Meet Thomas

"When it came time for my husband and me to list our home for sale in The Haven, we researched all possible options available to us and even inquired with a few consumer advocacy groups to find the best fit for us. We noticed that Thomas M. Kersey kept coming up in our results as the top choice. After carefully interviewing agents, we decided to meet with Mr. Kersey, who from the first phone call and appointment was very polite, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable about the market and the process. We felt very comfortable with him and really liked the fact that he is young, energetic, and very much a "go-getter" that will tirelessly work to sell your home. We felt that his listing presentation and understanding of our needs was by far the best we had seen and in our opinion recommended the most ideal list price. He immediately had our home professionally photographed and marketed with some of the best pictures I could have imagined of our home, the photography he uses could easily make a seller fall in love with their home all over again but for us, we knew we have to move on with our life. After having one failed contract during the process, he very quickly got our home back on the market and had us a better offer in no time. While he was out of town for his own wedding and honeymoon, he was able to negotiate our second offer to result in a full-price contract, an ideal closing date, and got us closed with ease. While I could continue writing about Mr. Kersey, I will simply say that you would be doing a disservice to yourself and your home not to hire Thomas as your agent. He is one of the best agents we have ever had and we have moved quite a bit in our lifetime. We are forever grateful for Thomas and his ability to meet goals, overcome objectives and continue moving forward in our best interest."

"My husband and I met Thomas when he met with our property owner in Rose Hill Plantation about the sale of his estate. We were impressed from the beginning with the professionalism and detailed representation Thomas offered. Over the period of the listing, he was very thorough in representing the property to the best of his ability. High-quality photographs and videos were taken to accurately show the beauty of this historic natural property. Since our property owner was frequently out of state, Thomas worked closely with us to gather detailed information about the property for potential buyers. From excellent communication to going above and beyond with advertising, we witnessed more dedication and hard work from Thomas. We developed a wonderful working relationship with Thomas and would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for an agent who is passionate about what he does and works hard to achieve positive results for all of his clients."

"Thomas helped us with our first home purchase and we loved his work ethic even on our cheap starter home. We felt like he gave us the same attention and support as someone buying a million-dollar home so there was no question that we would use Thomas this time. We just finished our 3rd transaction with Thomas by selling and buying a new home and we have had nothing but the best experience. Thomas always responded promptly to our concerns and went out of his way many times to keep the ball rolling were others in the process had dropped things through the cracks. He always kept us up to date as soon as he heard from lenders, buyers, agents and was very patient with us when we would get antsy from not hearing anything for a while. Thomas also informed and explained very well every detail before moving anything along in the selling or buying process. He is hands down the guy you should choose."

"My husband and I are beyond grateful for Thomas. He indeed demonstrated his skills as a Realtor® with knowledge in law when it came to handling our situation. As first-time home buyers, in an extremely crazy market, he explained everything to us in detail and advised us along the way. Thomas went above and beyond for us as we encountered a tremendous hurdle with the VA appraisal. He ensured he had all the facts and necessary information to give us to fight for our case with the VA by not only doing research but also going out of his way to speak to other Realtor® to get the most accurate information. In the end, Thomas’ negotiation skills earned us our first home! If you are looking for a Realtor® that will provide the maximum support and dedication to your sale or buy, he is the Realtor® you have been looking for."

"Our journey with Thomas was certainly an exciting one. He made sure we understood all aspects of selling our homes. His knowledge and professionalism were very appreciated and his sense of humor mirrored ours. His dedication to the sale of our home was unlike anything I have ever experienced. He made us feel as though we were the only clients he had and gave us undivided attention whenever we needed him. He really did not stop at anything to make sure our home was at the top of everyone's list through his constant marketing and amazing photographs. His classiness and superior knowledge of the market and the laws behind the scenes make him a very desirable choice when and if the decision arises to sell your home! Thank you, Thomas!"

