Broker-led · 20+ years in real estate · Three generations · 37 Arizona markets
Residential and commercial property management, leasing and sales across Anthem and the north I-17 corridor, for owners here and out of state. One all-inclusive rate in writing before you sign, and a broker who personally oversees your property.

I’m Olivier “Ollie” Lessing Barré, designated broker of Barré Properties, and I personally oversee every property we manage in Anthem. I’ve spent more than twenty years in real estate. In 2007 I founded a property management company on the Westside of Los Angeles, serving owners in Beverly Hills, Malibu, Calabasas and the neighborhoods around them, and grew it into a large family-run business before moving my family to Arizona in 2020.
We manage throughout Maricopa County, and Anthem is a market we know and specialize in: the three associations under the Anthem Community Council, the line at the I-17 where unincorporated county ends and the City of Phoenix begins, and what Parkside, the Country Club and the newer phases actually rent for. When you call, you reach the broker who signed your agreement, not a call center or a rotating account manager.
Our relationships are built on handshakes, trust and accountability. We keep every owner’s information private, put every term in writing before anything is signed, and send monthly statements with every invoice attached.
Anthem is a Del Webb master plan that opened in 1999 at the foot of Daisy Mountain and Gavilan Peak, about 30 miles north of downtown Phoenix on the I-17. The Anthem Community Council counts 10,305 homes on 5,920 acres, with 15 miles of trails, the 63-acre Anthem Community Park at the center and three homeowners’ associations: Parkside, Country Club and The Village. The Census counted 23,190 residents in the Anthem CDP in 2020.
Most of Anthem is unincorporated Maricopa County, east of the freeway. Part of Parkside extends west across the I-17 into the City of Phoenix, which supplies its water and police and has its own rental rules. Homes sit in the Deer Valley Unified School District, with Boulder Creek High School inside the community, and the Outlets North Phoenix, formerly the Outlets at Anthem, at the Anthem Way interchange. A few exits south, TSMC’s semiconductor campus near the I-17, Loop 303 and Carefree Highway has added a large new employer to the north Valley.
For an owner, the numbers are clear. The American Community Survey puts Anthem’s median gross rent at $2,548 for 2020 to 2024, with about 85% of homes owner-occupied, so rentals are a small share of a large, finished community and a well-kept one stands out. What decides the return is the house itself: which association it sits in, which side of the freeway, its age and condition. We price every property on its own comparables.

Retail and shopping centers, single-tenant net-leased pads, office, flex, small industrial, medical office and mixed-use in Anthem — run as its own practice, because Arizona regulates nonresidential brokerage differently and commercial accounting has nothing in common with collecting a single rent check.
Lease abstraction and critical dates, CAM budgeting and annual reconciliation, transaction privilege tax, and the designated broker’s signature on every file — as A.R.S. § 32-2175 requires.
Live listings across Anthem, Parkside, Anthem Country Club, Tramonto, New River, Desert Hills. We will run the cap rate on anything you are considering.
One rate covers the whole job. The things other companies bill separately are simply included.
Marketing, showings, and full screening — credit, background, income, and rental history. In a market with new inventory arriving constantly, speed to lease is what protects your return.
Collection, owner disbursements, monthly statements with full reconciliation, and year-end reporting your accountant will not complain about.
Vetted I-17 Corridor trades, coordinated and supervised. Vendors bill their real rate and the invoice passes straight through with no markup on routine work. Major renovations and capital projects are quoted separately, with the supervision scope agreed in writing first.
Move-in, move-out, and periodic condition inspections with photos, included in the fee rather than billed per visit.
Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act compliance, proper trust accounting, and ADRE oversight. Licensed brokerage, general liability and E&O insured.
Late rent, lease violations, notices, and the occasional eviction. This is the part owners hire out, and it is the part we take off your plate entirely.

The details that catch owners out in Anthem, and how we handle each one.
East of the I-17, Anthem is unincorporated Maricopa County. West of it, part of Parkside is inside the City of Phoenix, which requires its own short-term rental permit under City Code § 10-195. Water, police and permits follow the line, so we confirm which side a property is on before we quote anything.
Arizona law bars counties from prohibiting short-term rentals (A.R.S. § 11-269.17), and Maricopa County’s updated Zoning Ordinance, effective January 9, 2026, allows them in line with state law. State law also rules out special events and other nonresidential use, and every short-term rental needs an Arizona transaction privilege tax license under A.R.S. § 42-5005.
The Anthem Community Council sits over the Parkside, Country Club and Village associations. Their CC&Rs and rules can set lease terms and tenant requirements, and Arizona law (A.R.S. § 33-1806.01) lets an association require tenant information from the owner. We read the governing documents before we list or model a short stay.
Arizona requires every owner of residential rental property to register it with the county assessor and update the record within ten days of a change (A.R.S. § 33-1902). An owner who lives outside Arizona must also name an in-state statutory agent. We check it at onboarding.
Anthem’s first homes are now more than twenty-five years old, and air conditioning, water heaters, roofs and pool equipment are reaching replacement age. That work is done by licensed contractors and vendors, and we coordinate and supervise it, with major replacements quoted to you in writing first.
The I-17 runs about 30 miles to downtown Phoenix, past the Deer Valley and Norterra employment areas and the TSMC campus near Loop 303. North, the same freeway climbs to Black Canyon City, the Verde Valley and Flagstaff.
Many Anthem owners live elsewhere in the Valley, in California or out of state. We act as your eyes and ears on the property without you having to be there, coordinated and supervised by us and performed by vetted, insured providers at their real cost.
Scheduled interior and exterior checks between tenants or while you are away: systems run, irrigation verified, and the home made ready before you arrive.
Renovation, landscape and repair work watched on your behalf, with access controlled and progress documented in photos.
For second-home owners: heat or cooling set, systems checked, grounds at standard and deliveries received before you land.
The same broker and the same terms in every market we serve. If you own in more than one, you deal with one office.
