Our Company

Choosing the right real estate brokerage isn’t just about finding an agent—it’s about tapping into a powerful network of influence, trust, and deep-rooted community connections. At Rent Right | Home Right, our brokerage is built on decades of social capital—the relationships, credibility, and goodwill we’ve cultivated throughout our community.

As the largest residential property management firm in the region and a boutique sales division handling $30-$40 million in annual transactions, we don’t just sell homes—we connect buyers and sellers through an unmatched network of local expertise. Many of our team members were born and raised in Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, and Dewey-Humboldt, giving them insider knowledge that goes beyond market stats—they understand the pulse of the community.

Property management can often feel like a double-edged sword, favoring either the Owner or the Resident. At Rent Right, we take a different approach—one that creates a relationship of mutual respect and appreciation between property Owners, Residents, vendors, and the community. By prioritizing fairness, communication, and long-term success, we foster partnerships that benefit everyone involved. Since 2013, Rent Right has grown to manage over 800 properties, helping Owners maximize their investments while ensuring Residents feel at home.

Our leadership’s deep involvement with city governments, local boards, and charitable organizations ensures that we are not just market experts but also trusted local advisors. When you list your home with us, you’re not just hiring a realtor—you’re engaging a team with extensive community ties, ready to leverage relationships that matter to maximize your home’s visibility and value.

Additionally, our brokerage has built an unparalleled network of trusted vendors, including a licensed general contractor and trade professionals who have been working with us for years. Because of their loyalty to our firm, our clients receive timely, high-quality, and cost-effective services—a distinct advantage when preparing a home for sale or negotiating repairs.

In real estate, success isn’t just about numbers—it’s about who you know and who trusts you. Our social capital is your competitive edge. Let us put our influence, relationships, and market expertise to work for you.

Our Team

RENT RIGHT

Picture of Michael Yarnes
Michael Yarnes CEO / Designated Broker

Every now and then, something comes along that changes the course of your life. For Michael, that “something” was Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki. The book opened his eyes to the power of passive income through real estate investment, and from that moment, the fire was lit. In 2007, he earned his real estate license, and by 2008, he had purchased his first rental property. But finding a property manager whose approach aligned with his own proved to be a challenge. That’s when he had an idea—why not create a property management company that does things right? In 2013, Rent Right was born, built on the simple yet powerful mission of not just collecting rent, but truly caring for properties as if they were his own.

Beyond real estate, Michael has a deep passion for giving back to his community. Over the years, he has received multiple awards for his work in both business and philanthropy, with one cause standing out: The Launch Pad Teen Center. Alongside his wife, Cody Anne, he spearheads the organization’s largest annual fundraiser, Share the Love, which raises tens of thousands of dollars each year—reaching over $80,000 in 2024 alone! His commitment to making a difference also led to the creation of Do Right®, the charitable arm of Rent Right, which has contributed over $250,000 to local nonprofits, supporting organizations that create lasting impact.

Michael’s strong work ethic was shaped early on—first in his grandparents’ sub shop, where he learned the ins and outs of customer service, and then through high school athletics, particularly wrestling. In 2000, he packed up and headed west to Prescott College, earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Conservation Biology (with a minor in Photography—because he’s got an eye for quality and detail). Originally from a small town in rural western New York, Michael is a true outdoorsman at heart. When he’s not running his business or volunteering, you’ll likely find him off the beaten path, soaking in the beauty of nature—where he feels most at home.

Picture of Jill Hay
Jill Hay Inspection Agent / Licensed Realtor

The first rule about spotting Jill Hay out and about in the Quad Cities: don’t start asking her maintenance questions. Why? Because you just might actually be talking to her identical twin sister, who is always happy to share maintenance advice. The catch? Holly’s suggestions don’t exactly come with the Rent Right seal of approval (sorry, Holly—but we appreciate your enthusiasm!).

Jill started her career in property management at just 19 years old with a local Prescott company, working in maintenance. She managed work orders, coordinated with vendors, conducted inspections, and tackled a variety of responsibilities. She even collected rent from Rent Right owner/broker Michael Yarnes when he was just a young man going through college.

Jill later expanded her expertise by co-owning and running a roofing company. While this venture took her away from Prescott for a time, her heart never truly left her hometown.

In 2019, Jill’s property management experience came full circle where now instead of collecting rent from Michael Yarnes, she is proud to work with him. She now specializes in move-out and pre-move-in inspections, using her hands-on experience and mechanical know-how to navigate the tricky middle ground between property investors and residents. Jill’s secret? Staying fair, empathetic, and always upholding Rent Right’s high standards.

When Jill’s not juggling inspections, you’ll find her wrangling her two feisty teenagers and driving the backroads. You might also find her rocking out at concerts with her sister (bonus points if their favorite drummer is performing!). Jill also enjoys hiking, practicing yoga, devouring her latest book series, and brunching with the girls.

Picture of Lacey Kesterson
Lacey Kesterson Project Manager / Licensed Realtor

From the dusty backroads of Williamson Valley comes Lacey—more than just a property manager; she’s practically a property prodigy. Raised watching her parents navigate the wild world of investment properties, she learned early that in the good ol’ days, a firm handshake (the kind that would make today’s lawyers break into a cold sweat) could seal the deal—none of this fancy-pants paperwork stuff. Times have changed, but Lacey’s here to tackle modern property management with a sharp mind, a warm smile, and yes, a firm handshake—just to keep things on track.

With over 17 years of wrangling sometimes-unruly customers in the service industry and a real estate license since 2016, Lacey has been an integral part of the Rent Right team—wearing more hats than a royal wedding and the Kentucky Derby combined. These days, she’s the queen of project management: bringing structure to chaos (as much as possible in property management), launching new initiatives, and working alongside the team to solve problems. She’s the steady hand you want in your corner when things get hectic.

Though she may only work part-time in our office, she works full-time in our hearts. When she’s not helping the team keep Rent Right running smoothly, you’ll find her knee-deep (sometimes literally) in rural life—working cattle, traveling with her large pack of misfit dogs, or teaming up with her other half, Jordan, for their next great adventure or DIY project. Whether you're a Resident or an Owner, Lacey brings a signature blend of professionalism and warmth to every interaction. Just be ready to bring your best handshake—she takes her bonds as seriously as she takes an occasional whiskey in the evening: savored slowly and best enjoyed with good company.
