About First Flight Rentals

Exceptional Property Management & Vacation Rentals on the Outer Banks

At First Flight Rentals, we pride ourselves on offering exceptional property management and vacation rental services rooted in trust, professionalism, and true coastal hospitality. Serving vacation rental guests and property owners throughout the Outer Banks of North Carolina—from the northern beaches to Hatteras Island—we combine local expertise with professional standards to deliver an experience that's both personal and polished.

Our Story

Our owner, Jeff Fabrikant, lives in Washington, D.C., but his heart belongs to the Outer Banks. A longtime visitor and passionate supporter of the community, Jeff's love for the area inspired him to build a company dedicated to helping others experience the charm and beauty of this remarkable stretch of coast.

Leading our local operations is Lesley Moore, our General Manager. A lifelong Outer Banks local, Lesley has more than 25 years of experience in property management. Known for her warm southern hospitality and deep knowledge of the area, she treats every home and every guest as part of the family.

Together, Jeff's vision and Lesley's local expertise create a property management experience that's both professional and personal — helping property owners and guests alike feel right at home on the Outer Banks.

Founded in 2007, First Flight Rentals began as the preferred rental company for First Flight Retreat Condos in Kill Devil Hills.

Today, First Flight Rentals proudly manages properties in many of the Outer Banks' most sought-after communities, including Beach Cottages, First Flight Retreat, Sea Ranch Resort, Croatan Surf Club, Coastal Retreat, Scrimshaw, Sea Pointe, Seven C's Condos, The Quay, Dune Lantern, Ocean Breeze OBX, Oyster Pointe Condos, Waves Village, Rodanthe Sunset Retreat, and more—stretching from Kill Devil Hills and the Nags Head area south to Hatteras Island.
