Southern Shores is a 4 . . . Jus' Ducky is a zero!…read more Southern Shores, and in particular, Lori Payne did the best they could to manage and, when possible, mitigate the issues with our rental house. Some issues should have been identified by the cleaning staff before our arrival, however. I do NOT recommend Jus' Ducky (12 Ocean Blvd) as a rental property. This house is not in any condition to be rented. The owner made minor updates to two bathrooms this year, but they have significantly bigger issues with AC, insulation, deck, furniture, etc. from many years of owner neglect and lack of investment/maintenance. Several service members also made unsolicited comments that the house was in poor shape, shouldn't have been rented, thought we might be moved to another house, etc. Chelsea (Southern Shores maintenance), and the teams at R. A. Hoy and KICZ were responsive, polite, and knowledgeable. When we were several hours into a loss of all electricity with no AC and no food (we kept delaying our restaurant reservation to celebrate a 45-year wedding anniversary--eventually we ended up with all restaurants closed and we still weren't any closer to a remedy), one of the guys from Hoy invited us to come to his home to get a bite to eat and a break from the heat--we declined, but appreciated his offer--very kind). The owner refused to take ANY responsibility for the many hours/days of our vacation spent dealing with maintenance, the electric company, HVAC and related issues. Ultimately, Southern Shores stepped up and provided a small financial remedy which we greatly appreciate. Although I will never rent this house again, I will certainly rent from Southern Shores in the future!

This guy did a fantastic job of working with us, helping us articulate what we wanted, as well as what we didn't. His vast knowledge of the OBX area overall, as well as his extensive knowledge of the diverse neighborhoods in both the north and south ends of OBX was invaluable to us. He was always willing to check a property out, prepare a video, and provide detailed information on something we had an interest in pursuing. He provided objective observations about quality details, as well as things that needed work or might have hidden defects. Our house-hunting journey was lengthy (over a year!) and Steve stuck with us the entire time - we were happy to have gotten to know him and would recommend him to anyone looking for a new home.
