There’s a lot of noise in real estate.
Hot takes. Bad advice. Cookie-cutter strategies.
And honestly? I’ve heard some wild things lately.
So here’s me being real real:
I’m not falling for shortcuts, half-baked marketing plans, or advice that sounds more like a TikTok trend than a proven strategy.
Buying or selling in Charleston? You deserve someone who keeps it honest, strategic, and tailored to YOU — not just what the algorithm says.

8 Kitchen Upgrades That Are Practically Guaranteed to Add Value to Your Home
8 Kitchen Upgrades That Are Practically Guaranteed to Add Value to Your Home Want to upgrade your kitchen but unsure which upgrades will add the most value? Here are what industry pros say are the kitchen upgrades that have the biggest ROI.
Ever wonder what happens when a home is priced too high?
Crickets. That’s what happens. 🦗
No showings.
No offers.
Just… silence.
I totally get it — your home means a lot to you. But sentimental value doesn’t always match market value. And buyers? They can tell when something’s overpriced. So can their agents (hi, that’s me 👋).
The reality?
An overpriced home can linger on the market, rack up days, and lead to bigger price cuts later. Which sends buyers running — fast.
Here’s what actually works:
-> Price based on comps
-> Price to attract interest
-> Price to spark competition (yes, multiple offers still happen!)
When you start with strategy, you don’t need to play catch-up later. And that next home you’ve got your eye on? You can go after it with confidence.
Let’s price it right the first time.
Let’s sell it — not sit on it.
Want to know what buyers would actually pay for your home? Comment “VALUE” and I’ll break it down for you — no pressure, just insight. , , , , , , , , , , , ,

If showing houses burned calories, I’d be a fitness influencer by now… but instead, I’m just over here counting steps between listings and snacks between showings 🥤🔑
No gym. Just garages, basements, backyards, and the occasional panic when I can’t find the lockbox.
Real estate isn’t a workout, but let me tell you — it feels like one on days with 7 showings, 3 coffee runs, and one client who wants to “just swing by one more property” , , , , , , , , , , , ,

When people ask me which part of South Carolina I’m from, I don’t just say Charlestob—I say it with pride.
Because here’s why I love living in Charleston and truly think it’s the best part of South Carolina:
– The sense of community here is unmatched—neighbors aren’t just neighbors, they become friends.
– We’ve got the perfect mix of local charm and everyday convenience (yes, Target is nearby).
– And don’t get me started on the food scene… weekend brunch here never disappoints.
