Healthy Homes Charleston
Healthy Homes Charleston is a solo REALTOR® practice run by Brittany Dingler under her supervising brokerage, Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Palmetto (Summerville, SC). Brittany's angle: 10+ years in corporate environmental health and safety (Kent State BS Health Education; Columbia Southern MS Occupational Safety and Health / Environmental Management; multi-year HSE roles at Saipem and ExxonMobil) applied to Charleston-area buyer representation. She positions herself as an educator and hazard-hunter, not an inspector — the buyer's advocate who knows what an off-the-shelf home inspection routinely misses (mold, moisture history, HVAC failure modes, IAQ, structural water damage).
About
Brittany Dingler spent 10+ years in corporate environmental health and safety — worker-hazard roles with Saipem in Louisiana (HSE Advisor, 2014–2015), Assistant Safety Manager then Safety Manager on the ExxonMobil Baton Rouge ABM contract (2015–2019), and CEO of her own consulting firm since 2019 helping contractors get ISNetworld® and Veriforce® approved. She became a licensed REALTOR® in South Carolina and launched Healthy Homes Charleston in January 2024 to bring that same hazard-recognition discipline to residential buyers. Her positioning is intentional and narrow: she is not a mold inspector, HVAC contractor, or building scientist herself. She is a REALTOR® who has been formally trained to read a home for hidden health risks that a standard inspection routinely misses, walk the buyer through what she sees, negotiate concessions or fixes before close, and refer the specialist trades when a deeper investigation is warranted.

Key Features
Healthy Homes Charleston is a one-year-old solo practice (launched January 2024 per LinkedIn) built on Brittany Dingler's 10+ years of environmental health and safety experience. She operates under Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Palmetto — a large Summerville-based brokerage (100+ agents, $268.75M sales volume, 591 transactions per RealTrends Verified). The Healthy Homes Charleston brand is a personal d/b/a — no LLC has been confirmed in SC SoS records (CAPTCHA-gated portal). The site is single-page, well-designed but minimal, with two lead magnets (Free Guide, Checklist), a blog (5 posts, June–July 2026), and a booking-quiz CTA. Her only linked social channel is Instagram (@healthyhomescharleston, 541 followers as of March 2026). LinkedIn is her second channel (500+ connections, 549 followers).

Why Choose Us
Most agents route the health-and-safety question straight into a $300 general home inspection and hope the report catches everything. Brittany's angle is the opposite: she has spent a decade being paid to find hazards other people missed. That instinct is what she offers buyers who don't want to inherit someone else's water problem, HVAC neglect, or invisible mold history when they buy a Charleston home.
Environmental Health & Safety Background
Kent State BS Health Education (2013), Columbia Southern MS Occupational Safety and Health / Environmental Management (2015), plus multi-year HSE roles at Saipem and on the ExxonMobil ABM contract. Real corporate hazard-recognition experience — not a weekend certification.
Health-Focused Buyer Representation
Brittany walks homes for mold indicators, moisture history, HVAC failure modes, IAQ concerns, and structural water damage — the categories that standard home inspections routinely under-report. She then negotiates seller concessions or fixes before close.
Conscious Healthy Home Certified Agent™
Trained under the Conscious Healthy Home Certified Agent program (Christy Hutchison, HBA Profile #62) — a designation for real estate agents who commit to health-first buyer representation.
Educator First, Not Inspector
Brittany is explicit that she is not a mold or HVAC contractor. She is an educated advocate who reads the property, teaches the buyer what to look for, and brings in specialist trades when the situation warrants deeper investigation.
