"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."

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.

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.

"This is our 2nd time working with Richard and had another excellent working experience with him! He is EXTREMELY knowledgeable about real estate in the low country and helped steer our decisions in literally every step of the way in the process of selling our home. He is reliable, trustworthy, easy to work with, very reputable and just a genuinely great guy who everyone knows, appreciates and respects on Hilton Head Island. Definitely made this whole process for us seamless and easy. Best decision to work with him again, ever. And when we sell or buy in the future, will absolutely call him immediately. He’s truly the best. Can’t recommend him enough! "

We have worked with Michael Haire on three property transactions. He is by far the most professional, helpful real estate professional we have ever encountered. He has earned our trust and proven himself to be an invaluable partner. We strongly recommend anyone looking for a high quality real estate professional to select Michael to help them with their real estate needs.

"Matt and Kara [Raehn] were a pleasure to meet and work with! Although the majority of the time we corresponded with them from afar, how genuine they are and their ability to listen and understand our needs, made us feel comfortable and certain that they had our best interest at heart. In combination with their vast local knowledge of the Bluffton/Hilton Head area, they are top notch agents and we'd confidently recommend them to anyone looking to relocate!"

My wife and I recently purchased a resale home in Latitude Margaritaville, Hilton Headed. The whole experience from beginning, to our new beginning, was exceptional. Our realtor and neighbor, Brenda Kline was professional, informative, respectful, responsive and fun. She truly made the process and transition an easy one. Thank you Brenda. Living in paradise began with you.

Richard was wonderful to work with, start to finish. Always prepared, responsive, prompt and took as much time with us as we needed. He was very knowledgeable about all aspects of the sale of our house, we had complete confidence in his advice.

"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."

Tom Defazio was always available on short notice to show us properties we were interested in. Over a period of several months he was responsive to our changing property wish list and desired locations. In the end he helped us secure the right property in a great location. We recommend him without hesitation.

Tom is a true professional. Great knowledge of the local market. Kept us informed every step of the way. Was a big part of why our house sold for above asking price in just one day.

"We can't thank Shelley and Gary enough for all of their help finding us our dream home! These days with inventory moving so quickly, by the time you see something out there on the real estate sites it is usually already gone. Shelley and Gary worked tirelessly (and I'm not just saying that, I mean tirelessly!) to find us this home that finally checked every one of our boxes, and there were a number of boxes! Shelley and Gary were super patient with our quest to find the perfect spot and I think enjoyed when we found the perfect home as much as we did! They were very helpful with our many many questions along the way and even though we have gone through the process of purchasing a home a few times before it always helps to have someone there to guide you through the process."

Charles Sampson of Charter One Realty in Hilton Head recently helped my husband and me find a condo to purchase in Hilton Head. He was very personable and very professional and, after touring many properties, we found the perfect one for our family. He helped us so much with all the things we needed to do and it was one of our easiest closings ever. He is also wonderful with service after the sale. We recently had some packages delivered to our condo and when the person who was scheduled to meet the delivery people didn’t show up, Charles graciously went to the condo to take care of the situation. We highly recommend Charles Sampson to anyone needing a realtor in the Hilton Head area.

Linda was very thorough and followed up and stayed on top of the timeline to make sure everything stayed on schedule, and help find out answers to all my questions. I would highly recommend Linda if buying or selling a home!

My husband Jim and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Andy, having first bought a beautiful condominium and more recently our dream home. Andy has been courteous, efficient, and respect­ful. He has made the often times difficult job of buying real estate easy. His knowledge of HHI real estate is well founded. We would highly recommend Andy to our friends and anyone looking for their special place on the island.

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.

“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.”

A true team approach from the first meeting through the closing. They are all excellent communicators and go far beyond what I have experienced during other residential transactions. They are without question the best real estate firm I have had the pleasure of working with. I am so happy after interviewing three local realtors that we chose H&D!

“Working with Sabrina was the highlight of my moving experience. I was only able to visit houses with her for one day, but she made the most of that time and was really able to home in on exactly what I wanted. Over the next couple months as I worked to sell my home in New Jersey, Sabrina sent me emails of current listings tailored to every detail I had mentioned during our one day together. When the listing for my house came up I wasn't able to make the trip down to see it myself. Sabrina did a virtual walk-through with me and gave me her honest opinion that she thought this house could be the right fit. I trusted her so much that I bought my house site-unseen! Throughout it all Sabrina was kind, professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. She made my home buying experience a breeze, which was much appreciated since my home selling experience in New Jersey was a nightmare. I would highly recommend Sabrina to anyone looking to buy a home in the Hilton Head/Bluffton area.”

Becky and her team have done two Real Estate transactions for us. She is professional, honest , competent and very caring. She is responsive and her team or she always answer questions, and return calls in a timely fashion. I can't imagine ever buying or selling without her as our advocate. Many thanks for everything!!!

"Mark has been wonderful to work with. He's always professional, candid and friendly. Whenever we had questions or needs throughout the process of selling our home he was able to help immediately, and if he didn't have an answer right away, he worked hard to find the answer. Mark really stood out with his professionalism throughout the entire process, even when other parties were being less than professional in our dealings. We really appreciate everything Mark did to help us sell our home. Thank you!"

We enjoyed a warm and welcoming feeling from The Reed Team. Andy really listened to what our dreams were, and then showed us how to make them come true ...with absolutely no pressure. It is also interesting to note, that even after our purchase, he continues to offer support, updating us on other HHI opportunities, new restaurants and community news. We look forward to visiting HHI, and know we have a friend there when we arrive.

Drew's expertise in the Hilton Head market led us to Windmill Harbour several years ago, and so when it came time to sell, we never hesitated to put our home in his hands.  From the beginning, Drew led the effort.  He sat us down and provided sound advice on price in the current marketplace.   Drew brought in a stager to present the home in the best light possible, and then produced a breathtaking brochure.  He worked tirelessly to get us 30 showings and several offers in this tight market.  He followed up with buyer agents as well as my wife and me on a constant basis.  Drew and his staff went above and beyond our already high expectations, and in the end, we closed seven weeks after we listed with an all- cash sale.

We were referred to Christina Forbis by a friend and as soon as we met her we knew that she was going to be awesome and the one who we wanted to work with! Her professionalism is exceptional, her enthusiasm even better! She truly cared about our lives and listened to our goals, as we trusted her suggestions and honest advise. Christina was extremely prepared, experienced and determined, handling every detail and situation with attention and respect. Throughout our experience Christina went above and beyond to help us in every way which made our experience a pleasant and successful one.  She managed our home when it snowed, organized a home furniture sale, and guided us at every junction to make this sale happen, and in the end also aided in the purchase of condo! We appreciate everything she did for us and would highly recommend Christina, our new friend, to anyone interested in selling or buying! She made it fun!
