Welcoming You Home Charleston

About Us

I’m Celeste Shumate, a Charleston native and top-producing Realtor® with SC Sold, where I specialize in the Sea Islands—James Island, Johns Island, and the surrounding Lowcountry communities. As a second-generation real estate professional with nearly 20 years of paralegal experience in real estate law, I bring both legal insight and market expertise to every client relationship.

My business is built on referrals and rooted in concierge-level service: connecting buyers, sellers, and investors not only to the right property, but also to the trusted network of builders, contractors, designers, and mortgage professionals who help make their vision a reality.

I’m deeply involved in the Charleston community, from supporting local businesses to engaging with professional groups like the Home Builders Association and Professional Women Builders. My approach is hands-on, authentic, and collaborative—focused on creating long-term relationships and contributing to the continued growth and success of our region.

When I’m not working with clients, you’ll usually find me exploring Charleston’s coffee shops, keeping up with local events, or out walking my rescue pup, Charlie.
