Columbia, SC 
The Ashley Furniture HomeStore at 108 Harbison Blvd. in Columbia has reopened. After closing late last year the new owners, Jonathan Ishee and Charlie Malouf, are optimistic about this location.
Ishee and Malouf have been successful with their 9 other Ashley Furniture stores in North and South Carolina. I wish them well with this location. There have been too many retailers close up shop recently and it is good to see a high profile business move back into the area.

How Can I Help You Today?
Assisting sellers of residential properties and buyers of new and existing homes. I enjoy the detailed behind-the-scenes work that is required for every successful closing.
Recent testimonial from one of my clients:
"I recently had the pleasure of working with Terry Edwards as my real estate agent. I moved to the western United States and needed an agent that I could trust to represent me during all phases of selling my home in Columbia. When Terry showed up with paperwork pertinent to my home, comparables, and camera in hand, I knew that I had found the professional I needed! He efficiently went through the home measuring and taking pictures. He had all forms ready for my signature, and the next day I was on the plane home, confident that Terry would take care of everything. He found the people necessary to prep and maintain the home during the listing, and he kept me updated on everything. If I had any questions, he would promptly return phone calls or emails. Once a buyer was found, I even gave him the power of attorney to sign all paperwork to close the sale. As with the sale of any home, when little problems arose he quickly responded with help. Terry handled everything with my total satisfaction, and I would recommend him to anyone desiring a competent agent that is capable of taking care of the entire home selling process."
