Founded in 2016, South Key Management Co. was created with southern hospitality in mind. Whether we are welcoming our guests to a vacation stay or helping you see the value in your property's charm we are delighted to serve you.
The story of South Key begins with founder Chase Stahl, a native Virginian who was eager to put his Tourism and Hospitality talent and experience to the test in the city. Fresh out of college, he joined a boutique hotel in Old Town Alexandria, VA where he met and befriended his current business partner, Brandon Brown. Eventually, Chase ended up quitting his 9-5 job to follow his parents' house flipping adventure where he familiarized himself with Savannah’s real estate market. It wasn’t long before the young entrepreneur convinced his parents to convert their newly renovated flip, minutes from Forsyth Park, and turn it into the first South Key vacation rental property. With perseverance and his can-do attitude, Chase took care of his first set of property management clients, his parents.
Years into his property management career and as fate may have it, Brandon and Chase reunited once again in Savannah and continued their journey to become the dynamic duo of southern hospitality.
Creating a name for South Key and bringing in the best in the industry to keep up with the competitive vacation rental market, the team has flourished to become nominated as one of the Best of Savannah’s. Today, South Key provides services to over 50 properties as Savannah's premium vacation rental company of choice in Historic Downtown Savannah.
