Your property is managed locally by a dedicated General Manager who oversees day-to-day operations. From vendor coordination to property checks, there is always someone nearby ensuring everything is handled properly and your home is protected.

Barrett Is Fixing The Broken System

When did property management become a remote job?

Large vacation rental management companies take on your home, list it, and manage everything from behind a screen—without ever stepping foot inside. Bookings may come in, but guest experiences suffer, reviews drop, and you’re still left coordinating cleaners, maintenance, and handling issues when things go wrong.

Barrett is fixing that broken system by bringing management back to the ground level. Every property is assigned a dedicated local General Manager who lives in your market, knows your home, and manages the full vendor network—while Barrett powers performance behind the scenes with expensive software to make sure your property ranks #1. The result is a properly managed, high-performing rental that actually delivers the passive income experience for property owners.

What Property Owners Are Saying

“My husband and I originally used Evolve but switched to Barrett Management because we wanted someone local and hands-on for our house in Bethal. The difference has been night and day. It finally feels like a true passive income experience. Our payout arrives before the 15th of every month along with a detailed P&L statement, which we really appreciate. We love the org structure of the company, with having Sean as our assigned GM makes the entire process seamless—he handles every aspect of the management.”

“I had no idea where to start with turning our Callicoon farmhouse into a rental, but Barrett Management handled everything from day one. They fully furnished the house, staged it beautifully, and now manage the entire operation. What felt overwhelming at first quickly became completely hands-off for us. They truly took care of every detail, and it’s been smooth ever since.”

“I have a family home in Rockland that was passed down to me, and we rarely used it but were always nervous about putting it on Airbnb. After meeting Sean, the GM of the area, and the team at Barrett Management, we felt confident moving forward. It has been a great experience. They treat the home like it’s their own, and that peace of mind has meant everything to me. The finical payouts have been very high each month as well and we have grown to be the top performing 4 bed 2 bath vacation rentalin the area.”

“Our family enjoyed a peaceful long weekend here at Barrett's farmhouse! The home was beautifully curated and in such a peaceful and serene property. Sean was very responsive throughout our stay. The home itself has nice bedrooms and such a cool attic playroom that my daughter really enjoyed. I see us coming back with friends later this year in the summertime.”

“A great winter stay. The property is beautiful, vast and private. The home is stunning with so many amenities and extras at every turn. Barrett was a great host who communicated thoroughly so we never had to question any part of our stay from check in to check out. Very kid friendly, the playroom was a huge hit. We look forward to staying here again in the summer!”

15-25% (pending property size) of gross booking revenue.
