Our Exceptional Team

Ricky Eilerman is the owner and associate broker of Coast & Country Real Estate Experts, helping buyers, sellers, investors and relocating families throughout Springfield, Rincon, Guyton, Effingham County, Savannah and Coastal Georgia. He also serves clients in Pooler, Statesboro and communities surrounding Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield. Coast & Country also serves clients in South Carolina. For Ricky, Springfield and Effingham County are more than places on a map—they are home. He lives in Springfield, has children in the local school system and currently serves as Mayor of Springfield. His involvement in the community has given him firsthand knowledge of local neighborhoods, schools, development, infrastructure and the issues that matter to the people who live and invest here. Ricky is also the owner of Blush, a restaurant in downtown Springfield, and personally led the renovation of the historic building that houses Coast & Country Real Estate Experts. As the owner of a short-term vacation rental portfolio, he understands real estate from several perspectives: homeowner, investor, landlord, renovator, business owner and community leader. That practical experience allows him to help clients look beyond a property’s appearance and consider its potential, location, marketability and long-term value. A U.S. Army veteran and former firefighter, Ricky built his career around service, honesty, calm decision-making and clear communication. Since entering real estate in 2016, he has helped clients purchase and sell first homes, acreage and homestead properties, luxury and one-of-a-kind homes, investment properties, short-term rentals and homes connected to military and corporate relocations. Ricky is known for giving honest pricing advice—even when the truth is not the easiest answer—along with hands-on property preparation and aggressive digital marketing. His marketing may include professional photography, drone video, property tours, targeted social media campaigns, online search exposure and placement through both Georgia MLS and the Savannah-area MLS network. Clients work directly with Ricky from the first conversation through closing. Whether you have lived in Effingham County your entire life, are relocating to Coastal Georgia, purchasing your first home, selling a family property or building an investment portfolio, Ricky will meet you where you are, explain your options clearly and help you move forward with confidence. Ricky does not simply sell Springfield and Coastal Georgia—he lives here, invests here, raises his family here and genuinely loves the community he represents.

Real estate is personal, and I believe you should know who is responsible for the details. I am the Broker for both the residential and commercial divisions of Coast & Country Real Estate Experts. Brokerage oversight, contracts, agent direction and professional responsibility flow through me. For my clients, that means you work directly with the person who has the authority and accountability to make decisions, solve problems and keep a transaction moving. I have worked in real estate for more than 17 years, helping people buy and sell homes, land, farms, manufactured homes and rural property across Effingham County and nearby communities. My connection to Springfield goes beyond property. I served six years on the city’s Downtown Development Board and four years on Springfield City Council. I have owned several businesses downtown and recently sold Moncrief Square, the event venue I owned on Laurel Street. I know this community from living, working and serving here—not just from looking at property records. I will tell you what I know, what we need to find out and when it is time to bring in the right inspector, lender, surveyor or other professional. Don’t get nervous until I get nervous—we’ll solve it together. If you are thinking about buying or selling—or you simply have questions—call or text me at (912) 433-7881.
