   Ellis Grossman, a Charleston native, started his professional career in the restaurant business. While this was not his original plan, he realized he was passionate about the restaurant business, particularly in obtaining real estate and making a profitable enterprise. 
 
   Ellis attended the Culinary Institute of Charleston at Trident Technical College. After earning his degree in culinary arts and business technology, Ellis chose to take a different approach than most and jumped directly into the fast food industry. He was Director of Operations for Bojangles and later Vice President while also serving as Chairman of the Board at the Culinary Institute of Charleston, where he taught culinary classes.
 
   In 2010, inspired by the need to bring healthy ingredients to the fast food business, Ellis started Black Bean Co. Ellis carried his love of fresh ingredients directly into Black Bean Co.’s overall mission. While operating five restaurants, Ellis was farming 35 acres of land. He sold his harvest to many restaurants in Charleston with the help of Limehouse Produce. Whether ingredients are made fresh daily, compostable packaging, or green decor; Ellis felt it was important to extend his knowledge and experience of what sustainability can be.
 
   After Black Bean Co., Ellis wanted to continue his mission of helping people in a new industry. In 2017, Ellis chose the path of Real Estate with a mission to help members of the community with their current real estate needs, but more importantly, their future real estate investment goals. Ellis seeks to build lifetime relationships and give the highest-rated service to all of his clients, customers, vendors, and the people within the community. He is eager to show you what makes the Charleston Area the number-one city worldwide.

   Bringing over 25 years of combined experience in Real Estate sales, management, and marketing in the Charleston area. My knowledge of the Lowcountry is true and tried as I have lived in Charleston, North Charleston, Hanahan, Mount Pleasant, James Island, and Johns Island over the years. I am also familiar with the many other cities, towns, and communities throughout the Tri-county and state. Although not born and raised in Charleston, I consider myself a Charlestonian after moving to South Carolina from Virginia over 30 years ago. I feel I can offer you local expertise with a bit of southern charm.

   When not immersed in Real Estate activities, I enjoy treasure hunting for vintage toys, 70’s & 80’s records, Beatles memorabilia, visiting our beautiful area beaches, boating on our local waterways, relaxing after a long day at one of the many rooftop venues downtown and spending time with my friends and family. I also enjoy serving and volunteering by giving back to this wonderful community that I call home. I have been blessed and love the opportunity to bless others as I can.

   As a graduate of Charleston Southern University, with a major in marketing, I have applied my skills and knowledge to help my clients negotiate the best price possible and achieve the highest profit. I am hardworking, loyal and dedicated to helping others. My mission is to help you buy your new home or sell your current home to move on to the next chapter in your life. The sense of community, friendly people, culinary, history, arts and culture are the combination that makes Charleston a truly unique and special place to live, work and play. I want to help you to experience all that the Lowcountry has to offer! Looking forward to connecting with you soon!
