The Elliotts are quite the team!!! They work extremely well together and never leave a stone unturned. After selling several homes over 50 years, they, without a doubt, provided the best service of any realtor I have previously used. I would not hesitate to call on them again myself or to recommend them to others.

I found Tom DeFazio to be an asset to his company and a very highly attentive agent to my needs, as though I were his only client. He is very knowledgeable in his field, patient, and personable. Tom always returned my phone calls or texts the same day. I am pleased to recommend Tom DeFazio to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. In fact, he is working with my family right now to purchase a second home. If or when I decide to sell or purchase a home again, Tom DeFazio would be my first call.

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.

Working with Debbie Cort was absolutely seamless and perfect. Our Family needed to relocate to the area from Florida and we had no idea where to start looking for our new home. My wife sent an email regarding a property we might be interested in and Debbie responded immediately! We shared our lifestyle and current type of home we owned to help Debbie show us the best neighborhood to suit us in the shortest time frame. After 2-3 trips from Florida to look at our home buying options we landed on a beautiful home in Bluffton with the amenities that were exactly to our needs! Without Debbie Cort we wouldn't have been able to make our move happen so smooth. And we have built a great friendship along the way. Debbie puts her heart and soul into the entire process. And was always available for any questions that came up. Thanks Debbie and Dan!

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.

Buying our new home with Debbie and Daniel was an unbelievably easy experience! Debbie went above and beyond to make sure every "i "was dotted and every "t" crossed. She and Daniel gave us great advice as to where to buy and who to get as our mortgage processor. A usually daunting experience was turned into a very easy and no stress experience. I HIGHLY recommend these very professional agents to anyone looking to buy a home in the Bluffton/HHI area. A business relationship has turned into a great friendship! Thanks Debbie and Daniel for our new home!!

We contacted Christina Forbis because we had heard from friends that she was the best on the Island, that turned out to be completely accurate. She responded immediately and was very accessible. She used the first day to show us areas that we were interested in. By the second day she hit the nail on the head. We found a property in the Port Royal Plantation that was perfect, she got us the home of our dreams!  That was only the beginning of all of the work she did for us. She coordinated every step after that and made the transition easy.  We can't say enough great things about Christina’s professionalism. We also feel like we made a new friend. She is super easy to talk to, we had a lot of laughs and now we are looking forward to being her neighbor in beautiful Port Royal.

"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.”

“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!”

"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."

Marvin sold our home in Rose Hill and it was an awesome experience. He's extremely knowledgeable and professional, taking the time to explain every aspect of selling our home so we were comfortable with the experience. He kept in constant contact with us, taking care of all the details to ensure the sale went smoothly. After selling our home, Marvin helped us sell my mother's house in Sun City. My mother couldn't have been happier with Marvin and how he took care of all the details. If you're looking for a Realtor, look no further than Marvin Hall. He'll do an awesome job for you.

Randy Fix was incredible to work with on the purchase of my new home in Bluffton. When I started looking at homes, Randy was a patient and really listened to the needs and aspects that I wanted in my new home. He was able to provide great options and I was able to select a perfect home that checked every box. Besides being an all around super person, Randy is extremely knowledgeable about the area and was able to provide excellent guidance during the process. From the very first day that we met to the day I closed, Randy was always there to support and help me with my home purchase. He acts with great integrity which was very important to me and it was clear that he is respected in the community. Randy has an easy going personality but don't be fooled, he gets the job done efficiently, quickly and perfectly. If I ever need help with real estate in the area, I will use him again and recommend him to anyone who needs help. I wish I could give more than 5 stars because he deserves them!

We can’t say enough about Marisa. From the moment we started working with her, she proved to be an outstanding real estate agent. She always went the extra mile and her constant monitoring and timely updates kept us informed. This was particularly relevant as we were able to make an offer on a house previously under agreement and if it wasn’t for her regular communication we would have missed the opportunity. Marisa’s professionalism attention to detail, and incredible follow-through set her apart. She was always accessible and promptly responded to our emails, phone calls, and texts. Her knowledge of the real estate market was impressive, and even if she didn’t have an immediate answer to our questions, she diligently followed up to provide us with accurate information. What truly stood out was Marisa’s dedication and caring nature. She didn’t just focus on the buying process; she ensured that our move-in experience would be as seamless as possible. She provided us with valuable support and resources that made the transition easier for us. Beyond her exceptional skills, Marisa exudes a positive vibe that made working with her a pleasure. Her enthusiasm and genuine care for her clients make her an agent we would highly recommend to anyone in need of a real estate professional. Thank you, Marisa, for making our home buying journey an incredible experience.

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.

"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."

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.

We’ve owned a home in Port Royal since 2006 and over that time have met numerous realtors who profess to know the Port Royal market.  Christina Forbis however, is the only one who really does.  She has an excellent knowledge of the area, as well as past, current and upcoming listings and sales.  She gave us a thorough market analysis and discussed things we should consider doing to improve the marketability, and sales price of our home.  With us living out of state, she handled everything to make the sale go through, beginning with advance marketing to professional photographs of our home, verification of HOA assessment payments, arranging for carpet cleaning, coordinating the repair work with our handyman, termite inspection, to recommend of a closing attorney.  This is our fourth real estate purchase or sale in Hilton Head Island, but our first with Christina.  Her level of customer service far exceeds the others.  We’ll never use anyone else; she’s great.

We were referred to Hannah for the sale of our home. We had a tough order for her. We made a contingent offer on another home out-of-state and had to get our home listed within just 3 days. We also had a short window to get our place sold. Not only did she get our home photographed and listed within that 48 hours, she got it under contract and closed weeks before the contingent contract on our new home expired. When I had questions or concerns, Hannah had solutions! She was never a roadblock. Her real estate knowledge is phenomenal and she knows how to close a deal! If you want a realtor to be your best advocate, you want Hannah Howell! If you want a realtor who genuinely cares about her clients, you want Hannah Howell! If you want a realtor to close the deal, you want Hannah Howell! Thank you, Hannah! We are grateful for you!

"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."

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.

Sanders was an absolute 10 out of 10. From the first email Sanders responsiveness was top notch. I think I maybe had one call that wasn’t picked up after the 3rd ring. He is friendly, patient and will take the time to get to know you and help you find the right house. He is not a pushy agent…he gives you honest responses and helps you understand the pro’s/con’s of areas and homes. Sanders is incredibly knowledgeable about the Hilton Head area as he grew up there plus he draws on the experience of his father Richard who has been an agent in the area for decades. Sanders was also invaluable in helping us transition into the area, introducing us to local vendors and personally helping us with the house. I strongly recommend Sanders and have to many close friends.

Neil [Castellane] handled the sale of my condo, my husband’s condo, and subsequently the purchase of our beautiful new home on the island. Neil walked us through all of the steps and explained things in a way that was easily understandable (even the complicated paperwork). He provided a wealth of information when we had questions, and made excellent recommendations. He was very detail-oriented and told us what to expect, what items of the transaction we would be responsible for in each instance (whether buying or selling), and what kind of timeframe to expect. He kept things moving in a timely manner and was easily accessible when we had questions or needed information. Neil treats you like a PERSON - not a dollar sign, and I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for an agent in the area!
