THE DELCHER DIFFERENCE
What Our Clients Say
We were introduced to Duke when we realized we wanted to make Berkeley Hall our home. South Carolina is a new adventure for us! We so enjoyed working with him. Duke was very knowledgeable about the lots that were available and couldn’t do enough to answer our questions. We had an easy process picking our lot and he was helpful during the building process. He guided us with our homeowner’s insurance and home inspection. We would highly recommend Duke if you plan to live in the Bluffton area.
– Bob and Barb Azarik, Berkeley Hall Seller
We used Duke to buy and sell our first house on Hilton Head Island. Our experience was so positive we returned to him to purchase our second. Duke is prompt, thorough, knows the market and pushed us just enough to look in a neighborhood we weren’t leaning towards and it ended up being the perfect spot. We are thrilled with our new home and would return to Duke again with any real estate needs. We highly recommend Duke and Linda!
– Sarah and Ray DiCamillo, HHI Buyers & Sellers
Linda and Duke are the best! We highly recommend them.
Linda and Duke are highly responsive and provided great personal service every step of the way. They were particularly indispensable in helping us navigate through inspection requirements. They are uniquely qualified agents…and wonderful people to work with.
– Seller, 8 Drayton Hall
First class experience!
Duke and Linda are true real estate professionals. With their help, we were able to sell our home quickly and efficiently. We continue to work with them as we search for our new home.
– Seller, 61 Hopsewee Drive
Duke and Linda Delcher recently sold our home in Berkeley Hall. They were very good at marketing the home with top notch advertising and photography for the property. Their support staff at Charter One Realty was also very professional. When issues arose during the negotiations and closing, they were quick to respond.
On the negative side, this is the first time, with the number of houses we have sold in various states, that the listing agent was not involved personally showing the house. I feel that the positive features of a home can only be highlighted best by one that really knows the home, not an agent seeing it for the first time. I also feel that the listing agent should be present for the inspection. This again was the case in all our previous transactions. This could be the way things are now with a manic real estate market, but we didn’t like that part at all. (Duke and Linda, if you want to use our review, feel free to leave the negative part out. It was just a little venting and a critic of the market, at least at Berkeley Hall)
– Lance and Sharon, Seller, 16 Prospect Lane

Great selling experience!
Our overall experience with Delcher and Delcher was excellent.

Highly recommended.

