I have been working with Karin and her team at Leighton Rentals since we began renting out our Ocean Edge unit in 2023. Karin and her team are extremely knowledgeable of the seasonal rental market often sharing informative industry articles. They are proactive and straightforward when it comes to rental rates. They monitor the seasonal market and trends, recommending rate changes if necessary. They conduct their business in a very professional and efficient manner answering their phones, returning calls, responding to emails, and handling unexpected owner or guest requests in a timely fashion. They are also well connected in and around the area when it comes to maintenance services which are very helpful especially if you do not live nearby. I am more than pleased with the turn-key service that has been provided to us over the past a few years. If you are interested in maintaining a seamless rental operation for many years to Come, I would highly recommend Karin Baxter-King and her team at Leighton Rental.

I am writing regarding Karin Baxter-King. I met Karin shortly after I purchased a home in Ocean Edge in Brewster, MA. I was looking for someone to rent my place out for me, and Karin was highly recommended by the realtor I used to buy my home. I bought my place in early May, 2023, and by mid-May, my place was booked. Ultimately, Karin was able to rent it out for almost the whole summer except for one week. This was very impressive given the short notice she was given to rent it out. That summer, there were a couple of times when things happened with renters and they needed assistance. Karin's office took care of everything. It was so nice not to have to worry about anything. Living at Ocean Edge where so many people rent condos, I had the opportunity to meet many of them. I had 3 individuals tell me that Karin helped them rent a place, and they could not have been happier. One woman indicated that her family rented for 10 years, and they never had any problems. These were all random conversations I had with strangers I met at the neighborhood pool, and they all had glowing things to say about Karin. As an owner who rented my place out, it was nice to hear these great things about Karin from these individuals. Karin is professional, organized and very diligent. She works so hard, and is genuinely such a kind person. I recommend her highly to anyone looking to rent their place out or to anyone looking for a place to rent.

Karin Baxter-King has been my agent for my cape cod summer rental via Leighton Realty for a few years now. She has been wonderful to work with, has managed to rent my condo for all the time I needed it rented. He’s been quite a responsible agent, polite, caring, trustworthy and easy to work with. It’s been a pleasure to have her be my agent for my summer rental condo.

Shortly after purchasing our Ocean Edge condominium from Leighton Team Realty, we decided to rent it out. Karin Baxter-King, the rental director at Leighton Rentals, guided us through the process of setting up our situation initially, and she has continued to take care of all aspects of the ongoing functioning of the process. With Karin’s expert assistance, our condo has quickly become a regular source of income for us. Utilizing the Leighton Rentals system has allowed us to have a rental property without all the hassles of running it ourselves. Clear and regular communication, an excellent cleaning service, an orderly and transparent booking procedure, efficient bookkeeping and payment services have all contributed to a smooth experience for us as owners. And Karin Baxter-King has made this possible with her reliable and pleasant collaboration. We appreciate Karin and her team very much.

We have rented our Ocean Edge patio home exclusively through Leighton Realty for the last 3 years. We have found their service to be exceptional. From advice around rental rates and property décor decisions, through to calendar management and back office administration. The quality of tenants they attract is high, and our property has always been treated with respect. Each year they have easily filled the slots we provided to them to fill in the calendar (usually 6-8 weeks over the summer). Their vendors (cleaners, etc.) always do an excellent job, and if there are ever issues during a tenant stay, they will always go above and beyond to fix the issue themselves – for us this has been running to pick up a spare cable box when ours broke, through to engaging with a plumber on our behalf to fix a fridge problem. We’re happy to provide additional information as helpful.

I am writing to recommend Leighton Rentals as the property manager for rental homes on Cape Cod. I chose Leighton because they are locally based and know the market on the Cape. Karin Baxter-King and Mike Montas have been easy to communicate with and responsive to my suggestions for describing the home and location on their website. When problems have arisen, whether it’s a question or complaint about something from a guest or a miscommunication with the housekeeper, they are on top of it, working to get it resolved. Renting out your family’s summer house can be stressful, and they’ve made it as seamless as possible.

During that time, I have been consistently impressed with her professionalism, knowledge of the real estate market, and dedication to clients. Karin always stays on top of the rental market and comes up with creative ideas to get more rentals. In the past 5 years, our rental process has been a very smooth experience. From getting pictures ready for the listing, to coordinating rentals and ensuring each summer is a great experience for the owners as well as the renters, Karin is always available and ready to help. Karin is a highly motivated and results-oriented individual with a proven track record of success in the real estate industry. I highly recommend her without reservation.

My husband and I are very happy to write this recommendation letter for Karin Baxter-King. We have owned our condo for 13 years and began renting it with Leighton in 2016. Karin has been our rental agent for the past five years and proven to be the most professional and knowledgeable person to work with. She is easy to communicate with, extremely knowledgeable about the rental market and quick to resolve any issues. Karin has been our best advocate in dealing with renters and getting the best pricing for our unit. In fact, we are very happy with the long-term renter she has secured for us for the past few years. We feel very confident working with Karin and recommend her highly.
