Jim and Kelly are a great team. They back each other up as needed. Jim is easy going and a great coach during the process. He is clear on when to react and what options are available during the process. He can handle agents who try to bully through the stages and still be effective. He normally was available at every call or text and if not advised when he could get back to me.

Excellent team, excellent service, excellent experience.
We bought our home on John’s Island and Jim and his team were absolutely amazing. They promptly answered all of our questions, never let half an hour go by without responding, and never once made us feel pressured.
We now have a great house for our family and will absolutely be using team Hartburn the next time we move. Highly highly recommended!!!

Kelly’s professionalism and knowledge of SC low country real estate was readily apparent. She was willing to go above and beyond to ensure my family got the best home available to us. She even allowed us to stay in one of her Airbnb properties after we arrived to SC from AZ a few days prior to closing.
I would DEFINITELY use Kelly again

After 5 years of looking in all the wrong states, my husband and I both found a house on John's Island that miraculously, we both liked. After trying the listing agent with no reply, we found Jim Hart. Jim did a video walk through for us as we currently live in DC. We made a trip down and Jim showed us the house and a few others. He helped us negotiate to a ratified contract, and arranged all inspections for us. Jim made closing out this 5 year hunt for our retirement state, town and house finally come to fruition. We cannot recommend Jim Hart and Team Hart-burn highly enough.

Moving is always stressful and combine that with home purchase from on the other side of the country, it can be a very complex process. Team Heartburn made the process as smooth and easy as possible.
The services and tasks necessary to complete a home purchase become very difficult when you're 3 time zones away,especially when there are problems! Communication becomes a major hurdle. Jim provided for those needs by coordinating with local service providers and facilitating correspondence with the loan agency, inspection providers, and legal staff. He accepted our calls any time day or night and always responded in a timely matter. I'm glad we had Jim as our agent.
"
- Thomas B Stanford

I cannot recommend Team HartBurn enough! I reached out to Kelly when I had to sell my childhood home after losing both parents. Both Kelly and Jim were there for me every step of the way to make sure I got top dollar for the property but more importantly, they were more than just my realtor as they were friends and sensitive to the emotions behind selling the home my parents’ built over 50 years. This was the third time they have helped me with the purchase/sell of a property and I am completely SOLD on the fact that they are the best around. Highly recommend!!

Team Heartburn did a wonderful job in helping us sell our home. With buyers backing out and interest rates rising multiple times, Team Heartburn were diligent in their efforts in getting the home staged and finding the right buyer. Thanks!

I’d like to take a moment to share the exceptional experience I had working with Team HartBurn. As a first-time homebuyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Kelly. The home-buying process can feel overwhelming, but Kelly made it seamless by guiding me every step of the way. She was always available to answer my questions and even asked insightful questions I hadn’t thought of. There were many nuances that I would not have known how to navigate, from the inspection to establishing services in a new area, team HartBurn had me covered. The concierge service was another highlight, making the setup of my utilities incredibly easy. “Like a good realtor, Kelly is there!” 😄 Kelly is truly the best; I felt cared for and I knew I was in good hands. Team HartBurn will be my go-to for any future real estate needs.

Team HartBurn did an amazing job of helping me sell my house. There were numerous unexpected issues that we all had to contend with due to the buyers' agent's and lender's incompetence, but Team HartBurn was incredibly professional, helpful, and humane throughout the entire ordeal. I had to put my Yorkie down while I was waiting for my house to sell, and Team HartBurn took the time out of their busy schedules to print, frame, and mail me a picture of my dog. I was incredibly touched by their gesture and how helpful they were throughout a very complicated real estate transaction. I would recommend them to anyone wanting to buy or sell a house in the Charleston area!

I will gladly recommend Team Hartburn. Jim was a great help to me and my family member as we navigated the process of becoming first-time homeowners. He was always available to answer questions and guide us while looking at homes that were on the market. Both Jim and Kelly coordinated effectively with our mortgage broker, home inspectors, repair companies, and other parties involved in the homebuying process, making everything much easier for us. They also worked together to guide us through the task of negotiating with the seller to make our purchase offer, giving us confidence that we were getting the best deal possible. For example, Jim was able to obtain concessions from the seller that significantly helped with our closing costs. When unforeseen circumstances threatened to cancel and delay our closing, Jim insisted that the closing proceed as scheduled and negotiated a way to move forward with the attorneys so that we could hold on to our mortgage rate lock and close before our purchase contract expired. Having him as our advocate in these circumstances made a huge difference and helped us get through what could have been a difficult situation. Even after our closing, Jim and Kelly have continued to help us prepare for the next steps, assisting with minor repairs and giving advice for whatever we need. I highly recommend them!

We’ve worked with Kelly twice, both times she exceeded our expectations. On a scale of 1-5 Kelly is a 10+ (yes she’s that good!). Our primary home is in another state so we needed information about the Summerville/Charleston area. Kelly is knowledgeable with the area, very responsive to our calls, texts and emails, and prompt with our appointments. We told her what we were looking for in a new home, she found listings we were interested in, scheduled and showed us each one, and answered all questions we had about the home, utilities, and HOA’s. Late in the evening on the night before we were scheduled to leave for home to make our decision, we decided we would be interested in looking at homes with a different criteria, we contacted Kelly to see if it would be possible to look at a couple more places with only a few hours notice before we left. She immediately went to work to schedule showings for the home and appointments with the office of the community we were interested in. After deciding on the home we wanted Kelly helped us with scheduling the home inspection and closing through email. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Kelly, you won’t find a better realtor.

