No. Mike is a Charleston real estate agent, not a property manager. He introduces owners who want management to Dwell Vacation Rentals, an independent company he doesn't work for, and he isn't employed by them either.
Dwell pays Mike a referral fee when an owner he introduces becomes a Dwell management client. Dwell's published fees vary by bedroom count, and he'll tell you the number plainly if you ask.
Dwell is an independent vacation rental management company and a Casago franchise, rated 4.5 on Google by its own account. Dwell manages properties in Folly Beach, Isle of Palms, Edisto Beach, Kiawah Island and other Charleston County areas.
