Mikki Ramey - Healthy Realty

worked instead with another broker. I own many properties, have worked with many agents- surprised we were assigned whose experience wasn't commersurate with our own experience and background in real estate

My husband and I, a long way from our home in Buffalo, NY, were interested in buying a second home in the Charleston area. Based on research and consistently positive reviews, we contacted Mikki Ramey at Healthy-Realty. In our initial face-to-face with the remarkable Mikki, we were impressed by her knowledge and intuitive understanding of our needs and preferences. It was Mikki who gave her new, clueless clients their geographical bearings, spending a half-day driving us around and describing the lay of the land. Almost immediately, we fell in love with the beautiful James Island, located just 10 minutes from historic downtown Charleston and 15 minutes to the ocean at Folly Beach. We enlisted Mikki and her team to be our local real estate representatives. A few months later, we returned to Charleston and embarked on a whirlwind weekend house-hunting search. We were determined to make a final decision?and an offer?during that short visit. Mikki's able young associates Abby and Janel were our "tour guides," who patiently showed us about 10 pre-selected possibilities in an 8-hour period. From those, we narrowed our options to two beautiful properties. It was during our second viewings the following day that we met the incomparable Shannon Jones, who would serve as our primary liaison throughout the duration of the process...from offer and negotiations through inspection and closing. There are not enough positive adjectives in the dictionary to describe this indefatigable "real estate Yoda" but here's an abridged top-of-mind list...sharp, knowledgeable, well-organized, meticulously detail-oriented, diligent, resourceful, efficient, conscientious and just fun to be around. Having returned to Buffalo after an offer was made, we confidently relied on Shannon to handle everything for us some 850+ miles away. We asked questions 24/7 and it was almost as if she was "on call" for us; we typically received responses by email within a half hour. We felt that Shannon went above and beyond in guiding us newbies through the process in order for us to make a comfortable, well-informed decision. She anticipated every detail and identified and resolved expeditiously any possible barriers to closing. A one-time resident of James Island, Shannon shared insider data on grocery stores, contractors, weekend getaway spots, where to buy furniture and antiques, flood zones, security, daily traffic patterns, dog parks, weather, housecleaners, best day/time to go to the beach, and we could go on and on. She was personable and funny and never, ever pushed or pressured us. Smooth sailing all the way! We formed a true partnership. Think of a family member or a close friend who wants only the best for you...and that would be Shannon. Before we closed, I jokingly told Mikki to give Shannon a raise for all the hours she clocked during our time together. She was the consummate professional and there was never a misstep or miscalculation as our "ambassador." And, although the schedule was tight, the fact that we closed on time with no hassles was due to the relentless efforts of the Healthy-Realty team, and most notably Shannon. I have been a public relations executive for 30 years, and I know excellent customer service when I see it. I also know that when such service is exemplary and extraordinary, it should be lauded and applauded. I would recommend Healthy-Realty in a heartbeat and if I'm ever in the market to buy or sell in the Charleston area again, I would put this agency on speed-dial. And by the way, we LOVE our new home.

We couldn't be more happy with how well she advised us in the process. We had been talking with her for several years regarding our options of purchasing a home, knowing we would have to leave the area. She advised us honestly and when property became available that we shouldn't turn down she let us know and walked us through the entire process. There were no surprises. We were so happy that despite many friends who are real estate agents and have been asking to sell our home, we decided to use her company as our selling agent of this property.

Mikki is our type of real estate agent. She was always accessible, friendly, kind and was never pushy. She listened to what we desired for our house and the end goal of our decision to sell. Very good agent!

Mikki and her team are wonderful, accommodating, and knowledgeable. Someone was always available to answer questions. They also did evening and weekend showings.

It went great and I’d definitely use her again! She was very responsive and was great with my questions. She’s very personable. I’d certainly recommend her.

They were extremely helpful as we purchased a new construction home, and we were not in the area to make sure the construction was going as planned. They checked in to make sure everything was on schedule and found a significant mistake on the part of the builders which they made sure was corrected. We will likely use them to sell our home when we leave.
