We are so happy that we found Chris Matthews and the Don Callahan Real Estate Group!! We were a bit nervous relocating from Nashville to Savannah, especially given the fact that we didn't know anyone in Savannah and knew we would be relying heavily on our realtor for many things (nice areas, good schools, mortgage lenders to use, etc.). Luckily for us, we found Chris Matthews! He was a blessing in disguise and guided us every step of the way. Many times we were only able to get down on a quick weekend trip on short notice to look at houses, and Chris would have everything ready to go for us. There were even times Chris would walk through a home on FaceTime just so we could see the house "in person". I can't speak highly enough about Chris, or the Don Callahan Team. Throughout the entire process, they went above and beyond. When our home sold in Nashville, we were already living in Savannah, so Chris arranged for us to use the Callahan office to sign the final closing paperwork and even sat with us in case we had any questions. Chris wasn't getting paid to help with that, he was just going out of his way to make us feel comfortable, and to us, that spoke volumes. I think all real estate agents can learn A LOT from Chris Matthews and the Don Callahan Team. From prompt returns on texts, phone calls and emails, to getting us in to see a house quickly, it was definitely some of the best customer service we have ever experienced. Thank you, Chris and Team Callahan, for being so fantastic!! read more

Gia came highly recommended from a friend. Making a quick decision to sell our home and buy a new home in Savannah we felt a bit overwhelmed. Gia was amazing from start to finish. She provided plenty of guidance and support without ever making us feel pressured or pushing us in one direction or another. From our very first meeting, Gia told us what to expect giving us an overview of the whole process, her role, the role of everybody on the team (EVERYONE at Team Callahan is AMAZING) and what we would need to do throughout the process. During our search, Gia was always flexible and available for home viewings. Through the process we were excited and anxious.. we texted her often and at random times and she always responded kindly, patiently, and helpfully. Gia provided guidance to us from which neighborhoods to focus with honest feedback. Gia was there for home inspection and final walk through on the day of closing and was genuinely as excited as we were. In the end, the whole process felt much more effortless than I had expected, and we are very happy with our new home. If you want a funny, genuine, empathetic, and helpful realtor, Gia is absolutely who you want to work with. . I am so happy our friend recommended her and we are beyond lucky to have worked with the BEST in Savannah. I can not recommend her enough! read more

Working with Gia was an absolute delight! We live in Utah and wanted to buy a second home in Savannah to use as a vacation rental and as a place for us to stay when we visit. I reached out to Team Callahan after reading lots of positive reviews online and was connected with Gia. We immediately began communicating over email. Shopping for and buying a home from out of state can be a daunting process and we weren't sure what to expect. Gia expertly guided us through the entire experience. We visited Savannah once in person during this time to look at some houses, but the majority of the process was done remotely. Gia toured houses for us while video chatting so we could feel like we were there. When we got scared or a little freaked out about something, she calmly talked us off the ledge. She really knows her stuff and went out of her way to make us feel comfortable. When we went to Savannah to close on our new house we had the pleasure of spending a little time with Gia and meeting several other members of Team Callahan. What a great team of people! I truly respect and admire their company philosophy of giving back to the community. I can't say enough positive things! I really hope we get the opportunity to work with Gia and Team Callahan in the future. I recommend them 100%! read more

Don Callahan is a wizard !!! He digs under rocks to find fabulous investemnt properties and is a more fierce in negotiator than I'd ever dare be . For his Sales clients he is meticulous in staging the home for the buyers perspective He basically "assumes " the perspective a potential "buyer " and see what would attract as well as what would deter a buyer . His judgement is spot on . He and his team are dedicated to what they do . They are relentless . !!! He and his group kept me fully informed and basically TAUGHT me "the business from the ground up!! Being new and feeling quite timid Don Callahan encouraged me and my properties have grown in value exponentially since the days we began working together in the depth of the real estate malaise of 2009 and 2010 . He turned a cautious idea into a thriving real estate entity based in Savannah Ga ,and in doing secured my future . Working with Don with his decision making wisdom and vision was the single most important financial decision I've made in my entire professional life !! As I've told him He is a WIZARD of Real Estate Kevin McGinn Cold Comfort Homes LLC read more

