Client Testimonials:


" The best Realtor we have ever dealt with. Tony puts your needs above all else and sells you the house that you want and can afford, not the one that makes him the most money.

Tony looked long and hard to find the group of properties to show us that were 100% what we were looking for. He never pressured us or tried to push us towards one property or another, but when we asked his advice he offered it and was right on with what he said.

He stayed by our side throughout the entire Short Sale process, negotiated diligently until the Seller agreed to our price and still helps even after the closing.

No one knows the island better then Tony. He was responsive to all my requests and didn´t disappear after the deposit was made. He helped us secure financing and when all parties agreed on the price helped us close in 12 days!

Simply put, if you are looking for a home on Hilton Head and use anyone else you have made a huge mistake.

Seven months ago when we met Tony he was our Realtor. Today he is our friend.

Thank you Tony for making our dream come true."

Gregg & Cynthia Russo




" Tony is the best Realtor we have ever dealt with! He is not only extremely experienced and helpful but is a real pleasure to work with.

Tony took the time to really understand exactly what we were looking for and was therefore able to show us properties that perfectly matched our requirements. He is well connected and was knowledgeable of specific situations with respect to individual properties.

Tony found us our dream condo! Thanks Tony"

The Goodman´s from Atlanta




" Buying a home when you are already living in the area is hard enough, doing this from 1,000 miles away makes it even harder. Tony not only found us our dream home, but got us the best deal and has made sure all the parties involved have done their jobs and kept their promises.

Tony looks after you in each step of the process. He goes that extra mile for his clients so that you can relax and feel comfortable and begin to enjoy your new life.

Without Tony our dream would not have happened and for this we will be eternally grateful.  Thank's Tony!"

Bill & Mary Tieland




" We are so lucky to have met and worked with Tony. After visiting Hilton Head for the first time, we fell in love with the island and wanted to buy a vacation home there. We were completely new to this whole process and didn't know anyone on the island. We did not know a lot about Hilton Head Island or South Carolina at all, so luckily we found Tony to help and guide us through this journey.

When we first started working with Tony, we just briefly described to him what we were looking for in a vacation home and he was so quick to sort out exactly the right fits for our situation. We were always getting speedy updates about new listings and detailed descriptions and images of the properties.

Tony is incredibly patient and very professional to work with. We felt like we were in such reliable and good hands with Tony. We were doing everything long distance from Ohio, but it felt so easy because Tony was able to provide all the information that was needed step by step. He has a great team that works beside him, an attorney, a lender, etc that makes everything very easy.

We are now proud and very satisfied owners of a wonderful beach house in Hilton Head. If we had to do this all over again, we definitely would still choose Tony to be our Realtor again! Thank you Tony!"

" We purchased a condo our second time to Hilton Head Island. We searched online and decided to work with Tony, mostly because of his years living on the island. There was absolutely no pressure to buy. Tony told us if we didn't see what we wanted he would simply inform us though his emails what was coming up for sale in the coming weeks.

Tony's knowledge of the properties for sale was impressive. He showed us units in a villa that he knew was well constructed. Within three weeks we owned a beautiful condo.

Tony stayed with us after the sale and became a friend when we really needed one. He helped us find financing, insurance, furniture and appliance stores. He also visited our condo when we had it ready and took photos to help us set up our VRBO listing.

Hilton Head is a wonderful community. The people are great. If you are thinking of buying property, please consider Tony. We feel very fortunate to know him."

Jim & Debbie Heslar




" We have spent the past couple of years going back and forth on whether we were ready to buy a vacation home in Hilton Head. During that time Tony has been absolutely fantastic to work with, as we learned about the various neighborhoods, the pros and cons of each and helping us decide what our "must haves" were in a property.

Tony consistently demonstrated his deep knowledge of the real estate market on the island and matching the right properties to our buying criteria without aggressive sales tactics. When it was decision time, Tony worked long into the evening negotiating our condo purchase and obtained a great deal for us.

Tony's assistance did not end once the deal had closed. He continues to provide guidance, coaching and assistance to us as we get our villa rental listing up and running. We consider Tony our friend and recommend him without reservation."

Garold & Evelyn Oliver




" We've been to every "Live South" website and trade expo for the past five years. We've researched and visited so many brochures, locations and planned communities that we became overwhelmed with the whole idea of purchasing a second home. After a visit to Hilton Head, we finally knew that the island was where we wanted to be. We feel that Hilton Head's extraordinary beauty, seclusion, splendor and accessibility is incredible.

Upon extensively searching the internet for property listings, we came upon Tony Stegall as a highly regarded and experienced Resort Property Specialist. Once we called Tony, we knew right away that he could help us find our dream home. He has a unique ability to ask the right questions, listen to the answers and do lots of homework and then offer location and property ideas that we had not thought of.

After making what we thought would be the first of many nine hour trips to Hilton Head in search for the ideal property, Tony took us to sites that matched exactly what we were looking for. What we anticipated to be a stressful search, turned out to be the most exciting time of our lives. During that very first trip, we made an offer on a property in Sea Pines and within six weeks we have moved in!

