Nobody better than Joe! This is my first purchase in Charleston and Joe helped us every step of the way. His knowledge of this area truly helped us to make so many decisions and I have no words to thank him enough for his guidance. Best realtor I’ve worked with! Thanks Joe

As a first time homebuyer, I can't recommend Joe enough! He walked us through the entire process and made it as easy as possible for us. He is very knowledgeable about home construction which was helpful during home tours and is a great negotiator when it comes time to make an offer.

Our experience with Joe Porter was exceptional. We never met him, but we knew him well (my husband and I live in TN). His extraordinary communication skills provided a trusting environment in which he seemed more concerned for our best interest rather than just a listing. Once we decided to list our two rental properties the process was so smooth. He returned calls within 24 hours, sent videos of the condition of our rental properties, sent listings of similar properties and seemed to be constantly one step ahead. Most important was his knowledge in assessing the real value of our two properties, so it was marketable. He went above and beyond. Thank you, Joe.

I live in another state and recently purchased a property in Charleston. I consider myself lucky that Zillow gave Joe Porter my phone number. My wife and I could immediately tell that Joe is extremely knowledgeable of the Charleston market and knows how to keep a deal moving forward. I warned him that I ask a lot of detailed questions and would rely on his experience and opinions. Joe stays calm in difficult situations, knows how to talk to nervous customers and never let us down throughout the buying process. He answered every question in a professional manner and has assisted us with every issue that has come up. I cannot say enough positive things about Joe Porter and highly recommend him.

Claire and her team were absolutely incredible to work with. We had been searching for a home in Charleston for years with no luck, until we met Claire. We were very specific about our preferred neighborhood on James Island and there simply weren’t many homes available. This meant it was critical to have a realtor and partner in this process who was responsive, reliable, trustworthy and well-networked within the community.I don’t know if we’d ever have managed to close on our family’s home, without her knowledge and expertise. Beyond the actual sale and closing, her team has been a valuable resource for knowing who in the community to contact for homeowner needs. Every single recommendation has turned out to save us time and money.We highly recommend Claire and Lighthouse Real Estate if you’re looking for property in the Charleston area!
