The company closed or placed pending over $228.9 million in real estate through July 1, 2020, cementing their role as a leader in the Charleston market.
“Despite the challenges we have faced due to the global pandemic, our REALTORS® at The Cassina Group continue to excel in providing first class service to our clients throughout every stage of the transaction,” said Owen Tyler, managing broker and partner of the firm. “Charleston continues to be a top destination for those looking to relocate.