"Mr. Kersey was very professional in helping us sell our property on Hilton Head Island, beginning to end. He assisted us in identifying a fair market price by providing specific comparison information. The pros and cons of a listing price were clearly discussed. The timeline, once established, was adhered to professionally. Once an offer was made that was acceptable to us, Mr. Kersey recommended a lawyer for closing as we live out of state and the law firm worked closely with us for successful completion. The buyer wanted to settle by 12/31/2020 and this was achieved with minimal stress. Mr. Kersey was very responsive to our phone calls. We highly recommend Mr. Thomas M. Kersey."

"Thomas was very knowledgeable of the area and surrounding towns, providing key insight on what would be best for our family's needs. As first-time home buyers, this was extremely beneficial, as we were coming from a different state with very little knowledge of the area. Thomas was very responsive and was present every step of the way ensuring we had all the information we needed and that all our questions were answered. We would personally work with Thomas again and would definitely recommend him to our friends and family. We could not be happier with the services he provided and are highly satisfied with his efforts. Thank you, Thomas!"

"We recently sold our home and are so pleased that we chose Thomas M. Kersey as our Realtor®. We had an offer within days. Unfortunately, the deal fell through, but he kept us calm and brought us another full-price offer a week later. He’s a full-time Realtor® which is so very important, and he kept us informed every step of the way. Thomas will have your back and he’ll work hard to get your house sold. We were so pleased with everything from the stunning photos he had taken of the house to the attorney he suggested for the closing. We highly recommend him!"

"Thomas is a phenomenal agent who went above and beyond what we could have expected. He would keep us informed of any progress or changes throughout our entire house selling or buying experience. My husband and I have now worked with Thomas twice, we choose him again after the first time we worked with him because he was awesome. I am very happy we choose to work with him again because the recent sale or purchase of our home could have gone a lot differently had we not used Thomas. I remember texting him at one point and saying you are the literal best and I meant every word."

"Thomas was very professional and knowledgeable in the area. We were coming to SC from another state and looking for our forever home with no real timeline. He was patient, responsive, courteous, and diligent while we reviewed the area locations so we could make a well-informed purchasing decision. He went above and beyond to help us transition to the area and provide local contacts to make our move happen. We are very grateful for Thomas and would highly recommend him. We are happy to find our dream home and also call him our friend. Thank You, Thomas!"

"We worked with Thomas a few years ago and have maintained contact. Thomas continues to be a superb source of information for us when we have real estate questions and his vast network of resources have been immensely helpful as we continue to relocate around the country. We are so thankful for having the opportunity to have worked with Thomas directly and continue to benefit from his expertise years later. Fantastic Realtor®, genuine person, and very knowledgeable on market activity and dynamics both local and national trends."

"Thomas is the consummate professional, his knowledge, skills, and abilities are limitless and his attention to detail is spot-on. Of even greater importance; Thomas is a dignified gentleman who treats everyone with tremendous respect and his customer service is of the highest level I have encountered in years. Thomas deserves the highest praise and my complement to him is to simply say that if I hear of anyone in need of a Realtor® I will recommend him and if I ever need a Realtor® he will be my first call."

"If you are looking for a dedicated, professional, result-oriented, full-time Realtor®, look no further. Thomas M. Kersey has all the attributes needed for guiding you through the process of selling your home with ease. He combines his knowledge of the local market with superior advanced marketing strategies utilizing the internet, social media, and traditional avenues. His expertise in assessing potential buyers and exceptional negotiation skills contributed to the quick sale of my home."

"From professional to professional Thomas was an absolute pleasure to work with. His assistance in listing my client's home, as well as working with my hand in hand for a successful outcome for this transaction, was outstanding! Due to Thomas' expertise, we were able to accomplish a record sale in Rose Hill, Bluffton SC! I would certainly recommend without a question Thomas to all of my future clients and look forward to doing business with him again!"

"Thomas was excellent in handling the sale of my parents' home, in the middle of a very difficult situation. Most Realtor®s would have walked away from our extremely challenging circumstances but Thomas remained calm and very patient throughout our entire process. I would give him 12 stars if I could. We cannot thank Thomas enough for everything he did to help our family in selling my parents' home."

