Drew Butler has helped me sell and purchase a house and a condominium in the last year and a half. He and his team could not be more attentive and professional than they have been. Drew was always there when I had a question or needed information about the process. His staff made sure every necessary detail was covered to afford a smooth transition. I wouldn’t take a chance with anyone else in these important matters.

We are so glad we got a recommendation from a friend for Drew. We were from out of state and needed expert help in finding our new home. He asked questions about what we wanted/needed in a new home and knew exactly in what direction to take us. In a matter of days, we found our perfect home. He is/was very cordial, professional and knowledgeable throughout the whole process. He worked relentlessly (including Sunday) to help us. Highly recommend Drew!!

"We had the pleasure of working with Sabrina [Zeoli] to purchase our condo in Hilton Head Island, and we can’t imagine a better experience. From day one, Sabrina impressed us with her deep knowledge of the local market and her genuine commitment to helping us find the perfect place. She took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for—not just in terms of layout and price, but lifestyle and long-term value. Her insights into different condo communities, amenities, and HOA considerations were incredibly helpful. Sabrina found us the perfect condo at a great price. It checked every box, and we truly feel like we got an incredible value thanks to her knowledge and market savvy. Sabrina was always responsive, honest, and proactive. She guided us through every step—from showings to closing—with professionalism and warmth. Even after the sale, she checked in to make sure we were settling in well and continued to support us with any questions we had. If you're looking for a realtor who knows Hilton Head inside and out and truly puts your needs first, Sabrina is the one. We’re thrilled with our new condo and even more thankful for the experience she gave us."

“Paul successfully marketed and sold two homes for us on Long Island at our asking prices. He is knowledgeable, gave us great advice, and was so easy to work with, not to mention having a great sense of humor! Additionally, he has an extensive knowledge of construction and was able to guide us on needed repairs. I highly recommend him as a sales professional.”

Christina did a fantastic job! She was professional, knowledgeable, and competent throughout the entire process of selling our home. Most importantly, she listened! She "heard" our expectations and offered realistic advice that resulted in a quick and successful sale. She was in constant contact during the sale and even graciously offered assistance on the purchase of our new home. She goes "above and beyond" for her clients. We thoroughly enjoyed working with her and recommend Christina to anyone considering the sale of their home.

Hilton Head Island Seller
Having been close to four previous Hilton Head Island real estate transactions in which Dave was the agent, twice for the Buyer and twice for the Seller, when it came time to sell my own condo on Skull Creek I didn’t give any thought to asking anyone else to help me as the Seller’s agent. Dave has years of experience on the island and he is very aware of the current market. As expected I benefited from his calm and wise guidance during the entire process. Dave was extremely valuable in recommending people to take care of the issues that were identified during inspection. Other businesses that I called ignored my call, but Dave knows reliable people. And where Dave went above and beyond, in my opinion, was that several times when those folks came to take care of an inspection item I was not available to be there – Dave met the trades people and waited while they did the work, or until I was able to arrive. That was a huge help to me. I highly recommend Dave if you are buying or selling a house or condo on Hilton Head Island.

Drew, Kim - We consider you two the dynamic duo. Drew, you are an amazing agent with a huge heart and eye not only for house sales but individuals that enhance the community. Your partner, Kim, is not a happen-chance coworker but truly your complement in selling homes, representing clients and assuring all parties that their wishes are valued. We have experienced 7 sales, but none as professionally orchestrated as 577 Colonial Dr. We thank you for your guidance, advice, representation and all-around friendship as we traversed this whirlwind house sale journey. Best wishes to you.

As an out-of-town seller, I had a wonderful experience selling my villa with Team Elliott! Shelley provided experienced advice and guidance throughout the entire process, and we sold for more than we had even hoped for! We received a FULL PRICE offer within 48 hrs. and closed 30 days later. Team Elliott is my "go-to" team for all future Hilton Head Island real estate transactions! I will refer them to all my friends and family!

Hannah was great to work with. Being a first time homebuyer can be intimidating but she made the process very easy and was great at explaining all the details. Hannah was always very responsive and was awesome at working with hectic work schedules. She even worked on her vacation to make sure we were able to get an offer in on the home we ended up purchasing. It was a pleasure working with Hannah and would highly recommend for anyone looking to purchase a home.

James Wedgeworth did an outstanding job in assisting me with the sale of my home. He provided detailed analyses of the local market and changes in trends. He helped me understand how to best list the property and James helped me evaluate and maneuver through multiple offers. Throughout the entire process, from listing to closing, James and his team were incredibly patient and understanding with me, providing assistance as needed.

Alec Smith was incredible to work with. There were quite a number of challenges that presented themselves in the midst of marketing and selling our property and Alec tackled them head-on. His professional demeanor, knowledge of the area and professional contacts were a huge part in our closing being a success. I would highly recommend him and hope to work with him in the future.

"Matt was tremendous to work with from start to finish in the home buying process. He had great working knowledge and insights into the area, a friendly, professional communication style and took the time to understand what we were looking for and then applied that understanding to the houses he showed us. He expertly negotiated the deal and got the price and terms we wanted in a competitive situation. But what impressed me the most was Matt’s responsiveness - unbelievable throughout the sale process and after. Whether by email, text or phone call, he always quickly got back to us even if it was only to acknowledge the message. So few people do that anymore. We always felt we had a true partner throughout the buying process and we can’t recommend Matt more highly if you need a real estate professional."

