ZillowVERIFIEDWe have worked with The Oliver Team for nearly 20 years and have trusted them with every property purchase we've made on Hilton Head. Their knowledge of the local market is exceptional, and they consistently make the buying process smooth and stress-free. From handling negotiations and scheduling inspections to recommending a reputable law firm and ensuring all paperwork was completed on time, they managed every detail with professionalism and care. We highly recommend Ken, Clay and Ann to anyone considering buying or selling property on Hilton Head. Their expertise, responsiveness, and commitment to their clients are second to none.
ZillowVERIFIEDI cant recommend Clay and Ken Oliver highly enough! They were absolutely wonderful to work with throughout my recent condo purchase and truly made the entire experience feel seamless from start to finish. Their knowledge of the Hilton Head Island market was incredibly valuable, and I always felt like I had experienced, trustworthy people in my corner. They were responsive, patient with my questions, and excellent at explaining each step of the process so I always knew what to expect. When it came time to negotiate and work through the details of the purchase, they advocated for me and made sure everything stayed on track. What I appreciated most was how personal the experience felt. Clay and Ken genuinely cared about making sure I felt confident in my decision, not just closing a deal. Five stars across the board for local knowledge, expertise, communication, responsiveness, and negotiation. I'm so grateful for their help and would absolutely recommend Clay and Ken to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Hilton Head area!
ZillowVERIFIEDClay Oliver listed and sold our Villa in April. Clay demonstrated a positive perspective, eagerness and knowledge of the Palmetto Dunes that set him apart from the other realtors we interviewed. He also had a clear understanding of what was important to prospective buyers and positioned our property accordingly. In a market everyone said was softening, Clay was able to bring a serious buyer to the table. 3 Days from engaging Clay as our agent, we had a bona fide offer in hand and closed on time. We highly recommend Clay.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen,Clay and Ann are an amazing team. I had known Ken for years but this was the first time I was able to work with him on a sale of a property. Our sale was not expected to be an easy one - an Estate sale of a home that needed a lot of work and was being sold as is. The first day it went on the market we had showings. The communication from the team was excellent. They shared feedback and suggestions. The house sold in approximately 3 weeks!!! I would recommend them highly,
ZillowVERIFIEDKen and Clay (along with their support team) did an outstanding job in positioning our cherished beachfront home for sale, implementing an aggressive marketing strategy with efficiency and effectiveness with little effort on our part as the sellers. Their efforts produced a full-price sale offer in an unheard-of time period of just a single day of being on the market. Their subsequent professionalism and assistance leading up to the closure of this transaction produced a flawless transition and closing process. We placed our trust with a valuable part of our lives with them, and Ken and Clay delivered. We could not have been more pleased with choosing their team to help with this important decision for our family. And we have chosen to have them assist in the purchase of our new replacement residence on Hilton head Island as we go forward. Why would we seek anyone else?
ZillowVERIFIEDWe have bought and sold four homes with Ken and Clay. Such great people and their knowledge of Hilton Head and Bluffton cannot be matched. Ann Kiewiet also works with Ken and Clay and is incredibly responsive and helpful. Great team and wonderful results! Highly recommend.
ZillowVERIFIEDWe met Ken Oliver fifteen years ago when we purchased our first home on Hilton Head. Over the years we have viewed many homes and properties with Ken and Clay and sometimes we bump into their family at social events on the island! Ken Oliver and his team helped us purchase a new property in Bluffton. Ann Kiewiet was extremely helpful with all paperwork, and instrumental in coordinating a closing date that was ideal for both parties. Ken and Ann work seamlessly together and often work overtime to get the deal done. We appreciate everything they did during our purchase and closing!
ZillowVERIFIEDKen, Clay, and Ann were very helpful through this process, the team was proactive in reaching out to me and responsive with any questions I had. I would recommend choosing them if you are buying or selling on Hilton Head Island.
ZillowVERIFIEDWhen I decided to move to Hilton Head my brother said not to worry. He had the perfect agent for me. Clay Oliver. One could say this is a family affair! Clay helped my nephew twice wtiih selling an purchasing and found the perfect home for our sister in law. So, when it was time for me to prchse, we went to the Oliver team, family! From day one I felt like Clay was in fact family. He is personable, professional, responsive and thorough. Clay and his team did not miss a beat, and I had found a home and moved in within 8 weeks. Thank you Clay and Ann, it has been a great and smooth experience!
ZillowVERIFIEDClay and Ann were a dream to work with. They helped us purchase an off-market property in Bluffton and guided us through every step. Their professionalism, local knowledge, and responsiveness made what could?ve been a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward. They were always quick to answer questions, kept things moving behind the scenes, and truly looked out for our best interests. Highly recommend working with them!