"Thomas is a lifelong resident of Bluffton and knows the area well. I was very impressed with his dedication to me, as the client, in finding a home that met all my desires and needs. He worked hard to ensure that I got the best deal possible for the home and was with me every step of the way. I'd highly recommend you contact Thomas if you are moving to the Bluffton area!"

"Thomas was very helpful in getting me through the process of selling my home. He was very knowledgeable about market value and priced my home competitively. We had a buyer in about 13 days and Thomas negotiated through some difficult issues that brought the deal to a satisfactory close. I am grateful for his help and expertise."

"I worked with Thomas remotely to secure a property in his area site unseen. He provided me with good services and took the time to visit the property to ensure the seller fixed what they said they would. He is well connected in the area and can ensure that you have everything that you need in order to be successful."

"Thomas was a pleasure to work with! We couldn't be happier and will contact him with any future purchases or sales. He went above and beyond to make sure we got exactly what we were looking for and was extremely responsive whether to answer questions or to help us navigate through the process."

"Thomas was very professional and efficient. He helped us sell our first home and find a home in the best location for our growing young family. Highly recommended! Top-notch service!"

"Thomas is not only a very polite, pleasant, and proficient professional, he is exceptionally experienced and honestly cares about his clients. From our virtual introduction until this date, Thomas has been a wonderful support to my family’s transition into retirement life. Upon our connection via USAA, Thomas ensured we were well informed and educated on the anticipated process. He followed emails up with a phone calls and sometimes phone calls with emails—whichever the case, he made sure we were knowledgeable every step of the way. He made himself available whenever we decided to see a showcase, and he provided new opportunities almost daily. He always provided sound advice from an arsenal of knowledge whenever we had a hard time at decision points, presenting solutions with a grain of humility and pound of respect. It really was Thomas who found our dream home, even though we were only seeking lots to build on, because we did not think we’d find what we wanted in one house. However, because he took the time to truly understand what we were looking for, what we had to offer and what would work for our family, he was successful with locating our dream spot in our dream location. To our surprise, we fell in love and purchased our forever-retirement-home in less than a month from the time we started working with Thomas. We are a military family, and I personally have moved over 30 times in my lifetime. Acquiring this final home, in the perfect location for my family is a fantasy come true…and we owe it all to Thomas. So, if you are only looking for a realtor—anyone with a license will due; however, if you are looking for a realtor with a plethora of experiences advising, consulting, building and constructing who grew up in the local area—and could easily become a good friend, Thomas is your man."

"I thoroughly recommend Thomas Kersey, who did a great job selling my parent’s house. I was tasked with selling the house for my parents, who had recently moved out of state. I was also located out of state and therefore very reliant on Thomas to handle all aspects of the sale. From beginning to end, I felt that we were in good hands given Thomas’ expertise and experience. Thomas’ engagement went beyond traditional real estate agent expectations – during the sales process he was in frequent contact and kept me fully up to speed on showings and any adjustments needed. But where he really assisted and guided us was once we got to the offer stage – we received two offers almost simultaneously and he was able to negotiate as well as advise which was better, especially as both offers had contingencies. He examined the home market of the potential buyers and was able to clearly identify which offer was “less risky” - and then he negotiated a higher price from those buyers! Once under contract, the house needed some repairs, and being out of state, I worried about managing that. Not to worry – Thomas got bids and arranged all the work. I only had to approve the estimate and never even had to speak with a contractor. That made it easy on me! Bottom line, Thomas delivered, and made a potentially difficult process as easy and smooth as possible. I had tremendous peace of mind throughout knowing he was “in our corner”."

