Palisade Property Management

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

Renting out a home in Palisade

In Palisade, the Town itself runs the drinking water and the sewer, and trash can ride on the same bill. That makes the paperwork simpler than in some parts of the valley, with a few rules worth knowing.

Water and sewerTown of Palisade

The Town runs the public water system and treats the wastewater. Both are billed by the Town. See the Town utilities page.

Trash and recyclingWaste Management

Waste Management trash and recycling can be added to the Town utility bill, if you choose. To add, change or end trash service, you go through the Town. Waste Management handles missed pickups and bulky items.

Changing handsAsk for a final read

When an account changes hands, the Town asks for a final meter read request at least a day before the closing. The form is on the Town's website.

Digging in townRight of way permit

If you plan to upgrade the utility lines to your home and need to break the ground in town, the Town asks for a Right of Way Permit before the work starts.

BackflowCertified testers

The Town is in charge of protecting the drinking water from backflow and cross connections. It posts a list of certified backflow testers. If your rental ever needs a test, we can schedule an outside tester.

Your officeGrand Junction

Palisade sits east of Grand Junction. Our White Avenue office in Grand Junction manages Palisade homes, with the same team and the same Owner Portal.

Electric, gas and streetlights

Xcel Energy provides gas. Electric comes from Xcel Energy or Grand Valley Power, depending on the address, and your tenant puts it in their own name. Streetlight outages go to Xcel Energy, not the Town. The Town also runs a leaf pick up program. Check its page for the dates.

What we handle for Palisade 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 Palisade homes, that also means keeping the Town utility account in order when a tenant moves in or out.

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.
