Multiple friends recommended that we contact Christina Forbis to sell our home on Hilton Head Island, and we are so glad that they did. Christina provided us with valuable advice on the pricing of our home, because she knows the market so well. She negotiated to sell our home for more than we expected. She sold the house the first day that it was on the market. She added clauses to the standard contract that benefited us greatly. This is the first time that we have sold a home (even though we are in our seventies) and she held our hands every step of the way. She is truly a professional full service broker. Plus, she is a fine person. Christina has our highest recommendation.
OUTSTANDING! From the start Tammy Moody’s knowledge of the inventory, pricing and challenging market provided us with extremely helpful advice and guidance every step of the way. She ensured that we understood all aspects involved in selling our home. Tammy helped us through some times when we had doubts and endless questions that all sellers have. Our home sold and we were thrilled. All we can say is high marks for Tammy and the Charter One Team.
Marisa Cain was my Realtor selling my home. She was amazing from the beginning. She was very knowledgeable, very positive and very warm. She was the best combination. She attended every single showing of my house and reported back to me after every showing. She was always in contact with the showing realtors. It was amazing that she took so much time. She answered all of my questions. She calmed me down when I was concerned. She was there with the movers. Nothing was ever too much for her. Selling this house was the smoothest experience. And I owe it all to Marisa Cain!
“Sabrina was by far the best realtor we have ever used. She is the ultimate professional when it comes to real estate. Sabrina worked with us for several months to find the right house and worked with us through the entire process. She never let a day go by without assisting with inspectors, contractors etc. Highly recommend Sabrina to both sell and purchase a property. You won't find a better realtor!!!! Outstanding!!”
Marisa (Light Cain) and Ann (Walton) are the Dynamic Duo! It Started with Marisa sending us all the latest and greatest listings for months – Then we popped into town last Sept and showed up around everywhere! They were an absolute pleasure to work with, showing us some amazing properties/communities in Beaufort, all the while answering all of our questions, educating us on the area, and genuinely caring about us and what we were looking for. When we found our dream home, they dug in handling all of the leg work, negotiation, paperwork, etc., truly making our experience of buying a house out of state as stress free as possible! If you're looking for Agents who give support, expertise, and thoughtfulness, Marisa and Ann deliver! We liked them so much we keep in touch and look forward to having them over for dinner soon!
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!
We were interested in purchasing a home in the Bluffton area and currently live in Pennsylvania. Our list of wants and needs were long and we weren’t sure if we could come close to finding anything in our price range and that checked off a lot of our boxes.
Luckily we were introduced to Diana Sroufe from Charter One and immediately clicked. Diana took the time to get to know us and was able to understand our interests. Diana was extremely knowledgeable and responsive to all communications throughout the process.
Diana is closely plugged in to the community and homes coming up for sale. We ended up with a lovely home that was exactly what we had hoped for. I know if we had any other realtor agent we would not have ended up as happy as we are today.
Diana helped my sister find a home in Belfair last year. She helped my sister the same way she helped us.
Our family can’t thank Diana enough for her hard work and diligence finding us a home.
“Sabrina went above and beyond to ensure my relocation from NY to Bluffton would be smooth. She listened to what I thought I wanted (which were two different things) and patiently showed me many options, while being knowledgeable of the area. Sabrina diligently monitored coming soon listings and ultimately did a virtual tour for me – my home that I purchased without ever being in it myself. I was out of state and Sabrina was there for each step of the way. I absolutely trust and recommend Sabrina!”
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!
Andy Twisdale was so helpful with the purchase of my wonderful home in Hilton Head. Because he is so connected to the Island and an experienced agent, the purchase and closing went smoothly, and he was able to provide much help with recommendations on various contractors. He knew when to push back in the purchase process and was a good advocate for me. He was professional and kind. I highly recommend Andy as an agent.
