Overall very pleasant to work with. Thanks Debbie for being so flexible and not giving up on us or our property.

If you are looking for a dedicated, professional, Low Country realtor who has your back, look no further.

Sue LeFavi
When we decided to sell our home and move back to South Carolina we went on YouTube and discovered the wealth of videos made by Sue LeFavi. Considering moving to South Carolina? Sue offers her insights. Wondering about property taxes in South Carolina? Sue did a video on the question. Sue offers several video driving tours of Low Country neighborhoods with commentary. Trying to decide between Beaufort and Bluffton? Maybe Sue's video on the topic can help. Take mortgages, do you want to be pre-qualified or pre-approved? Sue can help you sort it out. As a bonus video, Sue shares her recipe for fabulous meatballs and cooks up a batch! When we met Sue in person, we had already identified the neighborhoods we wanted to see. In a few days we selected the neighborhood for us, bought our lot, and hired our contractor. Sue made it happen. Thanks Sue!..
Kim Carswell
Our family is moving to Beaufort from Charlotte next summer and we found Kim's name and contact online after searching for top sales agents in Beaufort. Kim was amazing to work with and could not imagine going through this process without her. She was helpful and supportive every step of the way. We will definitely recommend her to anyone looking to buy/sell in Beaufort!
Sue LeFavi
Sue was very helpful on all areas and great to work with. I will recommend Sue anytime!
Sue LeFavi
Sue is an exceptional realtor. We were purchasing a lot from out of town. She went to various lots for us and sent us videos so we were able to see what the properties looked like firsthand. She kept us up to date on the available lots and comparisons to other properties in the area. She was excellent at communication. If there were more stars we would have given her more!

Suzanne is a phenomenal person and agent. My house was a mess from years of renters. Because I now live in Denver, she worked with numerous contractors to get everything in tip top shape and on time. She did a great market analysis, we got a full price offer and closed on time. I know a lot of realtors and Suzanne is the best and most hardworking and truly works for her clients and I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Suzanne.

Sue LeFavi
Sue was a real pleasure to work with and always responsive to our questions and needs.
Sue LeFavi
Sue was integral to helping us find and buy our beautiful waterfront home. My family just moved to Beaufort county and this was our first time buying a home. We knew nothing about area or where to start looking. We were so happy to find and work with Sue as she made the whole process seamless and stress free. She began by first helping us to narrow down our search by area and neighborhood, providing us with an extensive list including lot size, price range, distance to town, amenities, and HOA fees for each subdivision. We had very specific needs, Sue gave great advice and was persistent and focused in helping us find exactly what we were looking for. She assisted us during each step in purchasing our beautiful waterfront home, and the entire process went smoothly and fast! She has excellent communication, is extremely professional, trustworthy, and always responded thoroughly and promptly to any and all questions we had. We would highly recommend Sue as a top notch real estate agent.
Sue LeFavi
Sue is a very knowledgeable and professional Real Estate Agent. She listens and takes to heart what is told to her. I recently explained to Sue exactly what I was looking for in a house and Sue made it a point to show me just that! Upon finding the house that checked off every box, there were questions that arose and, if Sue didn’t have the answer, she got the answer promptly! Sue is definitely an Agent you want on your side, representing YOU! I look forward to working with Sue in the future...
Sue LeFavi
We've known Sue for several years and when an opportunity presented regarding a waterfront lot, we knew Sue would be the right person AND real estate professional, to contact. Within a day, we had all the information we needed to better understand the community the property was located within, as well as HOA details. Armed with this info, we coordinated with Sue to gain access and see the property. With our interest confirmed, Sue was able to further uncover needed information related to property and City setback requirements needed to determine if, and where, an appropriate home structure would fit the lot. In the end, with Sue's help, we found the property we were looking for, and Thanks to her, we were even introduced to a potential home builder. Sue's energy, professionalism and personality were all we had expected and she delivered as we anticipated. We'd highly recommend Sue to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in this area.
Kim Carswell
Kim was very knowledgeable in the complete process and informed us along the way. We hit a few hurdles along the way and she was right on top of them and went above and beyond to see us through them. If we ever come back to Beaufort or know of friends or family considering the area we would highly recommend Kim and Ballenger Realty.
Kim Carswell
Kim went above and beyond as our agent. She is so professional and friendly.
Sue LeFavi
Sue is an amazing realtor and a great person. She is bright, intuitive, resourceful and always so chipper. Sue clearly loves her job. She was tireless in trying to help us find the right home in the Low Country, being very knowledgeable of the area. We are from the northeast and finally purchased a spec home that was 3 months away from completion. Sue knew it was stressful to be so far away and frequently sent us videos of the progress and other updates. Towards the end of the process, serious issues came up that were out of our control, threatening our ability to close in a reasonable amount of time. Long story, let's just say that our mortgage company's underwriter dropped the ball. Sue eagerly stepped up to the challenge and was indefatigable in getting important information where it was needed to make it happen. We have worked with dozens of realtors over the decades, some of which were real doozies-others who were quite good. Sue is among the very few at the very top of the list to competent, professional-and enjoyable-realtors. And we are so delighted; now we are near-neighbors! Thank you, Sue!
Suzanne Plank
You can't get any better than Suzanne Plank. She is knowledgeable, prompt, polite, smiling and always available. We followed many of her helpful suggestions. She is aware of all disciplines and personnel that are involved in selling a home. Thanks you Suzanne!

I highly recommend Suzanne for your buying or selling needs. We were referred to her by a friend that highly recommended her professionalism.

She was tough on negotiations and helped me hold out for more than I probably would have! She was very efficient with electronic communications and e-sign documents. Overall, the process was seamless. Suzanne kept us informed every step of the way and made the entire process a breeze! We would no doubt use her again!

Debbie was a new agent, just starting out, but she worked harder than any Real Estate Agent I have ever encountered in my 40 years of Finance/Banking/Mortgage Broker. If Ballenger Realty recruits agents that are as hard working and costumer friendly as Debbie Rice, your firm will continue to be a success.
Deb Regecz
