STOREFRONT The instantly-recognizable granite façade coupled with the bustling foot traffic along Broad Street make this an ideal business space.

LOCATION 19 Broad Street is located in the oldest part of historic downtown Charleston, at the intersection of the South of Broad and French Quarter neighborhoods. It's one block from some of Charleston's most famous attractions, including the Battery and White Point Garden, the Market, Rainbow Row, Waterfront Park with its picturesque Pineapple Fountain, and even the oldest liquor store in America. Walk to the Four Corners of Law, St. Philip's Church, the Dock Street Theatre, the Old Exchange & Provost Dungeon, the Nathaniel Russell House, the William's (formerly Calhoun) Mansion, and more.

The best restaurants, shopping, history, architecture, parks, art galleries, and museums that Charleston has to offer are all just footsteps away from the Jacobson Building. 19 BROAD STREET HISTORY The original structure at 19 Broad Street was built in 1794 by local merchant Andrew Kerr. Then in 1817 it was rebuilt to house a bank. It was remodeled with a new façade (the first floor of which remains) in 1840. It continued to serve as various banks until 1861 at the outbreak of the Civil War. In 1873, it became the headquarters of The News and Courier, a predecessor to today's Post and Courier. It served in this capacity until 1902. The earthquake of 1886 caused significant damage, but it was repaired, as evinced by its earthquake bolts. Afterwards, the top 2 stories became simple stucco over brick. The Jacobson Building (as well as Jake's Market) earned its current moniker from lawyer I.H. "Jake" Jacobson, who bought the building to start his law firm in 1953. For 20 years, he practiced law here until his death in 1973. At this point it was passed to his grandson, the current owner. He converted to the current inn/condo concept in 2002, while retaining the ground-level storefront. Now you have the opportunity to put your mark on this extraordinary building with 18th century roots.
About Me
What makes me different and more worthy than any other agent? Great Question…
1.) I have been in the real estate industry since 1998
2.) At 29 years old I founded a wholesale mortgage firm here in Charleston and as such being the President/CEO I was responsible for overseeing 13 team members, two branches, ALL the marketing functions, business development, training of real estate agents in financing, training of my loan officers, and making sure over $85 Million in loans got closed. Of which most were purchases. So I have REAL business knowledge and real estate is business vs an agent without that savvy business skills.
3.) I graduated from University of S.C. where my major was media arts. What’s that mean? What you are reading right now is media. Everything you see and hear is media. Everything on a computer is digital media, websites, video, photographs, and audio. I studied video production, photography/lighting courses, audio recording, and more. Even post cards, billboards, news paper are ALL media, print media. (Although it’s an antiquated media). With that knowledge your home will have the most beautiful representation to the prospective buyers, instead of most of what you see out there (poorly lit, poorly framed, bad photos and video that put off buyers).
4.) 95% OF ALL REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS BEGIN WITH THE INTERNET… PERIOD, IT IS FACT. I am a digital internet marketing expert. I consult other businesses on how to harness the internet’s power through web design, SEO (search engine optimization), content marketing, image marketing, user experience design, online ad management and more.
When listing a home for sale there isn't an exact science to it, but what is required is knowing all the facts, and that's where I come in. What's a home valuation really anyway?
Estimating the value of real property is important to a variety reasons, but for most people, determining the asking or purchase price of a property is the most useful application of real estate valuation. This article will provide an introduction to the basic concepts and methods of real estate valuation, particularly as it pertains to real estate sales.
That's all well and good, however what most home owners in Charleston SC and the U.S. really want to know is what's my property worth now if I were to try to sell it? The most common method  that 90% of listing agent use is:Â
The Sales Comparison Approach.
Value -
A main consideration in appraising is to determine a property’s value: the present worth of future benefitsarising from the ownership of real property. Unlike many consumer goods such as oil, lumber, food, etc. that are quickly used, the benefits of real property are generally realized over a long period of time. Therefore, an estimate of a property’s value must take into consideration economic and social factors, as well as governmental controls or regulations and environmental conditions that may influence the four elements of value:
- Demand – the desire or need for ownership supported by the financial means to satisfy the desire;
- Utility – the ability to satisfy future owners’ desires and needs;
- Scarcity – the finite supply of competing properties
- Transfer-ability – the ease with which ownership rights are transferred.
– What have the homes that are MOST comparable to yours (subject property) sold for recently per sq ft., and  what is currently for sale (taking into account scarcity from above)?
– What are the prices being asked by your competing listings in and around your neighborhood.
Other Factors inside the two primary ones above include: (age of home, physical features, location, conditions of the sale, economic conditions)
