A Colorado property management agreement spells out the obligations and rights of a person or business contracted to look after another party’s property. The property manager will see that rent is paid, the property is in good order, security deposits are collected, and tenants are looked after. The contract will state how the manager will be compensated, usually by a flat rate or a portion of the monthly rent.
