Luxury Real Estate Advisor & Historic Property Specialist

Shawn Kemp is a trusted real estate advisor specializing in Charleston’s luxury homes, historic properties, waterfront estates, and premier Lowcountry communities. With a reputation built on service, integrity, and professionalism, he is committed to delivering a highly personalized experience tailored to the unique goals of each client. 

A veteran of the United States Marine Corps and a firefighter, Shawn brings a disciplined, solutions-oriented approach to real estate. His background in public service instilled a strong sense of responsibility, attention to detail, and unwavering commitment to those he serves—qualities that continue to define his work today. 

As a Historic Property Specialist, Shawn has a particular appreciation for Charleston’s architectural heritage and the stories behind its most distinctive homes. His understanding of the region’s historic and coastal markets, combined with a deep knowledge of the Lowcountry lifestyle, allows him to provide thoughtful guidance to buyers and sellers navigating some of the area’s most sought-after properties. 

Known for his strategic mindset, strong negotiation skills, and calm, client-focused approach, Shawn works diligently to ensure every transaction is handled with care and confidence. He believes real estate is about more than buying and selling property; it is about helping clients find a place that aligns with the life they want to build. 

A devoted family man, Shawn and his wife, Tasha, have been together since high school and are proud parents to their three children, Lucas, Emmalyn, and Logan. Family remains at the center of everything he does and serves as the foundation for the values he brings to both his personal life and professional relationships. 

Whether representing a historic residence in downtown Charleston or a waterfront retreat along the coast, Shawn is dedicated to providing a refined real estate experience rooted in local expertise, trusted counsel, and exceptional service. 

Thank you!