Jim Hart was there for me during the whole process of selling my mother’s home. No matter how silly my questions were, , my worries about selling, or just a calming voice to be my guide throughout this process. Sold my house in less that one day and then got through the long wait til closing. Even got asking price minus a little to cover miscellaneous updates. Thank you again, Jim. So glad you were there for me

Team HartBurn was the answer to a thousand prayers. Working on a deadline, I had to be placed in a new home on short notice. HartBurn jumped on my project with both hands and both feet! They showed me numerous properties, and were keenly sensitive to my budget and home needs. Every step of the way they were readily available and more than generous with their knowledge and skills. My home project was not a high-ticket sale. However, through the whole process I was treated with the same dignity, courtesy, and priority as if I were buying a mansion. Their service was of the highest quality and hospitality. I don't know that I have ever worked with any firm on any project that I would recommend so highly as HartBurn.

I enthusiastically recommend Jim Hart as a highly competent and exceptional real estate agent. I had the pleasure of working with Jim during my recent home buying experience, and I am extremely grateful for the outstanding service and dedication he provided throughout the entire process.
From the moment I began my search for a new home, Jim exhibited a level of attentiveness and care that surpassed my expectations. He took the time to genuinely understand my needs, preferences, and budget, and consistently went above and beyond to ensure that I found the perfect property. What truly sets Jim apart is his ability to establish a personal connection, making me feel like I was working with a trusted friend rather than just an agent.
Jim has an impressive availability, always being accessible day and night to address any questions or concerns that I have. His responsiveness and prompt communication greatly eased the stress associated with the home buying process. I never felt hesitant to reach out to Jim as I knew they would provide me with the guidance and support I needed.
One of the qualities that impressed me the most about Jim is his extensive knowledge of the real estate market. He possesses a deep understanding of the local area and was able to provide valuable insights into various neighborhoods, schools, amenities, and market trends. This expertise proved invaluable in helping me make informed decisions and find a property that met all my requirements.
Beyond his professionalism and expertise, Jim is an incredibly friendly and approachable individual. He fostered a warm and welcoming environment, which made the entire home buying process enjoyable. His positive demeanor and genuine care for his clients are qualities that make them stand out as an exceptional real estate agent.
I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional service Jim provided me. He exceeded all my expectations and made a significant impact on my home buying journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Jim Hart to anyone in search of a dedicated, knowledgeable, and trustworthy real estate agent.

I cannot recommend Jim enough. We were looking for a specific investment opportunity, which turned into a year-long search. Jim was incredible throughout the process. He didn't just open doors; he was proactive in finding leads and creative in helping us see potential. He was patient through countless viewings and made sure we didn't settle until we found the right asset. When Jim was out of town, his partner Kelly stepped in to help! Jim is a true professional and a great partner to have in your corner.

Jim Hart provided outstanding service. The home Jim helped us with was a second home not near our first home. We needed his talent to get all the moving parts done and would not have been successful without him. Would not buy a house without Jim involved. Thank you,

Kelly did a great job in marketing our home. From the photo album showing the strengths of our property to scheduling an overly successful open house that delivered us two offers within the first 24 hours of being listed. In addition, since we had already moved to our new home, she was extremely helpful in managing the required inspections and was a great assist in resolving any inspection issues and was very helpful in proving information to manage our closing. We would highly recommend Kelly and the team for their understanding of the market, great follow through and a very caring customer service attitude.

Jim and Kelly are fabulous realtors! They work on a New York minute and respond to us almost immediately at all times. They both definitely have a passion for what they do and you can tell that they love their jobs and the services they provide.
My mom and I can’t speak highly enough of Jim and Kelly! They helped both of us sell our homes and purchase new-construction homes at the same time. Their professionalism, knowledge, honesty, integrity and hard work ethics are much appreciated and respected. They are detail oriented, honest, and very good with people.
Jim and Kelly are such caring realtors and were so attentive to our needs. They were patient, kind, and always answered our questions!! Thanks again for a wonderful experience!

Kelly Wilburn was absolutely great to work with. My wife and I were looking for a home in Summerville had to travel from out of state with limited time to look at the available listings. Kelly was able to schedule all viewings we were interested in within a tight window to allow us to return home in a timely manner, as well as make some last minute schedule adjustments.
She was extremely respectful of our time throughout the entire process and always kept us informed. We have been fortunate enough to have purchased numerous homes over the years and our experience with Kelly was the best.

The. Absolute. BEST! Kelly made my home buying journey absolutely painless. Always way ahead of every step along the way and kept me on track, and goes far above and beyond to ensure the best possible home buying experience. Her advice and guidance is second to none. Having significant equity in the home just after closing is a testament to her foresight and knowledge of the market. 100000/10 can’t recommend enough! If you’ve even thought about a real estate purchase-first time homebuyer or investor, give her a call!
