Top Denver Property Management Companies Compared (2026 Fees)

By Denver Rental Managers · Updated October 27, 2026 · 12 min read

Summary

Most Denver-area property managers that publish prices charge 8–10% of collected rent each month plus a leasing fee of about 50% of one month's rent, with renewal fees from $150 to $495. Flat-fee options exist: Renters Warehouse lists $129 a month, Mynd $139–$159 a month, and Bergan & Company $250 a month. Local firms like Grace, Bergan and Meer & Company have managed Denver rentals for decades; national brands like Evernest and Mynd add scale and standardized programs. The right fit depends on your property, your rent and how much service you want.

Key takeaways

  • Published monthly fees cluster at 8–10% of rent. A few firms charge less (Real Estate Solutions: 7%, capped at $200) or a flat fee.
  • Leasing fees are usually 50% of one month's rent with full management, and 75–100% for leasing-only service.
  • Renewal fees range from $150 (Walters & Company) to $495 (Real Property Management Colorado), and some firms don't publish one.
  • Guarantees differ a lot. Read the conditions, not just the headline.
  • Check every company's license yourself on the Colorado Division of Real Estate lookup before you sign.
How this comparison works. Fees and programs below are quoted from each company's own website, checked October 27, 2026. Prices change, so confirm in writing before you sign. This isn't a ranking, and companies are listed alphabetically. Denver Rental Managers is a free matching service. Partner managers pay us a fee for introductions. Being listed here doesn't mean a company is a partner, and no company can pay to be listed or to change what we say about it.

How we chose these companies

We looked for companies that market residential property management to individual Denver-area owners, publish real information about their services on their own websites, and have an office or an active Denver service page. That gave us 10 local and independent firms and 6 national, franchise or tech-platform companies.

There are many more good managers in the metro than any list can hold. Small firms that don't publish prices are often excellent. Use this page to learn what normal looks like, then compare the actual proposals you get. For more companies, filtered by city, see our Denver property manager directory.

Its own website says it's a technology company, not a property management firm. If you go this route, you're the landlord of record and responsible for Colorado law compliance.

How to pick from this list

  1. Shortlist by fit. Match your property type and area to the company's focus. A condo in Capitol Hill and a duplex in Arvada may need different managers.
  2. Verify the license. Look up the company on the Colorado Division of Real Estate license lookup. Managing rentals for others in Colorado requires a real estate brokerage license.
  3. Get two or three proposals in writing. Ask for the full fee schedule and the management agreement, not just the headline rate.
  4. Compare the total, not the percentage. Add the monthly fee, leasing fee, renewals, setup and maintenance markups for a full year. Our proposal comparison worksheet walks through it.
  5. Read the guarantee conditions. Ask what triggers each guarantee, the cap, and what's excluded.

Frequently asked questions

What do Denver property management companies charge?

Most Denver-area companies that publish prices charge 8–10% of collected rent each month and a leasing fee of about 50% of one month's rent when you also buy full management. Renewal fees we found range from $150 to $495. Flat-fee managers charge about $129–$250 a month. All figures are from company websites checked in October 2026.

Which is the best property management company in Denver?

There's no single best company for every owner. The right one depends on your property type, location, rent level and how much service you want. Compare at least two written proposals, verify each company's license with the Colorado Division of Real Estate, and compare the full year-one cost rather than just the monthly percentage.

Are local or national property managers better in Denver?

Neither is better across the board. Local firms often offer deeper neighborhood knowledge and a consistent point of contact. National firms offer standardized technology, programs and pricing. See our local vs. national comparison for the trade-offs.

How do I check if a Denver property manager is licensed?

Search the company name or license number on the Colorado Division of Real Estate's online license lookup. In Colorado, managing rentals for other people generally requires a real estate brokerage license. Confirm the license is active and check for any public disciplinary actions.
