About Hugh Kimbel

Hugh attended Virginia Tech with the intention of playing baseball; however, his love of a good backup plan almost immediately came into play when his shoulder and overall skill set encouraged him to redirect his energies to academics. He earned his bachelor’s degree in Psychology with minors in English and Business. 

After college, Hugh moved to Charleston, SC. For the next 15 years, he rose through the ranks at the renowned restaurant Halls Chophouse, from busboy to server, to bartender, and finally to the General Manager of the then 28th highest-grossing restaurant in the country.

Hugh found a new career and passion in Real Estate after meeting Andy Bovender and the team in Charlotte, NC.  Hugh’s interest in the real estate industry was inspired from a desire to  renovate homes and his background in the family plumbing business gives him an added eye for details concerning potential upside or potentially overlooked flaws that may exist.

As the growth of the team continued, Hugh willingly volunteered to come back ‘home’ and spearhead the opening of the Lowcountry branch in Charleston. Now Hugh also services the SC coast from Hilton Head up through Myrtle Beach. Taking people through the process of buying a home resonated with  him because of its similarity to the hospitality industry in that he is constantly asking clients for their ideal scenario and then doing whatever it takes to make that a reality.
