New Property Manager in Charleston – Excited to Connect!

Hey everyone,

I’m Max, and I’m excited to introduce myself as a new property manager here in Charleston! I am from Buffalo, NY and will be moving to Charleston shortly. I would love to hear any suggestions about where I should look to live in the area. While I’m new to the business, I’m eager to learn, grow, and connect with local investors, landlords, and fellow real estate professionals. My goal is to help property owners navigate management challenges while ensuring their investments are well taken care of.

I’d love to hear from experienced investors about what’s working in the Charleston market and share insights as I gain more hands-on experience. If you’re open to chatting, sharing advice, or just networking, I’d love to connect!

Looking forward to being part of this community.

Best,
Max

 Nice!  I started a property management company in 2017 and am now managing almost 800 doors and 6 construction crews.

If I could do it all over again, I would have spent a little more time setting up business systems prior to jumping in.  You will need a software, screening policy, work order request system, etc... 

You can do a lot off of spreadsheets in the beginning, but eventually you need automation.  The overhead to start a company is low, but the cost to scale is high.  Our software cost for all of the above is outrageous.  If you can care a hell of a lot more about your investors returns than the competition you will be fine.  

Good luck!

    Welcome! Charleston (in my biased opinion) is one the best places to live in the country. Im sure you'll love it here. 

    The CHS market is still fairly hot and active, although it has a slowed a little in recent months. Home price appreciation is still trending up, but cashflowing rentals are difficult to find for the most part. The entire region is growing rapidly. 

    The REI community here is very active. There are several meetups and networking events every month. Check out REI Central and the CHS Circle.

    Let me know if I can help with anything. Happy to provide insight or whatever.

     Are you licensed and insured to manager property or are you talking about managing property for yourself?
