Marisa and Diana were an absolute pleasure to work with throughout our home-buying process. We had a very condensed amount of time ‘on the ground’ in Bluffton, and Marisa was incredibly efficient. She quickly understood what we were looking for and gave great advice (not just what we wanted to hear), and pre-screened properties sometimes faster than they were even on the market. We have bought and sold many properties over the years – Marisa’s ability to understand what was important to us and what would appeal to us was unparalleled when compared to our previous experiences.  Marisa and Diana’s advice about the market, quality of construction and other pros/cons of various properties was indispensable and helped us tremendously in our decision process.  Marisa is very matter-of-fact in negotiations and helped come to practical solutions so that we reached an agreement quickly with the buyer.  She kept the process moving forward throughout the period leading up to the closing, and made sure that nothing slipped through the cracks – she was always one or two steps ahead of everyone!  She also has great network of service providers and was able to quickly arrange things like inspections, and happy to help painters and other contactors get access to the property during the period up to the closing.    While Marisa and Diana are amazing professionals, the best part about working with them is the personal side. You can tell that they really care about their clients from all aspects – and I know that while we won’t be clients anymore, we already have two very good friends at our new home!

Our experience with the Delchers in buying a new home and then selling ours was terrific! We decided to check out the real estate market in Berkeley Hall, where we were currently living, and called the Delchers about a listed home.  We chose the Delchers because of their fine reputation in the real estate market in our area. However, that particular home did not turn out to be the home for us.  We did not need to move, so we told Duke and Linda we only wanted something we fell in love with. They called a few weeks later and said they’d found the perfect house for us .......and it was!  We’re now the proud new owners of that property. Next came the sale of our current home.  Linda and Duke were so helpful.  Their marketing strategies were terrific. They made a lovely brochure featuring the various rooms and amenities of our home.  A number of agents showed our home, and within a short time we had an offer. Linda also was very helpful in guiding us through the closing process, the property inspections, and finding us a move manager who also found us a mover.  Once the ball was rolling, the whole process was seamless!  We would strongly recommend the Delchers to anyone in the Bluffton/ HiltonHead  area planning to buy or sell a home.

Our experience with Christina Forbis in purchasing a house on Hilton Head Island couldn’t have been better! Her ability to dial in a house for our needs, and point us in the right direction was fantastic. During the process of closing on the house,  her communication was outstanding in solving any problems. After we purchased the house, her help and guidance in selecting the right contractors for our remodel needs was invaluable. It certainly helps to have a person who is dialed in on Hilton Head Island!

Daniel and Debbie are super people who made our house purchase process a breeze. They were always very responsive and made us feel that we were their only client. Debbie and Daniel are courteous and very professional which is not always easy to find. You will not go wrong with this awesome team.

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.

My husband and I met Linda 4 years ago and at that time I knew that if we didn't buy then we would someday. Fast forward to 2024 and we've quickly caught up, picked up where we left off and began the search for our next home and community. I still can't believe we found a property, made an offer, and had an acceptance in under two days! We appreciate all your help in the search for our newly purchased property and we are so excited to build our dream home. Your attention to details and knowledge of the community made the process easy, and we couldn't be happier we chose to work with you. We truly appreciated your flexibility, and willingness to accommodate our schedules knowing that we are not from the area and needed to fly in since we currently live so far away. You were terrific to create an agenda that maximized our time with the best result ever a property that we absolutely adore!

"We are so happy we chose Brenda Kline from Charter One Realty for the purchase of our new home. Her knowledge of the area made answering all of our questions so easy and informative.  Her patient approach to an otherwise stressful event made everything run smoothly. I would absolutely recommend Brenda for all your real estate services."

We recently sold a property and had the pleasure of working with Sabrina. She is extremely knowledgeable in the process and was quite helpful in all aspects of our transaction. She made herself available to us, whenever we needed. She is energetic and enthusiastic and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend her services and we look forward to working with her in the future. We look forward to working with her again in the future.

As soon as I met Christina I felt completely confident in her knowledge and expertise as a Realtor. Christina provided sound advice for listing my house. The sale of toy home was well beyond what I could have ever imagined.

It was serendipity that brought us together with Marisa as we began our exploration of the Lowcountry and Bluffton area, in general.  And it all blossomed from there. Marisa is fun and friendly, which make long days of touring communities and houses a whole lot more enjoyable. And she is extremely knowledgeable about the area and the process. We truly enjoyed her approach of introducing us first to the communities and helping us narrow down the list of choices to a much more manageable subset. She took the time to get to know us and try to understand how we described our likes and wants, so she could help us to first identify the community that is right for us. And she explained why this is an important step in the process.  Because we were coming in from out of town, she did a very nice job of being our “boots on the ground“. Marisa is also very professional and helped us through the entire home buying process. As others have noted, her service and care extended beyond signing the contract, as she helped us with utilities, with ideas about where to purchase furniture, etc. We are pleased to call Marisa a friend, now, and highly recommend her.

My husband and I have worked with James Wedgeworth on four separate real estate transactions. James has done an excellent job each time and we have always been extremely happy with the results. His knowledge of the area and his many years of experience made it easy to work with him. He was always able to answer are questions and put our minds at ease. In addition, his staff were always responsive, efficient, and pleasant to work with. We feel confident in working with James and would not use another realtor.

