Ziprent handles leasing, tenant screening, rent collection, maintenance coordination and statutory deposit accounting for Broomfield owners — one flat monthly fee per property.
Broomfield Municipal Code Chapter 5-39 is unusually blunt. Short-term rental of a residence that is not the owner’s principal residence is prohibited outright, with the penalty set by B.M.C. 5-39-120. To qualify you must live there more than half the year, may not advertise the whole property for more than 20 days in any month, and must show that address on your driver’s license, voter registration, dependents’ school records and the county assessor’s records.
The application fee is $100 and an approved license is valid for five years. Occupancy is capped by floor area — four renters up to 2,000 square feet, six from 2,000 to 2,500, eight at 2,500 and above — with no more than four renter vehicles, only two on the street. The license number must appear in every advertisement, a Renter’s Guide must go to guests, and sales tax of 4.15% plus lodger’s tax of 1.5% apply. For an investor, the practical reading is simple: in Broomfield the buy-to-let route is the long-term lease.
C.R.S. 38-12-103 requires a Broomfield owner to return the security deposit within one month of the later of lease termination or surrender of the premises, unless the lease sets a longer period, and that period can never exceed 60 days. Withhold any part of it and you must send a written statement itemizing the exact reasons. Willful retention makes you liable for three times the amount wrongfully withheld plus the tenant’s attorney fees and court costs, the tenant must give seven days’ notice before suing, and in court the landlord carries the burden of proving the withholding was not wrongful.
House Bill 25-1249, signed 3 June 2025 and effective 1 January 2026, tightened it further: no charging for normal wear and tear, documentation such as photos, invoices and inspection reports must reach the tenant within 14 days of a written request, and you cannot charge for carpet that was not replaced within the last 10 years.

Tenants and Owners Love Us
With the reviews to back it up as well 😎
“Extremely well-organized, professional, and efficient!!! […] Ziprent was able to do this with ease and in a very straight-forward way. I believe the best part about this company is how it is structured with several teams handling different aspects of the management (i.e. onboarding, repairs, leasing, etc), which made the whole process seamless. That in addition to also being affordable with flat-rate pricing makes this property management company best-in-class.If you’re looking for a property manager, Ziprent comes highly recommended!”

Broomfield FAQ
You got questions? We've got answers.
Our current average time is 14-21 days but depending on price and location it can be anywhere between 3-20 days in general.
Tenants will submit their request via their online account. Our platform will automatically send out bid requests from our extensive vendor network. We will surface the bid to you for your approval and then coordinate with the vendor and tenant to get the issue resolved.
To date we have done on-demand without any major issues. We carry an additional $50k in liability insurance to cover any damages, beyond your coverage, that may occur. Should a key go missing, we will have the locks rekeyed at our cost.
Depends on the location of the property. But at the very least, it needs to be free of clutter and trash, it needs to have been professionally cleaned or cleaned to that quality. Flooring and paint go a long way in making a rental feel refreshed.
We can usually schedule to come out to take photos, do a walk-through and take keys within 24-48 hours. We prefer to take photos when the property is completely empty and move-in ready and can generally get a listing online within 24-48 hours of taking photos.
IOur property management contract can be used for both tenant placement and property management. Our property management fee is tied together with rent collection, so if we aren’t collecting rent through our platform then we aren’t charging our property management fee.