– Seller, 272 Good Hope Road
Professional and efficient. Both Duke and Linda Delcher and their staff were very efficient, professional, and welcoming. I highly recommend them.
– Seller, 156 Good Hope Road
Best in the business! From the start Linda and Duke helped me through this process of selling a home that I lived in for 20 years. They communicated almost daily and gave help and support when needed. When I purchase again they will be #1 on my list. Thank you, Linda and Duke.
– Seller, 245 Belfair Oaks Boulevard
Extremely professional. They know not only the overall market but what makes any given home unique in the market. No one knows the market better.
– Seller, 3 York Circle
A 5-star experience from start to finish. We really don’t know how the buying and selling process with Duke and Linda could be any better. Their delightful, calm demeanor throughout helped soothe the stress that moving creates. Excellent communication and professionalism every step of the way. First, they knew what we wanted and found the perfect home which we bought after one viewing. Only 3 days later they sold our house, again after one viewing. It seemed too good to be true. We highly recommend their services!
– Seller, 328 Good Hope Road
Sold my house in one day! The Delcher’s understand the Lowcountry golf communities like no other brokers. I found them to be extremely organized, professional, and very easy to work with. I let them guide me on what to list my house for based on their due diligence with the comps in our area. They marketed my home quickly and exceptionally. I had a contract on my house before it was actually listed on MLS. I highly recommend the Delcher’s if you are looking for experienced brokers who know this market and are a pleasure to work with!
– Seller, 8 Holly Grove Road
Incredible People. We first met in 2016 during an open house of our dream retirement home. We weren’t able to purchase at that time and the Delcher’s found us the Peninsula home. August 2020 our dream home was again available. Our offer was accepted the day our dream home was listed; the Delcher’s sold Peninsula within 5 days of listing it. We live four states away. Duke and Linda took care of everything; both transactions went smoothly. They have our highest recommendation.
– Seller, 60 Peninsula Drive
Delcher and Delcher are the BEST! The DELCHER team is one of the best in The Hilton Head/Bluffton area. When they listed our townhome, we were anxious for it to sell. Their on-point marketing, availability for questions, business acumen and professionalism were the keys to selling our home in 2 weeks! They guided us through the process step by step and reassured us when we needed it.
– Seller, 1106/20 Lighthouse Lane
Duke (especially with his background) and Linda have an excellent grasp of the condition of the real estate market in gated communities. Both Linda and Duke are responsive and provide frank information on the market and what should or should not be done to sell your property.
– Seller, 5 Holly Grove Road
Very good communication and follow-up. Marketing was first class.
– Seller, 8 Whitehall Drive
I used the Delcher team not only once but 3 times they sold my places in no time.
They are very professional, and I trust them. 100 percent.
– Seller, 30 Cedar Lane
Simply the best! Duke and Linda brought this property to us to buy and when it was time to sell, they took great care of us from start to finish. Duke went above and beyond handling this for us and we couldn’t be happier. Outstanding service before, during and after the sale. Simply the best!
– Seller, 2 Willingham Court
We spoke with several real estate firms before making our decision to hire a realtor. The decision to hire Delcher and Delcher was an easy one.
In the midst of a global pandemic with Covid-19 cases spiking in our area we wondered about even listing our home in Colleton River. Delcher and Delcher provided impactful knowledge, market awareness and real data to my wife and me.
Their presentations were supported by analytics. Real market research supported by real data. Very impressive. Historical and current data, broad and local data and most importantly, meaningful data. Delcher and Delcher made many of the unknowns to us known. We had not met them before engaging them to sell our home, but we felt from the very beginning that they knew us. They understood.
Regular and timely communication was a top priority of ours and with Delcher and Delcher it is their foundation. In a very busy time, they would respond quickly with the answer we were seeking. Not just talk, but a real and honest answer.
For a very positive and professional real estate sale experience Delcher and Delcher is the top choice.
– Sellers, Linda and John Bedker, Colleton River
Exceptional service when selling our property in Colleton River.
Having the both of you as part of our “Team” always gave us a sense of confidence throughout the process. Your warm welcoming demeanor, your marketing strategies, your expertise and insights regarding Colleton enabled us to meet our goals stress free and in a timely manner. We know that when we return to Colleton to purchase our next home, our expectations and needs will once again be fulfilled by a winning team of real estate agents.
– Seller, Bob and Patricia Ryder, Colleton River
Duke is by far the best person and most knowledgeable person to guide you through a purchase in the Lowcountry. He helped us pick the right community for our needs, was an expert in the negotiations to get a great deal and didn’t stop after we purchased the home. We are new to the area, and he helped refer us to various skilled professionals to help maintain and set up our new home. Duke is fantastic and was very patient as we waited for the perfect home to come on the market. I would not hesitate to refer Duke and Linda to anyone looking to buy in Bluffton/Hilton Head.
– Frank & Michelle Jones, Bluffton Buyers
Very positive experience in a very challenging real estate market.
– Buyer, 49 Hopsewee Road
Great helping with Relocation!
Linda was fantastic helping us find the right home for us and really good with recommendations for all the services we would require to get settled in properly. She made us feel so comfortable which really helped us relax and make a good decision. Duke and Linda helped negotiate a deal that was satisfactory to both parties. Were a little disappointed they were not more attentive to the inspection. Also, a little less attentive after the close but overall, we are very happy with our new home and the job they did to get us here.
– Buyer, 340 Good Hope Road
Wonderful agents to work with! Very knowledgeable and accommodating!!
They spent time needed & went above and beyond to answer all questions. Extremely nice, good-hearted people!!
– Buyer, 149 Farnsleigh Ave
Relocation Made Easy!!!
We are so grateful to Duke and Linda for making our relocation to Bluffton so effortless. As we were based several hours away during the purchasing process, Duke and Linda managed all aspects of our purchase. They oversaw all home inspection action items and made sure our closing was effortless for both the buyers and sellers. We could not have asked for a better experience! We would recommend Delcher & Delcher to anyone moving within or to Bluffton, SC!!!
– Buyer, 14 Arcadia Place
Our experience with the Delchers in buying a new home and then selling ours was terrific!
We decided to check out the real estate market in Berkeley Hall, where we were currently living, and called the Delchers about a listed home. We chose the Delchers because of their fine reputation in the real estate market in our area. However, that particular home did not turn out to be the home for us. We did not need to move, so we told Duke and Linda we only wanted something we fell in love with.
They called a few weeks later and said they’d found the perfect house for us …….and it was!
We’re now the proud new owners of that property.
Next came the sale of our current home. Linda and Duke were so helpful. Their marketing strategies were terrific. They made a lovely brochure featuring the various rooms and amenities of our home. A number of agents showed our home, and within a short time we had an offer.
Linda also was very helpful in guiding us through the closing process, the property inspections, and finding us a move manager who also found us a mover. Once the ball was rolling, the whole process was seamless!
We would strongly recommend the Delchers to anyone in the Bluffton/ Hilton Head area planning to buy or sell a home.
– Buyer, 328 Good Hope Road
I just wanted to reach out to you and thank you from the bottom of my heart. Tom & I are so thrilled to finally be making the move to Bluffton! The Hopsewee home is so perfect, even though I haven’t seen it yet, but I can tell from the pictures that it is a really a lovely home and suits us perfectly. I know we will have many new memories going forward.
Thank you so much Duke for always staying connected with us over all these many, many years. We greatly appreciated it!
Have a wonderful day & I look forward to seeing you both soon in beautiful South Carolina!
– Buyer, Kimberly Alessi, 61 Hopsewee Drive
We are so excited about our move to Colleton River. Thank you so much for your guidance and knowledge of the Bluffton area to get us across the finish line.
– Buyers, Tom & Betty Jo, Colleton River
When my husband & I were researching golf community properties in the Hilton Head/Beaufort/Bluffton area, we found Linda & Duke Belcher. They were not only very professional; but they understood our needs and let us find the right place for us. No opinions; no pressure. We eventually found our home (the last one we looked at) and we couldn’t be happier! Duke and Linda were great to work with & we would recommend them with great enthusiasm!
– Buyers, Schultz’s, Colleton River
We worked with the Delchers on both the sale of our existing home and the purchase of another property.
They provided a thorough review of our existing property and reasonable estimates on the market value and potential selling price. Linda and Duke are experienced in the Hilton Head and adjacent markets.
They also provided opinions on the change in pricing strategy that should be considered. In addition, they also brought to our sale the buyer of our property and avoided any conflicts that could have arisen.
Highly recommended!
– John Rittenhouse
So happy to have found Duke and Linda Delcher. They are extremely knowledgeable about the Bluffton, Hilton Head area and did a great job of keeping us informed about homes and lots that met our requirements, while not pressuring us to jump into something that wasn’t quite right for us. They worked with us for months until we found “the one.” We’re convinced that only would have happened with the patience, experience and perseverance of Duke and Linda. Have already referred several friends to them and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for a realtor in the area.
– Beej nardozzo
Delcher and Delcher of Charter One Realty in Hilton Head did an admirable job selling our house in Bluffton in late 2024. The market was not ideal, but Linda and Duke kept track of the continuous changes in supply and demand, worked seriously to make our asking price competitive, and once we were under contract, work daily to insure the closing took place on time. There are no surprises from this professional couple; they really work for you and we would use their services again without hesitation.
From a communication aspect, they were way above average. I was in the real estate business for forty years so feel qualified to recommend them to anyone.
– Alessandra Domina
Duke & Linda were exceptional every step of the way from our first meeting to closing. They worked with us to identify the homes and neighborhoods best suited to our needs and showed us several great options as soon as or often before they hit the market. II highly recommend.
– Timothy McManus
The Delcher & Delcher group were an excellent choice we made when selling our existing home in Colleton River and purchasing another property in the same location. Both Linda and Duke were instrumental in guiding us through a very difficult sale. Closings can be difficult when negotiating a multi million dollar sale. We had two professionals who iron out all the fine points and made the sale equitable for both parties. They took the lead in the sale and we were pleased to have them both representing us in the transaction. I would not hesitate to recommend Delcher & Delcher for any real estate transaction here in the Low Country of South Carolina.
– Bob & Lorene Pavlacka, Colleton River Club
Duke & Linda Delcher are terrific. Made my home search very easy and efficient. Very professional, knowledgable and also very patient. I highly recommend their real estate services.

