Whether you’re buying or selling a home, whom you choose as your real estate broker or real estate brokerage makes all the difference in the world – whether in a buyer’s market or seller’s market, bubble or bust. It is important that they be a licensed realtor. This means they will have an understanding of how to value luxury, historical, or other specialized properties. In Charleston, real estate agent Lee Keadle gets my vote for the best. He has helped me buy and sell four homes, and each time I have sold for more than I asked and paid less than was asked for each home – truly a midas touch.
If I had to pick my favorite true southern city, I’d have to pick Charleston. The historic waterfront, the fantastic restaurants and shopping, and the beautiful weather all make Charleston a lovely city in which to reside. What’s more, Charleston real estate won’t set you back much more than comparable real estate in, say, Savannah, where you won’t even get beachfront or waterfront. Whether it’s a historic plantation-style house or a condo near the college, Charleston real estate is worth every penny.
