Sotheby’s International Realty Global Referral Network Delivers Record-Breaking Sale on Tybee Island

Read More

21 Teresa Lane exchanges hands for $4.2 million, the highest-price residential real estate sale on Tybee Island 

On Thursday, December 16, 21 Teresa Lane closed for $4.2 million, setting the record for the highest-price residential sale on Tybee Island.

The buyer, represented by Daniel Ravenel Sotheby’s International Realty, came to the Lowcountry brokerage by way of the Sotheby’s International Realty global referral network. Spanning 75 countries and territories and 1,000 offices worldwide, Sotheby’s International Realty harnesses the power of relationships by cultivating this exclusive referral network. It’s a strategy that yields results, generating $2.9 billion in global referral volume in 2020. According to the National Association of Realtors®, a key factor for moving over the last year was to be closer to family and friends. As relocations continue, Daniel Ravenel Sotheby’s International Realty asserts their cross-market connections will provide buyers and sellers an edge.

In the case of 21 Teresa Lane, the referral to Daniel Ravenel Sotheby’s International Realty came from Jamie Curry of Florida’s Gulf to Bay Sotheby’s International Realty. The Lowcountry-based firm enlisted top agents in Pawley’s Island, SC, Charleston, SC, Bluffton, SC, and Savannah, GA to showcase each area of the region’s exceptional listings. The white glove, high-touch approach brought the buyer to 21 Teresa Lane, a 4 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom, 5,219 square foot oceanfront home that had last changed hands in 2010, also through Daniel Ravenel Sotheby’s International Realty agents.

Kelli Weis, broker-in-charge of the Daniel Ravenel Sotheby’s International Realty office in Savannah, served as the buyer’s agent.

“This is an example of the Sotheby’s International Realty network delivering results,” said Weis. “With our newly expanded regional footprint, we’re able to provide clients around the world with expert local agents in all areas of the Lowcountry.”

The seller was represented by Taavo Roos of Seabolt Brokers, LLC.

Discover the cinematic beauty of Morris Island Lighthouse with this new drone footage by Hayashi Multimedia

“I recently took a road trip to Charleston, SC and visited the Morris Island Lighthouse, the tallest lighthouse in South Carolina. It was built in 1876, decommissioned in 1962, and it was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. The only way to access the lighthouse was via drone since the waters around the area are too rough for swimming or wading. I launched my DJI Mini 2 from the north bank of Folly beach to reach the lighthouse, circled it a few times, and booked it back to the launch point before my battery ran out twice. This was the first time I used the Quickshot function to orbit around the lighthouse and it seemed to work pretty well. Again, I composed a simple background music track to complement the video footage using Dune 3 and Beatmaker in Bitwig Studio.” – Hayashi Multimedia

Charleston’s 34 West Theater Company has record breaking 14 straight sell out weeks

Read More

Our current show has sold out 14 weeks in a row. That’s a new record. Actor Becca Anderson and co-owners Jeff Querin and Stephen Wayne deliver hilarious comedy every night to full houses and happy hearts, with the mod and subversive GROOVY KINDA LOVE.

Actor-writer-owner Jeff Queri

Many of our shows regularly sell out because they’re original comedies, never-before-seen. We write to our actor’s strengths and if a certain character is a home run, we’ll incorporate that character in another show down the road.

Over the past 7 years, our universe of recurring characters and continuing stories has grown exponentially. Successful shows have had sequels. Popular characters get their own spin-off.

Combine these with a charming boutique theater in downtown Charleston and you get a delightful experience that will leave you smiling long after the show is over…

…that is, if you can get a ticket 🙂
