Short Term Rental Management Companies in Columbia, SC?

All:

Is anyone in the midlands of South Carolina aware of a PM that specializes in AirBnB? Looking to find recommendations on companies that only do STRs. I know these exist in larger markets but not sure if there is one in the Columbia area yet.

    Following! Thanks for asking this @Will Gaston I have seen a couple of national companies like this Evolve group but nothing local.

    @Will Gaston What problem are you hoping to solve with a PM? There are some tools that would allow you to remotely manage yourself for a fraction of the fees.

    @Emir Dukic that's a good question. 

    My hope is to find a STR PM and/or long term operator that has the knowledge and local infrastructure in place to run it. As best as I can tell, STRs are a fairly unique niche and I'd rather have find someone who knows how to run that business.

    @will Gaston, look up. Properties in  olumbia on Airbnb. Some hosts will be property management companies.

    Several friends had luck finding home maintenace/watch companies. In fact, they struggled to find many PM's who were interested. Their STR's were in markets that have high snow birds, which those home watch companies focus on.

    Good luck!
