ZillowVERIFIEDKathy was instrumental in our success of finding the right condo in the right location at the right price. Kathy works very hard no matter if it's day or night, weekend, doesn't matter. Given our 5 star positive experience, Kathy at Collins Group Realty will be the first person we call the next time we are buying or selling real estate on Hilton Head Island.

ZillowVERIFIED After our father passed away suddenly and unexpectedly, our family was desperately trying to sort through the fog of grief and needed a trusted partner in order to sell Dad's home in Bluffton. Ryan and was able to meet with us on short notice and provide the comfort and knowledge that only an experienced agent could offer.Even though our family was not local to the area, Ryan and Collins Group took care of us like we were their own. Ryan was able to sell Dad's home in a manner that allowed us both closure as well as satisfaction that we achieved the full market value of the property. I cannot recommend Ryan and Collins Group highly enough; you would be hard pressed to find a better agent or broker to list your property.

ZillowVERIFIED Howard was very personable, knowledgable and professional.

ZillowVERIFIED From the beginning we were so impressed with the process Chip uses. He has a member of his team helping to guide you through every step of the way. We moved out of state and Chip and his team took care of anything and everything to help with the sale of our home. Chip and the Collins group team are incredibly professional, responsive and so pleasant to deal with. We would recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the area.

ZillowVERIFIED Howard helped us find and purchase a condominium on Hilton Head Island. We allocated a week on island for our search. He was thorough, prepared, and an excellent listener. He was also a savvy negotiator when it came time to close the deal on our selected property and offered some excellent advice. The entire Collins Group team was topnotch. They're local to the island and it shows in the way they conduct their business. WE recommend them without hesitation.

ZillowVERIFIED We were so lucky to have been referred to Collins Group Realty here in Bluffton SC. We started to work with Joan Weaver online, for her to get a feel for the style/type of home we were searching for. She was very knowledgeable about the area. We made a few trips to Bluffton to see those special homes we loved online. Joan had patience with us as her clients...we never felt rushed or pressured in any way. With my husband and I being so particular and specific about what we were looking for, we were so grateful she was our agent. Id recommend her highly.

ZillowVERIFIED I was introduced to Joan through a good friend who had purchased a property and Joan was their agent. Joan took the time to understand what I was and was not looking for in a property, and, was very patient, as I was in no hurry to purchase - wanted to wait "for the right place to come along". She did a terrific job of staying in touch and helping finalize a deal when the right place did come along ! Very knowledgeable of the area. In addition, the support staff at Collins was terrific !

ZillowVERIFIED This was by far the smoothest and most professional real estate transaction from start to finish we have ever had. Being a business instructor myself, I knew how critical it was to engage the best possible real estate group when selling or buying property. All of my research pointed to the Collins Group Reality (CGR) and wow was I right! Shortly after calling CGR, Chip Collins scheduled and met us at our residence to go over the game plan. Soon after this the most professional aerial and internal pictures of our residence was taken and given to us for review. A few days after that we went live on the MLS and two days later we had two offers in hand. Chip and his team were in direct contact with us every step of the way. My wife and I have had some decent real estate transactions in our days and this was the first one we had with CGR. This experience definitely takes the cake, goes into the EXCELLENT category, and has been the best one yet.If you want the very best, look no further than the Collins Group Reality!!!

ZillowVERIFIED Andrea is an outstanding agent. We have been on the buying and selling ends of real estate in the Hilton Head area and Andrea always has been wonderful! She makes either process as easy as possible and has great support behind her at Collins Group Realty.

They were attentive to all our requests (many....sorry Kathy and Karen) and went above and beyond for us.Would highly recommend them to anyone in need of a realtor in the Hilton Head area.

ZillowVERIFIED This is our second transaction with the Collins Realty Group (both buying and most recently selling). I wouldnt pick any other group in HHI. They are extremely helpful and knowledgeable in all aspects of this process! Their entire team is A+.

