Forever Vacation Rentals
Shannon and I moved from St. Louis, MO to Destin, FL in the Summer of 2011. I have over 20+ years in the Property Management field including Vacation Rentals, Multi-Family, and Senior Living. I am also a Realtor with Worth Clark Realy. Shannon is our “go to guy” and always goes above and beyond. He handles the majority of operations which includes Inspecting and Scheduling Turns, Owners Statements, Accounting, and helps to oversee our Housekeeping Department. You will find that we are passionate and very hands on. Not only are we available to our Homeowner's at all times, we are also available to our guest.
God has blessed us with our two children, Riley (18 y/o) and Jax (8 y/o). Our hearts and home are also filled with our fur babies! Jubilee, Goose, Phoebe and Hoss! We support our local animal shelters and rescues. We look forward to our Friday night movies at home with our children, fishing (although we aren't any good at it – haha), church, and of course, Sunday football. We are very family oriented and find that most of our homeowners become like family to us.
In the Spring of 2016, we expanded our business by hiring Debbie. She is my amazing mom! When it came time to hire someone, it only made sense to bring her on board! You honestly can't find a more caring, loyal and trustworthy person! If you ever want to hear a friendly voice and just be uplifted, give her a call!
We can't forget about the rest of our team! EVERY. SINGLE. PERSON. on our team is important to our success. Our goal is to hire folks with passion, enthusiasm and a motivation to win! We want them to know that no detail is too small, and a happy guest is a repeat guest! There is nothing more rewarding than to receive a complement about how genuine and hard working we are! Small gestures go a long way in this business! We love to WOW!
We would be honored to discuss how we can start to increase your revenue & help to keep your expensed down! We are proud to say, we are "small by choice". Discover the Difference with Forever Vacation Rentals
