Right from the start I knew John Bell was exactly who I was looking to work with. As a first time homebuyer and being new to Charleston, I had a lot of questions and hesitations. John immediately got to work finding me the best home for my needs while also making it so easy and comfortable! He doesn't just help you find a place, but he also makes sure it's a good investment, safe location, and right fit for you! Erica and John, thank you for helping me every step of the way and continuing to be so helpful as I embark on this new journey!

If anyone is looking for a real estate agent in Charleston, I HIGHLY recommend John Bell and Southern Bell Living! He came home from visiting family early to help us out with listing our home. He had his team in here taking photos/video in a day and got our house under contract in 2 days on a holiday weekend. The service he and his team provide is outstanding and we cannot thank him enough for everything. Definitely give John a call for all your real estate needs, so impressed!

John has been my realtor through two purchases and one sale. John goes above and beyond what is necessary to either sell a home or buy a home. His background in finance and business makes him stand apart from other realtors. This background aides him in great negotiation, customer service and insuring you are happy with the process before and after the sale or purchase. Having worked with 4 other realtors in my lifetime - John stands above and beyond the rest and I will always use him when needed. Highly recommended!

We had no experience with buying or selling while using a realtor, but John will ALWAYS be my go to agent in Charleston area moving forward. He and Erica were AMAZING! My husband and I were moving back to Charleston from out of state and in a crazy market essentially had to buy a house before we actually got to see it in person. John made the process so easy- he was in to see houses I was interested in just hours after I sent them to him. The house we ended up buying was actually one that he found for me after seeing what I was looking for- and he even sealed the deal for us on a Friday while he was at a concert! He always went above and beyond. John and Erica made the whole home buying experience so easy and seamless. They took care of everything and I was so impressed by all their effort and attention to detail. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone in need of a real estate agent.

John was great to work with, helping me to navigate a tough market here in Charleston. He knows the market well, has great advice, and I'd definitely work with him again when I make my next purchase! He was my agent as a buyer, and did a great job negotiating with sellers, helping me to secure a condo here quickly. He also has a good network of construction people if you are looking to do any renovations.
