Buying with the Nat Wallen Team

Buy with confidence, not sales pressure.

The home buying process is stressful enough. The last thing you need is being pushed. Instead, we’ll help you get familiar with Charleston, in multiple ways, so you can make your decision, how you see fit.

Our Process
From no idea where to start, to this feels like home.
Nat Elizabeth Stairs 1

Whether you are sort of familiar, or totally new to buying in Charleston, understanding is first on the list. We want you to know Charleston like we do. Here’s what to expect when you work with any agent on our team.

We’ll start with a real conversation
How familiar are you with Charleston? Are schools important? What time do you go to work and where? What’s your most comfortable budget?
We won’t be afraid to tell you when you can do better
At this point we are in constant contact. When we see something good, we’ll jump on it - Fast. We want to make sure the decision is solid, and we won’t hold back if we feel you can do better.
Found the one? Let’s map out the offer
You’ve got certain needs, and this is where it’s important. Of course the best price and terms are our goals, but it also has to fit your specific situation. Details matter here, big time.
Just a few more steps until you can call it yours
We need to make sure the house is as it should be. Inspections, appraisals, termite letters - all of it is important and we are here to guide you until you feel good, and know everything.
Welcome Home!
Yes - you did it! You went from not knowing to a smile with keys in your hand. Our next step is helping you be the best homeowner you can be! From our trusted connections, to periodic investment updates - we are here are for the long term.
Free Driving Tours
See all of Charleston, and have fun!

When we say we want you to know Charleston like we do, we mean it. This is why we created Charleston driving tours of all the notable areas.

Our Reviews
A real estate experience like this is hard to find.

There’s a reason why over 1000 people have asked us to help them buy or sell in Charleston. It’s because we sell everything from your first home where memories are made, to historic charmers, to luxury waterfront properties all over the Charleston area. We get the job done and make greatest friends along the way.

I have worked with at least 75-100 realtors in the last 13 years of my real estate investing and mortgage career. I can honestly say, not one of them has ever included a testimonial video to their signature. I'm not only extremely impressed with you, but also a little dumbfounded that this is something new to me. I think you may be one of the most professional, well spoken and truly committed realtors that I will ever come across.

Chris A. Seller

We decided to interview several top agents. We hired Nat and he took immediate action and sold our home quickly in a tough market.

Charles D. Seller

Honest, genuine, hard working... these are just a few of Nat's qualities. We have done 3 transactions with him and highly recommend him to others.

Gary S. Seller

I saw one of Nat's video tours on the web and decided to contact him. That was a good first move. As new buyers in a market we knew nothing about, Nat's guidance and local knowledge has been invaluable. When we had challenges, he was always there with a solution.

Eric S. Buyer

Elizabeth kept in touch with us every few weeks until we were ready. She never used high pressure, and she was seemingly available for my endless questions as a first timer. Thanks Elizabeth!

Jennifer R. Buyer

If you are looking for an honest, hard working and competent agent, we recommend you give Nat a call.

Thanks for the free home management software Nat! It was a nice little plus that we were not expecting... Love the name too!

Casey O. Seller

Nat listened, he paid attention to important details, he was in constant contact, and he kept us updated from the moment the sign went up. I highly recommend him!

Emily W. Seller

Nat is in no way "cookie cutter". We had a tough situation at the end, and Nat's commitment to our life plans lifted the entire scenario to a different level. There is no question that he will actively pursue the sale of your property.

Meredith S. Buyer and Seller

Nat is both courteous and professional. If you need help selling, he is the guy!

Frequently asked questions
How do I start the home-buying process in Charleston?

The first step is to connect with our team for a personalized consultation. We’ll discuss your goals, budget, and ideal home criteria to develop a strategic plan.

How do you help buyers find the right home?

We provide a tailored search, leveraging our deep market knowledge and access to exclusive listings to match you with the perfect home.

Do I need a pre-approval before starting my home search?

Yes! A mortgage pre-approval strengthens your buying power and ensures we focus on homes within your budget. We can connect you with trusted local lenders.

What happens if multiple heirs disagree about selling the property?

If there are multiple heirs and not everyone agrees on selling, the probate court may need to intervene. This can delay the process, and in some cases, the court may order a sale to fairly distribute proceeds among heirs. Mediation can sometimes resolve disputes before reaching court intervention.

How do you handle negotiations?

We advocate fiercely for our buyers, using market data and expert negotiation strategies to secure the best terms and pricing.

What if I’m buying from out of town?

Our relocation services include virtual consultations, video home tours, and comprehensive neighborhood insights to help you make an informed decision from anywhere.

How can I access new listings before they hit the market?

Our exclusive network gives us early access to properties, ensuring our clients get the first look at prime opportunities.

What inspections are needed when buying a home?

A general home inspection is recommended, along with specialized inspections for termites, roofing, plumbing, or structural concerns, depending on the home’s condition.

⁠What should I expect in the closing process?

We guide you through every step, from reviewing contracts to finalizing financing and coordinating inspections, ensuring a smooth transition to homeownership.

How do I make a competitive offer in Charleston’s market?

We analyze market trends, seller motivation, and comparable sales to craft an offer that stands out while protecting your best interests.
