Trying to buy a commercial property for our business had become a daunting task until we hired Jenna Philipp with Palmetto Commercial Properties as our real estate agent. Unlike other agents, Jenna was able to effectively navigate through difficult negotiations with professionalism and candor. Jenna came highly recommended to us by other small businesses in the area, and after having her represent us, we can see why. She is passionate about what she does and she genuinely cares about building a better community for local business in Charleston. We doubt that we would have been able to buy our building without Jenna’s help. She has not only become our go-to real estate professional, but also our auspicious business advocate – going above and beyond her scope of work and demonstrating that she is actively involved in the continued development of our local economy. We are fortunate enough to know Jenna and look forward to our continued business with her.

Our company, Long Point Family Chiropractic, retained Will Phillips to negotiate a lease agreement for our office at 498 Wando Park Blvd in Mount Pleasant, Sc. We had been leasing the space since March of 2007 and our lease was up for renewal in March of 2012. Will was able to show us a wide variety of office spaces that were available in the area to show us comparable rates and spaces in Mount Pleasant. After looking at the available spaces, we determined our best option was to renew our existing lease with our current landlord. Will was able to negotiate a decrease of approximately $400 per month compared to our previous rate. He was also able to add an additional clause in our contract to cover us in case of any repair expense associated with our heating and air conditioning unit. It just happened to break down about 2 months after our renewal and because of the addendum added, our landlord paid for the cost of the repairs. Will provided a thorough, tress-free, and professional experience to our negotiations and we would highly recommend him for any initial or renegotiation of a commercial lease agreement.
