Since we were not living in the local area, Julianne took on the additional role of investigating potential properties along with the routine tasks expected of a realtor. We worked with her over a year before we found the perfect property. Julianne displayed the highest level of professionalism in all aspects of our transaction, and we recommend her without hesitation.

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.

"We recently sold our home with the help of Matt and Kara Raehn, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From our very first meeting, they brought a perfect balance of professionalism, market expertise, and genuine care that made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Matt and Kara guided us through every step — from preparing the home, to setting the right price, marketing it strategically, and negotiating the sale. Thanks to their hard work, we had strong interest right away and received an offer in no time. What stood out the most was their communication. They were always available to answer questions, offer advice, and keep us informed at every turn. Their attention to detail and dedication to our success truly went above and beyond our expectations. If you’re looking to buy or sell a home, we wholeheartedly recommend Matt and Kara. Their professionalism, experience, and personal touch made all the difference — and we are so grateful to have had them by our side."

We know many real estate agents in Hilton Head, choosing one was very difficult, we chose Richard, and we couldn’t be happier. He helped us in preparation, guided us through the inspections, and was extremely knowledgeable at closing. Richard worked very hard and was always available when we needed him.

“Sabrina did an excellent job in selling our villa. We have worked with her on both sides of a real estate transaction as she helped us with the purchase of a property as well as selling a property. She has been great in both situations. What sets her apart from other realtors is as follows: - she is extremely proactive in her overall approach providing peace of mind that the process is being actively managed, - she assisted in coordinating contractors to address inspector comments immediately following receipt of the comments, - our property was a rental and she worked with the management company to seamlessly transition the property for the new owner, - she communicates constantly throughout the process with her client to keep them abreast of progress which alleviates the stress of the “unknown” for the client. We will use Sabrina for any future real estate transactions in the future - 5 star performance all around.”

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.

We were introduced to Duke when we realized we wanted to make Berkeley Hall our home. South Carolina is a new adventure for us! We so enjoyed working with him. Duke was very knowledgeable about the lots that were available and couldn’t do enough to answer our questions. We had an easy process picking our lot and he was helpful during the building process. He guided us with our homeowner’s insurance and home inspection. We would highly recommend Duke if you plan to live in the Bluffton area.

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.

Brad Wilson made the experience of selling my parents' home not only easy, but very successful as well. We relied on his expertise, honesty, experience and incredible staff, particularly since we are not South Carolina residents. I am so happy to have chosen Brad as our Realtor and hightly recommend him to anyone who is buying or selling in the Hilton Head Island Area.

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.

Best in the business! From the start Linda and Duke helped me through this process of selling a home that I lived in for 20 years. They communicated almost daily and gave help and support when needed. When I purchase again they will be #1 on my list. Thank you, Linda and Duke.

We recently sold our home on Hilton Head through Christina Forbis. We have known her for several years and found her a warm, compassionate and completely trustworthy person. She has extensive knowledge of the island realty market as well as workers, agents, bankers, service people and contractors.. Selling a home usually entails some degree of stress for the sellers. Not so with her. Working with Christina was a pleasure and effortless with us. She leaves no loose ends and was always available to answer our questions and concerns. She was relentless in her work, always showing and promoting our home to potential buyers. As we live out of state,Christina was kind enough to handle many of our last minute details on her own time. She loves her work, is a true professional and a wonderful friend. All  her hard work produced a buyer with a good cash offer. Needless to say we were very pleased. Thank You Christina!

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.

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.

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.

“Sabrina was the listing agent on my condo at the Preserve in Hilton Head. We owned the unit for over 15 years and used it as rental; vacation home and primary residence over the years, it definitely had sentimental value to us. When it was time to sell, I decided to select an agent based on the recent sales in the community. I selected (3) agents by looking at Zillow Sold Properties, Sabrina was the only one that took my call on Saturday afternoon. We met with her the following Monday and within the week property was listed. Sabrina was very professional, straight forward and promised to look after our home after we left (we are from Nevada). Sabrina did an excellent job advertising the property, she was there before and after every showing, provided us with feedback and held several open houses. Sabrina’s hard work and dedication resulted in 2 offers after just 4 weeks on the market (July 2025 was already a buyers’ market). We sold the unit for price we wanted, entire process was super easy, she took care of the inspections, got us in touch with great attorney and pretty much took care of any issues that came up from the moment we handed her the keys. Sabrina is one of the best real estate agents we have worked with, and we would recommend her to any buyer or seller. Thank you Sabrina!!!”

