Property Management
Commerce City sits at a genuine crossroads — close enough to downtown Denver for an easy commute, close enough to Denver International Airport to attract relocating professionals, and still affordable enough that quality rental properties here deliver strong yields without the barrier-to-entry costs you find closer to the city core. Bergan & Company has managed Denver-metro investment properties since 1961, and we've watched Commerce City evolve from an industrial edge community into one of the region's most compelling markets for single-family and townhome rentals. If you own rental property here — or are considering your first purchase — our team knows exactly what it takes to keep it leased, maintained, and performing.

Commerce City has undergone a quiet but steady transformation over the past two decades. What was once known primarily for its industrial corridors and oil refineries is now home to master-planned neighborhoods, top-rated schools, and a renter demographic that skews toward working families and commuter professionals. That shift creates a durable base of tenant demand — the kind that keeps vacancies short and turnover manageable.
The employment picture here is genuinely diverse. Suncor Energy's refinery complex and nearby industrial employers provide blue-collar stability, while the easy I-76 and I-270 access pulls in workers from Denver's tech, healthcare, and logistics sectors who want more square footage for their dollar. Denver International Airport — just a short drive east — is one of the region's largest employers, and many of its employees specifically seek rentals in Commerce City to minimize their commute. The A-Line commuter rail (the University of Colorado A Line), with stations at 40th & Airport and the Central Park area, gives renters a car-optional path downtown, which matters to younger tenants.
Property types span a wide range. Reunion and other master-planned communities deliver newer construction single-family homes with HOA-maintained common areas. Buffalo Run and Heritage Greens offer more established stock with mature landscaping. Closer to the southern edge of the city, you find townhomes and smaller condos that attract first-time renters and smaller households. That variety is an advantage for investors — there is a property type here for nearly every price point and tenant profile.
Reunion is Commerce City's flagship master-planned community and consistently generates the strongest family-tenant interest. The neighborhood features parks, trails, a community recreation center, and newer construction homes with open floor plans that renters expect today. Because homes here were built relatively recently, deferred maintenance is less of a concern and appliances tend to be current — both factors that reduce owner headaches. Tenants in Reunion tend to sign longer leases and treat properties with care; families with school-age children, in particular, value stability.
Buffalo Run Golf Course anchors this community and gives it a distinct identity. Homes here are generally larger and the surrounding environment feels quieter than Commerce City's busier corridors. Landlords can reasonably expect a tenant profile that skews toward established professionals and families who appreciate the open space and lower density. The tradeoff is that the rental pool is somewhat smaller, so pricing and presentation need to be sharp to minimize vacancy.
Heritage Greens is one of Commerce City's more established residential pockets, with mature trees and a neighborhood feel that newer developments haven't had time to cultivate. Its proximity to shopping along 88th Avenue and quick access to I-76 make it practical for renters who commute in multiple directions. For owners, the older housing stock means staying ahead of maintenance is more important — roofs, HVAC systems, and water heaters in these homes may need attention sooner than newer builds.
Starr Farm represents Commerce City's newer residential growth and attracts renters who want contemporary finishes and modern layouts without paying Central Park or Stapleton prices. Demand here is strong, particularly among young families and dual-income households who are priced out of closer-in Denver neighborhoods. Rental properties in Starr Farm typically lease quickly when priced competitively.
The ongoing redevelopment of the National Western Stock Show complex on the edge of Commerce City and Denver has drawn real attention — and real investment — to the surrounding areas. Year-round events, improved river access, and proximity to the future National Western Center create foot traffic and economic energy that benefits nearby rental owners. Townhomes and smaller properties in this vicinity appeal to renters who want urban convenience without urban prices.
Understanding your tenant drives better decisions about how to prepare and price your property. In Commerce City, the dominant renter profile is family-oriented — two adults, often with children, seeking at least three bedrooms, a garage, and outdoor space. Schools matter enormously to this group. Properties zoned to well-regarded schools in the Adams 14 or Brighton 27J districts will consistently attract more applicants than comparable homes in less-desirable attendance zones.
