Single Family Homes

HouseMaster Denver Central is your one stop answer to keeping your rental property compliant.   As of January 18, 2022, Denver city implemented inspection, compliance, and licensing policies for the Residential Rental Program (RRP) associated with the “Healthy Residents for All” ordinance. This ordinance was passed in March 2021, to ensure minimum standards of safe living for all tenants within city limits. In order to remain compliant with the city of Denver, all rental units must obtain inspection and licensing.

 In order to successfully get a license, a certified inspector certified by:

 ASHI, INTERNACHI or CMI and ICC

This is a high standard and there are a limited number of certified inspectors in Denver who meet these qualifications. Once licensed, landlords will only need to renew every 4 years. Single family homes built in the last 4 years are not required to get an inspection. HouseMaster Denver Central has highly trained inspectors to perform visual, non-invasive inspections, to inform the owner of any issues in the rental property. We will take photos of every part of the checklist and report back with a custom issue punch list of our findings. We'll work with you every step of the way, including our client care team facilitating re-inspection, and notifying you of all re-application steps.

A single-family house is a free-standing, single unit residence inhabited by one tenant or one family of tenants. For this unit type, the landlord owns the entire building and the land it is built on. All single-family rental properties must be licensed by January 1st, 2024.

The Denver City Inspection Checklist is straightforward, and our team is trained to handle every aspect and issue that comes along with the Denver city provided 26-point checklist. Here are the main things we'll be checking at your property:

1. – Egress
2. – Water Systems
3. – Electrical
4. – Fire Safety
5. – Walls, Roof, Foundation
6. – Trash Removal
7. – Pest Control

As of Jan 1, 2024, All rental properties in the city and county of Denver are required to have Rental License.

This is the important deadline for single-family units. By this date, any building operated as a single-family rental property, must be licensed. You can apply for a license at DenverGov.org. Licensing is required on all single-family homes that are offered as rentals. Any building that has a single rental unit on a parcel is included.
