Corinne was our Property Manager this past year and she was transparent, punctual, thoughtful, and just simply wonderful. Always thorough in her correspondence and never a doubt that a request of ours would go unanswered, Corinne as on top of it all. She allowed us to feel at ease knowing any issue would be handled effectively and efficiently. We would be delighted to have Corinne as a Property Manager again.

Since 1995, we have trusted Wilkinson PM with our property. Over the years we have had different property managers and each one has provided us with good service. Our current property Manager is Keith Rudisill. In the past few years, he has helped us manage our property from afar when we have had to deal with finding new tenants, repairing damage caused by fallen trees, and other general issues involved in renting out one's property. He has always been responsive when we have had a problem and helpful in finding solutions.

Our Property Manager, Keith Rudisill, was WONDERFUL. Always returned calls and emails within an hour or two at most, even weekends. Was very informative and very good at keeping up with our multiple renters in multiple houses. Keith had a good repour with us as much as he did with our renters. He always took care of vacancies within a few days. GREAT Experience. Highly Recommend.

As an agent I show multiple rentals and work with lots of different agents and property managers. I've had the pleasure of working with 3 here at Wilkinson. Keith Rudisill, Lorraine Deavers and Beate Whitesell have all been responsive and helpful when I've needed assistance with one of their rentals. Thank you!
