What do Clients Say?

I was so glad when I found Dave! I have used him for my last 2 purchases and referred him to help my mother & sister to find new homes for them too. We have been very happy with Dave and his professionalism and how he goes above and beyond to help. Nancy

I recommend Dave Gerwels as a realtor on Hilton Head Island due to his very concrete knowledge of the area, his exceptional follow-up, and his general friendliness. I have known Dave for 5 years as a neighbor and as the president of our property owners association (POA).

We found Dave to be proactive, extremely responsive, and very quick on the turn around times for information. He's very knowledgeable when it comes to the Hilton Head real estate market and provides sound advice. He's also a great source for identifying local contacts for home inspections and work that needs to be done post-close. Great attention to detail and communication throughout the process

I'm very thankful to have found David for my real estate needs. He is the best I've dealt with, in terms of helpfulness, area knowledge with the market and island-specific real estate questions, and generally just a great person who is very accessible and always willing to help you out! I highly recommend David
