Gettys Glaze: Charleston's Real Estate Powerhouse

Title: Meet Gettys Glaze: Charleston's Real Estate Powerhouse | Real Estate Excellence Podcast

Intro
I'm Tracy Hayes, and on Episode 11 of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, I sat down with someone who shares more than just a real estate passion with me—Gettys Glaze and I were classmates at The Citadel. I thought I knew Gettys until this conversation revealed the incredible depth of his journey. From the baseball diamond to Charleston real estate boardrooms, Gettys has built a career marked by discipline, leadership, and heart.

Why Gettys Glaze Stands Out in Charleston Real Estate
Gettys Glaze is the founder of The Sandlapper Group, a boutique real estate firm built on precision, ethics, and high-performance teamwork. Based in Charleston, SC, Gettys has been serving buyers and sellers for over 20 years, building not just a business but a brand rooted in community and consistency.

His real estate journey began after a professional baseball career with the Boston Red Sox organization and a historic College World Series run at The Citadel. That same competitive mindset and forward-thinking strategy now drive his approach to negotiating deals and leading his elite team of agents.

Benefits for Buyers
If you're buying in Charleston, Mt. Pleasant, or Summerville, Gettys is the type of agent you want on your side. His local knowledge is unmatched, and he has a deep network throughout the Lowcountry. Buyers benefit from:

Expert navigation of tight inventory markets
Structuring winning offers in competitive bidding situations
Deep understanding of neighborhood dynamics

Benefits for Sellers
Sellers gain a strategic partner who:

Knows how to maximize your home's value
Utilizes 20+ years of market trends to price precisely
Delivers elite service without flashy gimmicks

Gettys has built a reputation on trust, not billboards. As he puts it, "I don't guarantee offers in 24 hours. I guarantee commitment."

Host Insight: Tracy's Reflection
What impressed me most about Gettys wasn't just his resume—it was his humility and clarity of purpose. He could've chosen any path, and he chose to build something lasting in Charleston. His story is a masterclass in long-game thinking. From family lessons to building a balanced life in business, Gettys shows that success isn't about luck; it's about focus.
