What we know about renting in Lakewood

Every line here is checked against a named source. Nothing on this page was written for a different town and had the name swapped.

  • FACT

    Lakewood's Rental Housing Safety Program requires every rental in the city to register with the city each year and pass an inspection every five years. Passing earns a Certificate of Compliance good for five years; a Rental Business License is issued annually.

The turnover, start to finish

A turnover is one job to us, not four. The unit gets trashed out and the load hauled the same day. The walks, driveway, siding and patio get pressure washed. The yard gets cut, edged and cleared. Then you get a set of photos on your phone and the unit is ready to show. You do not have to drive over.

Lakewood requires every rental to be registered and inspected every five years, and that inspection is about the building. Tenants inspect the outside, from the sidewalk, before they ever call. A clean walk and a clean driveway rent the place. A green one does not.

Property managers with a portfolio get volume pricing and a standing slot. Tell us how many doors and where they are, and we will build the schedule around your turnover dates.

Four powers. One phone number...

Rental turnovers, garage and estate cleanouts, junk hauled the same day, photos sent. More

Your move, citizen...

Text a photo of the worst part.

Seriously, the grossest corner of the driveway, the mossiest slope of the roof, the garage you can't park in. That's all it takes to get a number. The Moss is counting on you not sending it.
