More Homes Are Hitting the Market: What Lowcountry Sellers Need to Do Differently in Fall 2026

The Fall 2026 housing market is giving buyers something they have not enjoyed in several years: more choices.
For sellers, that does not mean homes have stopped selling. It means the margin for error has narrowed. A property that is priced accurately, presented beautifully and marketed to the right audiences…

We have worked with Andy Reed for 3 years. He has spent countless hours showing us homes in every neighborhood on Hilton Head, helping us to understand the pluses and minuses of each one. He was patient, he was honest, he was supportive, and he never pressured us to buy. When we did decide to buy, he explained the contract terms carefully and he handled the details. When we had questions, he returned phone calls and emails promptly. Andy was always professional, he represented us fairly and we now have a new friend.

I was the owner of a building lot in the bull Point development. I worked with Alec Smith to sell the property. I chose Alec because he has a lot of experience selling lots at bull Point and he knows the value of most lots because of his experience. Hepriced my lot right and was able to sell it for me in a relatively short period of time. Alec is very professional and very hard-working. I would highly recommend Alec as a real estate agent.

“Sabrina went above and beyond to ensure my relocation from NY to Bluffton would be smooth. She listened to what I thought I wanted (which were two different things) and patiently showed me many options, while being knowledgeable of the area. Sabrina diligently monitored coming soon listings and ultimately did a virtual tour for me – my home that I purchased without ever being in it myself. I was out of state and Sabrina was there for each step of the way. I absolutely trust and recommend Sabrina!”

Alec Smith has been our Realtor in two very successful real estate transactions in the past year, the sale of a spec house and a personal residence. His attention to detail, responsiveness, and ability to navigate thru the demanding sales process are unmatched, and it has been a pleasure working with him.

10 out of 5 Stars! Julianne is the quintessential realtor…leaves no stone unturned in order to consummate the transaction…if you choose someone else, you haven’t chosen the best.

“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.”

Have been working with Richard for about 10 years. He has always been very helpful and very honest. Moved us through the process of buying and sell homes twice over a 7 year period. Could not have been faster to respond to our request to visit a home overnight, which led to us placing a purchase offer within 24 hrs. He placed our house on the market and had a contract in 24 hrs. All matters handled excellently. My wife and I are very happy to be working with Richard.

With his enthusiastic support and uderstanding of my needs, he has helped me to purchase two condos on the sialnd. His vast knowledge of the current market conditions and communities made it easier for me to make an informed decision. Brad is not only a superb Realtor but has now become a great friend.

Charter One Realty, Marisa Cain, my agent and Mary Williams the selling agent were amazing to work with. The communication between agents and then to me was on point and done in a timely manner. I was located in VA so the majority of my experience was done long distance. Everything was handled efficiently through settlement and I couldn’t be happier. I wholeheartedly recommend using Charter One Realty, you won’t regret your decision.

"The ultimate professionals in real estate! I cannot say enough wonderful things about this dynamic duo. Matt possesses extensive knowledge of the market, is a great listener and focused on our specific wants and needs, was patient and accommodating when we shifted our search to different areas and home styles. Kara offered expertise and guidance preparing our home prior to showing. As our agent Matt represented us very well during the contract process, went over and above to make sure our requests were honored. Matt constantly communicated with us from contract signing through closing. Matt and Kara will represent you well!"

"Julianne is the “Gold Standard” of real estate! In Beaufort, SC!! Starting from Day 1 she never took a day off to sell the property. She went above and beyond than any realtor that I’ve come across!! I put it in her hands and it was complete cruise control for me. I would highly recommend that if you are looking to sell in the Beaufort/St.Helena area there is no other choice for a realtor!! Julianne Clark is the Realtor to choose!! A++"

 Drew just helped us buy a home and we are still speaking of his and his team’s professionalism and his ability to listen and put our interests first. We were clearly not just a “commission check.” He was available and extremely knowledgeable about SC real estate. We would ask for his help again in the future and have already recommended him to family and friends.

Our overall experience with Delcher and Delcher was excellent. We really appreciated their market experience, local knowledge and the care and consideration that was put forth in the listing and marketing of our home. As we were abroad during the process, we were kept well informed, and both Linda and Duke were always available, pleasant and extremely professional. Highly recommended.

OUTSTANDING! From the start Tammy Moody’s knowledge of the inventory, pricing and challenging market provided us with extremely helpful advice and guidance every step of the way. She ensured that we understood all aspects involved in selling our home. Tammy helped us through some times when we had doubts and endless questions that all sellers have. Our home sold and we were thrilled. All we can say is high marks for Tammy and the Charter One Team.

