Richard was fully up to date on market conditions very professional in all areas of the process of selling my property. He kept me up to date at all times, answered any questions that I had; he took care of all details. It was a pleasure to work with Richard in the sale of my property which was completed quickly. This was the fifth time that Richard has worked with me in selling or buying property.

Marvin did a wonderful job assisting us with the sell and purchase of our homes. As one who isn't very knowledgeable about everything that it takes to navigate the process of selling and buying a home, he patiently walked with us through the entire journey. He gave us advice on what we should do to get our house staged and ready to sell and also helped a lot in the negotiating process to help us get to a comfortable price for the purchase of our new home. Marvin is a man of true honesty and integrity as a real estate agent, which is refreshing in the culture in which we live. I can't recommend him highly enough!

My wife Julie and I have had the pleasure of working with The Reed Team for many years, and we consider them to be family.  They have represented my family and I in several real estate transactions, and our experience has consistently been first-class. Their professionalism, dedication, and knowledge of the Hilton Head real estate market is unmatched. Most recently, Andy Reed, worked on our behalf in the purchase of an oceanfront home in Sea Pines.  His expertise and knowledge of the Sea Pines market proved invaluable.  Not only was he responsive, but he took the time to understand our goals and objectives and represented us as if we were his number one priority.  We are thrilled with the long-term relationship we have enjoyed with Andy and The Reed Team and highly recommend Andy Reed if you are looking to buy or sell your property in Sea Pines.

Look no further, David Wedgeworth is your guy. We had the pleasure of working with David for three real estate transactions over the last year and a half. From immediately talking with David we could tell he had the local knowledge, drive to sell our properties, and a genuineness that put us at ease. He was always available to answer questions and kept us informed on all the details throughout our transactions. He truly went above and beyond helping us find trusted companies for repairs that needed to be made and even met them at our home when we were unable to be there. He took away any stress that comes with buying and selling property. We are so thankful for David and his exceptional group over at The Wedgeworth Team and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a seamless real estate transaction.

Michelle helped us sell our 1 bedroom condo on Hilton Head and was a joy to work with. She was extremely knowledgeable, thorough, tenacious and always professional. She guided us through every step of the process even anticipating our questions and needs. She followed through on every aspect of closing through an unexpected three day delay. We were not a large sale by Hilton Head standards, but we never felt like we were anything but a top priority for her. We would not hesitate for an instant to use Michelle again or to recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate professional in the Lowcountry.

"We can't thank Shelley and Gary enough for all of their help finding us our dream home! These days with inventory moving so quickly, by the time you see something out there on the real estate sites it is usually already gone. Shelley and Gary worked tirelessly (and I'm not just saying that, I mean tirelessly!) to find us this home that finally checked every one of our boxes, and there were a number of boxes! Shelley and Gary were super patient with our quest to find the perfect spot and I think enjoyed when we found the perfect home as much as we did! They were very helpful with our many many questions along the way and even though we have gone through the process of purchasing a home a few times before it always helps to have someone there to guide you through the process."

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.

Our overall experience with Delcher and Delcher was excellent. We really appreciated their market experience, local knowledge and the care and consideration that was put forth in the listing and marketing of our home. As we were abroad during the process, we were kept well informed, and both Linda and Duke were always available, pleasant and extremely professional. Highly recommended.

“ Paul Rittenhouse helped us find our dream home! My husband and I had to move across the country and were not be able to be in person to house hunt. Working with Paul felt like we had boots on the ground. He was eager to show us any property that caught our interest, making us feel like we were his top priority at all times. Ultimately, he navigated us through a tough situation, and found us our dream home that we were able to get an accepted offer on before it hit market. So thankful to have Paul represent us and help us transition into our next chapter of life!”

We never fully knew just how much difference a great sales agent could help with the sale of our home until we had the good fortune to contact Christina Forbis. From the very first meeting until closing Christina was by our side the entire time. Her marketing skills, staging suggestions, excellent communication skills and attention to detail let us know quickly that we had made the right choice. She spent so much time working for us we often commented about when did she possibly have time to work with other clients. Choose Christina Forbis - you will not be disappointed.

Duke and Linda directed the sale of our home in a most professional way.  Their cadre of professionals put together an effective marketing effort that saved us time and removed any doubt about the outcome.   Duke especially is a man of few words, each chosen carefully with truth at their core.  In a profession marked by lots of hype and hoopla, Delcher’s do better.  They deliver results.

“Sabrina is amazing. She is a true professional and is extremely knowledgeable with a wonderful personality. Sabrina worked tirelessly for us and was always available and accessible. She understood our goals and needs and, provided a clear roadmap to properties that fit our dreams. She found us the perfect home and stood firm on our behalf to make sure the property was in perfect condition for us before we took possession. Sabrina loves what she does, and it shows in every aspect of her work. We have bought and sold 10 homes (so far) in our lifetimes, and Sabrina is by far the best agent that we've ever worked with. We highly recommend Sabrina for anyone looking for property around HHI and will personally recommend her to everyone who is buying or selling a property in the Hilton Head area. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the top realtor, she is a 20!!”

