Meet your new partners, Pete & Georgie
“We always go the extra mile.”
Back in 2016 we purchased and renovated a modest three-bedroom co-op. We had two goals: Pete needed extra money for grad school, and Georgie wanted to create an inspiring space for friends, family, and guests. Fast forward to today and what started as a passion project has transformed into a thriving business that we're incredibly proud of.
Over the years, we've hosted 1000+ guests, each leaving with fond memories and positive experiences. This journey has taught us the value of hospitality, and we're excited to bring that same warmth and care to your property. Whether you're looking to enhance your property's appeal or maximize your rental income, we're here to help every step of the way.

What Our Clients Say
Sara Got a partner to take her through the entire process, start to finish.
“I was lucky to find Peter and Georgie to manage our property in Piermont.”
Peter & Georgie had the listing up with amazing pictures within a few weeks. They have kept us informed and involved, which we appreciate, and give us a full view of the performance of the house. They put full effort into everything they do and clearly care about our investment as their own. Their honesty, integrity, and work ethic are refreshing and I would highly recommend working with them.
We are very happy to partner with Peter & Georgie, and would recommend Block & Barker to anyone who is considering listing a property as a short-term rental.

Amaidy’s Airbnb doubts turned into a successful venture, boosting her rental income.
“Our listing is always occupied and the guests are very respectful.”
My husband and I had actually been considering listing our unit on Airbnb before meeting with Peter and Georgie, but after after seeing how it all works, I am very glad that we partnered with them. They handle all the guest communication, including any guest issues. Our listing is always occupied and the guests are very respectful. Block & Barker does a great job of communicating with us ahead of time, and always keep us informed of when guests are coming and going. They even made updates to our unit, like replacing the shower head and adding ACs, which added value to the property.
I am very glad that we partnered with Block & Barker and recommend them to anyone!
