TOP AGENT
Lugoff, SC
2026
Lugoff, SC
Eric was exceptional. It was a military move and I was in San Antonio when I found out Ill be moving to South Carolina. Tried one agent before Eric and it didnt work out, the agent wanted me to do more than I could from where I was, so my wife advised we tried Eric who she found online. Eric started working with me immediately, before I knew it I knew exactly which mortgage company to use, what my best options would be and how to get it done. He (Eric) would go to houses I found online and record a video of it and as he would record a video he would actively look for any imperfections or problems the property may have. Finally we decided to go with a brand new home and Eric took care of everything, explained us how the process worked, got the builder to put up a fence for us and arranged everything. This was by far the easiest purchase ever. I knew I had a good home waiting for me before I even got to South Carolina. Our family is very satisfied with the purchase and the service we received from Eric. Professional and caring and a true representative in every sense of the word. I will definitely contact him again if we ever need a new property in SC or if we ever decide to sell. 10/10!
Eric is a true professional and he knows what hes doing! Its not too often you find someone you trust to do everything they say theyre going to do! I was able to really concentrate on other things while Eric handled every aspect that he could on his end. He made my transition from one state to another as smooth as it possibly could go! I would definitely use he services again, hes very experienced and easy to work with!
Eric helped me purchase my first home and made it a positive and memorable experience. He worked around the clock to help me find the perfect property. He was recommended to me by a friend who knew him to be an expert of the Columbia area and market. Eric always picks up the phone and answers any questions or concerns. He set-up daily check-ins to keep an open line of communication and went above and beyond during negotiations. Eric truly cares about each of his clients and continues to offer advice and support even after closing.
If youre looking to purchase a new home, Eric Simons is the man to go see! He is full of knowledge. I recently moved from OH and needed to find a home quickly before starting my new job. So it was very comforting that he was able to tell me the good and bad of the geographic areas and houses. I told him what I was looking for and he delivered. It made selecting a home quick and easy for me and my family. Thank goodness for his negotiating skills because he was able to get things done to and for the house that I wouldnt have thought of asking for until it was too late. He reached out 2 months after purchasing my home to make sure I received my Deed and gave me the information on who to reach out to if I hadnt. I truly appreciated all his help from beginning to end and would definitely recommend him to all my family and friends.
Renee Royall and Eric Simmons are the dream team! We moved out of state prior to the sale of our house, and they helped make the entire process seamless for us. Prior to listing our house, they able to assist with coordinating repairs needed quickly and efficiently. They were fast to respond to any questions we had and eased our minds while we were far away. We appreciate the constant work they put in, including staging, beautiful listing photos inculding video and were ecstatic when we sold for over asking! We wouldnt hesitate to highly recommend them to all of our family and friends!!
3:56 ( Notes Review . ~ We just sold our home on April 2023 in Columbia, SC and had the pleasure to work with Renee Royal and her partner Eric Simon.

My initial call to Renee Royal was to ask about one particular property listing that she had posted for her team, the Royall Simons Group. After just 5 minutes into our conversation, I knew that we had found the perfect realtor! It was a Friday afternoon and Renee spent more than 2 hours on the phone with my husband and I discussing the market and real estate listings. She even took us on a virtual tour - that same night - of the house that caught my eye and prompted my call to Renee. We bought plane tickets and flew into Columbia one week later. Renee and her partner Eric had set aside 4 full days to show us homes! Before we set foot on SC soil, Renee and Eric listened closely to our needs, scoured the homes that we might be interested in and developed a working plan to exceed our expectations. As a result, they Exceeded All Expectations!! They know the areas, they know that homes (or preview them) and maintain solid relationships with other agents. We were giving feedback in our journey and Renee and Eric always listed to what we wanted in a home. We have bought and sold many homes over the past three decades, but never experienced the superior level of customer service given by the Royall Simon Team. We ended up finding our dream home, submitted an offer and signed a contract before we left! We would highly recommend Renee Royall and Eric Simons at Keller Williams to anybody searching for a home in the Columbia area.
Renee and Eric did an outstanding job to help sell my home in Columbia SC. Everything was handled in a professional and a timely manner. They made it easy for me living so far away. Communication was excellent. Everything was handled remotely which was perfect for my needs. Thanks Royal Simons Group for a fantastic experience. You are a five star operation. Thank you!
She was involved selling my townhouse . Found her to be very professional , prompt , knowledgeable , and understanding . Best realtor I have worked with in my experience .
