Read & Read, Inc. REALTORS is part of a Charleston real estate tradition that began more than half a century ago. The company is a diversified, full-service real estate sales and related services organization. The firm engages in the marketing, management, leasing, and development of residential, investment, commercial properties and enterprises throughout Charleston and the South Carolina Lowcountry.

In 1947, Thomas Carpenter Read, Helen Emerson Read, Emerson Bracket Read and Thomas Lee Read founded Read & Read as a real estate and insurance partnership. The company grew rapidly as sales of insurance and Charleston real estate increased in the post-war era. King Street merchants recognized Read & Read as a reputable, local source of insurance, and lawyers and bankers realized the value of the company's Charleston real estate knowledge.

As the Charleston real estate market expanded, the company continued to grow with 35 sales associates and three branches. The commercial real estate and investment division and the commercial property management department saw great success and became integral parts of our real estate business.

The company also enjoyed recognition within the real estate industry and includes among its associates two past presidents of the South Carolina Association of REALTORS ©, three past presidents of the Charleston Trident Board of REALTORS © and several SC state and local committee and board members.

In 1996, Read & Read REALTORS focused company resources on service-oriented real estate sales for sellers and buyers, and development of residential and commercial properties in Charleston, SC.
