How BRIKitt removes all the hassle of Owning a Vacation Home





Your second home should be a place to relax and unwind without having to worry about nagging homeowner chores like mowing the lawn, paying the bills or finding a repair person to fix a broken dishwasher. To that end, BRIKitt offers fully managed co-ownership. But what does that really mean? We simplify the experience of owning a second home so you can enjoy all the benefits of ownership without all the hassles. These are four of the ways we make it easier and more enjoyable to own and use a second home.

Stylish interior design and furnishings


Outfitting a second home can be time-consuming and costly, so we make sure your home is ready for comfortable living from day one. Our goal is to provide you with a second home that is both beautiful and functional. Our team of interior designers gives each home a thorough makeover, selecting custom furnishings, artwork and accessories that complement the home’s architectural style and layout. We balance modern design with comfort to create liveble Luxury. BRIK owners should feel as comfortable or more comfortable in their second home as they do in their primary residence. In addition to furnishings, homes are fully equipped with all the essentials and more. We select high-quality linens, cookware and home electronics, and fun extras like books, board games and outdoor recreation items. Preparing for a stay at your second home should be as easy as packing a few clothes and toiletries, because everything else you need is already there. 

Impeccable cleaning and maintenance


Maintaining a second home from afar can be a challenge, and once you’re there, you don’t want to spend all your time on pesky homeowner tasks so BRIKitt takes care of them for you. After each owner’s stay, the home is thoroughly inspected and cleaned, and any maintenance issues are logged and resolved. We schedule preventive maintenance to head off problems, and set a side for long-term and unexpected (but inevitable) issues that arise at any home, such as replacing an appliance that stops working. We supply items like light bulbs and batteries so owners can easily take care of minor issues without needing to run to the store. We also make sure the property looks great year-round, with regular landscaping and region-specific upkeep.


Streamlined bill management


When you co-own a home, you need a fair and centralized system of billing. BRIKitt makes this aspect of ownership simple. For each home, we create an annual budget that includes all the operating expense, such as utilities, maintenance, repair reserves, property taxes and management. We then divide the total into yearly payments which owners pay pro rata, based on the number of BRIKs owned. Those funds go into the home’s SPV account, and BRIKitt then pays all the bills. 

Ongoing dedicated support


Your relationship with BRIKitt doesn’t end with your purchase. We employ local property managers to oversee maintenance and repairs, and we provide owners with a dedicated home representative you can contact before, during or after your stays with any questions or concerns. That home manager handles all the communication with the property manager, so BRIK owners don’t have to worry about scheduling repairs or explaining an issue to multiple people. We also check in with owners to see if their needs are being met and provide an opportunity for feedback. Our number one priority is ensuring BRIK owners have a delightful experience at their second homes. Maximize quality time at your second home and forget the hassles and take the next step toward second home bliss.

BRIKitt Stays Booking FAQ's

HOW MUCH TIME WILL I HAVE IN MY HOME EACH YEAR? Your access depends on the number of BRIKs you own. Each BRIKs includes 30 stay nights, and they are tracked on a 365-day basis. For example, if your ownership anniversary date is October 20, 2020, we’d count the total number of stayed nights between October 21, 2020, and October 20, 2021. WHAT IF I WANT TO ENJOY MORE STAYS IN MY HOME? As a benefit to owners, you are invited to enjoy stay nights that exceed your annual stay night threshold of 30 nights, pending home availability. A modest nightly operating fee is assessed to cover operating and ownership costs. The fee is used to offset costs for other owners, and there is no markup added. Owners will find rates to be dramatically less than booking a similar, non-Brikitt home. HOW DOES THE BOOKING APP WORK? The BRIK Owners app is powered by our AI based smart booking system. It’s easy to use and equitable for owners based on their number of BRIKs owned. The app displays real-time availabi...
