After Hurricane Florence here on the NC Coast, my former (rental) home had to be gutted and the prospects of finding a new home (or even storage for my belongings, because of the unique circumstances of the hurricane devastation) were dismal, according to other agents. Nevertheless (this is a true story !), one call to Margaret Hitchcock allowed me (through her efforts) to purchase a new home within a matter of hours of its listing and her follow up services were amazing (she handled everything incredibly efficiently and with minimal cost for me). Within 30 days I was relocated in my new home (delighted with it) and ... well, what else can I say ... truly amazing. I really can't say any more than that. Highly recommended is putting it lightly !

Stay away from doing business with this rental agency. I lived in a rental through T&C for three…read moreyears and found a few things odd during my time there. It wasn't until after moving out that I realized most of these reviews are accurate. They are quick to get things fixed..but they do NOT perform annual inspections even though they claim they do them. I had 1 inspection in the 3 years living there. The problems began once I moved out. They have very costly move-out requirements that will break the bank when you have little notice to move. Even if you meet these requirements, they will find a way to charge you for something. They claim to do inspections, but were trying to charge me for damages caused by the tenant before me. Luckily, I had noted it on my move in inspection and had photos to prove that the damage wasn't caused by me. I'm still convinced they collected that through the bogus "cleaning" fees they took from my deposit. Oh and good luck getting your deposit back if you somehow do. I gave my forwarding address to two different associates and still had to call back after 30+ days to find out they sent it to the wrong address. Very disappointed and would not recommend doing business here

The overall feedback was to go to First Carolina, Realtors; which thankfully we listened. From start to finish we had an amazing experience. The team of Realtors we spoke with were extremely knowledgeable and helped answer any questions, even the ones they didn't know, they referred us to someone who could get them answered. The vendors they referred us to were ones that looked out for our best interest and were knowledgeable as well. All in all, our first experience of buying a home was a great one, all thanks to the team of Realtors at First Carolina. When it comes time to sell, they will be out first call!

PLEASE READ TEXT EXCHANGE CLOSELY. THIS IS HOW REMI DOES BUSINESS!!!!!…read more I previously posted about how dishonest Amanda and Shannon are. The following is an on-going text thread I have had with Amanda. Amanda came to my home this week for a home visit. When she came to my door, she told me she was videoing me in case she felt threatened and that her and Shannon had discussed this ahead of time. Huh? I too have this on video, you will hear no rebuttal from Amanda or Remi because this is true. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE READ THE ATTACHED TEXT MESSAGE THREAD. AMANDA CAME TO MY DOOR AND TOLD ME SHE FELT THREATENED BASED ON WHAT WAS IN THE THREAD. THIS LADY CAME TO MY DOOR AND SAID SHE FELT THREATENED. THIS IS THE MOST CONNIVING, IMMORAL AND DISGUSTING ENCOUNTER I HAVE EVER HAD WITH A LANDLORD. PLEASE SHARE A little front story, the front and back steps to the home I live in owned by Coast Guard Master Chief Petty Officer Christopher Cole are unsafe and have been so for years, dating back to the prior tenants. All of the pictures Amanda has taken during her home visits will prove me right, so there will be no rebuttal from Amanda or Remi. Everything about the house is junk and embarrassing for what we pay. Again, don't expect any picture rebuttals. Amanda has said at the last 3 home visits, which take place bi-annually that stair/ railing repairs would be made. That is what led up to my offer to repair in the text exchanges. As of today, the repairs still have not been done. Amanda and Remi have decided that they are going to twist this and make me the bad guy for wanting safe steps. There have been 2 falls now, but no one has gotten hurt yet. I FULLY EXPECT REMI TO RETALIATE AGAINST MY FAMILY AND I. WE'VE TAKEN PICTURES ALL ALONG THE WAY AND HAVE DONE NOTHING WRONG. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT. The following is the exact conversation between myself and Amanda/ Remi, I went back to November 14th, but please note that AMANDA SAYS "As per your text on March 17, 2023 at 11:28 am" WHEN EXPLAINING WHY I AM A THREAT. If anyone can explain to me how this lie makes any sense, I am all ears. Amanda should be fired. PLEASE READ: I KNOW YOU WILL READ THIS AMANDA. HOW WAS I A THREAT TO YOU? I HAVE A WIFE AND A BABY. WHY WOULD YOU MANIPULATE THIS AGAINST ME. THIS IS OUR HOME. Oct 12, 2022 3:26:32 PM Me: No worries. You're plumber is great and on it. No issue there or with yall. Worried about if this could go into tomorrow, that's all. Of all days to need water, today's the one. We are sorry for late payments. We've maxed out my income to keep Rebekah home a little longer with the baby. It'll be back to normal soon Oct 12, 2022 3:29 PM Amanda: Not a problem, we completely understand life with a newborn. Hopefully the day gets better for you all. Thanks for the note about the rent payments, I will reassure the owner. Oct 12, 2022 3:32:09 PM Me: I have a number of folks I work with that would have my back last minute to pay if needed. Just never had to and don't want to. Will have it to you very soon Oct 12, 2022 3:38:10 PM Amanda: Totally understand. Thank you! Nov 14, 2022 1:48:26 PM Me: Got our email stating if we are late again we are evicted. Fair enough. When is the homeowner going to repair all the broken stuff? We've taken time for like 4 or 5 visits for estimates. Where is your promptness? Nov 14, 2022 2:28:39 PM Amanda: Are you inquiring about the back garage door and overhead garage door? Nov 14, 2022 2:34:57 PM Me: Yes, the work that needs done here. I explained our financial situation and you were receptive and understood. I got you the payment sooner than I said I would and we get a notice saying we will be evicted if late again. Fair enough, I understand someone wanting there money on time. No issue there. It certainly brings to mind other things that should be done on time. Nov 14, 2022 2:56:06 PM Amanda: I will check on the doors and get back to you. I wasn't aware of any letter sent to you until you brought it to my attention. Apparently, it was a request from the owner. Nov 14, 2022 3:17:28 PM Me: Again, fair enough. With that, We can't lock the garage door. It is broken. Not a door in this house keeps out mice or bugs. Need a new vent fan in master bath. Garage outlets keep shorting out. The painted kitchen counters are peeling off, the fronts glass door has a busted spring, the mailbox is rotten and falling off, the front fence is entirely rotten, although I retailed it to keep it together, the screen on the back porch still has holes and is hanging out, one back door has a completely rotten sill, the other is rusting through, the knob to the back porch failed and was stuck closed,- I cut it out and replaced it with a brand new knob, the carpet is like a bad joke and has stunk since day 1 and I could keep going. You know as well as us that this house needs alot of work. Please let Chris know we'd like him to also uphold his side of our agree

I DO NOT SMOKE! The soot that they are referring to was from a prior tenant that heavily smoked in the home and was not taken care of prior to me moving in! It seems to me that this company decided to rent for another year so they could tag their repair costs on the unlucky tenant that happened to need somewhere to live. I wish I had taken photos prior to moving in. DO NOT RENT FROM REAL ESTATE MANAGEMENT!!!! Update 2: I searched to try and find photos of the home prior to my move in to show proof that it was dirty prior, but of course they made sure they were all plenty blurred so no one could see the details!