The Royall Simons Group has helped me purchase 2 homes and sell another. Eric and Renee are very knowledgeable and super easy to work with. They guided me through everything the entire way when purchasing and when selling. Thank you for everything!
The Royall Simons group was outstanding from start to finish! Their professionalism throughout this process and knowledge of the market is second to none. I appreciated their honesty and loyalty! I have used them on both the selling and buying side, and highly recommend their team. Thanks for such a smooth process!
Susie is a real go-getter! She was knowledgeable about our preferred homes & the buying process. She was super quick & responsive to ALL our questions without being condescending or annoyed. She had excellent communication and always kept us in the loop with all parties involved, which put us at ease. Her friendly personality made us feel as if we were her only clients & getting a home we loved was a top priority. She even assured our closing date was earlier than expected so we could celebrate being in our new home prior to Thanksgiving. For this we are thankful. Susie even accompanied us to the attorney's office on closing day! That was above and beyond in our book! We would highly recommend Susie & Keller Williams/Royall Simons to our family and friends serious about getting a great realtor and home! Thank you, Susie, for helping us find a great home and navigate the home buying process! You made our experience delightful!
Made the process incredibly easy. Answered every call and question no matter what time of day. Couldnt have asked for a better experience in terms of selling my house
We are so thankful for Renee and Eric! They helped us sell our house during the pandemic and buy a new home. Their experience made us feel comfortable during the process and took away most of the stress and anxiety of selling and buying a new home. We knew they were always looking out for us and we can't thank them enough!
Such a nice person to work with. I hadn't purchased a new home in over 35 years. i spoke to several other agents and asked them one specific question and she was the only one that got right back to me with an answer. Very pleasant to work with and she will get you the information you need. Found the perfect home for us. I have already recommended her to other friends.
Very dedicated worker very professional I love her grading scale from 1 to 10 awesome realtor And all her feedback questions regarding how we feel about any house that we just viewed. She assist with the process of purchasing our first new home
We tend to shy away from personal reviews but in this case we can't help but offer a sterling review of the Royall Simons real estate group. Our primary point of contact was Renee Royal. Professional, responsive, caring, diligent and spot on with recommendations. These are just some of the adjectives we can use to describe our experience. From the first meeting right to the closing table, Renee was phenomenal as were her assistants during this process. We will surely recommend her services to others. Thanks Renee for your attentiveness - it was a pleasure meeting and working with you. Carol & Ed
I HAD A GREAT EXPERIENCE SELLING MY HOME WITH THE ROYALL SIMONS GROUP. MY HOME SOLD WITHIN 24HRS OF LISTING! FROM START TO FINISH THEY WERE HELPFUL WITH ALL MY QUESTIONS.
Great job. Very helpful and knowledgeable. They worked very hard to sell our home. Price was important and knowledge of the area. Good knowledge on how to negotiate a deal
Eric was easy to get in contact with, attentive, and proactive. He had a lot of information about the area. He also gave good insight on how we should navigate decision making in the process. We enjoyed working with him to find our home!
This was my first time buying a home, I was connected through Eric from my cousin, who also works with Keller Williams. From the first time I spoke with Eric, he was very helpful and informative on the process. He answered all my questions that I had in a timely manner. I would highly recommend Eric to first time home buyers. You will be nothing but highly satisfied with his service.

As a first time buyer, Eric Simon and his staff gave me the confidence I needed to complete the purchase. Very responsive, concern and reassuring of continued support. Excellent service!
We couldnt be happier with Eric Simons and HIGHLY recommend him for your real estate needs. Erics expertise, local knowledge, attention to detail, and desire to go above and beyond to make everything perfect for us is just the beginning. To Eric and his team, thank you so much for a job well done!!
My husband and I worked with Eric in the purchase of our new home in August 2018. We were expecting and knew my starter home would not be functional for a family of five. Eric was very patient with us as we started the process and were nervous about making a move while so many other changes were happening. He listened to all of our needs in a new home, as well as all of our concerns about the process. As we nailed down a location and were looking at new build neighborhoods in the area, Eric was very knowledgeable. We ended up finding the perfect house layout for our family in the perfect location. Though the process was not without the normal challenges, Eric was very responsive and continued to help us address any concerns as they came up. By the time we were closing on our home, I was 8 months pregnant, which presented its own set of challenges. I really feel like Eric went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I felt comfortable from start to finish in the home buying process. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home in the area!