ZillowVERIFIEDWe recently purchased a home in Bluffton, SC while still living in Massachusetts, and the team at Dune Real Estate made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We worked with Clay and he was absolutely exceptional, flexible, and incredibly friendly. His deep knowledge of the local market helped us feel confident every step of the way, even from a distance. Clay went above and beyond to accommodate our schedule, answer questions promptly, and provide honest guidance with a personal touch. It?s rare to find someone so dedicated and easy to work with. If youre buying in the area, Dune Real Estate and Clay especially are an outstanding choice.
ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I recently completed our third transaction with the Ken Oliver Team and it just keeps getting better! In 2016 we chose Ken to help us purchase our condo in Palmetto Dunes. He then represented the full price sale in 2022. In January, 2025 we had the pleasure of working with Clay to purchase our home in Palmetto Dunes! The entire team, Ken, Clay and Ann have long standing experience and knowledge of the island, while providing current real estate market conditions as well. Communication with them is responsive and reliable. Their integrity and professionalism is exemplary. Ken, Clay and Ann will be dedicated to make your purchase become a reality, while at the same time being a pleasure to get to know. We recommend them highly as real estate professionals and just good people as well!
ZillowVERIFIEDTrust is the first thought that comes to mind. Ken and son Clay are very likable gentlemen who know the market and steered us in a direction we were comfortable with. Even after the sale, routine follow up on how all was going.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen, Clay and Ann, Dunes Real Estate, are a formidable sales & marketing team. We quickly learned that much had changed since our last real estate experience. We were grateful for their knowledge and seasoned approach analyzing our property, preparing it for sale and being able to correctly position it in this unique housing market. What they did was extraordinary! When all was said and done, our property was listed and sold in one day. We wouldn?t hesitate to recommend them to anyone thinking of selling or buying a property in the Hilton Head/Bluffton area. We have sold and purchased several homes over the years and have never experienced this level of professionalism. Their complete approach - with advice before, during and even after the sale - was refreshing. If you are looking for an exceptional real estate experience, we highly recommend The Oliver Team.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen and Clay Oliver were a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process of selling my home. They are highly knowledgable, professional and went above and beyond to close on the sale of my home. I appreciated their prompt responses to my questions, and their professional advice. I would absolutely recommend Ken and Clay.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen, Ann & Clay were always there for me. I believe communication is key when you are selling a home. There was never a time when this team was available to help me. We had a unique property and Ken took days to analyze the market and brought back a detailed analysis that took into account our unique features, age of our home and the current market. The result was a sale before the home even made it to MLS. When you are selling a home in this day and age, you need a partner not an agent.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen made the entire process of buying a new home enjoyable. He was professional, responsive, and helped to negotiate the best possible purchase price. Anytime a problem arose, Ken and his team were quick to find a solution. His relationships with members of the Hilton Head community were also a great asset. I highly recommend Ken for anyone looking to sell or purchase a home in the Hilton Head area.
ZillowVERIFIEDI reached out to Ken at Dunes Real Estate after Zillow helped me learn that he been involved in multiple sales in Palmetto Dunes, my neighborhood of choice. Despite failing on two purchase attempts Ken never lost interest in working with me - and the third try proved successful. It was during the complex post-contract processes where Ken and Ann (another Dunes realtor who greatly assisted) shined the most. They helped me put together my closing team, which included a local law firm, lender, insurance agency, and home inspection company who all knew and appreciated working with well-experienced Ken and his team.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen was exceptional to work with. He is very knowledgeable about the area, comes well prepared, and works diligently to understand your individual tastes. His prior research on each of the homes we viewed allowed us to quickly make decisions. He is also meticulous around all the details all the way through closing. Also, his support team was excellent.
ZillowVERIFIEDZillowVERIFIEDClay Oliver was outstanding. Very knowledgeable of the area and all the neighborhoods and clubs. Provided valuable insights as we zeroed in on the areas we were interested in, and was a great resource during the offer, negotiation and closing phases of the transaction. Clay was a pleasure to work with. Very professional and personable, patient and insightful. I highly recommend working with Clay as well as Ken. In addition Ann Kiewiet added a great deal of value during the inspection and closing process. Overall the Dunes Real Estate Team was outstanding !!!! Thank you !!!!
