Management Company Recommendation for Pinehurst, NC

[Brendon Weaver]

Hey everybody! Let me just say that I'm a newbie, and I'm still entering the research stage of real estate investing and creating my goals.

Well, I'm a big time golfer. I love golf! And one of my possible goals in real estate is to invest in condos in well-known golf destinations, and to rent them as short-term vacation rentals. One of the areas I am looking at is Pinehurst, NC. So, I'd like to know if any of you invest in this area, who do you use and trust as a Property Management, and what kind of fees I can expect for this area?

Also, do you use your management company for every aspect, including booking the rentals, or are you using sites like VRBO and homeaway to book and just using the management companies for cleaning/maintenance?

Thanks for your help everyone!
