Jon Riordan is a REALTOR® and Historic Property Specialist with Carolina One Real Estate in Charleston, SC, bringing a distinctive background to his work in residential real estate. A graduate of the University of Chicago with a degree in English Literature and a culinary degree from Johnson & Wales, Jon spent much of his professional life as a chef and business owner in the food and beverage industry. Drawn by a long-standing passion for real estate and the dynamic opportunities in Charleston's competitive market, he made the transition to real estate full-time — channeling the same discipline and dedication that defined his culinary career into serving buyers, sellers, and investors across Charleston and the surrounding communities.

He believes that homeownership is achievable for everyone and is devoted to making that a reality by providing step-by-step guidance, empowering clients with knowledge and resources, and working closely with in-house lenders to help them meet their goals. For Jon, the most rewarding moments come from witnessing a client's excitement as they envision their new home and experiencing the joy of handing over the keys at closing.
Jon is proud to be affiliated with Carolina One Real Estate, an environment that has supported the launch and growth of his business through extensive training, proven sales strategies, and specialized programs such as Ninja Training. These resources have sharpened his focus on building meaningful client relationships and setting clear business goals.
