Testimonials

Drew Davis was instrumental in getting our condo unit sold this past fall. Drew helped us navigate the complexities of selling a condo from across state lines. He was knowledgeable about the process and kept us in the loop during the whole proceeding. He was able to coordinate the repairs needed to insure that the property was in excellent condition for the sell. Without Drew the process of selling our unit would have been too much for us to handle. We now have him searching for another HHI property for us and will continue to use him as needed in the future. We enjoy and continue to appreciate working with Drew.

I have used Lorri Lewis for multiple transactions on Hilton Head Island. I can strongly recommend her as she is very professional, responsive and knowledgeable regarding the market. Being an out of state owner/buyer/seller I relied on Lorrie's ability to recommend and judgment with respect to the various vendors required for these types of transactions; they were always professional, timely and their fees reasonable. Lorrie went above and beyond at times working with the management company to schedule repairs and inspections of the property. She is truly a partner in the process.

We have bought and sold eleven homes in five states. Without question, Barbra Finer is the most professional Realtor we have known. Aside from her mastery of negotiating both the price and the terms of sale, she is more interested in her clients owning the right home at the right price than in getting commissions. She once advised us that a home we were ready to buy was “Not good value”. At that point she thought it wasthat home or none for us, she was sacrificing her commission with our interest in mind. And she was dead right. The other unique thing about Barbra is how hard she works after a sale contract is signed, making sure every detail is understood and correct.

My family hired Lorri Lewis of Sea Pines Real Estate at the Beach Club after seeking a strong buyer’s agent online with no insights from friends or referrals. Lorri offered the perfect combination of experience, Hilton Head knowledge and purchasing savvy to find our dream vacation home.

Lorri not only make the search and buying process seamless and safe, she easily assessed the most important features for my family. She spent time listening to each of us and miraculously found our perfect second home in less than 60 days of shopping. Lorri knew which properties and locations would match our needs and skillfully guided us through inventory to consider the most viable options, only. Lorri’s conscientious approach to virtual tours and, during contracting, service experts more than made up for the challenges Covid-19 presented. And, she was 100% responsive and available to cover for our local needs during the remote buying experience. Even now, I know I can call on Lorri for anything we might need, be it home repair experts or the best hidden places for a great low country meal.

Professional through and through, Lorri navigated through a multiple offer situation helping us bid strongly for a brand new listing in a hot seller’s market and guided us to make solid decisions that landed us the property we will enjoy for generations. My young adult kids, very different from one another, are equally delighted with the new place. I honestly don’t know how she pulled that off!

Can’t say enough about how successful and smooth our home buying experience was with Lorri at the helm. I would not hesitate to trust Lorri with insights on all low country property investment decisions and hire her to see them through.

It is with great pleasure, that I am writing this letter of support and recommendation for Lee Simmons of the Sea Pines Real Estate group.

We worked with Lee to purchase our new home in Hilton Head Island almost one year ago. Our immediate and extended families had been coming to HHI for more than a decade and we decided it was time to make our move to begin the next phase of our life's journey and establish new roots in South Carolina.

Not only did Lee help us find our dream home - not easy given the tight real estate - but she was great at walking us through and managing every step of the process from inspections, to financing, to insurance, to banking- all with unflappable poise and grace to close without a hitch.

Through this process, Lee became more than our agent. She became our friend and first source of information for anything "HHI" related. Given her own journey, Lee knows so much about the Island, the places and the people. She is our first source for recommendations for restaurants for special occasions, stay at home pet sitters, interior decorators, and out of the way places that only the locals know. She has never steered us the wrong way.

We have moved more than twelve times over 33 years of being together. The fastest way we met people previously was through our four wonderful children, the local school, and work. Being empty nesters and working remotely, our biggest concern was how would we find a way to make HHI our new home for the future. Through Lee, we found our answer and we are forever grateful to know her and call her a friend. Sincerely, David and Ann Broecker

Mary Pracht - And I have to tell you. You came as advertised by Jim. You are very, very good at your job. And I have to thank my lucky stars for that.

Barbra Finer - We were extremely comfortable in relying on your expertise and local market knowledge. As out-of-state buyers, we needed skilled representation to be sure we weren’t trying to buy something with hidden future problems, Barbra – you are in a league of our own.
You are an extremely good communicator. The real estate market is time sensitive, so we needed a real estate agent who would let us know quickly where we stood with our search process. You did a superb job of communication with us, being proactive and keeping us well informed.
You are an extremely good listener. We always felt that you had our needs as one of your top priorities. You quickly picked up on Katherine’s desired style of a second home which was critical in our working relationship in order to make us feel supported and healthy.
You are extremely organized and display a great attention to detail. You communicated with us in a variety of modes (by phone, via e-mail, and even by FaceTime when showing me what sort of traffic noise level one property would have). We can’t say enough about how well you paid attention to our specific needs.
Your honesty as a real estate agent is where you really shine. We needed an agent who would tell us like it is – and you did – even if it happened to be something which wasn’t easy to hear. We can’t thank you enough for laying out what we, as buyers, could expect through the search and purchasing processes.
And finally, you have a great work ethic. And it was not just about you putting in a lot of time for us (which we know you did). It was about you working smart for us, doing whatever was necessary to help us finally find a vacation home we wanted. But even more important, your service, guidance and willingness to help us after closing was invaluable. So we view you as much more than just our real estate agent. We consider you our friend. This experience with you was a wonderful and rewarding partnership and we look forward to staying in touch with you over the years to come.

Lorri Lewis is fantastic. We were new to area and had been looking for about a year with her help. If you are planning on moving to Bluffton, SC or any nearby area, we would definitely recommend Lorri!

My husband and I had the good fortune of first meeting Nancy Love many years ago when we walked into the Sea Pines Realty office in Harbour Town. We were enamored with Sea Pines, curious about the real estate market on Hilton Head, and thinking about the future. Nancy graciously answered our questions and shared her years of island knowledge. That first meeting was the beginning of a business relationship and personal friendship that has flourished. She continues to share her market knowledge and savvy real estate insights. And is always a friend. Over the years, Nancy has helped my family purchase more than one "perfect" home. Today, sitting on my lanai over-looking the marsh, I know I'm lucky to have found her. I would gladly and enthusiastically recommend Nancy to anyone considering purchasing real estate on Hilton Head. She is always diligent and mindful of her clients wants and needs and always finds them their perfect piece of this island paradise.
