Charter One Realty proudly announces that seven of its distinguished real estate advisors have been recognized with the prestigious 2025 REALTOR® Service Award by the Hilton Head Area REALTORS® (HHAR), one of the highest honors awarded within the local real estate profession.

Each year, HHAR recognizes a select group of REALTORS® who demonstrate exceptional commitment to professional development, association leadership, and meaningful community involvement. These individuals represent a small percentage of the association’s membership and embody the highest standards of the REALTOR® profession.

The REALTOR® Service Award honors those who go beyond the transaction, professionals who invest in continuing education, actively participate in the profession's leadership, and dedicate their time, talent, and resources to strengthening the communities they serve. Recipients also uphold the rigorous standards of the REALTOR® Code of Ethics, reinforcing trust and integrity across the real estate profession.

Charter One Realty is proud to recognize the following 2025 award recipients:

• Shelley Elliott
• Randy Fix
• Michelle Garbade
• Lonnie Goulet
• Charles Sampson
• Andy Twisdale
• Marisa Wagner

“These recognitions reflect the character of our team,” said Paige Rose, Marketing and Corporate Growth Strategist at Charter One Realty. “Our advisors are not only leaders in Hilton Head real estate, Bluffton real estate, and Beaufort real estate, they are deeply committed to elevating the profession and giving back to the communities that make the Lowcountry such a remarkable place to live.”

The impact of these professionals extends well beyond real estate transactions. Their contributions through volunteerism, mentorship, and advocacy help shape the profession's future while strengthening the fabric of the Lowcountry community.

As demand continues for Hilton Head homes for sale, Bluffton homes for sale, and Beaufort homes for sale, Charter One Realty remains focused on delivering a higher level of service — grounded in expertise, ethics, and community leadership.

Charter One Realty extends its sincere congratulations to all honorees and appreciation to the Hilton Head Area REALTORS® for providing ongoing opportunities for professional growth, education, and community engagement. To view the full list of aware recipients, click here.
