Janet Berkeley

Real Estate Advisor . Beaufort & the Lowcountry

A trusted advisor.

A personal approach.

With more than two decades of real estate experience, I bring a seasoned, highly personal approach to helping clients buy and sell exceptional homes throughout Beaufort and the South Carolina Lowcountry.

My career began in 2005 with Allen Tate Realtors in Charlotte, North Carolina, where I was named Rookie of the Year for the South Park office.

Since then, my work has spanned residential sales, relocation, historic properties, renovation, coaching, and client advocacy through every kind of market cycle.

A strong foundation

Residential sales and relocation experience across multiple markets since 2005.

Industry leadership

Former Productivity Coach with Keller Williams in Atlanta, mentoring agent in business development, systems and client service.

Professional standards

Current service on South Carolina Professional Standards and Grievance Committees.

HISTORIC HOMES & DISTINCTIVE PROPERTIES

An eye for character.

A respect for history.

My perspective on real estate extends well beyond the transaction. Hands-on experience restoring historic homes gives me a discerning eye for craftsmanship, construction, architectural integrity, and potential.


While living in North Carolina, my preservation and renovation work was recognized with multiple awards.


That background is especially valuable when evaluating older, distinctive, or one-of-a-kind properties.

Seeing what makes a home exceptional.

Craftmanship

Architectural integrity
