I have rented a few homes here in the Charleston area, I will say that Charleston Rental Properties have been a pleasure to work with. They have been extremely responsive with any questions or concerns I may have and their staff is extremely professional and proactive. I would highly recommend renting from CRP.

Charleston Rental Properties was our most recent property manager for our short term rental. We had a wonderful experience with this company. I would highly recommend them for anybody looking to hire a property manager for their rental investment and for anyone looking to rent a Charleston property. They were always prompt when we had an issue, and we always had great communication as well.