– Ted Buchter
We have had three transactions with Duke and Linda and about to have fourth. I have always been impressed by their sales ability for both buyers and sellers. We are comfortable with trusting them with our deals.
– Bonnie and Ed Mullin
We found Duke and Linda through Zillow by clicking the link to send a message and received a call in minutes, on a Sunday morning no less. Buying in SC while living in PA is difficult logistically but Duke and Linda made every trip very efficient and are the most organized couple I know. They immediately sought to understood our style and needs and tailored very quickly a list of options. When the first deal fell through due to flood zone issues, they started back up instantly and assured us we would find the right place for us – and they did! Every part of working with this husband wife team was a pleasure. We ended up with a beautiful home and two new friends.
– Eric Hess

– Buyer in 2014
My wife and I have worked with Duke over the past 4 months in search of a home in the Bluffton area resulting in a purchase which met our desires. Duke enabled the purchase activity to be a pleasant experience. All communications were prompt and to the point without any pressure. He organized the viewing of homes in a manner which made the most of our time which was limited. His advice and negotiating skills are superb. As well Karen Laszig (Closing Coordinator) was most helpful in providing us all the necessary info, enabling us to easily arrange for utilities. A great experience and Duke is truly a Professional.
– Buyer in 2015
Duke and Linda Delcher are excellent in every aspect of the real estate process. First and foremost, they listen to you and your objectives. The process of either buying or selling real estate is a complex combination of many factors. Communication, extensive market knowledge, and attention to detail are the cornerstones of the Delcher & Delcher real estate experience. Duke and Linda made our real estate sale a complete success through their dedicated efforts to meet our goals in a timely manner. Duke and Linda Delcher were tremendous from listing to closing.
– Seller in 2014
Based on our experience with Duke and Linda in selling our home in Bluffton, we would highly recommend their services. They are very knowledgeable in all communities in the Hilton Head Island and Bluffton area markets. They are particularly knowledgable and effective in the gated golf course communities market.
If we were to buy or sell another home in this area, we would not considered using anyone other than Duke and Linda. They are a highly knowledgeable, personable and professional team. They focus on your needs and work hard to get results! We highly recommend them!
– Seller in 2014
I have used the Delcher group to purchase a home and was very happy I also recommended them to other’s who also purchased a home and was very happy also.