When my husband & I were researching golf community properties in the Hilton Head/Beaufort/Bluffton area, we found Linda & Duke Delcher. They were not only very professional; but they understood our needs and let us find the right place for us. No opinions; no pressure. We eventually found our home (the last one we looked at) and we couldn't be happier! Duke and Linda were great to work with & we would recommend them with great enthusiasm!
My husband and I met Linda 4 years ago and at that time I knew that if we didn't buy then we would someday. Fast forward to 2024 and we've quickly caught up, picked up where we left off and began the search for our next home and community. I still can't believe we found a property, made an offer, and had an acceptance in under two days! We appreciate all your help in the search for our newly purchased property and we are so excited to build our dream home. Your attention to details and knowledge of the community made the process easy, and we couldn't be happier we chose to work with you. We truly appreciated your flexibility, and willingness to accommodate our schedules knowing that we are not from the area and needed to fly in since we currently live so far away. You were terrific to create an agenda that maximized our time with the best result ever a property that we absolutely adore!
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.
“Mary Williams spent countless hours dedicated to our listing. Her efforts before the home was listed, during the showing period, and especially after negotiating the contract through to the final closing proved invaluable given our rushed move. Mary is a true professional—unmatched in our 19th home sale over 59 years. Thank you, Mary Williams and Charter One Realty.”
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.
"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."
“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!!!”
“Sabrina was so easy to work with!! From pre-listing and all the questions, to closing, Sabrina was helpful, professional, friendly and very knowledgeable!! Her photos were beautiful and professional. We are so grateful for her help and would definitely work with her again!! She’s the BEST!!!”
“ It has been a pleasure to work with Paul Rittenhouse.. Selling a house is such a stressful experience. Using Paul as our agent took much of the worry out of the process. Paul is a no-nonsense, get-it-done kind of guy. He always extended an invitation to call him if we had any questions. What was so amazing about Paul, was he responded so quickly no matter what the question or concern was. We have had other experiences buying and selling homes, but we have never had anyone who genuinely seemed to care about us and our needs. His attention to detail is second to none; therefore, we highly recommend Paul to get the job done in the best possible way.”
"Excellent experience! Austin was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process of selling our house. Austin was always available when we had questions or need help understanding the selling process. Even though he had other clients, he treats you and is available to you like you’re his only client. I highly recommend Austin if you and your family is interested buying or selling a home!"
"WOW! It was certainly a journey but one worth it with the right realtor. It would be very remiss of me not to pass on how incredibly helpful Debbie and Daniel were to me during my first home buying process. Two individuals that truly care and take their time and are so understanding… incredibly patient, talented and immersive in how communicative they are on the entire spectrum of the process. I am so grateful! Thank you so much Debbie and Daniel!! ”
We started a search for Hilton Head properties a few months ago when we were connected to Daniel and Deb Cort. When I spoke to Daniel he listened to exactly what I was looking for and what I wanted to do. He offered up his suggestions as a friend would when helping you to make a decision. My wife and I immediately felt very comfortable with his tremendous knowledge of the Island and the best places to look. He was able to walk us through properties while we were in FL and his attention to detail was amazing as we bought a property without actually walking through it. We were able to do this because of the trust and faith we quickly put in him and his team. When we started the process of the offer and negotiation, his wife Deb took over and her attention to detail and follow up was AMAZING. Again, we were doing this from 4 hours away and needed someone to represent us as they would a family member. That is truly what they have become to us. We then got a number of suggestions from them on handymen and rental agents and they have all been spot on. I cant give enough of a 5 star rating here as I would love to give more. They treated us like family and when you are making a large purchase it can be overwhelming. They truly went the extra mile to do more than asked!
“Matt and Kara Raehn made the incredibly daunting task of selling our first home extremely manageable and less scary. While it was a ton of work, they made sure to hold my hand through it all and taught us how to get our home ready to list and made sure it sold for what we were hoping for. We quite literally could not have done it without them!”
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.
“For someone who’s never bought a house before, I was very fortunate to have Daniel and Debbie for a team. Between Daniel showing me home after home and Debbie’s updates on the backend of everything, they made the process of buying a home stress-free.”
