Client Testimonials

Emily L.Property Owner

When deciding to rent our home in Charleston SC, there were many property management companies to choose from. Our home is our biggest investment and we wanted the process to be handled with the upmost professionalism and concern. Quartermaster Properties has given my husband and I the peace of mind we needed to know that our home is well taken care of. Jason Shamis has personally taken care of every detail in the listing of our home, quickly securing a responsible renter, and has made sure that our tenants are taking impeccable care of our home. We highly recommend Quartermaster Properties!

Elliott R.Property Owner

I rented my home in Charleston, SC in the past with a large local company and had a terrible experience so I was hesitant to rent again. I decide to give renting another chance after speaking with Jason Shamis and I couldn't be happier with my decision and the experience. He was able to follow through on every end of our plan; the timeframe, the price, everything! I highly recommend Jason if you are ever considering renting your property or finding the perfect place to rent for yourself.

Larry H.Property Owner

MaryAnn Morelli has been a blessing for me from the time I initially called her. I would be lost without her. She handles everything with professionalism and proper documentation. She was able to get top dollar for my property through her expertise in preparation and advertisement.

Julie M.Property Owner

After I sold my house, I chose to rent instead of buying in the Upstate of SC. Jason, MaryAnn, and Quartermaster Properties have made the process easy. Good quality home, and in immaculate condition when I moved in. I love the online pay and account information.

That Makes it Happen

Sales Team

Jason Shamis

Broker in Charge

Jason, a Charleston, SC native, has worked in the real estate business since 2008. He initially oversaw and managed a 5,000 square foot vacation rental on Folly Beach where Quartermaster Properties began. Since that time, Jason has earned his real estate sales license to provide his clients with complete real estate services.

However, Jason’s career has not always been in real estate. Upon graduation, he joined the US Air Force and was assigned to Pope Air Force Base, Fayetteville, NC where he managed the maintenance of more than 30 C-130 aircraft. When his active duty enlistment ended in October 2000, Jason joined the Air Force Reserves, moved to Greenville, SC, and worked as the Assistant Golf Professional at the Thornblade Club, managing the customer service staff and coordinating multiple corporate golf tournaments throughout the year.

In 2002, after the events of 9/11, Jason was activated to support Operation Iraqi Freedom and was stationed at Joint Base Charleston, SC where he managed the maintenance and maintenance personnel for more than 50 C-17 aircraft. In 2019, Jason retired from the Air Force Reserves after serving twenty-three years between active and reserve duty. During Jason’s active duty military and reserve service he received the Diamond Sharp Award, Air Force Achievement Medal, Exemplary Achievement Award, NCO of the quarter for the Maintenance Wing, Accommodation Medal, and two Meritorious Service Medals.

With the culmination of Jason’s careers and knowledge of real estate, you won’t find a better fit to help you with all of your real estate needs. His philosophy is two-fold — no one cares how much you know until they know how much you care and always do what is right even when no one is watching.

In Memoriam of Dana Smith

Dana Smith passed away on April 19th, 2021 due to complications from Covid 19. Dana was named Realtor of the Quarter for the first quarter of 2021 and was ramping up for the best year of his real estate career. Between April and May, he sold four homes and had one under contract. He also leased four homes during this time while managing thirty other homes. He was working and answering emails while still in ICU only a few hours before he passed.

His dedication to helping people was unmatched in the real estate community and embodied all of the Code of Ethics to be called a Realtor. He absolutely loved real estate! He loved helping people find a home for their families. He loved working and interacting with people above all else.

We grieve the loss of him but are overwhelmingly thankful that he made us all better people! He became more than a colleague, he was family. Dana lived life the way we all should, “Love your neighbor as yourself” (Mathew 22:39).
