My husband and I have bought and sold a condo on HHI with Shelley and Gary. Both transactions were seamless. I was particularly impressed with the pricing of our condo. I thought it was a risk because it was $30k over what I thought we should list for. So glad I listened to Gary. We received a full price, cash offer the day our property went on the MLS. They know the market!!!!! Shelley and Gary took care of everything for us. They were always available to talk and kept us updated throughout the process. My husband and I joke that we feel like we are their only customers. They make the real estate process pleasurable by going above and beyond for each transaction. I can't imagine using anyone else for my real estate needs.
"Matt and Kara [Raehn] are great! They recently planned a day with us to show us the area and multiple properties and neighborhoods. It was obvious that they listened to what was important to us, and scheduled a great day. We learned a lot from them. Their follow up has been impeccable and on point. It is great to work with true professionals."
Hannah was extremely helpful throughout the process. She was there for every stage of the process and made sure everything was ready for us.
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.
Steve was amazing. He lined up multiple showings for us on several days when we were in HHI for a limited number of days. He made sure to explain the amenities of the different plantations. After we left without finding our dream home, Steve kept looking. He sent us several homes to review and even went house hunting with my sister. They called one day and told us they had found our home. We toured with them via video. Stave suggested an off er contingent on our seeing the home in person. The offer was accepted the next morning and we hit the road. Just as Steve said, our home looks even better in person than in the photos. Thanks so much Steve, without you, we would still be looking.
“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!”
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.
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!
Drew Butler is the most professional real estate person we have used. He is very personable. Living in various plantations on Hilton Head Island gives him expert knowledge about property on the island. His expertise in knowing property value and how to market property so that it sells is #1. Drew listed our property and the second person that looked at our property purchased it. If you have property to sell or if you are interested in purchasing property on beautiful Hilton Head Island, Drew Butler is your agent!
"I have experienced several moves over the years and this most recent move was the most challenging. I interviewed three realty firms and there was no contest. Austin Stokes and Ethan James, the Ethan James Team, of Charter One came to meet me ready to listen to my expectations and with a very professional presentation of how they wanted to market my home and were as interested as I in getting my home sold. Austin promised me he would help me in any way I needed from start to finish. This was more than just a sales pitch, a nice gesture. He has taken boxes for donations, trash bags out, and checked in often to see if I needed help with anything. He meant every word. Austin and Ethan are the knowledgeable, hardworking, professional gentlemen to whom you want to trust the buying or selling of your home."
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.
Based on recommendations from several friends as well as personal knowledge, we chose Christina Forbis as our realtor. She worked with us throughout every aspect of the sale of our home. Christina proved to be the ultimate professional and the best in the business. Her intimate knowledge of the Port Royal marketplace combined with her attention to every detail and her willingness to “go the extra mile”, led to a successful sale from listing through closing within 30 days. There is no doubt in our minds that Christina is the realtor you want to be with in the sale of your home. She is simply beyond compare!
We highly recommend Les Jones for realtor services. He recently helped us purchase a home and we were both impressed and appreciative of his highly professional services. He listened closely to our interests and performed diligent research to identify several options. Then, he worked closely with our calendars to schedule property viewings. He provided valuable insight about the various locations and had great recommendations for navigating the closing process. We hope to work with him again in the future.
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!
The BEST agents we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with were Gary & Shelley Elliott with Charter One Realty. They made the whole process from start to finish a pleasurable and easy experience. Their understanding of the market was invaluable, and they had our house sold in under a week. Their attention to detail was impressive when first listing our home. I was blown away with all the advertising and marketing that went out the day after we decided to sell our home. I have never met a realtor that helped you with the packing, the organizing, the cleaning, the moving of your home. Who does that? What an incredible team they are. They go above and beyond to help you in every way possible. Thank you, Gary and Shelley, for your amazing work and helping make our move much less stressful. You guys are the best and we will always sing your praises.
If anyone is looking to sell or buy a home, Lonnie Goulet is the realtor to contact. She goes above and beyond to make what can be a difficult experience, turn into an easy transition. She will jump in to help even if it is not part of her job. This is our second experience working with Lonnie and never once has she tried to mislead us to make a sale. She is such an HONEST LADY...... and a Beautiful one to boot......Highly recommend Her....
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!
I wish there were more star to rate the Corts. THEY ARE FANTASTIC!! So professional. So responsive. So helpful. So honest. From pricing, to listing, to showing, to closing and finding our next house, Daniel and Debbie are an amazing team. We are so thankful we chose them!
A pleasure to deal with. Went above and beyond to provide excellent service. Was always available and prepared. Would definitely use Drew again.
I had a great experience with Tom. Back in June I put my house on the market and I needed to find my forever home, but due to the pandemic I was very nervous. Until I meet Tom he insured me that he will be there for me and my family every step of the way and that’s what he did. He went above and beyond for us. He made our selling and buying experience a great one and we are so happy that we had Tom represent us. If you want someone to find you the forever home or helping you sell your home call Tom you will not be disappointed.
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!
Our purchase with Shelley and Gary was by long distance. They worked tirelessly to make sure we felt we had as much information about properties as if we were there. This included FaceTime, photos, and videos. They went the extra mile by going many times to the house for inspection and even getting contractors in for measurements, so we were ready when we arrived. They are eager to share information about the Lowcountry which is very new to us. Their response to our inquiries was always quick and friendly. We are now moved in, and they continue to be a great source for information. We highly recommend them without reservation.
I recently listed my home with Andy Reed from the Reed Team. I could not be happier with the process. The photo that he had taken we great and the listing looks good online. I am sure it will help sell my house and very happy I selected to work with them.
Ron and I were pleased that Herman and Davis Properties got results. They listed our property at the right price, prepared first class promotional materials, showed it, and sold it for our asking price in 4 days. They supported us during the closing that was executed without problems. We would recommend them without hesitation.
Duke (especially with his background) and Linda have an excellent grasp of the condition of the real estate market in gated communities. Both Linda and Duke are responsive and provide frank information on the market and what should or should not be done to sell your property.
"My family and I were considering relocating to Bluffton, SC, to be closer to some of our relatives. Through Suburban Jungle, we were connected with Matt and Kara, and from our very first interaction, it was clear we were in excellent hands. Matt's professionalism, honesty, and deep knowledge of the Bluffton area were evident right away.He provided us with thoughtfully curated listings that perfectly aligned with both our needs and preferences, giving us a clear understanding of what the area had to offer. When we visited and met in person, Matt went above and beyond, dedicating several hours to show us around the community, highlighting homes on the market, and sharing his insider knowledge about the local school system and the town as a whole.The entire experience was seamless, informative, and genuinely welcoming. Matt's attention to detail and ability to make us feel at ease throughout the process were truly remarkable. If you're in the market for a home in Bluffton, I wholeheartedly recommend Matt and his team. You won't be disappointed!"
We have used Christina to represent us in the past. When it came time to sell our Port Royal Home, we knew who to call. Christina made the sale of our home so easy. At our 1st meeting, she quickly and efficiently explained the complicated documents. Christina advised us on preparing our home to present to prospective buyers. We had over 25 showings! We received multiple offers and once again, she guided us with suggestions to facilitate the best offer and terms. Christina’s advise was extremely important. Christina is GREAT!
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.
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!
I’ve known Drew for almost 30 years, and this is now my third real estate transaction with him. He knows the market extremely well, especially in Indigo Run, and is a fantastic negotiator. Drew is honest, trustworthy, and hardworking, always following up and making sure every detail is handled. With the support of his great assistant, Kim, the process is seamless. I wouldn’t dream of working with anyone else.
