Our experience with the Wedgeworth Team in selling our home was superior in every way. They were respectful of our time and scheduled the appointments in a stress reducing way. Chip is a very kind person and we like him a lot. We will highly recommend him.
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!
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.
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!
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.
Linda and Duke are highly responsive and provided great personal service every step of the way. They were particularly indispensable in helping us navigate through inspection requirements. They are uniquely qualified agents...and wonderful people to work with.
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.
The Reed Team and Andy Reed in particular were very efficient and helpful when we first came to Hilton Head. They made our home purchase easy and actually fun. Negotiating through closing we were led through the process with ease and confidence. After moving in they helped us in so many ways to get settled and to find our way around the area and to locate different services. Since then, we have referred friends to the Reed Team and have been pleased with the way they were treated. We always felt our friends were their friends. Thank you all for the extra effort!
Duke and Linda brought this property to us to buy and when it was time to sell they took great care of us from start to finish. Duke went above and beyond handling this for us and we couldn’t be happier. Outstanding service before during and after the sale.
Simply the best!
Drew Butler and his team did an exceptional job for us in finding our new home in Hilton Head. Drew's knowledge of the Island and current market conditions proved valuable as we narrowed our search to meet our requirements. Our transaction had a number of one-off variables that came into play and Drew and his team adapted quickly to keep the sale on track. I would highly recommend Drew if looking for a home in the Hilton Head / Bluffton area.
I became acquainted with Christina Forbis at Charter One through her marketing of listings in my neighborhood. After a phone call and meeting with Christina to discuss my wants and needs I was favorably impressed and knew I wanted to be working with her. All her suggestions to market my listing were made to put my home in the best possible light. While I may have sputtered to myself at times there is no doubt she is the expert! I felt my interests were her priority. She was available, always a source of support and expertise. I would highly recommend Christina Forbis as a professional realtor who will look out for your best interests.
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.
I have moved many times in my life, many real estate agent were good, some not so good, but I never experienced a GREAT agents until Shelley and Gary Elliott of Charter One Realty. They went above any expectations I had in helping me get my house “show” ready to list, they helped me manage my two kitties to keep them safe during showings, they helped me dispose of belongings I did not want to move to my next home, and they arranged for a clean up after I had moved out. This was a difficult move because I am now older and alone. Shelley and Gary were always there to help me and support me with anything that came up. I can't praise them enough!
What a team! Shelley and Gary really understood what we were looking for and guided us to find our home. They were extremely knowledgeable and aided us in every step of the buying process. They are invested in their clients and make sure that everything goes smoothly. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants top rate service.
Simply awesome team. We could not be more impressed with the totally professional, extremely knowledgeable, and friendly approach they provide. Caring, genuinely interested in providing solutions that met our needs. We could not be more pleased, and give them our strongest recommendation!
Richard helped us purchase a home in Bluffton, and we couldn't be happier! He goes above and beyond for his clients, is a long-time Hilton Head resident, and has a great feel for the market. Experienced, patient, honest, straightforward, and trustworthy. Because of his local knowledge, he also knows exactly who to go to for loans, insurance, attorneys, inspections, repairmen, landscapers, contractors...you name it, he has an answer. 100%, 10/10, 5 Stars, whatever the scoring metric, he is one of the best.
As one of the original members of the Palmetto Bluff real estate team and the longest serving member of that team, few if any know Palmetto Bluff and Palmetto Bluff real estate as well as Keene Reese. We surely benefitted from his depth of knowledge and excellent relationships when we purchased and developed our Palmetto Bluff homesite. Keene’s wonderful personality and superior character added to our very favorable experience. We certainly intend to involve Keene in our next Lowcountry transaction.
Alec Smith was great to work with. His knowledge of the area and local market conditions made the entire process easy. I would recommend Alec to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in the Bull Point Plantation community.
"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."
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.
Purchased a home in Sea Pines with Andy and the Reed Team. Andy’s knowledge of the local area and the individual communities was very helpful. He worked with us over the span of two years as we searched for the right second home. During our search we came to the island several times and when Andy was not available Rich took us around. Then when we finally decided on a home, Andy and his Dad were both there to help out. It’s really a team approach and we appreciated that very much. As if finding the perfect home was not enough we were actually living out of the country when we went under contract - 2,500 miles away in Asia. Andy kept us up to date and on track for our closing. If you are looking for an agent or a team of agents that care about finding you the right home or second home - call on Andy and the Reed Team.
Alec Smith has helped us buy two homes and sell one house in the Celadon development on Lady's Island. His support and insight have been invaluable as we transitioned into the community and made this area our new home. He is detail-oriented, communicates exceptionally well, and is very professional. I would highly recommend Alec for buying or selling your home.
“Sabrina worked very hard for my wife and I. We bought our home remotely, and she helped us throughout the process. She was there for the final walk-through and inspection, and she took care of arranging and coordinating with local contractors. I highly recommend her if you need a realtor.”
"If you are looking for a fantastic realtor then I highly recommend Matt and Kara Raehn! What a team! Both Matt and Kara are reliable, punctual and thorough! They actually listened to our needs and wants. We are from out of state and hoping to find our dream home was like finding a needle in a haystack . The moment we connected on the phone for the first time we felt at ease, and it felt like talking with one of our family members. Last minute we decided to drive 10 hours to meet Matt and Kara to look at a home they found for us. They found it! They found our dream home. Matt met us on a holiday weekend, showed us the house, answered all of our questions and that night we decided we wanted to make an offer but wanted to see it again one more time. Kara met us the very next day to show us the house again and answer more of our questions. We made an offer and it was accepted! Matt and Kara you both helped us in so many ways and we are forever grateful for you both. Thank you for your patience in finding our dream home! We cannot wait to raise our family and make new memories in what now we call our home.”
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!
Beth Doudoukjian is the ultimate professional with the expertise and knowledge to ensure her clients are getting the best possible real estate service. Her personality and demeanor put us at ease and provided us with a pleasurable experience in the purchase of our most recent property.
My husband and I had the privilege of engaging Beth to help us find a “fixer-upper” on the Island last year. Not only did she scour the market to find the perfect (most imperfect) property in our price range, she and her team were able to negotiate a great price with a quick closing date. Beth knows the area very well, having lived in Hilton Head for 20 plus years. It is clear that Beth studies the market to ensure she is up to date with and familiar with this dynamic real estate market.
We are so confident in her ability and expertise, that she will be listing our Villa next year and is currently searching for additional property for us to purchase.
We engaged Alec Smith to be our Realtor because he was referred to us by very good friends living on Callawassie Island. We certainly made the right decision because his customer service skills are exceptional. He is easy to work with and his integrity, patience and perseverance to get our home on Callawassie sold and closed on time was his main objective. Alec knows and understands real estate without a question. he is on top of the Island’s current housing market. While being very personable and extremely professional, what was most important to us, is we could trust him. He has a bright future ahead of him in real estate and we will continue to recommend him as the best Realtor on Callawassie Island.
Working with Gary and Shelley was an absolute pleasure. They are highly knowledgeable about the area and trends in the market. With their attention to detail and patience in our search we were able to find our home. We will use them in the future and recommend them frequently. They have many resources and connections with the best in the field. They were always available and easy to reach.
Debbie and Daniel Cort are great at what they do! The are very patient and I would highly recommend them if you are considering buying a property, they are very knowledgeable. We love our new place.
Hannah was beyond helpful when my family needed to purchase a home. She gets back to you quickly, will go out of your way to accommodate requests, and is super friendly! I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable realtor!
