Paula Haas – Co-Founder and Accounts Manager
I have been in the Real Estate industry for 22 years and counting. Lyle and I co-founded Colorado Realty & Property Management, Inc (CRPM) in 2006. My background is in mortgage loan origination and bookkeeping This gives me the advantage of being able to understand financial information, applications, credit reports, and the qualifying process for overseeing the screening process.
My role fits me perfectly with my experience and education, and my knack for logic and organization. I oversee all of the office operations, bookkeeping and administrative work. That means I work hard to keep our systems running smoothly, and our Clients and Tenants happy. We mean it when we say, “that we help to provide “peace of mind”!
It is my pleasure to work with our Owners, Tenants, Vendors and of course our wonderful staff. Being part of the CRPM team is being part of a family, as well as a company that genuinely cares.
When I’m not at the office I enjoy spending time with my husband camping, hiking, and walking our new puppy. My daughter and I share a passion together for health and have recently become avid yogis.

Taylor Haas – Business Development Manager/Leasing Coordinator
I am one of our new Business Development Managers and our Leasing Coordinator. I recently graduated from the University of Colorado, Boulder with a Bachelor’s Degree of Science in Business Administration, with a focus in Management Operations and Human Resources, and a minor in Spanish.
I have been working full time at CRPM for the past two years. Being Lyle and Paula Haas’s daughter, I grew up in the business and have been exposed to property management since the company was founded in 2006. I even worked in off-campus student housing for two years while attending the University. My plan is to carry on the family business someday!
I care deeply about both of my responsibilities here at CRPM. I love to bring on new business because I get to meet new people and build relationships. I also love leasing because I am instrumental in helping tenants find their new homes. Both responsibilities are equally rewarding and just perfect for my talents!
When I am not at the office, you can find me in a yoga studio, or coaching girls, youth club volleyball. I also enjoy skiing with my boyfriend, camping with my parents, trying new restaurants, and binge watching Grey’s Anatomy.
Renee Root, Business Development Manager
I love property management and real estate! It started at a young age when my grandfather would bring me to his rental properties on the weekend. My cousin and I would play “Realtor” and take turns showing the house. Then at just 10 years old, I took it upon myself to find homes that I thought would be suitable for our family and encourage my parents to “buy that one.” In my late teens, my family began purchasing investment properties and I continued to learn even more about the process.
I started working at Colorado Realty and Property Management, Inc. as a Showing Assistant while attending the University of Colorado, Boulder.
I’ve since graduated from CU Boulder and moved into a new role with the company, as a Business Development Manager. I love being able to explain the leasing and management process to first time landlords or be a trusted reference for seasoned investors. I deeply care about guiding landlords to their best possible outcome and building relationships along the way.
When I’m not in the office, you can find me spending time with my family, trying local restaurants and exploring our beautiful state! My dream is to one day invest in real estate, just like the landlords I work for each day.
Danielle Christ – Property Maintenance Services Coordinator/ Team Leader
I was born and raised in Golden, Colorado. I currently live in the Arvada area with my amazing husband and my wonderful son. I have a large, very close family and I don’t know what I would do without my two great parents, three crazy sisters, and my awesome brother. I love them so much!
I originally started my career as a CNA. It was an incredible experience and one I will never forget. I learned a lot, made great friendships, and heard the most astounding life stories. Unfortunately, after a couple of years it took its toll on me and I decided I needed to make a change. Luckily, I found an awesome opportunity to be able to join the Colorado Realty and Property Management team.
Originally when I started at Colorado Realty and Property Management, I was the Move In – Move Out Coordinator. I was promoted the following year after I was hired to the Property Maintenance Services Coordinator. I was so excited, I couldn’t have been more happy! I worked hard and reached my goal!! I enjoy my job because it is challenging and always keeps me on my toes. I also love the person I have become and my second family at CRPM.
I enjoy doing things with my family, road trips, camping, yoga, and fishing. I also enjoy baking, singing and going to baseball games.
I strive for greatness and being a good team leader.
Go Broncos!
Ernie Martinez – Showing Assistant
I am a Denver, Colorado native! I graduated from Denver East High School and Adams State College. I have also been in the Real Estate Industry since 1970, a true veteran. During my many years of Real Estate experience, I have attended various Real Estate educational institutes and am certified in Property Management, HOA Management, Facilities Management and Apartment Management.
I am a Showing Assistant and one of the hardest working members of the team. I recently came out of retirement and am “back in the saddle” again showing our available properties to prospective tenants. I love my job, and my wife’s happy I’m working again too! Ha!
When I am not working I enjoy spending time with my family. My wife and I have been married for 36 years, and our seven children, fourteen grandchildren, and ten great grandchildren all live in Colorado too.
I love to bring my coworkers yummy goodies, and letting them joy-ride my Smart Car!
Billy Early
Two years ago, when I moved from my hometown of Tucson, AZ to Colorado I was happy to discover I had another great city to call home. After the ski industry brought me to the Mile High City, the people and atmosphere have kept me here!
I never would have thought that I’d be doing property management, especially after studying Business Management at the University of Arizona. Now, I couldn’t imagine being anywhere else. I admire the tight-knit group of hardworking people that really care about the work they do. It feels like family, and we treat our clients like family too! Even though I am new to the property management business, at CRPM I am able to use my extensive customer service and management experience to assist our tenants and owners, as well as my team members.
When I am not working with our maintenance team or checking up on properties, I am camping with my girlfriend and her family, or coaching youth sports. I love everything this beautiful state has to offer, and I look forward to the many more adventures to come.
Tanya Garcia, Client Services Specialist
I work primarily with the business development team. I am responsible for onboarding new clients. My responsibilities include management and organization of all onboarding documents, rental price research and recommendations, creating the property listings for Internet marketing, and weekly listing follow-up regarding the marketing activity of posted properties.
I am committed to doing the best that I can in everything I do and motivated by achieving great results. At CRPM our goal is to provide the best possible service to our clients. I honestly love working with people either by phone or in-person and making them happy makes me happy. Because I’m bilingual I’m able to assist our tenants and property owners that speak Spanish.
I enjoy traveling and exploring new places with my husband, going out to eat, and watching lots of shows on Netflix! I love animals and have 5 dogs and a cat.