When it came time to sell our property we did our research and interviewed multiple top agents. We selected Chip and his team based upon his reputation of performance, his knowledge of the local market, his marketing expertise, and his communication style. Despite being out of state sellers, we always felt that we were a priority. There were multiple hurdles through the selling process and Chip was by our side negotiating on our behalf and providing constant communication. Again, as out of state sellers Chip was able to provide peace of mind and was able to guide us to a successful closing. We would highly recommend Chip and his team.

"We are so happy we chose Brenda Kline from Charter One Realty for the purchase of our new home. Her knowledge of the area made answering all of our questions so easy and informative.  Her patient approach to an otherwise stressful event made everything run smoothly. I would absolutely recommend Brenda for all your real estate services."

The Elliott Team is impeccable in their extensive real estate knowledge and are consummate, skilled professionals. Without their invaluable help, we would not have found the perfect home. In addition to the unwavering attention they gave us, friends who were visiting us became interested in the area and wanted to investigate options. The result of the Elliott's efforts to accommodate our friend's limited schedule and stay, was quite simply, extraordinary. Our friends also found a wonderful house due to the Elliott’s focused action. We are grateful to have our friends here and also to say thank you, once again, for Shelley and Gary Elliott's incredible efforts.

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.

Team Elliott helped us out tremendously, as first-time home sellers they were very knowledgeable and helpful every step of the way. They guided us through and took care and pride in helping us reach our goals. After meeting with them we knew instantly that they had our best interest in mind. I cannot praise them enough for their guidance. My wife and I were very pleased with their service and highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for realtors in the area.

If you want a top-producing agent, choose Drew Butler. He sold our home in a short time frame despite the abundance of homes for sale in our area. It is clear that Drew’s knowledge of the Indigo Run market sets him above the rest of the agents.  His preparation and use of professional tools to produce super marketing materials with top notch photography greatly contributed to the quick sale.  Each step of the listing, sale and closing portions of the process were handled in a clear and decisive manner. He continually demonstrated a willingness to take the extra steps required to make "both the selling and purchasing parties more than satisfied.  We highly recommend him to anyone that desires a professional to handle the sale of their home.

I have worked in my lifetime with over 20 real estate brokers. Buying and selling property in many different areas of the country is pretty typical for me. I must say that James Wedgeworth is by far the BEST broker I have ever dealt with. I could get into particulars and it would take an hour to write this review. So let me bullet point: -Professional -Extremely knowledgeable both to SC laws and local customs -Never say never attitude -Great negotiator -Superb listening skills -Amazing support staff (Erin is a rock star) -Kind, funny, witty and overall true southern gentleman. When push came to shove, he got the deal listed and sold in 6 days at my asking price. I can’t say enough. He took what was a difficult situation and made it work. Thank you James!

We love hearing from our clients! Check out what this seller in Belfair had to say about his experience with Scott Collins. I highly recommend Scott Collins and consider him to be the most professional real estate person I have ever dealt with. Over the years we have sold seven houses, dealt with as many real estate agents, but the experience with Scott was the best ever. Selling a home is always a stressful experience but Scott made it much less of one. He kept in contact with us from the very beginning, took the time to explain the market conditions, the current trend of buyers in our price range, the marketing strengths of his company and the strategies that would be used to interest and attract buyers. He was always available to answer questions and made us feel that we were his most important clients. Our house sold quickly thanks to Scott but an event that occurred just before closing on the sale of our home speaks volumes about his professionalism and caring nature. Due to some issues with our moving company, some items were left behind in the garage that needed to be disposed of but we had already left the area. Frantic, I called Scott the day before closing and explained the situation. Scott said not to worry about it. Two hours later the issue was resolved. Need I say more about why I recommend Scott.

We are highly recommending her and her team! Thank you, Michelle."

“As my fiancé and I were looking to start the process of buying our first home together, we were lucky to have found Sabrina. Because we had a small window of time to find a home, we knew we needed someone who was knowledgeable about the housing market, dependable and had our best interest in mind. Sabrina truly did not disappoint and surpassed every expectation we had for a real estate agent. She took the time to sit down and explain everything and genuinely listened to the vision we had for our home. Not only is Sabrina professional and competent in her role, but she is also very charismatic, making all communication with her enjoyable. Overall, she is such a positive and fun person to work with, but so detail oriented at the same time - she doesn't miss a beat! I will definitely be recommending her to anyone in the need of an agent because I know they will be well taken care of.”
