Lake Keowee Real Estate —  Client Testimonials

What Our Clients Say

“I met Doug and Carol through serendipity in 2006 when scouting for a development location. What was great about working with them is that before I even came to the Keowee area, they spent so much time working with me, we become friends. So much so, that all fear of realtor sunshine, (you know, when REALTORS® think a chicken coop is the TaJ Mahal?) was non-existent. They showed me the beautiful region and isolated the locations that would work with my concept because they listened to my needs first - making a sale was secondary. I will not purchase land in the South - North Carolina highlands without Doug and Carol. Their integrity is without question, and the skill is a given. If you want to work with professionals that will put your success first and foremost, then Doug and Carol Patterson are the REALTORS® of choice. They may have equals, but no one is better. May God bless richly both of them”
Michael Huye, Lazarus Group, Baton Rouge, Louisiana
“Lake Keowee will be our retirement home. Doug and Carol were very helpful in our search for a perfect retirement lakefront homesite. After carefully listening to our needs they showed us several good choices on the North Carolina mountain lakes and in nearby South Carolina, spending more than three full days with us in the process. With their helpful knowledge of the Lake Keowee area we decided to make that our future home. They successfully handled all the documentation to make the closing go smoothly, which was particularly appreciated since we live in Michigan. I highly recommend Doug and Carol!”

Not only did they show us properties in our ‘price range,’ but also introduced us to Tim Revis — one of the builders on Lake Keowee. We have been very impressed with their knowledge and integrity. Tim & Paul at Total Quality Home Builders are building our Villa  at Knots Landing.”

“We bought our “Dream Lot” through Carol and Doug and were so satisfied with the way they protected us from potential problems, while guiding us to finding real value that we worked with them on four more properties. Doug and Carol excel at finding undervalued property and helped in finding us investment properties that gave us substantial profits, profits we used to buy our first home in the mountains while our cabin is built. Honest, dependable and very knowledgeable, we highly recommend them. Thanks Guys!”
Andy & Ute, Florida
“I have been a REALTOR® in Florida for 31 years so I was very careful in selecting an agent to help us find property in the Carolinas. We were extremely blessed to find Carol and Doug. I was immediately impressed with their professionalism. They simply possess the most unique combination of personality and capability I have seen in this business. Our real estate needs were challenging. We were told that it didn't exist and were convinced that it was not to be. Carol and Doug were willing to travel a little farther and found the perfect property in a day's time. When we were ready to sell that property, they were there for us again and accomplished the task in short order. We are customers for life!”
Sharmon Hill, Sales Manager, Century 21, Avon Park, Florida
“I would highly recommend referring Doug for your clients. My recent ‘out of state’ client felt he was very professional from beginning to end and so do I. He kept me in the loop, knows the business, and he is trustworthy.”

“Ted and I want to thank Doug and Carol for helping us purchase our 25 acre horse farm near Lake Keowee. They were very knowledgeable about the property lines and the overall value of the land. They hiked the whole property with us, suggesting other possible home sites and even a great place for a lake from an existing spring-head they found. They were dealing with out-of-town buyers and sellers. It was a very fragile transaction on both sides and they handled it successfully! We were so impressed with their integrity and professionalism that I even joined their team as a Real Estate assistant. Having seen their work ethics from being both a client and a coworker I can highly recommend them.”
Karen and Ted Curtis, South Carolina
“I've always called the Pattersons my “A team.” They were the top selling agents in my development, Whitewater Ridge, for years. Doug and Carol are quick to walk the property to find its assets. The clients they led here found them, as I have, to be REALTORS® of high integrity. I can tell you first hand, as a Broker and a developer, they are good negotiators and are very thorough at handling the details.”
Mickey Vehorn
Whitewater Ridge at Waddle Mountain, Sapphire, NC
“Doug and Carol have been great friends for many years. I appreciate their down-to-earth attitude and would recommend their services to anyone. They have a passion for nature. By hiking my 25 acres they found its unique features and took photos to show it in its best light. Their extensive knowledge of the area also helped us to have multiple offers very quickly and we got a full price contact. They know how to negotiate!”
Soloman Baker, South Carolina
“Connie and I had a goal of finding the perfect property on which to build our mountain home and the Pattersons became invaluable assets in that pursuit. Their honesty was immediately evident when we discovered how closely sensitive to our desires their proposed listings matched ours. In our decision process they were particularly helpful with the survey, locating the septic system and generally keeping in touch sending photographs and GPS location. They turned what could have been overwhelming into a flawless transition from Ohio to South Carolina. They have subsequently become great personal friends and hiking buddies and we have felt very confident to recommend their type of personal service to others.”
