Foundry & Brick Residential Management
At Foundry & Brick Residential Management, we offer everything you need, when you need it. Whether you are ready to apply for a rental home or get your home rented, we are there for you!
Your property is backed by experienced professionals you can trust!
With more than 25 years of combined experience in property management, real estate, construction, and investment consulting, we bring a level of expertise that can only be earned through years of hands-on experience. We understand that your property is more than just an asset, it’s a significant investment. Our mission is to protect that investment, maximize its performance, and provide the peace of mind that comes from knowing experienced professionals are looking after every detail.
We believe great property management requires more than just technology, it requires people who care. By combining industry-leading software, real-time communication tools, online owner and tenant portals, and streamlined reporting systems with a hands-on, relationship-driven approach, we deliver a management experience that is both efficient and highly personal. Technology helps us work smarter, but our commitment to service is what truly sets us apart.
The rental market is constantly changing, and successful property management requires the ability to adapt. We continuously monitor market trends, legislative changes, leasing strategies, and operational best practices to ensure our owners remain competitive and protected. We are committed to learning, improving, and evolving so that our clients always benefit from the most current knowledge and effective solutions available.
We believe that strong relationships are built on honest communication and complete transparency. Our clients deserve clear answers, straightforward advice, and timely updates, not surprises. Whether discussing maintenance, tenant issues, financial reporting, or market conditions, we are committed to keeping you informed every step of the way so you can make confident decisions about your investment.
Every property entrusted to us receives the same level of care, attention, and respect that we would expect for our own homes. From tenant placement and routine inspections to maintenance coordination and long-term planning, we approach every decision with ownership in mind. Protecting your investment is not just part of our job, it is at the heart of everything we do.
One of the most common frustrations property owners experience is not knowing what’s happening with their property or being unable to reach their property manager. We believe communication should never be an afterthought. Our commitment is to remain responsive, accessible, and proactive, ensuring that our owners always have a clear understanding of their property’s performance and any issues that may arise.
Property management is built on trust, and trust is earned through consistent performance, not contracts. While management agreements are necessary to establish responsibilities and expectations, our philosophy is simple: we want owners to stay with us because they value the service we provide, not because they feel obligated to. Every day, we strive to earn that trust through accountability, responsiveness, professionalism, and results.
From marketing and tenant placement to rent collection, maintenance coordination, inspections, and day-to-day operations, we are committed to delivering a level of service that reflects the importance of your investment. Our focus is on minimizing vacancy, attracting qualified tenants, protecting property condition, and maximizing long-term returns while providing a seamless experience for both owners and residents.
Unlike many larger firms focused on rapid growth and maximizing the number of doors under management, our approach is intentionally different. We are a boutique property management company by design. By carefully selecting the properties and owners we partner with, we are able to provide a higher level of service, greater accessibility, and stronger relationships. Every property matters. Every owner matters. Every tenant matters. We believe that when people feel valued, communication improves, problems are solved faster, and everyone benefits.
At Foundry & Brick Residential Management, we understand that every owner, tenant, and referral partner is placing their trust in us. We do not take that responsibility lightly. Our promise is to provide exceptional service, honest communication, and unwavering accountability while treating every property as if it were our own. We are committed to protecting your investment, supporting your goals, and building lasting relationships founded on professionalism, integrity, and trust.
We position your property for maximum exposure through professional marketing across the Multiple Listing Service, leading rental platforms, our company website, targeted social media channels, and on site signage. Our goal is to attract qualified applicants quickly, reduce vacancy time, and secure the strongest possible tenant for your home.
Protecting your investment starts with placing the right resident. Foundry & Brick Residential Management conducts a thorough screening process for all adult applicants, including credit review, criminal background screening, income verification, employment confirmation, rental history, and overall qualification standards. Our goal is to place responsible, qualified tenants you can feel confident about.
