Alec has been absolutely wonderful! It took us awhile to find the home we wanted and he was extremely patient and knowledgeable.. And definitely went out of his way to help us in any way he can could! We highly recommend him!!!

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!

Alec [Smith] is a true professional realtor. He's very knowledgeable about the Low Country/Beaufort area and has great suggestions for service providers. We had a few challenges. But, Alec was a great communicator who kept us informed and guided us along the way. He was by our side giving encouragement during the whole process. Alec goes above and beyond what one should reasonably expect from their realtor. We highly recommend working with Alec.
Alan R.Seller
Chip helped us sell our home and we could not recommend him highly enough. Clearly knows the local market and all the relevant players which was a huge advantage for us. And he always went above and beyond helping us as out of town owners -- even something as menial as moving furniture in/out of storage he was more than willing to help us with himself. We also had a great experience with the rest of the team getting the marketing materials prepared and published in really short order. Give Chip a call if you need help buying or selling a home!

“For someone who’s never bought a house before, I was very fortunate to have Daniel and Debbie for a team. Between Daniel showing me home after home and Debbie’s updates on the backend of everything, they made the process of buying a home stress-free.”
Steve TwaitHilton Head Island
Monica was terrific in our search for our home. In a competitive market, her excellent insight and strategy helped us secure the home of our dreams. She also prepped us for selling our townhome which sold for top dollar the day it was listed. We highly recommend her for buying or selling on Hilton Head Island.
Lance and SharonSellers - 16 Prospect Lane, Berkeley Hall
Duke and Linda Delcher recently sold our home in Berkeley Hall. They were very good at marketing the home with top notch advertising and photography for the property. Their support staff at Charter One Realty was also very professional. When issues arose during the negotiations and closing, they were quick to respond.
John Kelley
Carolyn Welch is an amazing real estate broker. She is incredibly knowledgeable and equally as responsive. She also showed great patience and was a great resource for finding an attorney, lender and all things related to a real estate purchase. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to purchase property in the Bluffton/Hilton Head area.
Jillian and Damon Burton & Jo Ann Lyons Hilton Head Island
We recently purchased a home in Hilton Head Island. We are moving from out of state so that presented its own set of problems. The transaction couldn’t have gone smoother. Let me start by saying we have bought and sold several properties and normally don’t use a realtor. When we purchase our next few rentals on the island we will absolutely use Christina Forbis. She thought of everything, she was responsive, kind, genuine, honest, and upfront. She knows how to do her job and then exceeds your expectations. You are in good hands if you choose Christina as your realtor. Her knowledge of the area is priceless.
Satisfied Client
James [Wedgeworth] brought a lifetime of experience and knowledge to bear when selling our home. In addition, James has assembled a team of professionals around him to make the process efficient and most productive. When you hire James and his team you eliminate a great deal risk in the process

We had a really great experience working with Diana Sroufe from Charter One. She was very professional, always responsive and kept us informed of everything all along the way. She has great knowledge of homes in the area and what buyers are looking for. Also she has a great network of service providers to help you through your sale and move. She did an excellent job listing our home with beautiful pictures and made sure to be on the premises at each showing to answer questions. We were so glad she represented us in selling our home. D Breunsbach
Whether you are buying or selling, Diana Sroufe is the “go to” realtor in Bluffton and the Lowcountry! In our case, she hit home runs for us on both the buy- and sell-side. Diana successfully sold our first home in Belfair for a premium price and worked with us to negotiate the purchase of another beautiful home in the same community. Both transactions required a shrewd understanding of the market dynamics and the “unique selling proposition” of each home. Diana worked with us to showcase our former home and, via FaceTime with out-of-state buyers, made the sale and quickly closed the deal. She also went above and beyond the call of duty to bring a challenging negotiation for our new home purchase to a satisfactory conclusion. We would not have closed that transaction without Diana. Also, as wonderful as Diana is, I’d like to give a shout out to her team at Charter One whose help was invaluable. You can’t go wrong with Team Sroufe!
Dick and Meg S. – Sellers of 21 Balmoral Place - December 2024
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.
Linda was fantastic - knowledgeable, very responsive and very professional. She made finding our dream home and selling our current vacation home an absolute breeze. Linda did an excellent job helping us sale our property on View Point Circle. She was a pleasure to work with and I will recommend her to others if buying or selling in Beaufort.
Dan & Debbie H. – Sellers of 36 Wiler’s Creek Way – July 2024
Drew Butler did an outstanding job selling our home. This was the 3rd home that we sold with Drew as our agent. We had previously bought 2 homes with the help of Drew. Drew is very detail oriented, and we think that really helps sell the home. This latest home was only on the market for a short time, and we got our asking price! If I was buying or selling a house in Indigo Run Hilton Head Island, I would use Drew as my agent!

