About Michael Barrett

Michael’s passion for real estate has been evident since he joined Century 21 Kangaroo Island as a Sales Consultant in 2003. His dedication quickly shone through, leading him to take over the business in 2005. With over 20 years of real estate experience, Michael has sold more than 2,000 properties on Kangaroo Island and has built an impressive portfolio of listings. His expertise has earned him numerous Century 21 annual awards, including his 9th Centurion accolade and the rare honour of being inducted into the Century 21 Hall of Fame—one of the highest recognitions in the industry.

Michael is deeply committed to his clients, taking pride in forming personal connections to meet their needs and exceed their expectations. His genuine kindness and generosity are cornerstones of his approach, enhancing both his business and client relationships.

Having called Kangaroo Island home for over 35 years, Michael has an in-depth understanding of the island’s lifestyle and its future potential. With all three of his children born locally, he’s well-acquainted with the community’s medical facilities, schools, and recreational opportunities. Known affectionately in-house as the "walking encyclopedia," Michael is a go-to source of information for clients, even those he worked with years ago.

Beyond his professional life, Michael is a committed community member, volunteering his time to coach sports at both senior and junior levels. His business supports numerous local sporting clubs and community groups. In his personal time, Michael enjoys learning guitar, spending time at the island’s pristine beaches, fishing, and making memories with family and friends.