"Outstanding!!! Thomas is the most conscientious realtor that we have ever known!!! He sold our house in Hampton Pointe in Hardeeville, SC. He is attentive and addresses every detail, especially those that we, as the sellers, didn’t even know to request. Superior, knowledgeable, respectful, very responsive and personable all describe Thomas’s daily performance. We felt like he was our Son taking care of us. Buy or sell with Thomas Kersey and you will be impressed with his unmatched quality of customer service and his friendship!!! Thanks again Thomas. The Redmonds"

"We selected Thomas to be our realtor after detailed research of the Beaufort area realtors. Thomas had the best track record and highest sales in a difficult, saturated market. He has been amazing with us through a challenging time for our family. My father passed away during the process and we had many, many questions for Thomas. He was always available for us (by phone, email, text, and in person). He was also extremely helpful with local knowledge: local people and companies to help with downsizing, repairs, and help. At times, it was stressful for us to manage our parent's home from afar, but Thomas's help was immeasurable. We would never have been able to sell the home in a timely fashion and for a reasonable price without Thomas Kersey. We are so happy to have him as our Realtor!"

"When my husband died last month, we had been contracted to buy a new home in South Carolina that was supposed to close at the end of April. Since my circumstances had radically changed, I was hoping to cancel the contract, but the builder would not agree. I was told by my lawyer in New York that I had no other choice but to forfeit my large deposit or buy the house and resell it. Since this was badly needed money, I tearfully contacted Thomas Kersey to help me through the buying and selling process. He listened to me, a complete stranger in mourning, as I sobbed my way through the story. He then read through my contract and told me he would make some phone calls and see what he could do. Two days later I received a call from the builder saying that they would refund my deposit. Thomas went out of his way to help me through an extremely tough time and voluntarily forfeited the commission that he would have gotten if I had had to buy and sell the house. It is not often that you meet a man who will put his ethics and sense of justice before his financial gain. Thomas is such a man and the kind of man you want for your Real Estate Professional. He puts his clients first. "

"Working with Mr Kersey made the experience of selling a house from 18 hours away easier and less stressful! He was very knowledgeable about the real estate market in that area and had a sound strategy to sell our property. Mr Kersey would promptly respond to texts and return calls with answers to any questions we had. I would definitely recommend him to anybody who is looking to sell their house!"

"As we wake up every morning to an incredible view, we feel more and more blessed. It is due to Thomas' hard work, patience and recommendations that we found our perfect home. Thank you, Thomas, for immediately knowing where we would fit in and thrive. Your understanding of the Lowcountry and the many neighborhoods is beyond valuable."

"Thomas is the ultimate professional and a true local realtor!! He knows the area and here in the low country that is very important!!"

"Thomas Kersey was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in finding our new home. He left no stone unturned throughout the process. His guidance and knowledge are unmatched. We were very grateful to have him on our side throughout the entire process of purchasing our second home in South Carolina. We highly recommend Thomas For any real estate transactions you may have in your future"

"My real estate agent, Thomas Kersey is a consummate professional! His knowledge and understanding of the local real estate market is unparalleled. His dedication and duty to his craft was a great match for me & my the sale of my Rose Dhu Creek home, as well as potential future work down the line! I would not hesitate to recommend Thomas Kersey to any of my friends, clients, & associates. Thank you, Thomas Kersey for all that you do! Barbara, I & our entire family appreciate the effort you put into our home sale and the diligence you went about conducting your daily activities! Thank you again!"

"Thomas's ability to know his client's, the market, and how to negotiate the two make him unparalleled in the Low Country. He was able to negotiate a highly desired property for us in downtown in which he represented us (the buyer) and the seller. He worked diligently to ensure that all parties were happy and was always two steps ahead in negotiating anything that came up in the process. We couldn't be happier!"

"When we decided to sell our home, we listed it with Thomas. We can't say enough wonderful things about him. From start to finish AND beyond, he was professional, poised, engaging, communicative and knowledgeable. Thomas secured a purchase at the full value of our home. When we decide to sell again, he will be our first call!"

"My wife and I just wanted to thank Thomas for all of his help and expertise when we were moving out to the Hilton Head area and then 5 years later when we decided to move back out west to help out our family. Buying and selling a home in the Lowcountry was a fun, smooth experience with Thomas. Thomas kept us informed every step of the way. When we moved out to Arizona Thomas kept an eye on our home in Bluffton and made sure it was always ready to show."

