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.

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 a true Colorado native, born and raised. Currently, I am a Senior at the University of Colorado, Boulder and working on a Bachelor’s Degree of Science in Business Administration, Management Operations and Human Resources with a minor in Spanish.
I struck gold when I found my place at Colorado Realty and Property Management, Inc. My love of people, healthy competition and communication landed me the perfect job. Business development and leasing are my expertise! Not only am I bringing on new customers and beefing up our portfolio, but I am also helping tenants find their dream homes and owners find the perfect tenants. My customer service background translates incredibly well to the hustle and bustle of the real estate world and allows me to excel in meeting our customer’s expectations and building lasting relationships. Talk about a dream job!
When I’m not bringing on new business or helping folks find their dream home, you can find me in the yoga studio getting my sweat and mental focus on, or coaching my youth, girls volleyball team. I also love eating, being outdoors, and spending time with family and friends.
Danielle Christ – Property Maintenance Services Coordinator
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!
Renee Root – Marketing Assistant
Though I started here at Colorado Realty and Property Management as a Showing Assistant, my studies at CU Boulder have led me to fall in love with advertising and marketing. Now I am able to apply what I learn in school as our Marketing Assistant! It is my job to make our content consistent across the internet and to brainstorm new ideas for the company.
I stay busy with school, my job, and being active in Greek life at CU but in my free time I love to spend time with my friends and family, explore Colorado, and binge watch Grey’s Anatomy!
Fun fact: My coworkers always make fun of how much I love Panda Express!
Kelse Lane – Assistant Bookkeeper
I am a Boulder native who is lucky to call this my home. I am a full-time CU student where I study International Economics and Spanish. After I graduate in May of 2018, I plan to become a CPA.
I am Paula’s Assistant at Colorado Realty and Property Management, Inc. (CRPM). Paula is our Accounts Manager and together, we work on all of the bookkeeping for our properties. This ranges from utility bills to security deposit dispositions. The Gemini inside of me loves the diversity day to day in the office. I am grateful for my opportunity to start my career here where I closely follow and learn the ropes from Paula.
When I leave the office you can find me teaching at the local yoga studio. I have been teaching vinyasa yoga for two years throughout Colorado. A perfect day for me would include a hike in our beautiful flatirons, jumping into a yoga class and then picking up some Palisade peaches from the farmers market.
I am excited to be part of the CRPM family!
