Christina did a wonderful, professional job selling my mother's house.  The whole process, from signing her listing contract to the closing at the attorney's office, was a breeze...because she knows what she's doing.  She convinced me she would get more money for the sale of the house than I could trying to sell it on my own...and she did!  I was going to be away for the summer and knew I could trust her to take care of anything that might come up.  She took time to do the extra things too...the house was empty, so she did house checks to make sure everything was OK.  She even arranged to have a fallen large tree branch removed from the property.  I have no hesitation in saying you won't be disappointed with her commitment to selling your house.

“Sabrina is a great realtor with local market expertise and five-star service! She took care of everything for our off-site owner from the preparation, listing, closing and after-closing! We are very satisfied with our sale and definitely will recommend her to everyone!”

I asked Christina Forbis to handle the sale of my Port Royal home because I appreciated the way she represented the sellers when I bought my home and because I knew of her outstanding reputation in the community. I was never disappointed. At every point in the sale, she went above and beyond what you might expect from a realtor.  No matter how busy she was, she always made me feel like I was her top priority. Christina provides a concierge level experience, dealing with all issues with grace and professionalism.

We consider ourselves to be some of the luckiest people in the world to have found Shelley and Gary. Their ability to hone in on our wants and needs in a matter of hours of meeting us was amazing. They keyed in on what we were looking for and took us to places that were exactly what we wanted. They are the perfect combination of enthusiasm and practicality. Shelley will find what you want and Gary will tell you how your future home fits on the property. Who could ask for more! They are the best!

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!

"Buying a house with Cort Lifestyle Pros was like having dinner with old friends. They helped us with every step of the process and anticipated our needs. Daniel and Debbie Cort went above and beyond before, during and after our home purchase. We will definitely recommend them to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home.”

Terrific local knowledge! Even better negotiating skills! I will absolutely be using Alec Smith in my future real estate transactions. He was very detailed and organized.

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….

Alec Smith did an outstanding job finding the right buyer for my property. He was very knowledgeable on the area and willing to go the extra mile to show potential buyers the property. He will communicate often to explain market conditions and will guide you to make decisions on price and best steps to get your property sold as fast as possible.

What a journey we’ve been on the last year! We knew that we needed to downsize but we also wanted a nice garden for Lisa. Daniel and Debbie were with us on every step of this journey and they were so generous of their patience with us! Their attention to detail was amazing and their advice was always well thought out. The respect they’ve earned in the community was obvious when dealing with contractors, roofers, plumbers, inspectors, etc. They were always able to get quick and reliable replies. Daniel and Debbie did a wonderful job selling our house and finding our new home. They are an awesome couple and you couldn’t go wrong with the Cort Team.

I have been a real estate investor for over 30 years and would happily recommend Alec Smith. He has been one of the best agents that I have ever worked with. He was professional and helpful from my first phone call to my closing. He is very knowledgeable about the area and will provide you with all the necessary information and contacts to insure that your project will be successful. Happy shopping for your next venture.

Buying our new home with Debbie and Daniel was an unbelievably easy experience! Debbie went above and beyond to make sure every "i "was dotted and every "t" crossed. She and Daniel gave us great advice as to where to buy and who to get as our mortgage processor. A usually daunting experience was turned into a very easy and no stress experience. I HIGHLY recommend these very professional agents to anyone looking to buy a home in the Bluffton/HHI area. A business relationship has turned into a great friendship! Thanks Debbie and Daniel for our new home!!

Christina is a gifted and talented real estate agent. In our experience in both our recent sale of a home and purchase of another one, Christina was not only on top of everything but made sure if there was a repair or something that needed to happen to make the transaction smooth or complete, she always knows just the right person to do the job. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the market on HHI as well as creative in marketing of any home. Christina always made herself available to answer any questions or discuss the progress of our buying or selling transactions.  Christina is by far the BEST realtor we've ever worked with, her professionalism, personality, attention to detail, responsiveness, and ability to close deals were outstanding - both deals! If you are buying or selling a home, do yourselves a favor and hire Christina!

We worked with David and his team on our last 2 homes we purchased and the sale of another. If it wasn’t for David and his infinite relationships in the Hilton Head area, I don’t believe we would have had the opportunity to purchase our current home.  Being new to the Hilton Head area, David was a tremendous help in answering our countless questions. What impressed me the most about David was the time he took to truly understand our preferences and needs and his patience in helping us find the perfect home. I am thrilled to recommend David to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home.

“Exceptionally responsive and handled a challenging timeline well. Helped us find the ideal investment property for our needs/budget. Went above and beyond to help navigate our purchase fully remote; from virtual tour, to inspections, to closing. Excellent for those from the northeast looking for investment properties in the Hilton Head area and understanding the differences in real estate transactions in SC vs. NY/NJ. Highly recommended!”

Monica and the entire team at Herman and Davis proved themselves to be very valuable throughout my recent transaction on Hilton Head. I was buying a type of property that was new to me combined with living out of the area, but having Monica on my side made it a breeze. Monica is extremely knowledgeable about the market, has all the right connections, and her 20+ years of Hilton Head specific experience shows. She made the transaction very smooth and I cannot think of any way it could have been improved. If and when we are ready to list our property, there is no one else we would call. Thank you, Monica!

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.

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!

Daniel and Debbie are an amazing real estate team. Daniel quickly accessed our needs and identified a number of properties that met our investment criteria. In addition, his contacts enabled us to do a quick renovation and secure a great property manager that to date have been extremely beneficial. Debbie was extremely helpful in a number of logistical areas including helping dealing with attorneys and out of state tax issues related to the property. She provided the necessary push when things started to get bogged down. We would highly recommend the Cort Team for anyone’s real estate needs in the Hilton Head area. By far the best real estate experience we have ever had.

We finally made our dream of owning a home in Hilton Head come true! Drew Butler made the process not only smooth but enjoyable. His professionalism and knowledge of the area is unmatched. Living in Ohio, it took a few trips over the years to finally find the right property at the right time and Drew was always helpful, patient, and attentive. No one could ask for more from a realtor. Working with Drew was a true blessing!

"WOW! It was certainly a journey but one worth it with the right realtor. It would be very remiss of me not to pass on how incredibly helpful Debbie and Daniel were to me during my first home buying process. Two individuals that truly care and take their time and are so understanding… incredibly patient, talented and immersive in how communicative they are on the entire spectrum of the process. I am so grateful! Thank you so much Debbie and Daniel!! ”

She is such an HONEST LADY...... and a Beautiful one to boot......Highly recommend Her....

"Julianne has been such a blessing to my grandson & myself through the entire process. I initially contacted her with a million questions about selling and what the market was doing plus some about how to handle an inheritance situation. She walked us through it all, questions and then from the listing to closing. I was overwhelmed by 20+ years of "stuff" and "treasures". If I hit a road block, I could call and she was able to get me back on the correct timeline. She was exceptional from beginning to end. If I were to move back to that area she would be one of the first people I would call."
