HI Melissa-  I would recommend you contact a few property managers in Bluffton SC to get some recommendation. 

Do anyone have recommendations?

The market here offers a lot of potential.I highly recommend making a trip here to get a feel for the different neighborhoods and understand where the best opportunities lie.

I would recommend targeting 30 day minimum rentals (Most associations are 90+), allowing 12+ rentals per year (most allow 1-3), and no in-person screening for tenants required.

I recommend getting some help to make the process easier. 

I've been recommending www.repstracker.com to my clients. 

Hi Shilo, if you haven't would recommend doing research on recently sold properties to determine the ARV of a renovated property in those areas. 

Would you recommend anyone?! 

I’d recommend listening to the straight up Chicago investor podcast for local information, going to the variety of meetups that are in this great city, and meeting a lot of the people posting here. 

I've found that there are markets that have a balance of decent cashflow and decent appreciation and that's the type of market I eventually decided to invest in.I'm not too familiar with the different markets down there but I'd highly recommend looking into Candor Realty.
