Is Denver a Strong Short-Term Rental Market?

Denver remains one of the most resilient and high-demand markets in the Rocky Mountain West, balancing a booming tech economy with year-round tourism. As of 2026, the market has stabilized with a median home value of approximately $883,237, while the Short-Term Rental sector continues to thrive under a “primary residence only” regulatory model.

Why Denver is a Strategic Short-Term Rental Market:

  • Elite Revenue Potential: Well-positioned properties achieve an average annual revenue of $39,700, with luxury listings and larger homes frequently exceeding $70,000 annually.

  • High-Value “Entire Home” Demand: Over 86% of Denver’s 3,500+ active listings are for entire homes or apartments, as guests consistently prioritize privacy and space over shared lodging.

  • Year-Round Stability: Unlike seasonal mountain towns, Denver maintains a robust 65% average occupancy rate fueled by major events, professional sports, and a constant flow of business travelers.

  • Regulatory Moat: Denver’s strict requirement that all STRs be the host’s primary residence limits commercial saturation and preserves high nightly rates for compliant homeowners.

  • Peak Seasonal Performance: July remains the strongest month for revenue, with monthly earnings often climbing toward $4,700 for high-performing units.

For investors willing to operate thoughtfully, Denver offers the potential for strong seasonal rates paired with lower entry costs than many Front Range mountain towns.

Local Regulations

How We Help

Short-term rentals in Denver are regulated by city-specific ordinances. Navigating this process can be time-consuming, but we handle it all for you.

Our team stays up to date on STR regulations and helps ensure:

  • You must obtain a valid STR license (primary residence only)
  • Homes must meet safety and zoning standards
  • You must collect and remit Denver’s lodging and sales taxes
  • Strict enforcement of noise, trash, and parking ordinances

Who Denver Is Best Suited For

Denver is an excellent fit for:

  • Homeowners who live on-site for at least 183 days a year and want to maximize the value of a basement suite, accessory dwelling unit (ADU), or their entire home while traveling.

  • Properties located in “walkable urban” hubs like RiNo, Highland, and Sloan’s Lake command the highest nightly rates and occupancy levels in the city.

  • Owners seeking a tech-forward guest base; 2026 data shows that Gen Z and millennial travelers in Denver prioritize seamless tech, fast responses, and pet-friendly environments.

  • Investors focused on compliance-first strategies, where AirSimplicity manages the complex 2026 requirements, including the mandatory $1,000,000 liability insurance and annual $100 business license renewals.

Denver is less suitable for out-of-state investors seeking non-owner-occupied secondary homes, as the city strictly audits residency records, including driver’s licenses and voter registrations, to enforce its primary residence mandate.
