Show Notes

Denver is considering raising the maximum fine for unlicensed rentals from $1,000 to $5,000. In this episode, we break down why the city wants the increase, how many landlords are still unlicensed, and what the data shows about enforcement since the rental license requirement began in 2023.

We cover how the current system works, why thousands of properties remain unlicensed, what the proposed change would do, and what landlords should expect if the higher fine is approved in 2025. If you’re a Denver landlord or watching this issue in your own city, this gives you the full context without the noise.