Tony has provided us with everything we need to know about Hilton Head and Sea Pines and continues to be an incredible resource as we enjoy pre-retirement and owning our dream second home.

We highly recommend Tony to anyone interested in finding property in Hilton Head as he knows every aspect of the island, the real estate market and customer service. Thank you Tony!"

Scot & Sue Vantine




" Tony, I want to thank you on behalf of my wife and I for the incredible support and follow up assistance you have provided, (and continue to provide), during our recent condo purchase in Shipyard Plantation.

Over the years we have purchased many different properties and I can say without a doubt that your service is the finest we have ever received! Being 1st time "long distance" owners, you have made the entire process much easier and more comfortable than we ever anticipated.

Going forward, you will be someone we will most definitely recommend to anyone interested in purchasing a home or villa on Hilton Head!

Thanks again for helping us to buy a piece of paradise on Hilton Head Island!"

Mark & Liz Grundtisch



" When we started looking for property in Hilton Head Island, we knew very little about the market for vacation/rental condos and even less about the buying process. With no introduction other than Tony's website, we began to explore the possibilities with Tony using email and old fashioned phone calls.

It was very evident that he was exceptionally knowledgeable and qualified to help us find the right condo. But more importantly, we learned we could trust him with this major purchase and he proved this time and time again.

Tony was instrumental in our success before, during, and after our purchase. From finding the right property to guiding us through the buying process and closing the deal. We couldn't have asked for more. His professionalism, kindness, patience, and willingness to go the extra step for us was unparalleled.

We feel very fortunate to have had Tony represent us from over 800 miles away. He continues to be a valuable resource, helping us find repair men, legal assistance, and even a property manager. Tony has even done most of the work in setting up our VRBO site. He has done all of these things after our purchase when most Realtors consider their job finished.

We couldn't be happier with our purchase and because of Tony's advice during the process, we have been financially successful in just 3 months! Thank you Tony for everything!!"

Dr. William & Theresa Francis




" Tony, Thank you once again for helping Traci and I realize our dream of owning a beach home in Hilton Head. Being from Ohio, we could not have done this without you and your knowledge of the Hilton Head area.

The patience and guidance you provided allowed us to trust you and make an informed decision. As a result, we purchased our vacation home without ever seeing it in person! Again, because of your knowledge and service, this was an unbelievable experience!

Tony, we are extremely pleased and cannot thank you enough for your friendship and professionalism!"

Mike & Traci Sarver




" We were very fortunate to encounter Tony Stegall while searching the internet in our pursuit of a vacation/rental property on Hilton Head Island.

Tony was absolutely indispensable in our efforts to find the ideal property, and thereafter assisting us in every aspect up to the successful closing. He promptly and efficiently communicated with the sellers and their representatives, ably assisted in negotiations, providing sound advice with no pressure.

He helped us with every aspect of the sale, inspection process, closing requirements and the rental management agreement.

Tony was there at every question. We probably exchanged 50 to 60 e-mails during the process. He is still there for us if we need his help and a very charming guy to boot."

Warren & Susan Cheesman




" Buying a vacation home can be tricky because of unfamiliarity with a remote locale. For us, this was neatly mitigated by our agent Tony Stegall. For the majority of last year, we were back in Massachusetts and Tony worked tirelessly to ultimately bring us to the villa of our dreams. He answered a thousand questions through email and phone calls on specific villas.

Tony emailed us weekly updates on available villas within our targeted criteria. Upon our requests, several times he took digital pictures of properties and emailed them to us. He also emailed us documents and files on a myriad of topics. He provided an ideal level of support and communication. We point out that during this time we had never met Tony face-to-face.

The real work started when we arrived for our winter on Hilton Head. We put him through the paces looking at many villas. He made all the arrangements and taxied us around like we were the most important people on the island. We repeated, three-peated, and probably four-peated some places. Tony always smiled and was ready to go. He was instrumental in getting us to target the final properties and guide us to honest pricing expectations. Tony truly brokered the final deal in the noblest sense.

It didn't end with the signed agreement. Tony continued working on our behalf whether it was arranging for a lawyer, an insurance agent, home inspector, or someone to change the locks. Never stopping, he interrupted our closing with a phone call because he caught an error in the settlement sheet which saved us a few hundred dollars.

We consider Tony a friend who still hasn't stopped providing us with on the ground support on Hilton Head."

Larry & Marilyn Herrman




" We were new to the second home market and Tony was an amazing asset. A friend had referred us to another realtor but fortunately my husband found Tony on the internet.

I am still amazed by how well he read us after hearing about our family and our interests. We went with the first home he showed us because it suited us so well. The neighborhood is just like home, only at the beach!

It is not surprising that Tony remains our go-to guy in Hilton Head. He has helped us with many details after the sale. We recommend him without exception to anyone looking for property in Hilton Head."