Professional photography is one of the highest-return investments a rental owner can make. Our listings are syndicated to more than 40 rental platforms with professional photos standard — because in today's market, renters eliminate options within seconds based on images alone. Homes that photograph well fill faster. Our free rental analysis will also help you understand exactly where your property sits relative to the current market so you price to attract quality applicants without leaving money on the table.
Colorado's landlord-tenant laws carry real obligations — from habitability standards to security deposit handling to required notice procedures. Commerce City property owners also need to stay aware of Adams County and city-level licensing requirements that apply to rental properties. None of this is insurmountable, but it is detail-oriented work that catches self-managing owners off guard when they're not current on changes.
HOA governance is a factor in many Commerce City communities, particularly Reunion and Buffalo Run. HOAs set rules about tenant behavior, parking, exterior modifications, and more — and the landlord is ultimately responsible for ensuring compliance. A property management firm that knows these communities helps you avoid the friction and fines that come from HOA violations.
Seasonal maintenance is a real cost of Colorado ownership. Winters bring snow load, ice damming, frozen pipes in exposed plumbing, and furnace failures that happen on the coldest nights. Summers bring hail — one of the most common causes of roof and siding damage along the Front Range. Proactive spring and fall maintenance walkthroughs catch small problems before they become expensive emergencies. Our 24/7 emergency maintenance line and vetted contractor network mean issues get addressed quickly, protecting both your tenant relationship and your asset's long-term value.
Our property management services cover the full ownership experience: leasing, tenant screening, rent collection, maintenance coordination, HOA compliance, and monthly financial reporting. You stay informed without being on call. You can also browse our current Commerce City rentals to see how we present and market properties in this market.
We believe you should know exactly what management costs before you sign anything. There are no upfront fees and no hidden charges at Bergan & Company. Our fee structure is straightforward:
That structure means our incentives are aligned with yours. We fill vacancies quickly because the leasing fee only gets paid when we place a qualified tenant — and we maintain that tenancy because renewals are free. No reason to churn tenants, no reason to drag out vacancies. Full pricing details are available on our pricing page, and we're always happy to walk through exactly what you'd pay based on your specific property.
Bergan & Company has been managing Denver-metro rental properties since 1961 — through market cycles, regulatory changes, and neighborhood transformations that most property management firms never lived through. We're now in our third generation of family ownership, with Wally Johnson, Jay Bergan, and Cody Bergan each bringing hands-on experience to how we serve property owners. That continuity matters: we know this region because we've operated here for over six decades, not because we opened a franchise office last year.
Our performance reflects that experience. We maintain a 95% occupancy rate across managed properties and keep delinquency below 1%. When a property does become vacant, we fill it in an average of two to three weeks — a direct result of our in-person tenant meetings, thorough credit and background checks, and income verification requiring three times the monthly rent. We conduct showings seven days a week because serious tenants don't wait for weekday-only availability.
We also serve a number of neighboring communities if your portfolio extends beyond Commerce City. Our teams cover Northglenn and Stonegate, among 19 Denver-metro areas — giving multi-property owners a single point of contact across the region.
No call centers, no rotating account managers. When you work with Bergan & Company, you work with the family. That's been true since 1961, and it's still true today.

“This company was amazing! We had so many questions and curiosities and they were nothing but patient and responsive in a quick timely manner. I definitely recommend them. The process getting the lease was super speedy and they were very communicative about the house and the process of getting it.”

“Since 2019 Bergen and Company have managed our SFR in Denver and as long as they wish to manage, forever they will be our property manager. As an out of state landlord having worked with many residentail property managers in states CA, NV, NC SC, & CO, Bergen & Company ranks as the best in my experience. Lot of daily problems to resolve to be an effective PM; keeping the property fully occupied with quality tenants and dealing with property upkeep, etc etc. Without drama or adding burden to the owner with overcommunication, Bergen quietly runs the show in an efficient manner. The staff is responsible and ultra communicative when contacted from office support Kendra, to maintenence up to owner Cody Bergen. Can't speak highly enough of their top quality service. Buildium runs their front facing property management software for owners and internally. GL, income statement, balance sheet etc. No waiting for a bare bones summary statement to know what happened last month with your property, real time reports always ready to download and review. Excellent service, the best accounting reporting, quality staff, competent ownership defines Bergen and Co. They take the stress and worry out of managing your real asset.”
