About Me
I'm a REALTOR® working Charleston and Beaufort. When you call or email, you get me, not an assistant.

My Story
How I Ended Up Here
Hi, I'm Michaela Burkett, a REALTOR® serving both the Charleston and Beaufort, SC markets.
I'm a firefighter wife, a girl mom and a surfer. My husband and I both went to Coastal Carolina University, then spent time in Australia and California before coming back to the Lowcountry and staying. I've lived in South Carolina for over a decade and have lived all over the state, so I understand what it's like to choose where you want to call home.
Whether you're buying your first home, relocating, looking for a vacation property, or simply trying to figure out which Lowcountry community feels right, I'm here to make real estate simple, straightforward, and a whole lot less overwhelming.
Think of me as your local resource, your real estate guide, and hopefully someone you'll want to call long after closing day.

How I Can Help
What I Help With
These are the three situations I work in most, and what I do in each one.
First-Time Buyers
We start by getting you with a lender so you know the monthly payment, not just the price. I'll read through every document with you before you sign it.
How Buying Works
Relocating
You're picking a town before you pick a house. We'll narrow Charleston, Summerville, Beaufort and Bluffton down before you fly out to look.

Selling
I price your house off what's recently sold near you, and I'll show you those sales. I'll also tell you which repairs are worth doing first.
How Selling GoesCredentials
My Designations
These are extra courses and exams past the licence. Two cover representing buyers and sellers, and one is negotiation.
01
ABR®
Accredited Buyer Representative
The buyer-side designation from the National Association of REALTORS®. It covers how to represent a buyer through the search, the offer and the contract.
02
RENE
Certified Real Estate Negotiation Expert
Negotiation training. Most of what I use it for is offers and the repair conversation after an inspection.
03
SRS
Seller Representative Specialist
The seller-side equivalent. Pricing, preparing a house to list, and handling offers once it's on the market.