Alex & Michelle Wiklund




"When I started my search for Hilton Head Real Estate, I asked a local Rental Company to recommend, The Best Realtor On The Island, she said she knew a great agent and would have him call me. Within 10 minutes my phone rang and it was Tony. That very day he e-mailed me details on several properties, including photos! I then made arrangements to fly to the Island.

Tony worked very diligently with me, showed me all the properties that matched my criteria, and spent the time and energy to ensure I had a productive and enjoyable trip.

I was comfortable and confident that he would do everything in his power at all times to ensure my interests were protected. He handled my home purchase as if it were his own. His commitment to excellent client-level service is rare and appreciated. I honestly feel I've made a new friend for life."

Patty Massare




"Bill and I would like to express our heartfelt thanks to you for the extraordinary quality time you shared with us on our several trips to Hilton Head looking for our new beach home. You are a great asset to your company and a very service oriented Realtor who takes the time to help in any way, as every business customer in today's world is searching for."

Bill and Sandra Bridwell




"We met Tony over 10 years ago. We have since purchased several investment properties on his recommendation, some sight unseen, and have made a nice profit on all!

Tony protects our interests and tells it like it is. When you're 725 miles away, it's nice to know there's someone on the Island who has your interests at heart. That's why Tony Stegall is Our Man in Hilton Head!"

Hank and Sue Ashton




"Over the years we have purchased several investment/rental properties on Hilton Head Island, all thru Tony. We recently sold one for a nice profit - Thanks Tony!

Tony has recommended that we not buy certain properties as he felt they would not provide the investment return & appreciation that we were seeking.

Tony has always represented "our" best interests. He provides service before the sale, as most Realtors do, deals with the nuisance problems during the sale, as many Realtors do, and provides on going service after the sale, as most Realtors do not do.

Our next purchase will be our retirement home. We would not think of using anyone but Tony.

Tony's slogan should be: To serve your best interests is my only goal."

Joe & Meredith Baranzano




"Tony not only met our expectations, he exceeded them! He went out of his way to see that every detail was handled appropriately. Including items which were the responsibility of others. He provided excellent service before, during, and after the sale.

Tony has set the standard for others we do business with on the island."

Kurt & Peggy Richards




"As our Real Estate agent, Tony is super! He has been our lifeline to Hilton Head Island.

Tony has not only guided us in the best way to handle our purchase, but has also been our friend and guardian of our dream.

We trust Tony unconditionally and would highly recommend him as a real estate agent that always puts his clients needs foremost!"

Ed & Eileen McCabe




"My husband and I always knew we wanted a place of escape on Hilton Head Island since the day he proposed to me while vacationing there years ago. Especially since we have come back to the island to vacation at least once a year and it is hard to work our vacation schedule around our children! We thought it would be wonderful to have our own place to sneak off to when time permits.

Everyone has their favorite island destination and ours is the Forest Beach area. We love the convenience of the area, the beach, and the fact it is full of life - yet laid back at times.

We went online just on a whim to see what was available and shortly after found ourselves owners of a condo in South Forest Beach! Funny thing about it is, our whole transaction was done through the internet and with emails, without even meeting Tony!

He handled everything for us and was so professional and helpful; we feel like we have known him for years! Not only did he find us the perfect fit for what we needed in a condo for our family, but he helped us find financing on the island when our local banks up north did not want to finance a vacation condo in Hilton Head, SC. Thanks Tony!"

Andy & Shannon Adolph




"Working with Tony has been a fantastic experience. He knows the Hilton Head condo market like no one else. He was very responsive and put us in touch with all of the right people in Hilton Head.

We could have not realized our dream without his assistance. He is a valued advisor and our lifeline to Hilton Head! "

Kent & Roxana Renner




" Tony made the process of finding and buying our Hilton Head condo a very positive experience. He listened and provided helpful, accurate, and reliable information. At every step of the way, he was willing to put as much work into the process as was necessary. Most importantly, he earned our trust.

Before and after the purchase, he has been an excellent agent. Tony continues to provide us with valuable advise and services, even though he has no obligation to do so. We also rent our condo, and have found Tony to be an invaluable resource."

Steve Riggins




" We just finished closing on a condo in the South Forest Beach area of Hilton Head Island and wish to give Tony Stegall our heartfelt thanks for helping us through the process.

Tony did an incredible job at understanding our interests and showing us numerous properties to help narrow our search. His knowledge of the market and specific properties, along with his sound advice, was invaluable.

At the same time, we sense that we can go to Tony in the future for further advice as we consider various alternatives for remodeling, refurnishing, and property management. In other words, we think we've found a friend at Hilton Head. What a nice bonus."

Dan & Roseann Sieminski




" Tony, I wanted to thank you for helping us through the buying process. It can be a scary purchase buying from Ohio in South Carolina, but you made it flawless. You guided us through the multiple properties and helped make sure we ended up with the condo that fit us best at a price that was exceptional.

The help you provided after the purchase was above and beyond the call of duty. That is what really makes you stand out as the best on the Island. We cannot thank you enough for such a great experience. You are definitely on the Christmas card list."
