She found exactly what we were looking for (and didn't try to sell us things out of our price range) as well as recommended and coordinated insurance agents and mortgage companies.

After more than two years of searching up and down the East Coast we finally found our perfect…read morevacation home in the Outer Banks. During the process we found Laurie and her team to be one of the more genuine and complete firms we have had the pleasure of working with. They took the time to understand what we were looking for and kept us up to date on local market changes and updates. Unlike most agencies we have previously worked with, the relationship didn't end at closing....they continue to be there for us if we need anything and are always looking for feedback on our new property. From search to signing and beyond, I highly recommend Coastal Outer Banks Realty.

Once we checked-in, Saturday, June 29 we were informed by the Waves Office of Resort Realty that…read morethe Vacation Home (Dolphin Watch - #7534 - Avon, NC) was unlocked due to the cleaning staff being unable to lock the front door. When we arrived at the house, no one in our party could figure out how to lock the front door; the deadbolt simply would not engage. We promptly called the office on Monday, July 1 and spoke with Jeanine to have maintenance come and check the door. That was not the only issue, as the Pool Lights (the underwater light as well as deck lights) were not working at this time. Jeanine advised that she would put a ticket in for maintenance to look at the front door and the pool company to check the pool lights. Tuesday, July 2 no one had come to address either issue. I called back again, and referenced the time, date, and who I spoke with, however NEITHER ticket was placed. I spoke with Angel and she put the ticket in ... again. Luckily, maintenance did show up later that day as I told Angel it was 3 days now that the house could not be locked. When the maintenance man showed up, he was very helpful and demonstrated how to use the door lock, where you have to lift up the handle to engage the 1st part, then turn the deadbolt. Who would know that? That should that be in the instructions for the house. Obviously, if the cleaning staff cannot lock the door, how would a family from out-of-town know? The pool maintenance showed up at some point on Wednesday, July 3 (4 days into our trip). He was also very friendly. The underwater light in the pool was out, so it needed replaced because it shorted the circuit (there was a taped switch by the pool lights, apparently so not to short the circuit). Basically, the underwater light was not replaced and that switch was taped as a quick-fix. Everything to this point should have been addressed prior to checking in for our week at this $5,600.00 rental home. A list of other smaller issues including, but not limited to: - The main sink faucet in the Kitchen was leaking (maintenance completely replaced the faucet, Friday July 5) - The small island sink in the Kitchen drained slowly (maintenance did not fix) - Filter in the hot tub was changed (maintenance completed with us, Wednesday July 3) - A credit card fee to place the reservation online ($45.00 I believe) - Other realty companies do not charge this. The house needed a more deep-cleaning. From the A/C filters being filthy, to black mold in the shower in the Master Bedroom on the 3rd floor (my partner and I scrubbed out with some leftover bleach; we didn't bother to ask maintenance do deal with it). The last issue arose when the A/C stopped working on the 2nd floor (all family bedrooms) on Thursday, July 4. We only noticed it after maintenance had come on Wednesday and changed our filters (they were dark grey with dust). We called maintenance, left a message on July 4 evening, then again on Friday, July 5 as an after-hours maintenance request. We still did not have A/C on the 2nd floor when we locked the house and left on Saturday Morning. This is a great shame; we have rented through several realty companies through our lives and Sun Realty may be the best, Resort Realty has been the worst. Maybe someone should do an undercover rental through Sun and see all that they are doing right. People come to OBX, oftentimes (such as our situation) splitting the cost of a beachfront home so that everyone can enjoy something special, luxurious, and relaxing. This trip was a constant battle of issues with the home and maintenance that should have be completed prior to a guest's check-in. There are too many realty companies to choose from in OBX and I would highly suggest reconsidering the rental if it happens to be through Resort Realty.

Plenty of room for extended family. A few opportunities exist however: most of the doors are not lockable for the bedrooms, the outdoor shower is only lockable from the outside, the mattresses for both king size beds need to be replaced ( very uncomfortable and a must for the owner), and the pool requires attention with respect to a slow leak that the pool maintenance worker mentioned to us on Monday ( two days after check-in) which is also a must to fix.

After renting the same house for 20 years (and 5 more years at another house) through Sun Realty,…read morethey have booked our house out from underneath us for next year, while we are still here in it on vacation. It has always been a policy that the current renter has first option to book for next year. This policy I believe is pretty standard throughout all rental companies, but Sun Realty! We have been informed that it is now first come first serve and we need to change our weeks. No, we had to change realtors. We're charged a cleaning fee (WHY?), and for what! Every year I need to wash EVERYTHING in the kitchen before we can use anything. Things were so greasy that they almost fell out of your hands. We have a king size matress pad on a queen size bed. At least we had one. Have arrived to no matress pads or wrong size. No shower curtain, vaccuum cleaner that had a broken belt, so you know that nothing was cleaned. Had a toilet that wouldn't flush, and the list goes on and on over the years and nothing has improved. If anything, it's worse!!! If I could rate Sun a -10 I would! They are a terrible company to deal with and they don't care at all about their guests! All they want is the money! NEVER USE THEM AND I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE!!!!

Here is the review of the home. This well loved home was a nice place to have our yearly family vacation. The house is a typical old beach house, 2 bedrooms on one side of the house with a jack and Jill bathroom and 2 identical bedrooms on the other side of the house, again with a jack and Jill bathroom. We did have a late afternoon rain storm with some winds and it blew in the front window. As we tried to put it back in we then noticed a sign saying not to open as it was broken. We had never touched it until it blew in. I managed to get it back on track and lock it shut. The out door shower was new and was spacious, having the best water pressure in the house. The exterior could use a good paint job. The interior could use some freshening up in some of the bedrooms, new comforters would go a long way. Washing the blankets between guests would be a great thing too. Also dusting for cobwebs once in a while would be a nice sign that this house is truly taken care of. A dehumidifier would work wonders in the laundry room and under the kitchen sink.

Cove Realty is the 3rd property management company that I have had in OBX. I signed up with them as…read moretheir fees were low and I was putting my home up for sale. Promises were made before signing the contract that weren't kept. For example, I have a Guest Book in my home. I was told that Guest reviews could be posted on my Cove home website. This never happened in the 6 months that I was with the company even though I pointed out to them twice that they had reneged on an agreement. My home is a luxury home much larger than any that Cove Realty manages. Cove set rental rates too high - I had Iower income than with the previous 2 property management companies. This resulted in receiving a much lower offer price for my home (according to my RE Agent). I had to adjust prices by running a "sale" and reducing the price back to prices 2 years ago. (Cove will tell you that they only "suggest" prices - that the owner has the final say. I agree with this; however, home owners rely on the experience of the property management company to set fees. Cove obviously did not have this experience). In addition, cosmetic work needed to be done on my home at the request of my RE Agent (fence and rusted "nail pops" needed to be painted). Cove took my home (without my permission) off the rental market for January and February so this could be done. I did not notice this until February (?) when the damage was done (lost rent plus Cove did not take into consideration that this outdoor work could not be done during the winter). (Cove will tell you that sections of my home did not have electricity - due most likely to a lighting strike - which happened later in the year, but not in January and February. Cove Realty removed my homes from their rental site for 2 months for cosmetic repair that could not be done during the winter months without my permission or knowledge.) I could go on about the disrespectful behavior of one of the employees (my "property manager"), but I think that I have written enough. My experience is for your consideration if you are currently with Cove or are considering them as your property management company for your OBX home, especially if you have a luxury home. Not only are they not familiar with this market, they will make unilateral decisions that make no sense. They are a property management company that will only give you frustration and headaches plus much lower rental income and an offer price.