"We were looking for a second home and were connected to Thomas. He educated us on the market and what we needed to do if we wanted to be successful well before we arrived to view houses. An example is having a credit letter from our bank to define our capabilities, so sellers would know that we were serious and could do a deal quickly. He guided through selecting the houses to visit and organized them to maximize our visits. When we were ready to make an offer he counseled us on the right amount to offer which was less than we were going to start with. it got done at his number. It was a great experience vs a not so good experiences some of my friends went through. He knows his business and we always felt he was working in our best interests."

"I would recommend Thomas for anyone who is looking to purchase or sell a home in The SC Lowcountry. His knowledge of the market and specific details on each community is amazing! He can rattle off any answer to any question that can be asked and will respond quickly. I just finished my THIRD TRANSACTION with Thomas and have been nothing but impressed with how I feel supported and comfortable with the decisions he helps us see to make that will benefit us most. He has really helped us build our American Dream."

"Thomas is not only a very polite, pleasant, and proficient professional, he is exceptionally experienced and honestly cares about his clients.

Also, buying a move-in-ready home in 2019, verses building in 2020, was a life-saving decision. Thank you, Thomas!"

"Having relocated up and down the east coast several times over the past 40 plus years we have dealt with many real estate agents. Thomas Kersey is on many levels the best agent we have had the pleasure of working with. Thomas has backed up his thoughts and ideas based on spreadsheet data of the current market and walked us through the conclusions. Thomas's thorough knowledge of the real estate transfer process has allowed us to plan the direction forward with sufficient detail for us to sit back and not be involved with the day to day, back and forth anxiety. Once we agreed on the plan Thomas would carry it forward with no strain to us. Thomas would later fill us in on details of the back and forth of what took place as the transaction closed. Thomas always delivered to strategy. We look forward to working with Thomas Kersey on future real estate transactions."

"I thoroughly recommend Thomas Kersey, who did a great job selling my parent's house. I was tasked with selling the house for my parents, who had recently moved out of state.

"Outstanding knowledge, skills, and abilities."

"Thomas has helped us sell 2 homes in the past. I would 100 percent choose him every time & I recommend him to everyone I know looking to purchase or sell. Thomas is so professional. He knows exactly how to market your home and who to market it too! Thomas will work hard for you to get you the best purchase price for your home. He is honest, knowledgeable & isn't afraid to have your back! 10/10!"

From our initial conversation he was set on finding us the right home which he did. We love our new home. Thomas is very professional and always available to assist us along the way with every step of the process. Thomas always made us feel like a priority."

"Thomas from day one was very attentive to our needs and desires when we were looking to find a property to build our future home. He went above and beyond my experience with other agents in finding out the answers for you that he may not have had initially. Thomas comes highly recommended for anyone that desires a hardworking knowledgeable realtor."

He does the homework necessary to striking the best deal and arrangement for his client. He never forgets how significant this transaction is to the buyer and the impact it can have on individuals and families."

"This is the second time I have used Thomas in the purchase of a home. As before, he was professional and completely prepared the day we spent with him viewing homes based on our wants and needs. Because we had worked together before he knew my style and focused on that. He was very honest with his thoughts if something didn't feel right about the home or the area of the home. He was able to answer all of our questions and he if didn't know the answer himself he had resources he contacted while at the home and got the answer. We found our home that same day! Closing was completed with no issues. Now we move one with selling my current home in which Thomas is my realtor. I have complete confidence that things will go smoothly with no issues. Also, if in the future there is a need for a realtor Thomas Kersey will be my choice. THANK YOU, THOMAS!"

"Working with Thomas has been the best home buying experience we have ever had. He is prompt, thorough, knowledgeable, and professional in every way. Even though he had major family medical issues during the process, he ensured we had no glitches or delays in closing. I would highly recommend using Thomas as your agent whether buying or selling a home."
