Testimonials

Laury and Vic were nothing short of amazing. They met with us and we were impressed from the start. They are extremely knowledgeable about the business and answer every single question that we had. They pointed out things that we would have never known to look for. They were everything that we needed in a realtor.
Laury and Vic, thank you so much for helping us find our dream home.

Laury and Vic (Guy) were absolutely the best realtors we have worked with....ever. We have previously sold homes in Florida, Connecticut, Michigan and California using other realtors....can honestly say their company, Living Down South Realty, did a superior job in all aspects of the normally unpleasant task of selling a home. Starting with promptly getting the listing correctly posted and marketed immediately, holding creative open houses, qualifying buyers, fielding offers and negotiating the sale with an easy closing! However, my #1 accolade has to be their communication skills, 100% of all emails, texts and phone calls returned immediately! Simply the best!

Laury and Guy are amazing! We were introduced to Living Down South Realty by a realtor friend to sell our house at Lake Hartwell. They came out estimated what our asking price should be (Over $100,000 more than the other company) and we got full asking price! It took a while to find a new house and Living Down South was always available to look at every house that popped up!! We finally found our new home and could not be happier with the professionalism and caring service that we received from Laury, Guy, and Living Down South!! Now they are working to help my daughter find a home. They make it easy!!!!

We have engaged Laury & Vic at Living Down South Realty to sell two Lake Hartwell waterfront properties. The first was the sale of a waterfront lot. We are now on the cusp of closing on our waterfront home for the past 24 years. They earned 5 stars in both deals based upon Knowledge, Responsiveness and Marketing expertise. Laury stays current in all aspects of a constantly changing real estate market and her explanations are easy to understand. I get immediate responses from every contact & communication. And the marketing and advertising across all platforms is exceptional. In the future, if we have any buying or selling opportunities in areas served by Living Down South, they will be our definite go-to Realtor firm.

Guy spent months working with me to find my own little slice of heaven. He convinced me to consider a listing that I had dismissed based on the photos. I ended up falling in love with the property! He walked me through the due diligence phase, making sure I thought of and checked items I didn't know where a thing. He even attended the closing to make sure the last minute changes were made. Guy is quick to respond and always has your back.

Laury and Vic are fantastic! There is soooo much going on when you are buying/selling that it can be overwhelming. They had my back on everything(trust me, you will miss things). To feel the relief that good, honest folks are assisting you can be hard to find. But not if you use Living Down South. I have used them twice in the last month and now I consider them my friends.

Laury Gardner recently helped us purchase a lake home on Lake Hartwell. We were very impressed with Laury's knowledge of purchasing lake property and the rules and regulations of the Army Corp in relation to lake rights. Laury was very responsive to questions and worked hard to find answers to issues that arose that she had not dealt with before. Laury was very professional, positive and easy to work with. We will definitely recommend Laury to friends and family that are interested in buying or selling a home. Guy Victor was also a pleasure to work with when we purchased a home on Lake Hartwell. There were severe septic issues and Guy was at the property with the contractor making sure everything was fixed and in proper working order. He really went above and beyond to make sure we were aware of everything that was going on with the septic and pointed out other things that needed to be fixed and gave us recommendations. This husband/wife duo make an excellent real estate team!
