If you can't find it fun... You can't find it.

Solid beginnings make for solid performance

Rick Turner's passion for excellence started as far back as he can remember

Local Realtor® Rick Turner has special memories of his father as a youth ... and the utmost respect. His dad, Dick Turner, because he was already 33 years old at the start of World War II, could have easily avoided serving military duty, but instead he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, and wound up fighting his way across the Pacific in a series of heroic island invasions.

Setting high standards

"Growing up we knew Dad always expected us kids to do the right thing no matter what the circumstance," remembers Rick. "He also expected us to do our best in every situation. Because his legacy has been burned into my pschye, I can't help but surround myself with a team that embodies that same spirit ... in spades! These are high quality, passionate team members." To this day Rick Turner and his team abide by his father's precepts and example – going the extra mile, doing all the right things for their clients.

"Rick has been a leader in the local Realtor® community since 1972 and has continually set the highest standards when it comes to integrity and service," says Rick's partner Linda Rudd. "We are passionate about giving honest advice so that our clients get the best buy in the best community for their needs and desires."

Expect exceptional service

Rick Turner and Associates raise the bar when it comes to doing the right thing to market listings for their sellers. This includes having this website where listings are promoted internationally and a data base of several thousand prospects interested in buying property in this area. They also mail thousands of personalized postcards each month and advertise heavily throughout this market area. Thus they sell more because they advertise more. Additionally they authored an e-book, Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Private Golf Club Communities, considered the foremost document of its kind in the Hilton Head area.

Indeed, Rick Turner and team do expect a lot from themselves. It therefore goes without question that you can expect a lot as well.

Linda Rudd, Partner

After a period of living in Kansas City, toward the end of the 1980's, Linda Rudd embarked on a journey to find a new lifestyle on the southeast coast. That search both began and culminated on Hilton Head Island. Being raised in the West where sunny days in friendly places abound, the island resounded with an instant appeal for Linda. Her continued "search" turned into a quest of several months duration. Meandering down the coastline through Georgia, and all along both coasts of Florida, she explored one distinctive community after another – each falling short of Hilton Head's magnetic attraction. That was it! Linda has lived in the Hilton Head area ever since, reveling in a way of life so suited to her. She says, "This is where I was meant to live!"

The Hilton Head Lowcountry is home, but Linda treasures her family and loves to travel, literally all around…and out of the country to visit them. "I have three brothers and one daughter, Stephanie," Linda enthusiastically declares. "They are my confidantes, fashion gurus and life consultants," she adds with a smile. The importance of family and traditional values has provided a foundation in her life since childhood.

In her real estate profession, Linda combines her enthusiasm for sharing the "wonders of paradise living" and her enjoyment for helping others. With a background in franchise marketing and sales, Linda started her career in real estate more than ten years ago, and is now a partner with Rick Turner. "I undeniably love what I do in real estate." Says Linda, "It's exhilarating to assist people in fulfilling their dreams as they discover the wonderful possibilities our Lowcountry affords them." She especially likes getting to know her clients and actively listening to and helping them achieve their unique needs and goals. She adds, "It's not only very fulfilling – it's just plain fun!"

Steve Petro, Buyer Specialist

I was born and raised in Connecticut and completed my formal education in the northeast. Hilton Head Island did not become a part of my life until the early 80’s. I had been working on my real estate career in Atlanta and suddenly, all of the stars in the sky lined up and I was transferred to Hilton Head Island! I began working at one of the premier private golf communities in the area. My five (5) children were raised and educated on Hilton Head and my entire family feels as though we are a permanent part of this beautiful area. I’m thrilled to share with my clients my firsthand experiences with our wonderful Hilton Head lifestyle and what has been done to preserve the beauty and legendary history.

I enjoy being with people, helping them get the best property at the best price and becoming long lasting friends!

Bob Glover, Buyer Specialist

I lived most of my life in the Midwest working in real estate ventures from construction to development. My first visit to Hilton Head Island was thirty years ago. In less than 48 hours, I had signed a contract to buy a second family home, which later became my primary home. I love the beautiful landscapes, water vistas and the temperate climate. It’s a wonderful life - living, working and playing in this very special place, with my family. I look forward to assisting you in finding your special place here in the Lowcountry.
