If you’re thinking about selling your home in Bluffton or Hilton Head Island, here’s one truth you need to hear: pricing your home correctly from day one is more important than ever.

We are no longer in the high-emotion, pandemic-fueled real estate market of 2021 and 2022. Buyers today are educated, analytical, and budget-conscious. They have access to tax records, online estimates, comparable sales, and often a savvy Realtor translating what’s really happening in the market.

And if your home is overpriced? You’re likely to find yourself chasing the market—a strategy that almost always costs sellers time, money, and peace of mind.

What Does “Chasing the Market” Mean?

In real estate terms, “chasing the market” happens when a seller lists…

Where golden hours meet unforgettable views.

A Home Designed Around the View

Hidden in the exclusive Palm Isle section of Moss Creek, 11 Palm Isle Court is a stunning Lowcountry retreat that feels both timeless and transportive. This updated cottage-meets-treehouse is quietly tucked away at the edge of the marsh—and the views are, in a word, breathtaking.

It’s one of those homes where the landscape becomes part of the architecture. Large windows in every room frame expansive tidal marsh views, offering a constantly shifting show of sky, water, and wildlife.

Golden Hours, All Day Long

There’s a magic here that can’t be overstated. Whether it’s the soft morning light gliding across the marsh or the way the sun melts into the…

Small Box, Big Impact: Supporting the Blessing Box Project in Bluffton

At 100 Women Giving Back to the Lowcountry, we’re always looking for local causes that quietly—but powerfully—change lives. While our organization can only donate to registered 501(c)(3) nonprofits, every now and then we come across a grassroots effort that deserves the spotlight. The Blessing Box Project is one of those.

We may not be able to donate our pooled funds, but we can raise awareness—and many of our generous members have chosen to support this initiative personally. We hope you'll be inspired to do the same.

What Is the Blessing Box Project?

A Sacred Shift: The Summer Solstice in the Lowcountry

June 21st marks the Summer Solstice—the longest day of the year and the official start of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. But here in the Lowcountry, it’s more than just a date on the calendar.
