Testimonials

“Mary Clark, Thanks so much for your help in the recent sale of our condo and the purchase of our new “home” in Palmetto Dunes. Your experience and knowledge, especially of the Palmetto Dunes area, was a decided factor in the choice of our home. Because our main residence is out of state, your list of real estate attorneys, home inspectors, and eventually renovation contractors, was a great help in expediting the transaction(s). You coordinated everything with integrity and professionalism. It has been our pleasure to work with you. ”

In particular, they have offered many suggestions to enhance out home...We strongly recommend them as professional and caring agents.”

“Bart Whiteman, Thank you for finding a property that is absolutely perfect for us. No other realtor could possibly be as caring, and professional as you. Certainly, no one would have been so patient after so many years. I think we started looking with you about 13 years ago. You showed us every type of property and gave us numerous insights into the climate of real estate on Hilton Head Island. You found us the right property at the right price. You were helpful, upbeat, and cheerful throughout every step of the process. The support and help you gave use after the closing was more than we ever expected. You are the best there is. We are proud to have you as a realtor and a friend. ”

“Hello Dunes Marketing Group: My wife and I met John Robinson two years ago while vacationing on Hilton Head Island. After many years of vacations on the Island, we decided to become owners. John was one of several realtors with whom we spoke, but John was clearly the most responsive and attentive. Over the past two years, we have now purchased two properties on Hilton Head Island. During the process, John was not only helpful, he was also knowledgeable about the real estate market and how certain properties fit into our real estate choices. John clearly spent the time to assist us in our search and made solid recommendations. John was organized and stayed in touch with us every step of the way as we closed on transactions from outside the state. Not only did John help with his experience before and during the process, he continued his level of professionalism even long after the closing. Thankfully, we have John as a trusted and reliable resource. More importantly, we have John as a friend on the Island! ”

“Since our first Hilton Head real estate purchase in 2000, we have not considered working with any other Real Estate Agent except Bart Whiteman at Dunes Marketing when buying or selling in Hilton Head or Bluffton. We have made a total of seven real estate purchases/sales during that time. Bart's patience, guidance and honesty, as well as his knowledge and experience, were the reasons we returned to him each time. We were also impressed with his backing from Dunes Marketing and the people we came into contact there. Should we ever make another purchase (or sell) in this area, we will work with Bart again. ”

“Angela Althoff, I want to thank you again for the time and energy that you devoted to helping us search for a home in the Hilton Head area. It certainly was our top choice. Your professional and caring attitude made our search so enjoyable. I absolutely mean it when I say that you are the best realtor in the country! ”

“Doug and Trish Weaver did an outstanding job representing us as our Realtor. They began working with us a full year before we chose our home. Over that period of time, they worked tirelessly to ensure that we had a full picture of the island neightborhoods, and helped us to match our dreams with the right home. Their knowledge of the island is second to none. They helped us to negotiate a great sale, and we were able to close on our new home while out-of-state. They have both continued to help us even though our sale was completed a few months ago. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home on Hilton Head Island. ”

“Mark Lynch, I just wanted to thank you again for all the extra effort you took to sell my villa so quickly and for arranging a lease-back from the buyer while my new home was under construction. Your prompt and professional attention gave me the peace-of-mind I needed. I couldn't have asked for a smoother transition. ”

George Sloan  – Hilton Head Island, SC

“If you are seraching for a realty team that is not only knowledgeable about the area & true professionals in every sense of the word, but also caring, honest, available and willing to go the extra mile to accomodate their clients, then I highly recommend Glenn and Jane Handley. I owned two real estate offices and managed several others over a 29 year period in NJ and I have seldom run across a team like the Handley's. They make buying and selling your property a pleasure instead of a hassle. Call them and I know you won't be disappointed!”

“Hello Dunes Marketing Group: Recently I purchased a piece of property at Treetops Villas on Hilton Head Island. I obtained your agent, John Robinson, as my Realtor. Working in the retail industry and owning two businesses of my own, I realize that what is predominately heard are complaints. I wanted to give you a compliment and let you know that John Robinson is an asset to your company and did a tremendous job for me. John went above and beyond helping me purchase this piece of property. John is very efficient; when we needed help, he got it done immediately. John helped me in several areas and made recommendations when I needed them, and they were superb. John was very organized and always had quick answers for my questions. John made this entire experience run smoothly and if there were problems that arose, he was “Johnny On The Spot” to fix them! I was very impressed with his performance before, during, and after the transaction. Being a new resident of Hilton Head Island, I left this experience knowing that if I had any questions or needed recommendations, John would gladly help me. My goal is to eventually have my villa increase in value, and I can assure you I will use Dunes Marketing Group. This is because of John Robinson. My family and I thank you as John found us exactly what we wanted and made it such a pleasant experience. ”

“Asking Linda O'Neill to be my Realtor was one of the smartest things I've done. Linda’s attention to detail, extensive knowledge and expert advice helped make the entire process easy and enjoyable. Linda's personal attention made me feel as if I were her most important client. I feel fortunate to have found a real estate agent with such integrity, expertise and generosity of spirit.”

“Paul Daniels, on behalf of the Lowes and the Rotkows, we want to thank you for all of your help in acquiring the condo. During my 30 years of law practice, I have dealt with many real estate brokers and agents, but none better than you.

“Julie Mariotte, now that we are settled into our new home, we wanted to take a moment to let you know how much we appreciate all you have done to make our long distance move to Hilton Head Island much easier. We have bought and sold homes for 30 or so years and you are the FIRST Realtor who did it RIGHT !!! You showed us exactly what we wanted to see. There was no pressure by you, just a great knowledge of the island and property prices that helped us make the decision to buy. You went beyond the call of duty by showing us homes late into the evening because of our short visits. You made the long distance paperwork effortless, with you here and we in Scottsdale. Then finding us help on moving day was more than we could have asked for. Thanks again for all you continue to do for us. We now have our first new friend in Hilton Head Island. ”

Joe & Mary Beth  – Scottsdale, AZ

“Trish Weaver had an uncanny ability to understand just what we were looking for. She found homes to show us that met our wants and needs as if she could read our minds. It took just over a day, to find just the right place. Since the sale, she's still been there with advice and information about renovations, repairs, and just plain island living. In other words, she became, not just our realtor, she's become a good friend.”

“It occured to me that I have never taken the time to tell you just how much Grace and I appreciate Erline Smith. Erline miraculously guided me through my first 1031 exchange...to an amiable conclusion. I've got to tell you that it was more than her sweet southern charm working to get that deal done. She is a dear friend and an extraordinary Realtor. You're lucky to have her on your team. We're looking forward to our next purchase when we actually become "snow birds" and are able to spend out winter months there. (Letter to Bill Baldwin)”

“This is just a short note to make you aware of the excellent service that we received from Mary Lynn Finn during our recent purchase of a villa in Palmetto Dunes...From the time that we first met Mary Lynn, she worked diligently to answer our many questions, and provide information on prospective properties and the Hilton Head real estate market. Purchasing property from "out of state" can be a confusing and difficult experience. Marry Lynn's efforts went a long way towards taking much of the stress out of the process...We are greatly appreciative of her efforts & would not hesitate to use her on any future transactions in the Hilton Head area. ”
