The Lachicotte Company Review

Christy Whitlock walked us through our first home buying experience with absolute grace. She was always available to answer any questions we had and did so promptly. She very quickly became part of our family! We are grateful to have been able to work with Christy during this process, couldn t have asked for a better experience!

Amazing place at N. Litchfield. Lachicotte made it a great experience. Thanks.

Tyson Jones helped us find our beach condo! She was a joy to work with and very professional. She quickly responded to any questions or needs we had during the process. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new home!

We rented a house in Pawleys for 18 months with Lachicotte. They were very easy to deal with throughout our stay. Holly was our main contact, and she was always available and made things very easy for us as tenants. Thanks Lachicotte!

Very professional. Very polite. Very eager to get the job done and done right!

My wife and I were looking at retirement spots in Florida and Mt Pleasant, SC. We happened to have the good fortune to come across a quirky home that Christy Whitlock was listing agent for in Pawleys Island. While this particular house did not work for us, Christy drove us all around, introducing us to the area and was just a wealth of information. As well as being totally up on the local real estate market, she has in-depth knowledge from the history to current affairs, which was so important to us. We decided to add this area to our search.
After returning to Northern VA, we eventually came across a character house in DeBordieu Colony that caught our fancy. Christy volunteered to preview the home for us and worked closely with us in structurIng an offer. There were a lot of moving parts and she was super responsive! When our situation turned into one with multiple offers, Christy was extremely helpful and professional in guiding us through this process, which we re happy to say, came out in our favor.
We had a great experience with Christy and would highly recommend her, especially to those seeking an agent deeply connected with the community.

Tyson Jones is without a doubt the best Relator ever. She was patient, understanding and always responded to all of our questions very quickly. Tyson was very professional and I always felt she was looking out for our best interest.

Great old Pawleys House. The only complaint - there should be a note somewhere that the dryer is inoperable and the Washing machine is terrible. Both should be replaced.

Lachicotte is the best real estate company in the area. Bobby Stokes is one of the reasons and always does right by me.

I bought a house through Mike Andrews at The Lachicotte Company and he answered all my phone calls and emails quickly.

A wonderful real estate company with lots of knowledge ......congratulations Christy Whitlock and Chuck Cooper on your new acquisition

I sold my first house through them and I would use The Lachicotte Company again because they made the process so easy and smooth.

My experience was outstanding in every respect. From the "business" aspects of renting the house, to assistance with various questions during our stay, to timely response to a plumbing issue, to checkout, Lachicotte personnel were available, knowledgeable, and "mission oriented" in getting the job done. Great job all round! See you again.

Had an agent there to help me very quickly & rest of staff nice

The only thing better than finding our dream beach house was having the pleasure of working with Kathy Besse. She is very knowledgeable in real estate field and The Strand area but what sets her apart is that she goes above and beyond in the customer relationship. We purchased from out of state on a tight timeframe and she made it work, accommodating our schedule every step of the way. From first contact to closing 6 weeks later she made the process as smooth as possible but what happened next truly sets her apart. Hurricane Matthew hit days after we closed, Kathy to took the time to reach out, answering questions, keeping us informed and calming our fears. We will be forever grateful and gladly recommend her to anyone looking for an agent that will exceed your expectations!

We were so very fortunate to have met Dana Stokes at an open house we just happened to stop at. We immediately felt at home with her and knew this was our realtor!!! Over the course of a few month Dana stayed in touch providing us with updates, but never pushy. When were were ready to look at properties Dana arranged her schedule so we could spend the few days we had looking at properties. Dana has the patience of a Saint and the charm of a family member. We could not have been more impressed with her knowledge of Pawleys Island and the Real Estate market!! When we finally decided to make an offer Dana was right there with us to help throughout the home buying process!! I cannot think of a better person or realtor to help you find your Dream Home!! Thank you Dana! You are the best!!

We enjoyed our stay. It was clean and well kept. We would stay there again.

We've rented through Lachicotte many many times in Debordieu over the years. Never any issues. Great company to do business with!

This company use to be great not anymore. We rented a place on Watersedge Drive and had to move because it flooded and no one fixed the issue and the work inside the unit was never finished, but we were expected to still pay 925 a month. I spoke to others that lived in similar units and they could not believe we were paying that much because they pay 800 or less. Not worth it!!!!

I tried to work with other real estate companies before I found The Lachicotte Company and they have been excellent. They are so easy to work with.

very accommodating, very easy check in and check out

We have used this agency for over 10 years. We know that the house will always be well cared for and ready for guests.
We often have short notice of travel and non traditional requests of the days we can be there . They are very diligent in finding an owner/house that will work with our requests .
Pawleys Island is our go to happy place!

The Waverly Neighborhood in Pawleys Island is a very unique location. After 25 years in our home, we knew that we needed a realtor that understood the Pawleys Island culture as well as the value of our home and its unique surroundings. Christie has the exceptional qualities of a genuine personality combined with a business acumen to understand and execute expectations. With her exceptional marketing strategy our home sold in less than two months. It is all about trust ..we highly recommend The Lachicotte Company as the professionals in the industry.

