Best Loan officer
The old saying goes, “neither a borrower nor a lender
be.” But Wes Sellew has never paid attention to that.
He loves lending money to home buyers, according to
our readers. And it’s clearly working out for everyone
involved.

Third – Andy Collier, DHI Mortgage/Lorcan Lucey,
Lucey Mortage (tie)
Best LocaL ceLeBrity
Just like Hollywood, Charleston and Mount Pleasant
have A-listers who walk among us. And of those
A-listers, our readers love Darius Rucker in particular
for his laid-back attitude and undeniable talent. In fact,
those people in Hollywood should take lessons from
him.
Second – Bill Murray
Third – Brooke Ryan/Rob Fowler (tie)
Best naiL saLon
There may be other topics that more women “beg to
differ” about than the virtues of where they get their
nails done, although probably not many. But scores of
online reviewers and Mount Pleasant Magazine’s
readers cut to the chase. East of the Cooper, it’s
Princess Nails and Spa.
Second – Nails So Dep!
Third – Silver Nails & Spa
Best nonprofit
East Cooper Community Outreach – ECCO – has
become such an important symbol of caring in East
Cooper that it’s virtually impossible to imagine living
without it. Each year ECCO serves more than 4,500
families with basic needs, health care and more.
Second – East Cooper Habitat for Humanity
Third – Shem Creek Fisheries
Best pest controL company
Life East of the Cooper could hardly be more perfect,
except for one
thing: the bugs.
In our Southern
paradise we’ve
got termites,
bedbugs,
mosquitoes,
palmetto bugs
and zillions of
“no see ’ums.” That’s where outstanding pest control
companies such as East Coast Pest Control make all
the difference.
Second – Mosquito Joe
Third – Buzz Off
Best pet Groomer
There is no shortage of ways to treat your dog more