ZillowVERIFIEDWe had worked with Ken years ago to purchase our condo. We were searching from afar and we trusted him to be our eyes and ears. He did not disappoint. When the time came to sell, we reached out to Ken without hesitation. It was a pleasure to work with him again. He gave us great advice every step of the way and lead us through the process professionally. He and his team were quick to respond to every question and concern. We wouldnt use any other realtor on the island.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen and Clay guided us through the entire process skillfully and professionally. They kept us informed and provided great suggestions as they accumulated feedback from customers and agents. The marketing materials they prepared were exceptional. Most important of all, the home sold quickly. Great job.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen Oliver and Anne Kiewiet found us the perfect villa at Queens Grant! Ken is very professional, knowledgeable and has an easy going personality. His years of experience helped us through the many twists and turns involved in finding a villa perfect for us. His vast experience and many connections helped us avoid any risks and made the process flow smoothly. He is great and we would definitely recommend him highly to anyone. Anne was also excellent and worked with Ken as a great team. She was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable of the business/technical aspects of the purchase. Together as a team they truly understood what we were looking for to find our dream villa.
ZillowVERIFIEDWhen I contacted Ken Oliver to sell my Hilton Head Island condo, I not only wanted a successful sale, but it needed to be a stress-free event. Of all the property I have bought and sold over the years, this was by far the easiest sale ever! Ken Oliver not only has long term experience in Real Estate sales, hes honest, thorough, reliable, and best of all handles every little annoying thing that arises in a Real Estate sale with calm professionalism. I highly recommend Ken and his team.
ZillowVERIFIEDVery professional, knowledgeable and kind! He helped to make the sale a great experience, I highly recommend Ken! Always responded to my calls and questions very promptly
ZillowVERIFIEDKen Oliver handled our lot sale with extreme professionalism and integrity. He was responsive and always available to help with questions and to provide explanations throughout the process. Clay Oliver was equally helpful and kind. We would recommend them to help you with any real estate needs.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen was a pleasure to work with. Professional in every manor. The house sold in a very short period of time and through his expertise and knowledge, the closing went smoothly. If I am ever in the Hilton head market again, I will absolutely contact Ken and have him find out next dream home.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen, Clay and Ann were were great to work with in selling our home. Very knowledgeable of area providing the right valuation. Easy to work with and always available. Also helped with many options of available home opportunities in area to relocate. Very thankful for Ann being able to schedule a quality builder/contractor to handle the inspection repairs needed on time.
ZillowVERIFIEDWhen my husband and I put our Hilton Head home on the market, it was our second home, we had tenants with a lease that was not over until March of 2022, and we live a few hundred miles away from Hilton Head. The thought of coordinating any needed repairs long distance, was not something I was looking forward to. We really didnt know how it would all work out. Luckily we had Ken as our agent. The house sold in two days! Ken and his team coordinated the agreed upon repairs, and took away all the stress of selling a home. Ken and Ann were an absolute pleasure to work with and could not have been more pleased.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen and Clay and Ann were an amazing team for us! As non-locals, they stayed in constant contact with us. We could not be any happier with our new home!!
ZillowVERIFIEDWe have worked with Ken and Ann on both the buying and selling sides, and cant recommend them highly enough. Kens extensive knowledge of Hilton Head in general, and Hilton Head real estate in particular, is truly amazing. He was able to guide us through the process and its challenges without missing a beat. Its just a bonus that hes a solid, honest, positive person, too!
ZillowVERIFIEDWhen we decided to purchase a home at Hilton Head, we contacted Ken Oliver. The entire experience could not have been better. Ken was very personable, knowledgeable and professional during the whole process. We would absolutely recommend Ken for any real estate needs.
ZillowVERIFIEDWhen we decided to sell our house we asked our attorney which agent was the best, with which, to list a high end property. Without hesitation, she recommended Ken Oliver. That recommendation was spot on. Ken is competent, knowledgeable, personable and knows Hilton Head Island real estate like the back of his hand. And, his assistant, Ann Kiewiet, is a tremendous asset from the beginning of the sales process to the very end. Bottom line is Ken got the job done. Marketing was targeted and specific. House sold exactly 100 days from the day it was listed until closing documents were signed by the buyers. House sold for 97% of the asking price. If we had another house to sell we would, absolutely, list it with Ken. In addition, my wife and I feel like we have two new good friends in Ken and Ann. Mr. and Mrs. Ted Kyzer
ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with Ken was a pleasure. We had now problems. Ken was attentive, responsive and diligent. He listened to what I had to say, Was available to answer any questions I had. When he said he would have something done at a certain date, he always followed through. What more can you ask for. Markey Realty
ZillowVERIFIEDKen was right on for selling price,we received 5K over asking in one day.Also his knowledge of the Palmetto Hall market is excellent.The support team that Ken has is very helpful and available to help when asked. I would highly recommend Ken if you are selling your house.
ZillowVERIFIEDKen and Ann were wonderful. All my anxieties about selling my house were handled with kid gloves. Ken even showed up on my doorstep with a bouquet of flowers on a day I was having a particularly emotional time And the best news was that the house sold in 5 days at the asking price. I cant think of anything that would have made selling my house any easier!
