Denver's Ghost Tax: Will Empty Rentals Cost Landlords Big
Denver is considering a brand-new “Vacancy Tax,” also being called a “Ghost Tax,” aimed directly at landlords who leave their rentals empty. The idea is simple: if you keep a property vacant for too long, the city wants to charge you a fee. Supporters say it will push landlords to lower rents and bring more housing to market. Critics warn it could backfire, drive investment out of Denver, and ultimately hurt renters.
In this video, we break it all down:
- What the Vacancy Tax is and how it would work
- Why housing advocates are pushing for it
- How it compares to similar taxes in cities like San Francisco, Oakland, and Washington D.C.
- The potential impact on Denver landlords, renters, and the overall housing market
- Whether this “Ghost Tax” could actually lower rents — or just make the crisis worse
