What clients are saying
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:

Chuck's passion for the area and his deep knowledge of the market immediately gave me the confidence of knowing that I was working with a true professional. He was representing both the seller and myself, which could be a tricky situation if handled by a less skilled agent. His integrity was evident throughout the transaction, as was that of his dedicated and hardworking assistant, Riva Smith. Every concern I had was met with answers in a timely fashion, and they made this a seamless and enjoyable experience. It worked out so well, that I am under contract with their help on my second purchase!
Sue Duffy, Atlanta, GA

After having our home listed for a year with another agency, we decided it was time for a change and engaged Chuck. Chuck and his assistant Riva were a dream to work with! Their process is highly professional. They brought in a photographer that created a top-notch virtual tour of our home and an extensive gallery of still photos. Chuck also met with us to walk through our home in detail to identify minor maintenance issues that might impact potential buyers’ interest. Within a day of listing, the showing requests started rolling in. Within 3 weeks, we’d had more showings than in the previous year and two excellent offers on our home. At every step of the way, Chuck and Riva made sure to communicate all relevant details and feedback regarding showings and were always respectful of our time and privacy. They use the DotLoop document sharing and signing platform, so the process of documenting the sale and all the accompanying disclosures and collecting signatures was a breeze! On a personal note, we simply enjoyed getting to know Chuck and Riva. They are genuine, upbeat people we now consider friends!

Chuck and Riva were excellent to deal with. Very responsive and knowledgeable about everything. I would highly recommend Chuck for your home buying expertise. Riva is an angel who helped me throughout the whole process as well.
Joshua & Taylor Harris, Santa Rosa Beach, FL

Chuck is not only a great realtor but a wonderful person as well. Initially, I was interested in a new construction project, but ultimately, Chuck found a condo that is a much better fit. Chuck’s professionalism, integrity, and work ethic are unmatched in my opinion.
Jinny Doolittle, Palm Beach Gardens, FL

Chuck did an amazing job for us. He understands the market very well and gave us excellent insight into the market on our two properties, did an excellent job on marketing the properties. The photography and brochures are world class, far beyond expectations. He has a great sense on negotiating and where the buyers may be in the process and recommending next steps. The office at Silver Creek is excellent at follow up and helping with details (touch up landscaping). Chuck sold two properties for us in a very short time span and we couldn't have been happier with the process from start to finish. I highly recommend Silver Creek and Chuck Self for your real estate needs.

Chuck helped us find a lot that suited our needs perfectly, and he was extremely helpful in successfully negotiating rather complicated building restrictions. We recommend him highly.
Cala Colbert

Chuck is the best! Chuck marketed some land for us in a difficult market. He is responsive, creative, diligent and energetic. Once we got an offer, Chuck had great advice on price strategy and managing the process. We would always turn to Chuck for mountain property and recommend him to prospective buyers and sellers.
Carey & Bill - Atlanta, GA

Chuck recently listed and sold our land & guest house on Lake Glenville. Chuck treated this project with the same effort and enthusiasm as he would a project 5 times greater in size. All the listing details where handled with great care by Chuck and his support team at Silver Creek. The marketing materials were well done and Chuck worked hard to get the word out. When an offer materialized, Chuck stayed on top of every little detail to make sure the process for the buyer went smoothly and the open issues were all resolved quickly. I highly recommend Chuck and his team not only for their deep knowledge of the area, but also their process and professionalism in getting the job done.
Jack and Ellen, Atlanta GA

When we decided to sell our lakeside home in the mountains, we originally listed it with the agent who had helped us find the home to buy. After 15 months and not much traffic, we decided to change realtors and list the property with Chuck and Silver Creek. We had heard so many good things in the Cashiers area about Chuck from friends and neighbors, and they certainly were correct in their recommendation. Chuck is a gentleman and a professional, and he and his marketing team at Silver Creek did an outstanding job of pricing and marketing our home in a very competitive area. He thought of everything - and sold our home in just over 3 months! Photography, online marketing, advertising - they did it all in a very unique and professional manner and, we couldn't have had a more pleasant experience than working with Chuck. We'd recommend him to anyone!
Sue and Ed Morgan - Hilton Head, SC

Chuck did an amazing job for us in assisting our purchase of 18 Chinquapin Ct. He is responsive, knows the market and the area, and is just a good guy. His list of service providers proved invaluable. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home.