Debbie and Daniel Cort are amazing! They are very helpful and walk through the whole process with you. Very responsive and there are no bad questions. I was very impressed with their knowledge of the market and their drive to find exactly what you are looking for. When it came time to make an offer they were right on top of everything and kept us in the loop of all the changes made by the sellers. I highly recommend them as they are very professional and friendly and will find you the home you are looking for.

Rob Moore of Patrick and Taylor Real Estate at Charter One Realty, successfully sold our condo at full asking price.  He was extremely professional, and very easy to deal with. Rob, acting as a sellers agent, made a long distance transaction seamless and uncomplicated.   If ever we need a realtor again,  he would be our first and ONLY choice. Thanks again for a job well done!

My wife and I worked with Marisa on a recent trip to the lowcountry and visited several communities over a couple of days.  The first thing that struck me about Marisa is her thoroughness and organization.  We have worked with other realtors in the past who are a bit scattered and a little slow on follow-up.   Marisa separated herself immediately from those experiences by taking the time to understand us individually and to do a deep dive into our likes/wants in a house.  She then provided a detail itinerary for the two days we were to spend with her. She followed up within minutes many times and was extremely organized over the two days.  Her commitment to doing things the right way really impressed us both as did her knowledge of the communities we visited.  She met every need we had during our time with her, and I would recommend Marisa to anyone looking for a home in the Lowcountry.

Duke and Linda directed the sale of our home in a most professional way.  Their cadre of professionals put together an effective marketing effort that saved us time and removed any doubt about the outcome.   Duke especially is a man of few words, each chosen carefully with truth at their core.  In a profession marked by lots of hype and hoopla, Delcher’s do better.  They deliver results.

"If you are looking for a fantastic realtor then I highly recommend Matt and Kara Raehn! What a team! Both Matt and Kara are reliable, punctual and thorough! They actually listened to our needs and wants. We are from out of state and hoping to find our dream home was like finding a needle in a haystack . The moment we connected on the phone for the first time we felt at ease, and it felt like talking with one of our family members. Last minute we decided to drive 10 hours to meet Matt and Kara to look at a home they found for us. They found it! They found our dream home. Matt met us on a holiday weekend, showed us the house, answered all of our questions and that night we decided we wanted to make an offer but wanted to see it again one more time. Kara met us the very next day to show us the house again and answer more of our questions. We made an offer and it was accepted! Matt and Kara you both helped us in so many ways and we are forever grateful for you both. Thank you for your patience in finding our dream home! We cannot wait to raise our family and make new memories in what now we call our home.”

We would like to say that Brenda [Kline] worked quite hard at selling our home. It was a slow start but as the economy changed so did the interest in our home. She was very good at offering suggestions that worked best for our situation. Brenda was persistent and made it happen. Thank you Brenda!

After renting a winter getaway home in the low country for six years, we decided to take the plunge and purchase a vacation home.  We started our search on the internet, and the very first listing we liked happened to be listed by Rich Reed with Charter One Realty.  This introduction led to us signing on with Rich to guide our search, and was a stroke of good fortune, for Rich is one of the leading brokers in the entire region and knows the markets first-hand.  This in-depth knowledge, coupled with his extensive experience in putting deals together, served us well, as the property we kept coming back to presented us with some challenges.  It was on a beautiful lot with scenic views and had appealing architecture, but it suffered from deferred maintenance and outdated interior finishes which we needed to reflect in our offer.  Rich was particularly helpful with his many local contacts who helped us with various cost estimates, and he also kept our negotiations on track with the seller.  His deal-making expertise proved invaluable as we came to know more about the property’s needs than the seller, which led to some protracted negotiations.  In the end Rich’s patience, persistence, and skill got us over the goal line.  As we worked with Rich it became evident that he understood where we were coming from, and what was most important to us, and he focused on our priorities to get the deal done.  We highly recommend Rich Reed for any low country real estate requirements.

“Sabrina Zeoli stands out from the rest! Having worked with numerous real estate agents nationwide and in Hilton Head Island (HHI), we found Sabrina to be truly the greatest of all time (The GOAT). We were blessed to meet Sabrina at an open house and immediately connected with her. She guided us on an amazing journey that led us to purchase our 30-year dream beach home on HHI! Sabrina is not just a real estate agent; we now proudly call her our friend. Her dedication, expertise, and genuine care made all the difference. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Thank You Sabrina!”

Marisa Cain was a pivotal reason we bought our home. From the beginning, she struck the perfect balance—warm and enthusiastic, yet candid and insightful. We valued these attributes in Marisa, especially being new to the area. After just one morning of touring homes, she quickly honed in on what truly mattered to us. A week later, she had a strong instinct about a new listing and let us know right away. She was absolutely right—it turned out to be the one. Marisa guided us through every step of the process with efficiency and care. She made sure we fully understood each aspect of the home and addressed any potential concerns on our checklist. We always felt she was advocating for us, representing our best interests throughout the entire home buying process. Even after our offer was accepted, Marisa remained hands-on, leading us seamlessly through closing and generously sharing her trusted contacts for services like painting, landscaping, and cleaning. She is a true professional. We wholeheartedly recommend Marisa to anyone looking to buy a home.

Neil [Castellane] handled the sale of my condo, my husband’s condo, and subsequently the purchase of our beautiful new home on the island. Neil walked us through all of the steps and explained things in a way that was easily understandable (even the complicated paperwork). He provided a wealth of information when we had questions, and made excellent recommendations. He was very detail-oriented and told us what to expect, what items of the transaction we would be responsible for in each instance (whether buying or selling), and what kind of timeframe to expect. He kept things moving in a timely manner and was easily accessible when we had questions or needed information. Neil treats you like a PERSON - not a dollar sign, and I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for an agent in the area!
