Mike Olson, eXp Realty

The Johns Islander is by Mike Olson, a licensed south carolina real estate agent with eXp Realty, LLC. Mike lives on Johns Island. The guide is the island paper he started on Instagram as @thejohnsislander, built out for buyers.

How this guide is built

Every fee comes from the document that sets it — an association budget, a covenant, a town ordinance, a state statute — with the date we checked it and a confidence tag: confirmed, secondary, conflicting, or not published. Market numbers come from CHS Regional MLS as totals only, never a listing or an address. Flood zones come straight from FEMA’s map service. Every fee here names its source and the date we last checked it. Associations change fees; confirm with the association and your closing attorney before you close.

Spot something out of date? Email mike@mikeolsonre.com and it gets checked and fixed, with the date.

How Mike is paid

If you buy with Mike, he’s paid as your agent through eXp Realty, LLC, the way an agent’s commission works in South Carolina. Mike may introduce you to another licensed agent who works the island you choose. If he does, that agent's brokerage pays a referral fee to eXp Realty, LLC, which pays Mike. It costs you nothing, and you're always free to choose any agent.