I could not give Christina Forbis a higher recommendation to be your real estate agent  It was a very, very difficult decision to put our family home up for sale.  Thankfully, we listened to a recommendation to talk with Christina.  It very quickly became apparent that she was the person to help us.  Not only did she fully grasp all aspects of the real estate market, but truly empathized with the emotional impact to our family to have to say goodbye to a place we all loved. We live out of state and needed a person that had superior customer service and was a good communicator.  Christina was with us every step of the way and kept us regularly informed on the status of the sale.  Christina also carefully and masterfully guided us in each step of the sale.  From setting the selling price, staging of the home, navigating thru multiple offers and bringing the accepted offer to a closed sale.  She was excellent in negotiations with prospective buyers and helped us to obtain the best possible price on the sale. Christina also has excellent contacts in the area and referred us to several individuals that were professional, nice to work with, and important links to help with the sale of the home.   In summary, Christina is not only a top-tier real estate agent in all business aspects, but also a professional and fantastic person to work with.

We recently sold our house with Drew Butler. The process was very successful from start to finish. Drew brought the data which made the pricing decision easy, his suggestions to “ready” the house for buyers was effective and not overly complicated. We had early showings and a buyer in several days at full price. Drew and his assistant, Kim Burke, were helpful through the inspection and follow-up. They were great at communications right up through the closing. It is extremely helpful that Drew knows Indigo Run and all the reasons it is the place to be on Hilton Head.

Mark Rushton was a great help in purchasing my first home. He helped me through the process while out of state in a different time zone. He even went as far as replacing the old refrigerator in the house himself. He knows the area and I ended up buying a house recommended by him that I was unaware of. I would recommend him as a real estate agent.

As first time homebuyers and now owners! We were beyond grateful for how Sander’s helped us during this process and how he made a way for us against all odds (LITERALLY: market being crazy high, outside of our budget, and the island being in such high demands) somehow, sanders made a miracle take place for us and we are truly grateful! Sanders was also incredibly communicative and very articulate in helping us understand the process from beginning to end. Honestly, the professionalism exceeded our expectations and we wouldn’t have wanted to be with any other realtor!

We couldn’t have asked for a better team to work with in both selling our house and closing on a new, downsized home. Incredibly responsive and organized from day 1 - we truly felt like they were on our team, working hand in hand with us to find the best overall situation for our family. We would definitely work with the Corts again, and we would recommend them to anyone searching for a home or selling a home in the Bluffton area.

Multiple friends recommended that we contact Christina Forbis to sell our home on Hilton Head Island, and we are so glad that they did. Christina provided us with valuable advice on the pricing of our home, because she knows the market so well. She negotiated to sell our home for more than we expected. She sold the house the first day that it was on the market. She added clauses to the standard contract that benefited us greatly.  This is the first time that we have sold a home (even though we are in our seventies) and she held our hands every step of the way.  She is truly a professional full service broker.  Plus, she is a fine person.  Christina has our highest recommendation.

When moving to Beaufort and deciding we wanted to buy instead of continuing to rent, we met Alec. Alec helped us buy our first home and was the best realtor anybody could ask for. It was a home we wanted to keep forever, but upon receiving a job offer on the other side of the country we turned to him once more to help us sell our home. Once again, Alec exceeded our expectations and helped us sell our home and get the best deal possible. He works around the clock and is always available anytime you need him during the process. His knowledge of the local area and of the home buying/selling process is unparalleled. I honestly cannot imagine using a different realtor because Alec made both buying and selling our home as stress free as possible so that we could focus on other aspects of our move and life. I highly recommend you get in contact with Alec to buy or sell your home. It will be one of the best decisions you ever make. Thanks again for everything Alec!

“Ethan did an outstanding job assisting us with the purchase of our new home. Since we weren’t familiar with the area, his local expertise was both valuable and greatly appreciated. He was consistently responsive and guided us through every aspect of the process—especially impressive given that much of the transaction was handled remotely. Ethan went above and beyond during the closing process. He and his team maintained clear and constant communication, keeping us informed every step of the way. He offered thoughtful advice and recommendations we wouldn’t have considered on our own. Ethan was friendly, professional, and accommodating throughout. He even took the time to provide helpful referrals for landscaping, handyman, and contracting services—an added bonus that made settling in much easier. We’re truly grateful for his support and highly recommend his services.”

Not all Realtors are created equal, which is why we chose Marvin Hall, the BEST in the Lowcountry. We recently relocated to Bluffton, SC, and engaged Marvin Hall of Charter One Realty to represent us in our real estate purchase. Prior to our arrival, we spoke with Marvin and gave him our list of wants and needs. Marvin listened carefully to our requirements, prepared a tailored selection of properties for us to view, and efficiently guided us to a successful contract. Marvin demonstrated thorough knowledge of South Carolina real estate regulations, taxes, and community fees. He negotiated effectively and represented us admirably. We highly recommend Marvin Hall for your next home sale or purchase.

We've known Andy Reed and his team for at least 20 years and have always respected and appreciated Andy's professionalism and knowledge. We consider him to be an expert and our go-to resource with regards to Hilton Head real estate. We were selling our lot in Long Cove in the midst of Hurricane Matthew, so it was a much more complex transaction than the typical lot sale. Andy exercised unbelievable patience, skill and diplomacy to both locate a buyer and agree to terms that worked for everyone. We would highly recommend Andy and his team for any real estate needs.

"Matt was a pleasure to work with on our most recent home purchase. Buying a property from out of state can be stressful but he helped the process go smoothly and answered all our questions. Matt set up home searches tailored to our needs, visited the property in advance, and showed us around the beautiful low country. He checked in during all stages and was very responsive to our texts/emails. He also provided recommendations for all of our other home buying needs. We would definitely recommend Matt if you are looking to buy/sell in the Lowcountry area."

Incredibly seasoned, helpful and friendly. No detail escaped Richard MacDonald and he did a magnificent job of listing and selling our home in Hilton Head. Richard's long experience with real estate on the Island worked to our advantage. Very easy to work with as well.
