Clifton Property Management

Long-term rental management for Clifton homes, handled from our Grand Junction office.

Renting out a home in Clifton

Clifton is not a town. It is unincorporated Mesa County between Grand Junction and Palisade, so there is no town hall utility office. Water, sewer and trash each come from a different place. Here is how it fits together for a rental.

Where it isUnincorporated Mesa County

The Mesa County Clifton plan places Clifton in unincorporated Mesa County, between Grand Junction and Palisade. With no town government, water and sewer come from special districts.

WaterClifton Water District

Clifton Water District is a water district for the Clifton area. Its about page describes the boundary. On an Eclipse rental, we set up the water account, and the bill goes on the tenant's ledger.

SewerClifton Sanitation District

Many Clifton Water customers also get sewer service from the Clifton Sanitation District. Clifton Water sends one combined bill for both. See the district's sanitation page.

TrashNo town service

With no town government, there is no town trash service. Our Grand Junction move-in page lists Waste Management and Republic Services. Your lease says who sets up and pays for trash.

Electric and gasTenant sets these up

Xcel Energy provides gas. Electric comes from Xcel Energy or Grand Valley Power, depending on the address. The tenant sets these up in their own name before move-in.

Your officeGrand Junction

Our White Avenue office in Grand Junction manages Clifton homes, with the same team, the same pricing and the same Owner Portal.

First step for any Clifton rental

Because water and sewer come from districts, the first thing to confirm is which district serves your address and whether you get one combined bill. We set up the Clifton Water account ourselves, so we check this before a tenant moves in.

What we handle for Clifton owners

Marketing your rental on the big rental sites
Screening every applicant with background and financial checks
Collecting rent and sending your money by ACH
Lining up outside vendors for repairs and checking the work
Regular inspections, based on the plan you pick
Monthly statements in your Owner Portal
Handling an eviction the legal way, if it ever comes to that
Keeping your rental in line with Colorado law

For Clifton homes, that also means sorting out the water and sanitation district accounts and making sure the bills land on the tenant's ledger.

We manage long-term rentals only, not vacation or short-term rentals. We do not run our own maintenance crew. Independent local vendors do the work, and we coordinate it.
