William Means to Provide Sales and Marketing Services for Tides Condominiums on Charleston Harbor

Carolina Eastport, LLC, the developer of Tides Condominiums on Charleston Harbor, announced that Tides has engaged William Means Real Estate to market and sell the remaining condominiums in the development. Fully complete in late 2008, this collection of 1,2, 3, 4 and 5-bedroom units will be the last opportunity to purchase a new unit at Tides, Charleston’s most luxurious waterfront condominium project. Prices range from the $500,000’s to $3.4 million.

By moving the sales and marketing efforts to William Means Real Estate, Tides will be positioned to take advantage of a full-service marketing and support staff and the knowledge and experience of a firm dating to 1933. Brian Miner, Vice President of Carolina Eastport, remarked, “We have chosen to take advantage of the combination of William Means’ local market expertise and their worldwide reach through Christie’s Great Estates. William Means is unique in that they have this long history in the community, yet they continue to grow and change with the market.”

William Means agent Charles Swanson was part of the original team representing Tides, and will now serve as the exclusive listing agent for all remaining new units. “This is a tremendous opportunity for William Means Real Estate to showcase and sell one of the finest condominium communities in the Southeast. The combination of dramatic marsh and harbor views, quality construction, low homeowners fees and unmatched amenities makes Tides one of the most unique properties in Charleston,” said Swanson. “Being right in the middle of everything – literally minutes from the beaches, hospitals, and historic Charleston – is perhaps our best selling feature. The recent addition of Mount Pleasant Waterfront Park has renewed interest in the area surrounding Tides and has reminded people how exceptional this location is. We’ve had a steady stream of interested buyers and look forward to continuing the momentum.”

Tides Condominiums on Charleston Harbor is a luxury, waterfront 120-unit condominium project at the foot of the Ravenel Bridge in Mount Pleasant. The project started in the summer of 2005 and consists of three 6-story buildings, a 2,500 sf. amenity center complete with gym, community room with wet bar, business center, steam and cedar saunas, therapeutic whirlpool and on-site masseuse and esthetician. The pool area has a cabana with summer kitchen, outdoor Jacuzzi, fire pit and beach feature. Also included is a walking trail around the perimeter of the property that leads to the new Mount Pleasant Waterfront Park. Other conveniences are the full time concierge, maintenance staff and the close proximity to Patriots Point Marina and Downtown Charleston.
