Tourists flock to Charleston every year not only because of the beautiful city and rich historic culture, but because of our beautiful coastline. No two beaches in the Charleston area are they same. Each beach is known for something different, and your experience will be different depending on which Charleston area beach you decide to visit.

Isle of Palms: IOP as many refer to it, is a beautiful beach that is home to the well known Wild Dunes resort. IOP is a popular vacation beach house rental spot for people visiting the Charleston area during the summers. It's also a popular golf destination due to the courses that Wild Dunes has to offer. Front Beach, the main hub of IOP, is full o...

Just as your Doctor or your Attorney continues to further their knowledge of their practice, thru education and seminars, I do as well.

Last week I attended 16 hrs of Negotiating by a highly accredited organization, Negotiation Expertise, LLC . I learned different techniques to getting better results for my clients.  Some of the models studied include, CNE, SAM, BATNA & ZOPA to name a few. Gathering information is most critical for a successful transaction. Applying that information gathered to the Contrast, Exchange and Communication theories is key. The SUCCESS Model is also dissected and psychologically analyzed. I'm ready to work to get your real estate transaction closed for you. I ...

The media has been giving Charleston, South Carolina lots of attention lately. At the end of this past year Conde Nast rated Charleston as the 3rd best destination to travel to in the world and the 1st in the United States. Aside from these two major recognitions Charleston has also made it onto lists such as: best places to retire, best small cities in America, tastiest towns and a magnitude of others.

As if you needed anymore reasons to consider moving to Charleston, SC and why it should be your permanent home, I am going to share with you four of the reasons I often tell clients that Charleston will be the perfect fit.

Searching for a Great Restaurant in Charleston SC to dine is sometimes hard, because they are all unique and wonderful.  My favorite 2 are S.N.O.B (Slightly North of Broad) which offers lunch and dinner. They have the best Gazpacho soup in town. I also enjoy their Lunch and dinners. Always have fresh catch of the day that the chef prepares a wonderful sauce to compliment the fish. Make a Reservation, this place is packed with locals.  Another great New Restaurant is Amen Street, just across the street from SNOB. The have what I think is the Best Shrimp and Grits in town. It has a slight sweet and spicy gravy on top of the very creamy grits. Oodles of fresh shrimp to fill you belly. Makes ...

The Preservation Society of Charleston, SC, of which I am a member, is having their fall tours of historic homes and gardens which began on Sept. 23, and runs thru October 23rd. For tours, tickets and information go to www.preservationsociety.org .  The Tours are in the evening on Thursday and Friday evenings 6:00pm to 9:00PM and Saturday and Sunday from 2-5:00PM.  The tickets are $45.00 per person and are well worth the tour of at least 6 homes and a few gardens. Sometimes the tours include more homes. They rotate houses in different areas, such as King Street, Charlotte Street, South Battery, Upper Tradd Street, Queen Street, East Battery, Meeting Street and Lagare Street to name a few....
