Choosing Among Hilton Head Real Estate Agents
Start with where you want to live. The island’s gated resorts and plantations, its beachfront condos and the neighborhoods along Main Street each have agents who sell mostly there, and they know the dues, the club rules and which streets flood. Ask an agent how many homes they sold in that community last year. Our Hilton Head neighborhoods and HOA fees pages help you narrow the list first.
Expect to sign a written agreement with a buyer’s agent before you tour homes together: it sets out what the agent does for you and how they are paid, so read it and ask what happens if you part ways. Buying new from a builder? Bring your agent, or name them, on your first visit to the model home. Our Hilton Head home builders page lists the builders.
If the home will be a second home or a rental, ask whether the agent works with owners who rent. See second homes on Hilton Head for what that involves.
