It has been said that Charleston is one of the most complex real estate markets in the entire US. 

One block of the city is high ground in a rainstorm, the next is under water.  One section of a street is ultra high-end and a few blocks  down can be in disrepair.  We navigate tropical storms and our properties must be correctly built to withstand hurricanes.  We have elegant historic homes that predate the founding of our nation and have historic easements and other considerations. Different property uses have various tax treatments.  Like two works of art at an auction, seemingly similar properties in Charleston can have subtle differences that majorly affect value and saleability.  An agent who is not knowledgeable of this can be very costly.
