Hi, I'm Shoawna Hayes, a real estate agent with Realty ONE Group Dockside and proud U.S. Coast Guard veteran with 20 years of dedicated service. My background in the medical field taught me the importance of active listening, advocacy, empathy and compassion; qualities that naturally carry over in real estate. I'm here to truly hear you, support you and guide you through every step of this exciting journey. Helping people is simply in my nature. Relocating to/or within the Grand Strand can be a challenging and stressful. Having over 10 personal moves from coast to coast on my resume I understand what it feels like to be the "new kid on the block" and the priorities that come with relocating. From questions about healthcare and the DMV process to property taxes and local resources, I can help. What I've learned through trial and error can assist in guiding you through trials without the "error". When I am not assisting clients with their real estate needs, I enjoy watching our sunsets, exploring the Grand Strand, discovering local hidden gems and trying new recipes at home-I love to cook! If you're thinking about "Anchoring" at the beach or the surrounding area, let's meet for a cup of coffee and talk about how I can make that happen.