Eric is a very knowledgeable and experienced agent. He answered any and all questions quickly and even was able to provide answers to questions we hadnt thought to ask. The entire process was professional, efficient and we would happily work with Eric again.
In short, Eric is an amazing realtor. My husband and I loved working with him. From the first time we talked until closing and beyond, Eric was responsive, knowledgeable, and overall fantastic to work with. I truly cannot say enough good things about him during the process, and when weve needed recommendations for things like lawn care, plumbing, etc., I ask Eric first because I value and trust his judgment.
Eric was outstanding! Always working to get our house sold - showings, suggestions on little things to make it more appealing, following up afterwards with other agents, etc. Great representative for us. Highly recommended!
Eric was very knowledgeable and responsive and he gave you the information that you needed to hear and not just what you wanted to hear. He knows his stuff.
Eric and his team were great to work with when buying our home. He was very knowledgeable about the home buying process and knew exactly what needed to be done. He was able to navigate us through the process without any delays or issues.

Eric is the best of the best! He did such a fantastic job helping us sell our house and provided such guidance and expertise along the way. The whole process from start to finish was seamless and really exceeded our expectations.
Eric is one of the most responsive agents I have ever met, which was important to us during a tight buyers market period. He usually got us access to houses the same day we inquired about them! He was very thorough througout both the buying and selling process. On the selling side, he gave us many pointers about staging the house and we got it sold within a couple of weeks!
Eric did an amazing job of helping us find our dream home in SC as we planned to move from Baltimore, Maryland. Because many things had to be done long-distance, Eric handled everything in an accurate and timely manner, which made the process much easier and less nerve-wracking for us. Eric is professional, friendly, honest, and extremely knowledgeable (about real-estate and the general Columbia area) so he was able to help us make good decisions during this purchase. I would recommend Eric to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in this area.
Eric helped me purchase this house in 2013. He was so great to work with, I didn't even consider anyone else when it was time to sell. His partner, Renee, went above and beyond in facilitating the sale of my house. She walked me through the entire process, set up repairs and photo/video shoots and even took in my recycle bin when I wasn't there to do it. This team has the professionalism and experience to get the job done and I would highly recommend them to anyone buying or selling.
If you want professional, knowledgeable, and A+ realtors then look no further. Renee and her team is simply the BEST! They mad sure we got to the closing table on our home with no issues. Very smooth transaction! Trust me Renee Royall, Eric Simons and their team are simply the best. Love you guys! We wish nothing but success and great things for you guys in the future. They are the blueprint of what professionalism should be. Thank you!
Renee and Eric were phenomenal!!! We sold our house in 4 days!!! Thank you Renee. Renee is very detailed, thorough and in the ball. Incredible service received.
Renee and her team were awesome! They went out of their way to make selling our home an easy experience. Once my wife and I agreed to have Renee sell our house, she immediately photographed, filmed and listed our home. It was very professional! Renee kept in constant contact with us and walked us through the entire process. Renee educated us with every new step and allowed us to make the most informed decisions. She even helped us find professionals from home inspectors to mortgage lenders. Eric, her partner, was equally fabulous with helping us find our new home. He was very patient and listened to all of our needs. I highly recommend Royall and Simons as your real estate team. As Renee told me in the beginning, you don't get divided service with Royall and Simons, you get twice the expertise! Scott Hoffman
Eric is an excellent realtor with extensive knowledge of the real estate market. He helped sell our home in 6 days and gave us great advice throughout the entire process. He has a passion for real estate and answered all our questions as we bought our new house with him as well. We have known Eric for 6 years and bought 3 houses with him and every time we have had a wonderful experience!
Eric has helped us buy and sell a couple of properties over the years. We have worked with him for 10 years now. He is a very easy to work with realtor that has wonderful knowledge of Columbia and the surrounding area. He has helped many friends of mine and even family. For a truly great, low pressure buying experience, contact Eric and his team!
Eric was patient and took me to see lots of properties. He helped me find a house I love in a neighborhood I wasnt previously looking. He explained the entire process and made it as stress free as possible.
We worked with Eric to buy two houses and sell one. He helped us sell our house in 4 days! He was very flexible with me and my husbands work schedules to find the right house for us. He also recommended a great mortgage broker that helped us get an incredibly low rate VA loan. Absolutely professional and will use again the next time I buy or sell
Eric is quick to respond to me either by phone or text. He is friendly and knowledgeable. Eric has given us good advice in regards to the various properties weve toured together. Ive appreciated his hard work on our behalf.
