Kiawah River Welcomes Jeff Leonard as Broker-in-Charge

We are pleased to announce that Jeff Leonard has joined Kiawah River as our new Broker-in-Charge. In this role, he will lead the sales team as the community continues its intentional growth along the river. Jeff succeeds longtime Broker-in-Charge Chris Drury, who will remain an integral member as a Kiawah River Sales Executive.

Originally from the Carolina coast, Jeff has spent more than 35 years helping people discover exceptional waterfront communities and the lifestyles that come with them. An avid boater, he and his wife Sandy share a deep appreciation for the rivers, waterways, and natural beauty that make Lowcountry living so special.

Before joining Kiawah River, Jeff served as President and Broker-in-Charge of Daniel Island Real Estate, where he played a leadership role in guiding one of the Southeast’s most celebrated master-planned communities through its final phases of development. Prior to Daniel Island, he spent 16 years as Director of Sales at Bald Head Island Real Estate, another nationally recognized coastal community.

Those experiences shaped Jeff’s belief that people aren’t simply searching for a home—they’re searching for a lifestyle. His approach is centered on helping buyers understand what it feels like to become part of a community and envision how they will spend their days there.

That perspective makes Kiawah River a natural fit. Whether introducing buyers to life on the water, the extensive trail network, or the connections formed among neighbors, Jeff enjoys helping families discover not just where they want to live, but how they want to live.
