Topsail Island Vacation Rentals | Property Manager | Ward Realty

Why Hire a Property Manager?

A property manager is a full-time business that operates on the behalf of a property owner. In North Carolina, vacation property managers are also governed by the North Carolina Real Estate Commission and the NC General Assembly with the North Carolina Vacation Rental Act. The saying among our colleagues is that if you can run a vacation rental management business in North Carolina, you can run one anywhere in the world. We are experienced and professional property managers right here on Topsail Island. We know this market backwards and forwards, and here are just some of the things that a successful property manager can do:

Finding Tenants

Pricing Model

Ward Realty can help you price your vacation rental home correctly. Correctly is the most appropriate word because price, in many ways, is everything. Pricing a home too high can mean unoccupied weeks. At Ward Realty, we like to offer fair pricing for all involved, because we understand that more weeks rented at a fair price equates to a better annual revenue stream for the homeowner.

Bottom Line

A fair rate + high occupancy equals the gross income of a vacation rental. Have you thought about your bottom line though? There are expenses associated with renting homes at the beach. Maintenance, cleaning, quality furnishings, modern amenities all contribute to your gross income, but they can also greatly effect your bottom line. Ward Realty's years of experience and approach to saving the homeowner money can help you achieve the best bottom line on Topsail Island.

Day to Day Activities

A property manager collects rents, handles check-ins and check-outs, performs post-occupancy cleanings, performs and schedules light maintenance issues, handles emergency situations and does all of these tasks on a week-in week-out basis. We have our operations down to a science and we handle volume and transitions extremely well.

Local Influence

Property Managers who have an extensive inventory can help remedy any situation. Ward Realty focuses on getting any problems taken care of in a matter of hours and days as opposed to weeks and months.