“Paul worked real hard to sell our place when the time came he had to. He worked on our behalf to sell it. He was very easy to get a hold of any time I needed him. I would use him again.“
Annie AndrewsHampton Hall Seller & Rose Hill Buyer
“My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with Matt and Kara on the sale of our home and the purchase of a lot in a different neighborhood. Matt and Kara are a dream to work with! Their approach is a balance of listening to your wants/needs and using their expert knowledge to offer excellent direction, advice, and feedback. They are proactive, diligent, trustworthy, and professional, but above all they are kind and a joy to spend time with!! They went above and beyond, and the whole experience has been better than we could have expected! We would recommend them to anyone, and everyone looking to buy or sell in the Lowcountry!”
Christina Forbis ClientHilton Head Island
Choosing Christina Forbis to assist us with purchasing a home on Hilton Head Island was the best decision we could have made.
Over the years we have used the services of a number of listening and selling agents; Christina was, by far, the best we have ever encountered.
Christina exceeded all of our expectations with her advice, counsel, professionalism, service and responsiveness. As an example, Christina educated and counseled us on the current flood elevation laws, and the effect of a homes elevation on flood insurance rates. In addition, she did not hesitate to give us her opinion when she believed a home was not fairly priced in relations to its true market value.
She was there for us every step of the way, helping with even the smallest details. Even after closing, when most agents are nowhere to be found, Christina assisted us with other details, too many to identify here.
Should there be a future need, we would enthusiastically use Christina’s services again, and we highly recommend that anyone either purchasing or listing their home, partner with Christina.
“I have bought and sold 8 homes in my lifetime and Sabrina is by far the best Real Estate Agent I have ever experienced. My last purchase was in a very competitive market with multiple offers being presented on each home we were interested in. Sabrina was always there providing us guidance on each and every house we bid on. Although it took us several months to find our dream home, in the end we purchased our home for a fair value. In addition to her great negotiating skills, she helped navigate us through a difficult and challenging mortgage loan process. Near the end she even escalated to the Vice President of the bank to push our loan across the finish line. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home in Hilton Head Island SC. She is simply the best.”
Joan & SteveSellers - Rose Dhu Creek Plantation
Steve and I are so happy that we selected Shelley and Gary to sell our home in Rose Dhu Creek Plantation. We have been married 50 years and over that period of time we have purchased and sold 17 homes. The process of buying and selling real estate is very familiar to us and it is without hesitation, that we can say that Gary and Shelley are the best, most professional and experienced agents we have ever met. When anyone was in our home, they were always in attendance to answer any questions and assure that showings and inspections were concluded with optimum results. They facilitated the process of moving far beyond what one should expect from real estate agents. We hired Shelley and Gary based on a recommendation from a neighbor and friend and so glad that we did.
Tim and Lisa Hilton Head Island
Christina Forbis has her pulse on the real estate market and worked tirelessly to make our dream come true. We highly recommend Christina – she is the “go to” realtor on the island!
Bob and Patricia RyderSellers - Colleton River
Having the both of you as part of our “Team” always gave us a sense of confidence throughout the process. Your warm welcoming demeanor, your marketing strategies, your expertise and insights regarding Colleton enabled us to meet our goals stress free and in a timely manner. We know that when we return to Colleton to purchase our next home, our expectations and needs will once again be fulfilled by a winning team of real estate agents.

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.
Brett T.Bluffton
Working with Debbie Cort was absolutely seamless and perfect. Our Family needed to relocate to the area from Florida and we had no idea where to start looking for our new home. My wife sent an email regarding a property we might be interested in and Debbie responded immediately! We shared our lifestyle and current type of home we owned to help Debbie show us the best neighborhood to suit us in the shortest time frame. After 2-3 trips from Florida to look at our home buying options we landed on a beautiful home in Bluffton with the amenities that were exactly to our needs! Without Debbie Cort we wouldn't have been able to make our move happen so smooth. And we have built a great friendship along the way. Debbie puts her heart and soul into the entire process. And was always available for any questions that came up. Thanks Debbie and Dan!
Carrissa McLaughlinSavannah, GA
Finding a realtor while home hunting from out of town can be challenging, however, Hannah made the process easy. She made herself available whenever we needed to come see homes (even the day of her daughter’s 3rd birthday party). She kept great communication throughout the whole process, staying on top of everything that came our way with our new construction home. Whether you’re buying or selling, out of town or local, choosing Hannah for your realtor will make the whole process a lot smoother.

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.
Judy and Glen TerbeekHilton Head Island
When we decided to move to Hilton Head, we were told the only real estate agents to use were the Reed Team. After buying and selling four properties using them, we couldn’t agree more.
They know the market extremely well. In addition, they really tried to learn our goals, and then match properties to meet those goals. Our first property was an ocean front house, that we rented for 3 years until we tore it down to build our dream house. The advice we were given by the Reed Team during that time proved to be right on. The other transactions were for investment reasons, and they all exceeded our goals as well.
There are three things we especially liked about dealing with the Reed Team; first, they would tell us exactly how they felt about a property, and actually steered us away from some we liked. Secondly, they have a very practical, common sense approach about real estate deals. And thirdly, they worked hard on building long-term relationships, they weren’t just transaction processors. They stayed very involved during escrow and way past the closings, ensuring that the deal got done to our satisfaction.
We only wish they had an office in southern California when we relocated here.
Wilson Natalie AnneSeabrook, SC
Alec Smith was absolutely fantastic to work with. He far exceeded my expectations on the time it would take to sell my family’s land. In addition, he consistently kept me informed and the entire transaction could have not gone more smoothly. I highly recommend him.

Dawn M.Bluffton
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.
Lisa, Daughter of Sellers
The Elliott Team did an amazing job and deserves all the accolades and praise for their outstanding work, attention to detail, and dedication to our transaction! I cannot express enough, my gratitude in all you have done to take care of my parents through this entire process. Shelley, Gary & Allison did so much to make this transaction flow so smoothly...down to every last detail. I could not have asked for or picked a better team to help out...you are an amazing group!
