Expert Real Estate Advice from a Local Professional. Top Producer 15 yrs | Resident over 30 yrs | Owner Big Bamboo 20 yrs

If you’re looking for a poster child for the notion that America is the land of opportunity, and Hilton Head Island offers more fertile soil than most for the growth of the American Dream, you could do far worse than Tristan O’Grady. And while the life of an island nightspot operator proved too at odds with the life of a loving father of four, O’Grady launched a successful real estate career while still running Bamboo with his brother. A realtor has to be able to really sell the island, and O’Grady has a killer elevator pitch. “When I sell real estate, I say after living on other continents, Hilton Head Island offers a better lifestyle and place to live than anywhere else in the world,” he said. “You can find bluer water or a better bar scene or a sandier beach, but when you put it all together, Hilton Head comes out on top.” And apparently it’s not a bad place to chase down the American Dream, either.

SeaPinesPlantationFor over 50 years, Sea Pines with its five miles of unspoiled beach has been the model for the modern day golf dominated communities. Sea Pines is a gated community of 5,000 residents sited on 5,200 acres of natural beauty on the southernmost tip of Hilton Head Island.

It was the Heritage Classic PGA Tournament that propelled Sea Pines to worldwide prominence. As most of the gated communities have experienced, golf is still the major draw but to be successful long term property owners have to be conscious of the changing needs and the demand for new & different amenities. Sea Pines was way ahead of the pack and has always been ahead of the curve in what it has had to offer. Sea Pines has a successful motto to “do it consistently better than any other community”.

Contained within the borders besides the racquet clubs & marinas are 54 holes of golf, 15 miles of biking, jogging trails, a forest preserve, restaurants, shops, the luxury inn, and thousands of owner and rental properties. Remarkably, much of the natural landscape of pines, giant moss-draped live oaks, palmettos, and tupelo swamps remain intact.

During the summer Sea Pines manages a children’s program for kids 4-12 under the direction of Gregg Russell, who also performs consistently at the Harbour Town Marina. Lawton Stables offers riding lessons and trail rides that meander into the swamps and forests of Sea Pines where you come face to face with natural beauty & ecology.
