The Highlands Ranch Challenge
Unlike regular inherited properties, Highlands Ranch homes come with ongoing HRCA obligations. Dues keep accruing. Maintenance standards must be met. Violations can stack up on vacant properties. Managing this from 1,000 miles away is difficult.
Immediate Remote Actions
Contact HRCA Immediately
Call HRCA (303-791-2500) to report the ownership change. Get current dues status and any existing violations. This can be done by phone.
Arrange Basic Maintenance
HRCA enforces landscaping standards. Hire a lawn service to maintain the property and avoid violation notices. Many services can be arranged online.
Winterize the Property
Colorado winters require heat (minimum 55°F) to prevent frozen pipes. A property management company can check on this periodically.
Why Selling Quickly Often Makes Sense
For out-of-state heirs, holding a Highlands Ranch property has ongoing costs:
- • HRCA dues: Annual fees continue regardless of occupancy
- • Maintenance: Lawn care, snow removal, basic upkeep
- • Property taxes: Douglas County taxes are significant
- • Insurance: Vacant home coverage costs more
- • Risk: Unoccupied homes deteriorate and attract problems
Selling quickly stops the cash drain and eliminates remote management stress.