The Latchicotte Company is an awesome real estate company. I had the pleasure to work with Dana Stokes. Working with Dana made my home search and buying process soo easy. She really showed that she care by listening to my wants and needs in a home. Her honesty and devotion to providing excellent service is why I would want to work with Dana again. I highly recommend Dana to anyone looking for a realitor.

We have a group of 11 (siblings & spouses 5 couples and 1 individual) this house is ideal as everyone has their own space (6 bedrooms with private baths) and 1 half. Note....one bedroom has 2 queen beds (we only need one in that room) we take the other mattress and put it on the (uncomfortable) pullout couch in the TV room & make a very nice bedroom suite (with private bath). A large kitchen (love the gas stove) two dishwashers. There could be a few more dinning room chairs...but, there is a small table with chairs close that can be added for extra seating. Added bonus is an elevator (which we really need for 2 in our group) and there's a swimming pool and ample parking. Easy walk to the beach!! View is mostly is of the creek. Also....Lachicotte is extremely easy to work with!! Love this Island!!

I sold my house through The Lachicotte Company and they kept me well informed on any changes in the market and answered questions I had.

Pam at The Lachicotte Company is very well informed and knowledgeable of the area. I knew she was good when she was showing me properties and I trust her with these types of things.

We found Lachicotte Company through the Internet and one of their beautiful listings. We did not pursue the listing we initially saw, but we were happy with the agent, Darissa Thompson, whom we met via telephone and emails. We made a trip from California to Pawleys Island for a weekend with the purpose of buying a property. She is an awesome agent and wonderful representative of the Lachicotte Company's service and commitment to helping buyers! She was thorough, and knowledgeable and a delight to work with!

We closed on our house in March and hired the Lachicotte Company Rental Division to secure a tenant for us in our beautiful new home in Heritage Plantation. We are very happy with their service in finding us a long-term tenant who moves in this month.

In using them as both a "buyer" and "owner", we are very happy with Lachicotte Company, and Darissa Thompson, and highly recommend this company!

Our Realtors name was Lorie Easton and she went above and beyond her professional duty to get our home closed in a timely manner. We could not have asked for a better realtor. She was right there every step of the way and every time we needed her she came through with flying colors. Awesome job Lorie.

We have been coming to Litchfield to vacation for the last 10 years and this was the worst experience we have ever had. We rented the Dale House and this house should not be rented in the condition it is in. There was black mold on the ceiling, the upholstery was covered in cat urine (we brought beach chairs inside to sit down), the disposal didn t work, and the mattress pads were covered in cat hair. The cabinets in the kitchen were covered in a greasy substance, the stove was literally falling off the hinges and almost every piece of furniture was broken. There were stains on the upholstery and comforters (some that looked like blood). We were disgusted and called the office at least 5 times and went by the office to voice our complaints and no one ever returned our calls. We emailed after our stay to discuss the horrible, unsanitary condition the rental was in and received no apology or reparations. They need to fix the condition of this house before allowing families to be duped into renting. Had I known more about this house, I would have never brought my children and stayed here (especially as I am pregnant). Very disappointed.

The creekside house with a dock allowed us to kayak, fish, crab and float. The house is on a good lot on the island. We were just a short walk to the beach access. The house is an older home but has been restored & upgraded. Beds were comfortable but too high. Rooms are small. There are no ceiling lights so lamps are the only lighting inside except hall light which did not work and light over the island. Kitchen is large enough to cook in but outlet by toaster does not work. Ice maker does not drop ice. Having the extra refrigerator downstairs helps store food & ice. WiFi signal was too weak to sign on with laptop. Beautifully decorated furnishings & artwork but too much for renters to be comfortable using tables & counters without moving things. Description advertises a boat ramp, which makes entering water with a kayak easier than a dock but there is a tree blocking a trailer from backing from the driveway. You have to carry your kayak down to the water. You cannot launch a small motorboat from this dock. There is a boat landing a short distance away. Make sure you check with the agency prior to arrival on Sunday because they are closed on Sundays. I did not receive an email with the necessary code to access the lock box with our keys. Thanks to the Real Estate agent listed on a sign who made calls and gave me the code. Thanks to families like the Mosers who allow strangers to enjoy their home.

I sold my house through The Lachicotte Company and Lou was wonderful, she was very professional and personable. I am happy with my decisions I made and how everything turned out.

Kathy Besse is a fantastic realtor, never gives up and keeps on hitting the pavement looking for the best property fit for you. She tirerlessly worked to find us our home in Pawleys Island for almost a year and never tried to sell us a home that didn't fit our needs. Great job Kathy keep up the good work!

We love the Bedford House!!! Everything was just lovely, including the weather. We''ll be back. Lachicote does things right.

I had The Lachicotte Company sell a home for me about 7 months ago and I couldn't be happier. Thank you for doing such a great job.

Our return to our favorite beach and beach house was again fantastic. Lachicotte Company went above and beyond to assure our stay was very comfortable. Thank you.

If I could, I would give our realtor Theresa Cagle ten stars. During our closing negotiations she advised as to get every dollar possible. Theresa answered all our calls and questions quickly and professionally. She is everything you want in a realtor!!

very helpful, friendly staff... and the office is beautiful! good experience!

I sold my house with The Lachicotte Company and they treated me so well. I would use them again.
