About

There are pivotal moments in our lives that often dictate our direction. For Ernest
Govan, one of those was when his Dad told him he didn’t believe he could sell
anything. That brought out his rebellious nature, and paved a path that led him
straight toward sales. Another was when he helped two police officers purchase
a dream home that they didn't think they would qualify for, and it changed their
lives...and his.
Today, Ernest is known for providing a stress-free real estate journey, and
becoming part of every family he helps. As a result, he has earned the mantra,
Your Dream Maker Agent, a brand he displays with great pride. He is an
advocate for young professionals & growing families who are seeking their first or
second dream home. He also assists those who are relocating to the area and
need a seasoned expert on the ground. He specializes in dream home
opportunities in the low country, including new home construction, and is
recognized for his persistence, signature hats, and ability to make dreams come
true. As such, he has been awarded Realtor of Distinction since 2019, and has
earned multiple real estate designations and certifications so he can continue the
honor of being in the top tier of Realtors in the Charleston area.
When Ernest isn’t making dreams come true and fitting into every family just like
the hats he wears, he’s spending time with his wife (Lynn) and their three
children (Melissa, Jonathan, and Whitney). He’s also active in his church, being
both an elder and serving on their board. He still travels often, and enjoys
movies, playing games, and riding his bike. He says his path and purpose was
secured in 1987 when he became baptized, and realized that the world is far
greater than just himself. Now, he realizes that he lives a dream life because he’s
blessed to spend his days helping others achieve their own.