Working with Team Callahan and Gia in particular was a fantastic experience! Gia is an absolutely amazing person who is exceptionally good at her job! She helped my wife and I purchase a 2nd home in downtown Savannah this fall. She is an excellent communicator and a great listener. She is so good at understanding and reading people, and makes sure that you understand each other 100%. You simply can't have a misunderstanding, as she is so very good at communicating as well as understanding what you are saying. She knew exactly what we were looking for, what we would or wouldn't like and was completely on point. She was very respectful of our time and budget. She was very upfront and honest in everything, never trying to talk us into or out of anything if it wasn't the right fit. I appreciated very much her honest feedback and her helpfulness when looking at areas of town that we weren't familiar with. I truly feel that she worked very hard to keep my best interest in mind at all times. She went above and beyond in responding to our needs and wants. I can't recommend her or Don Callahan's group enough. read more

Russ Strazzella in Savannah GA was great. We did what your not supposed to do, we fell in love with a house. But we already owned a condo. Russ was the guy that made it all work out. He helped us get our dream house. He worked with the sellers agent to negotiate a deal that worked for us. There were some bumps in the road that Russ expertly navigated us through. Sometimes we felt he must be going to law school, he wasn't but his expertise with the contracts made us feel confident. We got what we wanted because of Russ. Don Callahan helped us sell our condo quickly. We asked Russ for recommendations for a realtor in CA to sell an inherited home and he picked a great Keller Williams realtor that is now getting us more $ than we thought possible. It was Russ, and Keller Williams that gives the confidence and professional advice we need to handle scary real estate decisions. If you need a dedicated professional, call Russ. read more

I'm so happy and relieved we picked such a good team to help us find our new home. Our realtors Berry and Russ are phenomenal. Kindness, knowledge, and speedy replies are just a few things I love about this pair. They were always so easy to reach throughout the day as our questions came up. We had a lot of specific NEEDS for this home, and Berry and Russ delivered with flying colors! Another really appreciated perk from them was they know everyone and have a plethora of contacts they can refer you to. As a fairly new resident of Savannah, GA this was a huge help when deciding who to call for help. Berry had great strategies for our search and how to narrow down. Russ was always on top of the paperwork and Jesse, the closing coordinator made sure we kept on track for deadline. I mean this team couldn't run more efficiently. I happily recommend this team, especially Berry & Russ. You will not be disappointed read more

DeAnna is amazing! I sent out some inquiries on Trulia and she was the only agent who replied. In no time flat she was educating me on the home buying process and we were visiting houses. We immediately found the perfect house; thanks to her I am buying it just four weeks after we met. I am not only new to home buying but to Savannah as well, but that was never an issue - she knows what she is doing and I knew I was in good hands. She is really kind, great at what she does, and very responsive. She took care of everything every step of the way. I had no idea that buying a house could be so easy. She is a spectacular real estate agent and I can't recommend her more highly! I also really enjoyed working with Jesse Edwards who is very helpful with the home buying process and very helpful in general. As someone new to this process I was so glad to work with such a wonderful team. I highly recommend them! read more

We had a wonderful selling experience with Team Callahan at Keller Williams Realty in Savannah, GA! We went through the entire selling process of our home in Port Wentworth, GA while we resided in the state of Missouri. Our point of contact we mainly dealt with was Gia Wilson and she was amazing! She was extremely responsive, kind, and knowledgeable. She guided us through the entire process from figuring out when and at what price to list the home for the best results, to finding people we could connect with for repairs and clean-up, and throughout the sale with understanding the offers and navigating the closing period. Any questions or issues that came up were communicated quickly with suggested ways to resolve them. We ended up in a multiple offer situation and were very pleased with how easy it was to work with them. We will definitely call them again for any real estate transactions in the area! read more

My husband and I were looking to sell our rental property and interviewed several different realtors. We live 900 miles away and needed to find someone we could trust who could handle a tricky situation. Gia Wilson was kind and confident when we spoke to her on the phone and we knew she would be perfect for the job. We loved her competitive nature and her willingness to go above and beyond for us. She was our eyes and ears and made the selling process so smooth! We ran into a few snags along the way (due to our complicated situation) that Gia handled for us beautifully. When all was said and done, our place went for well over asking price and sold very quickly and with minimal stress on our end. Gia earned every single penny of her commission. We were thrilled with the level of service that Gia, and the entire Team Callahan team, brought to the table. I highly recommend Gia and Team Callahan! read more

Russ and Berry from Team Callahan made first-time home-buying go smoother than I ever expected. I was searching for a home from Atlanta and wasn't able to view many homes in-person, so Russ and Berry quickly made appointments at every location I asked for, and provided me pictures, video, and their honest opinion of each home. Once I found my home, we were able to submit a strong offer and I was able to go under contract quickly. I really trust their judgment, especially since the guys provided options and expectations of how to proceed every step of the process. Plus, Russ and Berry are incredibly friendly and great to work with, and have always answered my many questions, which I really appreciate. I knew very little about the process and what to expect, and Team Callahan helped me out with everything I needed and provided consistent support. read more