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!

I found Alec Smith long before I moved to South Carolina. A friend in Maine had moved here and raved about it so I started checking it out and I found Alec. He educated me so much about the area, sending me maps, homes to look at, phone calls offering ups and downs of different areas, but most importantly, he wanted to know what I was looking for so he could help me "check off all the boxes". In May of 2022 I finally made the move here from Maine and began officially working with Alec to find a home. Because he listened intently to what I was looking for, it didn't take long to find my dream home in Battery Point with fabulous amenities. Alec will make sure you get everything thoroughly inspected before you make up your mind to buy or not to buy, e.g. inspection, termite inspection, appraisal, etc. He keeps his eye on the ball making sure things get taken care of quickly and correctly and the process continues to move along to closing. He spent months with me and was never pushy or impatient. AND he bought me a gift card to a high-end furniture store to boot! Alec's great!! I could go on and on and on. You can't go wrong with this broker. I highly, highly recommend him. Oh, and even though I'm in my home now, he still answers questions I have about the house, like how do I get the gas fireplace to work? He helped me figure that out!

“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!!”

We had the pleasure of working with Matt and Kara on both the sale of our home and purchase of our new home. During every stage of the process they were attentive, responsive and kept an open line of communication to all parties involved. Their knowledge and communication style made this a seamless experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better team!

Our relationship with Monica and her team spans 20 years, comprised of buying and selling an oceanfront villa and penthouse and finally buying the oceanfront forever home of our dreams! Monica has been there every step of the way handling ALL the details that might be typical and so many that were not. It is all but impossible to describe the value that Monica brings to the table as a seasoned expert in the field of real estate. The first thing that comes to mind, though, is that relationship is her priority over real estate, and by genuinely focusing on the client relationship, she delivers in the best possible way! Manageable accessibility for our daughter with special needs was one of the MANY boxes that had to be checked, and Monica often personally previewed homes to ensure that it was. As her client, we always knew her #1 concert was whether or not the home we were looking at would suit our needs and provide us with enjoyment for years to come.The only concern with having recently purchased our dream home is that we’re worried we won’t see Monica as frequently!

Drew Butler did an outstanding job selling our home. This was the 3rd home that we sold with Drew as our agent. We had previously bought 2 homes with the help of Drew. Drew is very detail oriented, and we think that really helps sell the home. This latest home was only on the market for a short time, and we got our asking price! If I was buying or selling a house in Indigo Run Hilton Head Island, I would use Drew as my agent!

“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!”

When Diana asked me to write a testimonial of my experience of selling my house with her my remark was “easy peasy”.  She came to me very well prepared with data and comps which she presented in a very cohesive and cogent manner.  She wasn’t into “staging” for which I was grateful.  My home didn’t sell to the first looker so there was some hand holding involved in the process with her reasonable and thorough explanations.  She was present for all showings, and always got back to me with the buyers’ input about the home.> So if you want an organized, informed, smart , and very successful agent Diana’s  the one for you.  She sure was for me.

We have been working with Marisa Cain as we plan our move to the Bluffton area in the next couple of years, and we couldn't be more impressed. Even though we're still in the early stages of our search, Marisa has been incredibly generous with her time, knowledge, and expertise.She is truly a wealth of information about Bluffton and the surrounding communities. From helping us understand the different communities and lifestyles to answering countless questions about the area, she has been an invaluable resource. What sets Marisa apart is not only her professionalism and deep market knowledge, but also the genuine care she shows for her clients.Marisa is the kind of realtor who makes you feel like you're working with a trusted friend. We are so grateful for her guidance and highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Bluffton area. When we're ready to make our move, there is no doubt that Marisa will be our realtor, and we are so lucky.

Michael and Michelle were an amazing team to work with. Their knowledge of the local market combined with their diverse skill sets were just the right combination that I needed to sell my unique property. They were patient and professional as I wavered on decisions and confidently guided me through how to respond to each of the multiple offers I received. They were always there to perform helpful tasks while I was out of town and Michael even revived a riding lawnmower that died in the middle of the yard before an open house! I highly recommend Michael and Michelle to sell or buy your next home. They will get the job done for you!

After vacationing on Hilton Head Island for several years, we were ready to house hunt and Christina Forbis was recommended to us by one of her very satisfied former clients.  She hung in there with us for several more years, showing us properties as we continued to vacation and ponder retirement on the Island.    We were all over the place with our search and Christina patiently helped us hone in on the areas we liked best and the type of house we wanted.   She helped us learn about Hilton Head and its communities and made adjustments to our search as our thinking evolved. We relied on her experience and expertise to help us navigate the sales and closing processes and she was quick to respond to the dozens of questions we threw her way.   We enjoyed working with Christina and found her sense of humor, professional demeanor and code of ethics to be in line with the qualities we wanted in a real estate agent.  We would certainly recommend her without reservation.

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!