My husband Chuck and I decided to build a new home at Belfair. Given that the new home was supposed to be completed by the Fall of 2020, we had to select a realtor to sell our existing home at 45 Newberry Court. The decision was a pretty easy one as we had many friends who highly recommended that we use Diana Sroufe. Diana lives at Belfair and knows the real estate market inside and out. She recommended that we put the house on the market in the first quarter of 2020, about 6 months prior to completion of the new home. From the start, Diana worked tirelessly to help us prepare our home for sale and we had quite a bit of interest early on, including a few offers, none of which panned out. Then Covid hit and put an abrupt halt to the all-important spring selling season. Throughout this time, Diana continued to market our home and to provide positive encouragement that with patience our home would sell. As soon as the Fall hit, the real estate market took off with a vengeance. Diana became super busy with many listings, but she still made us feel that our home was the one she had listed. We finally accepted an offer in October and Diana was with us right through closing in November. We have been thrilled with Diana’s knowledge of the real estate industry and her professionalism throughout the real estate transaction process. She is also a fellow golfer and a friend. We can’t imagine using any other realtor to represent us if/when we decide to enter the real estate market in the future.

We have executed multiple transactions with Andy as both buyers and sellers. He is, without question, the most thorough, well researched, and intelligent minds you will find in real estate, anywhere, not just in Sea Pines. He combines a conscientious, service-based style, with a keen business sense and impressive marketing skills. Any transaction we ever do will be with Andy Reed. If you’re smart, you will too.

The Elliotts are quite the team!!! They work extremely well together and never leave a stone unturned. After selling several homes over 50 years, they, without a doubt, provided the best service of any realtor I have previously used. I would not hesitate to call on them again myself or to recommend them to others.

Selling a house is not easy for the seller or their agent. Emotions, economics, and the many variables in between can make for a stressful situation all around. Thankfully, we had Diana (first as our longtime friend then as our agent) to guide us through the process with resounding success. From pricing to staging to negotiating, Diana was always there for us. Her work ethic and attention to detail are second-to-none. Diana got us the price we were looking for and was a very effective liaison between us and the eventual buyer. Heck, she even arranged for some of our furnishings to be sold at auction after the transaction closed! And did we mention she knows Belfair better than anyone on the planet?! Thank you Diana for helping us start a new chapter in our lives….

Andy Reed at the Reed Team has helped me with 3 properties since I have been buying property in Hilton Head. The first one was when we wanted to sell our property in Sea Pines to build another house. Andy did a fantastic job of determining what we needed to do- to sell the house and then how the house would best show. Small things to us as buyers, but only items that a “Good Realtor” would know: some of the things Andy helped us with: “cut some limbs so you can see the house better” “Power-wash the house so it is clean” Things that to a seller, we really didn’t notice, but to someone, like Andy – he knew what it would take to sell the house! Our house sold in about 3 weeks! Man we were surprised! Then on to the building process, that Andy helped us find a builder and helped us review the floor plan to determine the best house we could build (by the way he wasn’t even making a commission). Although, I guess Andy knows how to keep a customer – because since Andy had helped us so much on the last sell, we asked him to be our Realtor on a purchase we made in order to live – until our house was built. NOW we are in our DREAM HOME and have Andy to help us sell our other house. Andy is always available and helpful in anything you ask him!!! Thanks Andy for a job well done!

We have known Diana for many years and have found her to be extremely engaged as a realtor on a number of fronts. Her low keyed, engaging manner, allows her to be herself, and work in the best interest of her clients.One of the greatest assets Diana has is her ability to completely understand the needs of both the sellers whom she represents, and the buyers she meets, to grasp the salient aspects of what it may take to consummate a sale. In so doing, she works diligently on behalf of the seller to deliver on the faith that they have placed in her to represent them, but also makes every effort with a buyer to understand their needs and what needs to be done to finalize a deal.As is often the case in intricate Real Estate transactions, the “devil is in the details”. Diana, is very focused and detail oriented, which allows her to anticipate potential “roadblocks to a sale” and develop the means early on in the “sales process”, to remove any potential obstacles to a successful sale.In our most recent experience with Diana, she kept us informed with “daily updates” and made a number of recommendations relative to how we might enhance our ability to insure a successful sale. Following her recommendations, we were able to obtain a significant offer within 3 days of placing our home on the market!On balance, as noted above, there is none better, on a number of fronts, than Diana Sroufe!

I cannot say enough great things about Debbie and Daniel! #1 thing is that they were everything they presented themselves to be. They were incredible guides to my wife and I as we looked for and bought our first home. They're so helpful - they really put our wishes at the forefront of everything they did and went above and beyond. 10 out of 10 - I would go through the process again with them.
