Why Rent Your Home With The Highest-Rated Property Manager in Beaufort

How much Could You Profit on Your Rental?
For military families whose mortgage may exceed the home’s value, renting can be a great solution. With rising real estate prices, renting allows you to benefit from market growth. Keep in mind that returns on your property go beyond rent collection:
- Home value appreciation
- Tax deductions for property management fees
- Significant tax breaks for owning rental property
- Tenants paying down your mortgage principal
- Annual rent adjustments to match market trends

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What if I get short-notice orders—can we move quickly?
Yes. We’re experienced with military timelines and can expedite everything from onboarding to marketing. Many homes are listed within 48–72 hours of paperwork completion. -
Can I rent out my primary residence while I’m deployed or PCS’ing??
Absolutely. We specialize in turning primary residences into reliable rental properties. Our team handles all legal, financial, and marketing components to make the transition smooth. -
How will I know my home is being taken care of while I’m gone?
We perform detailed property inspections throughout the year and send you full photo and condition reports. You'll receive regular updates and can reach us anytime—even across time zones. -
What happens if there’s a maintenance emergency and I’m overseas?
No stress—our in-house maintenance team is available 24/7. We handle repairs and emergencies without bothering you unless it’s major. You can trust we’re acting in your best interest. -
Can I still use my VA loan if I rent out the home?
Yes. Many military families purchase with a VA loan and later rent out the property after moving. Be sure to consult your lender for specific requirements based on your loan terms.
-
What if my tenant breaks the lease or stops paying?
We include full eviction assistance in our service. If a tenant defaults, we handle all legal procedures and re-leasing. You’re not left scrambling from afar. -
What happens when I move back to the area?
We’ll coordinate with you to either move the tenant out (with proper notice) or help you sell if plans change. You’ll always have full control and full support. -
Can I still access my property documents and reports if I’m out of state or overseas?
Yes. Our online portal gives you 24/7 access to inspection reports, financials, work orders, and tenant details—no matter where you are in the world. -
I’ve never been a landlord before. Is this risky?
Not when you have the right team. We take care of every detail—marketing, screening, legal paperwork, inspections, maintenance, and tenant communication. You stay in control without the headaches. -
How is rent collected and when will I receive it?
Rent is collected electronically, and we disburse owner payments monthly—on time and with full financial statements. You’ll have a clear record for taxes and personal tracking. -
How do you screen tenants? I don’t want issues while I’m away.
Our screening is strict and includes credit, background, income, rental history, and pet details. We only place tenants we’d feel comfortable renting to ourselves. -
What if I have a family member nearby—can they help manage it instead?
They can certainly stay informed, but we recommend they don’t carry the burden. With us, your home is professionally managed, protected by legal safeguards, and you avoid awkward family dynamics if something goes wrong. -
Will I have to coordinate anything with the tenant?
No. We handle 100% of tenant communication. From lease questions to maintenance requests, we’re the point of contact so you can focus on your mission, not your rental. -
Is there a minimum contract length with your company?
Our minimum lease term is 12 months, which you will be locked into for the entire term, but if you aren’t happy with our service you can cancel our management agreement anytime with 30 days notice. -
What if I need to sell suddenly?
No problem. We’ll help coordinate the tenant’s move-out and connect you with a trusted real estate agent in our network—many of whom are also military-friendly. -
How soon should I contact you before I PCS?
The sooner, the better—even if you're just exploring options. This gives us time to prepare a rental analysis, timeline, and smooth handoff with zero stress. -
Will my property taxes go up?
No, you can file a military affidavit every year and as long as you don't own another primary residence in South Carolina, your property taxes will remain the same.
