INTEGRITY
ANDY THOMAS
OWNER SERVICES DIRECTOR
I attended North Myrtle Beach High School and graduated from The Citadel with a bachelor's degree in business administration. I’m honored to give back to this community through participation on boards such as the Horry County Accommodations Tax Committee and Destination North Myrtle Beach. Economic development, as well as the preservation of our natural resources, are vital to the continued success of our area.
As the Director of Homeowner Services, I know that understanding the goals of our vacation rental property owners is key. Personalized service and communication are the backbones of our program.
TRUST
Debbie Hardee
Owner Services | Business Development
I grew up in the small town of Landis, N.C., and after college, I flocked to the coast as soon as I could. That sand stayed in my shoes, and I lived in the Ocean Drive section of North Myrtle beach for over 28 years.
I don’t know about you, but I like to laugh—a lot (and loud). Well, as fate would have it, I met someone who makes me do just that every day. I married a lifelong Horry County gentleman, and over eight years ago, he moved me to the country little town of Loris, where he grew up. We now have our first grandchild; and are already spoiling Gentry Lynn every chance we get.
When I am “off duty” and not spoiling Gentry, I enjoy my girlfriend time as I have been blessed with many wonderful friends. I love a fun 5K. My husband and I enjoy bass fishing and yes, we are HUGE college football fans! (Go, Tigers).
If I can ever be of assistance to you, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I’m familiar with the area and current on the ins and outs of renting your property on a vacation rental program. Referrals also are the best compliment I could ever receive.
Jaqueline Ramsey
Owner Services Representative
I started out at Thomas from a temp agency. I came to truly enjoy the work, so I was pleased to be hired full-time. I’ve had the opportunity to be a department assistant, worked in Owner Services and in Annual Rentals, and eventually became an Owner Representative. I am blessed with a bevy of wonderful coworkers and a lot of learning opportunities. I hope to share all I’ve learned over the years with our owners, so we are all successful.
I love working in Owner Services. The team is a fantastic group of people, and we all work very well together. We are a supportive bunch and work together to support our owners’ goals.
RESULTS
COMMUNICATION
Laura Cartrette
Owner Services Representative
I’m excited to build ongoing relationships with you--our homeowners--and earn your trust. I moved to this department to learn, broaden my knowledge, and experience new challenges. What is great about this career is continually enhancing my people, communication, and problem-solving skills. There is the added benefit of meeting people from all walks of life.
Others would describe me as trustworthy, caring, a good friend, ambitious, reliable, understanding, and warmhearted. My goal is to put these traits to work in providing the best customer service possible while providing peace of mind that your needs are met.
What makes me tick is being a mother to my son, Brayden, 18, and watching him grow as an individual. I’m guided by my father, my role model. He was the bravest, strongest, and most selfless person I’ve ever known.
I’m a beach native—from Little River. My heart remains here as I love boating, going to the beach, watching Gamecock football, and enjoying time with family and friends. Oh, and spending time with my sweet rescue dog, Annie Mae!
Kevin Funderburk
Owner Services/Property Services Coordinator
Being in a company for 34 years gives you a broad perspective on the organization. I’ve had the chance to work in many departments—Guest Services, Accounting, and Maintenance. In 2016, I started working on the support side for Owner Services.
I enjoy jumping in and doing anything that is needed to assist our team and owners—whether it’s a work order dealing with maintenance or going out to do a quick fix on a property; I’m here to make things work as smoothly as possible.
How do I fit into the dynamics of the Owner Service team? I’ll never forget one time I was going to meet a group of people my roommate knew for dinner. I asked him how he described me to them. He said, “I told them you would absolutely overwhelm them!”
The people I work with would probably describe me as loud and outgoing. I haven’t always been like that. Today, others say I can carry on a conversation with a fence post. The truth is, I like to meet people and converse with them.
Over the years, I’ve met some great owners and guests. I’ve made some great friends, too. It’s wonderful to meet people from all over the world. This is a tough business, as are all companies dealing with people. But in my heart, I know we have the best team in the industry by far; we offer the best products at the best price, so we have the best guests and owners. That makes us want to do a great job for them.
My wife, Michele, is the rock of our family—the glue that holds us together. She is a retired music teacher and singer (on the praise team at church). My son, Daniel, 25, is in Spartanburg working with an organization called Campus Outreach at Wofford College. This is his first year on staff and feels this is where he has been led to serve.
PARTNERSHIP
Wade Andrews
Owner Services Representative
I absolutely love the numbers side of the business—analyzing data and looking at competitors and the market to create viable opportunities for property owners to be profitable. My goal is to help owners reach their goals.
Besides being analytically minded, people would describe me as easy going. I’m a good communicator, which helps in my job as an Owner Service Representative. The partnership we have with owners is very important to me and communication is key in that process.
My teammates would most likely say, I’m positive. I strive to make our work environment stress free and easy for co-workers and our customers.
I’m motivated by my family and my son, Ollie, being the provider and wanting to learn and strive to be a positive contributor. The legacy I can leave with my son is to do well in all aspects of life and to make a difference each day—personally and professionally. I want to be the person you can count on.
EXPERIENCE
FRIENDLY
Mary Copeland
Owner Services Representative
I’ve been in almost every department imaginable in vacation rentals—from the front desk of a small vacation rental property to housekeeping, maintenance, golf, and more.
I admit that I am a worry wart, but if my heart is set on something, I’m driven and passionate. This motivation comes directly from my father—a natural salesman and hard-working man. He told me a long time ago if you’re going to work, make sure it’s something you love doing, not something you just go and do.
I was born in Rocky Mount, N.C. My parents had a vacation property in North Myrtle Beach. As soon as I graduated high school, I moved to that property to attend college. Growing up, I didn’t want to live anywhere but here. I still feel that way today! I have two very extraordinary boys, Carter, age 15, and Cam, age 4. Having a son with special needs has molded me into the person I am. Each day, my family lives in the moment, and we are grateful for the moments we have. We especially love the chance to be together and fish and crab at the Cherry Grove Point.