In my experience, agents representing the home seller often have to wear many hats but most of all have to be connected to the market – Drew Butler is certainly connected to Indigo Run. We hired Drew, and he earned every cent of his commission – and then some. I was selling my mother’s house long distance on her behalf. It had a couple of challenges that required many showings to get a handful of offers. The first contract fell through. My mother unexpectedly passed away after the second contract was signed, but before the closing, leaving the deal in limbo. Drew proactively put me in touch with an excellent estate attorney to help keep the transaction on track, and a versatile handyman to make necessary repairs. He arranged for the removal of furniture that no one would take. He was in constant communication – all the while displaying a highly polished personality and incessant wit. The end result was a house that sold within the prescribed timeframe, for more than the asking price. Drew is a person worth getting to know – even if one does not need a really, really good real estate agent.”
“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.”
I could not be happier with the hard work Christina put into selling my house in Port Royal. If you are looking to sell your house and you want it done fast and for top dollar, please call Christina.
Terrific local knowledge! Even better negotiating skills! I will absolutely be using Alec Smith in my future real estate transactions. He was very detailed and organized.
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!

Two individuals that truly care and take their time and are so understanding… incredibly patient, talented and immersive in how communicative they are on the entire spectrum of the process. I am so grateful! Thank you so much Debbie and Daniel!! ”
We started a search for Hilton Head properties a few months ago when we were connected to Daniel and Deb Cort. When I spoke to Daniel he listened to exactly what I was looking for and what I wanted to do. He offered up his suggestions as a friend would when helping you to make a decision. My wife and I immediately felt very comfortable with his tremendous knowledge of the Island and the best places to look. He was able to walk us through properties while we were in FL and his attention to detail was amazing as we bought a property without actually walking through it. We were able to do this because of the trust and faith we quickly put in him and his team. When we started the process of the offer and negotiation, his wife Deb took over and her attention to detail and follow up was AMAZING. Again, we were doing this from 4 hours away and needed someone to represent us as they would a family member. That is truly what they have become to us. We then got a number of suggestions from them on handymen and rental agents and they have all been spot on. I cant give enough of a 5 star rating here as I would love to give more. They treated us like family and when you are making a large purchase it can be overwhelming. They truly went the extra mile to do more than asked!
“Matt and Kara Raehn made the incredibly daunting task of selling our first home extremely manageable and less scary. While it was a ton of work, they made sure to hold my hand through it all and taught us how to get our home ready to list and made sure it sold for what we were hoping for. We quite literally could not have done it without them!”
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.
“For someone who’s never bought a house before, I was very fortunate to have Daniel and Debbie for a team. Between Daniel showing me home after home and Debbie’s updates on the backend of everything, they made the process of buying a home stress-free.”
In my experience, agents representing the home seller often have to wear many hats but most of all have to be connected to the market – Drew Butler is certainly connected to Indigo Run. We hired Drew, and he earned every cent of his commission – and then some. I was selling my mother’s house long distance on her behalf. It had a couple of challenges that required many showings to get a handful of offers. The first contract fell through. My mother unexpectedly passed away after the second contract was signed, but before the closing, leaving the deal in limbo. Drew proactively put me in touch with an excellent estate attorney to help keep the transaction on track, and a versatile handyman to make necessary repairs. He arranged for the removal of furniture that no one would take. He was in constant communication – all the while displaying a highly polished personality and incessant wit. The end result was a house that sold within the prescribed timeframe, for more than the asking price. Drew is a person worth getting to know – even if one does not need a really, really good real estate agent.”
“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.”
I could not be happier with the hard work Christina put into selling my house in Port Royal. If you are looking to sell your house and you want it done fast and for top dollar, please call Christina.
Terrific local knowledge! Even better negotiating skills! I will absolutely be using Alec Smith in my future real estate transactions. He was very detailed and organized.
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!