Reliable rent collection is a key part of protecting your investment. Foundry & Brick Residential Management handles all rent collection, payment tracking, late notices, and enforcement in accordance with the lease terms. Our systems are designed to provide timely owner distributions, clear accounting, and consistent follow through so you can enjoy dependable income with less stress.
Maintenance issues happen, and prompt response matters. Foundry & Brick Residential Management coordinates routine repairs, vendor scheduling, preventative maintenance, and emergency response to help protect your property and keep residents satisfied. With 24 hour maintenance reporting and clear owner communication, we work quickly to resolve issues while keeping you informed every step of the way.
With our detailed financial reporting tools, it's never been easier to keep tabs on your investment. Log into your owner portal to view statements and stay in tune with how your investment is performing.
While our goal is always to place qualified tenants, maintain strong communication, and resolve issues before they escalate, we understand that situations can occasionally arise that require formal legal action. While no property owner ever wants to face an eviction, you can take comfort in knowing that Foundry & Brick Residential Management will be there to guide and support you every step of the way. Should a tenant delinquency or lease violation progress to the point of eviction, our team can coordinate and manage the process on your behalf as permitted under South Carolina law, including serving required notices, filing court documents, attending hearings, and communicating with all parties involved. Our goal is to protect your investment, minimize delays, and help restore occupancy as efficiently as possible. In the event a matter becomes more complex or requires extensive legal representation, we have established relationships with experienced landlord-tenant attorneys who specialize in South Carolina property law. Through these partnerships, our owners have access to knowledgeable legal guidance and support when needed, ensuring that you are never navigating a difficult situation alone. Heaven forbid an eviction ever becomes necessary, but if it does, you can have confidence knowing that you have an experienced management team and trusted legal resources standing beside you throughout the process.

“Working with Christen was an absolute pleasure. From start to finish, she brought a perfect balance of professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care to the entire process. She was always attentive, responsive, and patient, going above and beyond to ensure a positive experience. Christen's market knowledge gives her the ability to handle every detail with confidence. I highly recommend Christen to anyone looking for a thoughtful, dedicated, and trustworthy real estate professional."
“Christen McConnell! What more can I say about this wonderful woman. She helped my husband and sell our previous home and get into our new build. My husband and I had so many questions because we had never ventured this experience before and Christen was there through every question or concer we have and always promptly reached out to us. Her communication skills are spot on. She is very forthcoming with information, professional, and so knowledgeable in this field. I will definitely be working with her in the future. Whether it be purchasing, building, or even renting out our current home in the future. She's spectacular. There's not enough words to say how wonderful she is to work with.”
“Recently worked with Christen McConnell and was pleased with her level of commitment, communication and professionalism. Christen and her team were great and we're quick to address any concerns and I look forward to working with them again soon! Reach out to Christen today... You won't be disappointed!”
"I'm a local Realtor, and I recently worked with McKenna while helping one of my clients secure a rental. She was fantastic to work with from start to finish. She answered every inquiry quickly (which is rare in this market!) and made the income verification process seamless for my client. The property she managed was the first one we'd seen in a month of searching that was truly move-in ready and clean, which says a lot about the level of care she and her team put into their homes. Because of this experience, I'll absolutely be recommending her property management company to any of my homeowners looking for quality representation. McKenna was prompt, professional, and incredibly helpful. Highly recommend!"
Working with Christen and McKenna has been great! They are very attentive and their attention to detail is spot on! Would highly recommend them for your property management needs and I look forward to working with them again and again!
The staff at Foundry and Brick have been amazing to work with. I brought my property over to them, and was expecting a recording or some type of automated message. Its nice to speak to a human being for once. Not only were they responsive, but I started getting inquiries on my property the day after I signed my agreement with them. I will definitely bring any other properties to them in the future.
Incredible Response time and amazing customer service- if I could have given ten stars I would have. Thank you so much.
You will not regret using these ladies for all your residential/realty needs. So helpful and kind!
