Meet our Team

Evan Camire
Founder/CEO
-
Evan Camire is the founder of Short & Sweet Properties, a boutique short-term rental company based in Charleston, SC.
-
He launched the business with a clear vision: to make short-term rental ownership not only more profitable but also truly hands-off and enjoyable for property owners, while delivering exceptional vacation experiences for every guest.
-
As an investor & real estate enthusiast himself, Evan saw firsthand the inefficiencies in STR management: missed revenue, poor guest communication, and inconsistent operations. So he built a better way: a high-touch, high-impact service that helps owners increase their returns while we deliver the 5-star guest experiences.
-
When he's not optimizing listings or onboarding new homes, you can find Evan weightlifting, playing spikeball on Folly Beach, reading, or spending time with his family.