We began our relationship with Don Callahan by watching videos of Ardsley Park but then during a visit to Savannah we went out with Russ Strazzella to tour the area and fell in love with the Isle of Hope. We quickly learned how fast one needs to move to get a desirable house there and Russ helped us all the way. We relied on his astute observations since we lived hundreds of miles away. His quick and responsive FaceTime videos allowed us to make timely and knowledgeable offers. We saw our house online Sunday morning at 8 am and we had our offer in by 10 pm on Monday and it was accepted by 9 am on Tuesday. And he was with us through the offer, closing and beyond. You can thoroughly rely on Russ for friendly, wise, and responsive support if you'd like to move to Savannah. read more

We wish to give a huge thank you to DeAnna and Team Callahan for helping us sell our home in Ardsley Park, Savannah, Georgia. DeAnna truly helped us navigate the selling process. She was always available to answer questions, gave great advice and was very personable and professional. Our experience definitely felt at times like we were on a roller coaster ride, but DeAnna was an excellent listening ear and shared her real estate experience and knowledge to help us better understand what was happening and guided us in making the best decisions regarding the sale of our home. We highly recommend DeAnna to be your Realtor if you are planning on selling your home. You will not be disappointed with your decision. Thank you DeAnna and Team Callahan. The Larsons read more

I contacted Don when I went to sell my 91 year old house and the home I had lived in for 43 years. I knew Team Callahan "sold " our neighborhood. I have never sold a home before and Team Callahan guided us through the process, step by step. Don advised us what we needed to do to get the house ready to go on the market. Once the house was listed, we had a contract in a few days. It was a pleasure working with them from the beginning to the end of the process. One of the things that impressed me the most about Team Callahan is that you get the feeling of "family " with them. They seem to really enjoy their work, each other and they enjoy doing things together as a team. read more

It was a pleasure working with the Don Callahan Real Estate while purchasing our first home in Pooler, GA. The whole TEAM were very professional, informative and always responsive and helpful. They far exceeded our expectations. The transaction was seamless. They recommended I use A Plus Home Inspections (owner, Alex Bates) for my home inspection and Northwest Exterminating (inspector, Wallace Crouch) for my termite inspection/CL100 letter. They were both very good and I would recommend them to anyone needing their services. I would highly recommend The Don Callahan Real Estate Group to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Savannah area. read more

Don and his team just sold our house in Parkside. Highly professional, very reliable, extremely responsive group of people who made our experience of selling our house while away smooth, stressless and successful! Don was key in setting the right price for the market and helped us sort through and negotiate among the multiple offers. Jesse was our go-to person through the process and was so helpful and always available. She closed on our behalf and was very instrumental in arranging our move while we were remote. Nancy and Russ were also involved for open houses, getting the house ready etc... The Don Callahan Group is the way to go read more

An easy 5 stars all the way! We got hooked up with Mark G. through a website and couldn't have been more satisfied. When I see friends struggling through the buying process, I feel so lucky that we had an agent who was really willing to go the extra mile to help us. While we had inevitable "glitches" he smoothly worked us through each one and into the perfect house for us and with the same customer service as if we were buying a mansion when we were just helping our son into his first starter home while in college. Our agent's outstanding communication made it possible to do most of the process long distance even. read more

Team Callahan has to be the very best Realtor in Savannah.  They provided us with Russ Strazella and it is hard to know where to begin when discussing Russ.  I have bought four houses over the course of my life and have worked with numerous, very good people. Russ is head and shoulders above any of them. Smart, honest, fair, patient, resourceful, hardworking nearly to a fault, no pressure, understanding - and did I say smart? Wow! It has been my pleasure living in Savannah, knowing Russ is there, simply as a person. You just can't do any better than Russ and the entire team at Callahan! Keith K. read more

I love Team Callahan! Don, Laura, and Jessie were all so responsive, professional, and also caring. They have advised me on two "life changing" real estate events:. Listing my mother's home after she'd lived there for 57 years and was no longer able to manage it; and guiding me through my own purchase process as I downsized after living in my home for almost 25 years. They recognized that these are difficult and important personal experiences, as well as major financial transactions. Thanks in large part to Team Callahan, these two life experiences were successes. Thank you to Team Callahan! read more
