Originally from New Jersey, Jenna Kooi brings a global perspective and refined attention to detail to Lowcountry luxury real estate. Her journey has taken her across the country—living in California, Arizona, Georgia, Maryland, and Indiana—before ultimately finding her forever home in the Hilton Head and Bluffton area. Prior to real estate, Jenna spent nearly 15 years as a local news anchor in Indianapolis, where she honed exceptional communication skills, poise under pressure, and a deep connection to the communities she served.
The Hilton Head Island and Bluffton real estate market has long been Jenna’s “happy place,” and now calling the Lowcountry home full-time is a dream realized. Over the years, she and her family have experienced the area as both part-time and full-time residents, buying, selling, and renovating homes across a variety of Lowcountry neighborhoods. This firsthand experience gives Jenna rare insight into what distinguishes each community—from lifestyle and amenities to long-term value and resale strategy.
For the past five years, Jenna has been a licensed real estate professional serving Bluffton and Hilton Head Island, facilitating transactions in many of the region’s most prestigious luxury golf and waterfront communities, including Wexford, Colleton River, Berkeley Hall, and Palmetto Bluff. Known for her meticulous attention to detail, Jenna is deeply committed to making each transaction seamless, strategic, and genuinely enjoyable for her clients. Her white-glove approach ensures every step of the buying or selling process feels organized, transparent, and effortless.
As a mother of three, Jenna is well-versed in local schools, family-friendly neighborhoods, and the lifestyle considerations that matter most to relocating families. Golf is also central to her family’s life—her children compete at a high level—and she brings authentic, personal knowledge of many of the Lowcountry’s premier golf communities. Jenna and her family have been members at top-tier clubs including Colleton River, Wexford, and the May River Club at Palmetto Bluff, offering clients insider perspective on club culture and community life.
As a member of The Agency Hilton Head, Jenna combines global brand reach with hyper-local expertise to help clients navigate Bluffton real estate, Hilton Head Island luxury homes, and South Carolina coastal living with confidence and ease.
When she’s not assisting buyers and sellers, Jenna enjoys spending time with her husband, their three children, and their dogs—whether on a morning run, outdoors year-round, or simply enjoying the beauty of Lowcountry living she is proud to share with her clients.
