplishing these goals.

✨ Board Member Spotlight ✨

Meet Tina Gorby-Baker, our dedicated Treasurer who brings 20 years of experience, leadership, and industry passion to the multifamily world.

Tina began her career as a part-time leasing and marketing professional with MAA and was promoted to Assistant Manager within just six months — a testament to her drive and work ethic. She went on to spend 15 years with Lincoln Property Company (now Willow Bridge), managing lease-ups, new construction, and renovation communities within their NYLife portfolio. She later managed with Pegasus Residential in Greenville, SC before pursuing her passion for marketing with Apartments.com/CoStar — a natural next step in a career where marketing was always one of her favorite parts of the job.

Her service to the industry runs deep. Tina served on the Greater Augusta Apartment Association Board for four years, including two years as Secretary. She was also a longtime member of the Atlanta Apartment Association for 15 years and served on its Membership Committee for two years.

Throughout her career, Tina has earned numerous awards, including two Gold Medallion Awards with Lincoln Property Company and the Flying Pig Award with Pegasus Residential — recognitions that reflect her commitment to excellence and leadership.

On the AAWNC Board, Tina brings financial stewardship, strategic insight, and a heart for strengthening our Association and its members.

We’re proud to have a leader whose experience, dedication, and industry knowledge continue to make a lasting impact. 💙
