A win-win partnership for owners

Financial Return

Because of our expertise and knowledge of the area, market, and business, Brett/Robinson consistently works to deliver substantial returns to our owners.

Free Maintenance

Our progressive maintenance program includes free maintenance labor. We simply charge for parts and materials on work orders. If a vendor is needed, only the vendor's fee is charged to owners, with no additional administrative costs.

Marketing

From print to digital, our data-driven marketing strategy is built to keep your property rented throughout the year.

Optional Commission Programs

We offer “Bookings-By-Owner Plus Brett/Robinson” (BBO+BR) and “Bookings-By-Owner” (BBO) programs at a reduced commission rate.

Earnings and Oversight

Rental earnings are direct deposited each month into the bank account of your choice. Your Owner's Website shows guest reservations, real-time maintenance work orders, and monthly financial statements. Lodging tax for the city, county, and state is collected from the guest and disbursed on your behalf.

Staff Available 24/7

Our team provides service for you and your guests 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Many of our onsite service desks are staffed 24 hours a day, and housekeeping and maintenance are staffed daily until 11 p.m., with on-call help for emergencies after 11 p.m.

Quick Turnaround

Most of our buildings have onsite housekeeping staff, and we own and operate a commercial laundry facility in Orange Beach for our linens and towels. We also look for accidental guest damage and keep you informed while we take care of it.

Phil & Cindy W.

“We highly recommend Brett/Robinson to manage your condominiums. We previously had other companies manage our condominiums in Gulf Shores before we asked Brett/Robinson to take over management. Brett/Robinson has been easy to work with, very responsive to our needs and tenants, provides prompt payment and accounting at the end of each month, and does a good job of keeping our rental property rented and their cleaning crew is outstanding.”

“It is my pleasure to share our experience of having Brett/Robinson manage our three condos. We can compare their service to other companies; without hesitation, they have exceeded all aspects of the services offered by others we have tried. Our rental income has doubled, with one unit being the top revenue producer for the complex. I highly recommend anyone looking for a full-service experienced rental management company to consider Brett/Robinson.”