ZillowVERIFIED Recently engaged Chip's team to sell a condo for the estate of a family member. Since I'm not local, I had no idea who to use but the condo management company rep at the property immediately suggested Collins Group as the best in the area. Chip's team was able to get into the property within 24 hours of my first call to make an assessment. His buy-side team was already actively working with someone looking for something similar to our property. I'm not sure the property even hit the MLS and we had an asking price offer. Unbelievable. Chip's team suggested a local attorney who could get the closing pulled together to meet the buyer's tight timeframe. The Collins Group coordinated perfectly with the attorney and everything worked out without a hitch. Highly recommended. Everyone I met was courteous and helpful. Excellent execution.

ZillowVERIFIED We wish we could give Fred more than a five-star review. He is a great realtor and an even better person. He connected immediately with what we were looking for and found the perfect home for us. He and the Collins team made the process as easy as it could be. You will have a forever friend with Fred. He is the best!!!

ZillowVERIFIED I lived out of state during the whole process of buying my house. Fred went above and beyond to help make the whole process as easy and stress free for me. He is a honest, sincere, and personable individual. Listens to buyers likes and dislikes. Works hard to please the buyer.

ZillowVERIFIED We told Fred exactly what we were looking for (and we were very picky about certain things), and he definitely delivered! The process with him was so smooth and personal. He responded to my questions very quickly and never left us wondering if we made the right choice with him. If I ever relocate in the area, he will definitely be my go-to whether to buy or to sell!

ZillowVERIFIED In the purchase of our new home in Sun City Hilton Head, my husband and I consider ourselves very lucky to have been supported and guided by Bill Weis of Collins Group Realty. Every step of the way, Bill has demonstrated himself to be most knowledgeable, professional and protective of our interests. One often hears of sales representatives being active in the pre-sale process but not nearly as available post-sale. Not so with Bill Weis. Bill has been extremely accessible, attentive and responsive. From coordinating with our builder to recommending contractors to helping us in setting up utilities. He has made himself available to us in the many instances where we ourselves are not on location to handle matters. We would highly recommend Bill Weis to anyone who is looking for a property expert in the Bluffton area. Purchasing a home can be a stressful experience; Bill has been reassuring, resourceful and kind. It has been a true pleasure to work with Bill; and if we ever move again, Bill will be a part of our move!

ZillowVERIFIED Bill was very helpful throughout the entire process of selling our home. He gave us lots of options about listings and home value but he never pushed us to make decisions and he encouraged us to think about each decision before we settled on an option. Selling a home is never easy but Bill and the entire Collins Group made it a very pleasant experience.

ZillowVERIFIED I first met Chip almost 20 years ago when I moved from New York and had only one week to find my primary home on Hilton Head Island. He was able to help me complete the task with the utmost professionalism. I continued to reach out to him when purchasing rental properties, when helping my Mom purchase a condo when she moved here and most recently with the sale of her condo.I have complete trust in his knowledge and expertise and recommend him highly. He has a very pleasant personality and is able to make you feel very comfortable throughout the process of both purchase and sale.

ZillowVERIFIED We only had a day and a half to view properties in Hilton Head/Bluffton area. Velinda Fisher had been sending us views and notes of homes here for several months. Thanks to Velindas knowledge of the different areas we were able to optimize our time. See several interesting homes including the one we have just moved into. She handled all negotiations and the Collins Group made the closing administration go smoothly. By far the easiest real estate process we have ever gone though. Great job Velinda!

ZillowVERIFIED Fred Hogshead at Collins Group was phenomenal to work with. We were planning on relocating to SC and wanted to see homes on the Friday after July 4. His office was closed but he made himself available and spent the entire day showing us around. His follow thru and responsiveness was fantastic.

ZillowVERIFIED We most definitely recommend Bill Weis. We've bought and sold several homes with Bill plus family have used Bill for several more. He's genuine, he's on your side and he knows this area inside out. Bill is particularly good on looking out for construction issues for you, both when buying and selling, so you get the best price with no headaches later. Professional and helpful support staff also make sure your whole experience is smooth. We have absolutely nothing negative to say about Bill or Collins Group Realty.

ZillowVERIFIED We met Velinda via an on-line listing and evolved the relationship to her being our buyers' agent. She is responsive to requests, not pushy in terms of forcing issues, worked to understand our objectives and most of all, promptly set up appointments for showings and was patient through the entire process. She helped to negotiate an excellent deal for us. She worked well with the Collins team for a smooth closing.
