Frequently Asked Questions

Understanding Fractional Estate Management

Fractional estate management is still a relatively new concept. Many homeowners have never heard the term—they just know they need help managing their property, but aren't sure what options exist between DIY and hiring full-time staff.

Below are answers to the questions we hear most often. If you have a question not covered here, call Andrew directly at 303-807-9577.

What is fractional estate management, and how is fractional estate management different from regular property management?

Traditional property management focuses primarily on rental properties, tenant relations, and rent collection. Services are typically reactive, maintenance is basic, and you are one of hundreds of properties managed by the company.

Fractional estate management focuses on owner-occupied luxury residences. Services are proactive and comprehensive, including sophisticated system monitoring, premium vendor coordination, project management, and personalized concierge services. You work directly with your estate manager, who knows your property intimately.

Traditional property managers address problems after they occur. Estate managers prevent problems before they happen through systematic oversight and proactive maintenance.

Traditional property management companies serve landlords and tenants—their focus is rental properties, tenant screening, rent collection, and lease management.

Estate management serves homeowners directly. We manage your property for your benefit: ensuring your home functions flawlessly, maintaining its condition and value, coordinating contractors, and providing the oversight that allows you to enjoy your property rather than manage it.

Property management: For landlords who own rental properties

Estate management: For homeowners who live in (or vacation in) their properties

What does "fractional" mean in terms of actual time commitment?

Fractional refers to utilizing a portion of an estate manager's time rather than employing someone full-time. For most clients, this translates to 10-20 hours per month depending on property size, complexity, and needs.

A typical arrangement might include:

  • Bi-weekly property inspections (2-3 hours each)

  • Vendor coordination and oversight (2-4 hours weekly)

  • Administrative tasks and communication (2-3 hours weekly)

  • Emergency response and availability (as needed)

The advantage of the fractional model is flexibility—services scale up during intensive periods (renovations, seasonal preparation) and scale down when needs are lighter (extended travel, quieter months).

How is this different from hiring a full-time estate manager?

Full-Time Estate Manager Costs:

  • Annual Salary: $120,000-$250,000+

  • Benefits, Taxes, Insurance: Additional 30-40%

  • Potential Housing Allowance

  • Human Resources Administration and Management

  • Total Annual Investment: $100,000-$200,000+

Fractional Estate Management Costs:

  • Monthly Retainer: $2,000-$5,000

  • No Benefits, Taxes, or HR Burden

  • Total Annual Investment: $24,000-$60,000

  • Identical Expertise and Oversight

  • Cost Savings: 50-70%

The fractional model provides the same level of expertise and oversight without the overhead of a full-time employee. For most luxury homeowners, this delivers everything they require at a fraction of the cost.

ABOUT OUR SERVICES

What is included in your monthly fee?

The monthly retainer covers:

  • Scheduled property inspections (frequency based on your service tier)

  • Detailed photographic documentation and reporting

  • All vendor coordination and scheduling

  • Routine maintenance oversight

  • System monitoring (HVAC, irrigation, security, etc.)

  • Emergency response and availability

  • Seasonal preparation coordination

  • Administrative tasks and communication

  • Consultation and recommendations

Consider the retainer as covering my time and expertise. Actual service costs (contractor invoices, repair work, etc.) are separate and billed directly by vendors or passed through at cost.

What costs are additional beyond the monthly fee?

The monthly retainer covers estate management services that are based on the scale of the property and the client's desired level of service, which is determined in the discovery phase. Additional costs include:

Contractor and Vendor Services: HVAC repairs, landscaping, housekeeping, etc. These are either billed directly by vendors or passed through at actual cost with no markup. Or additional time spent with vendors onsite to ensure satisfactory work and security/peace of mind for our clients.

Large Projects: Major renovations or construction projects may require additional project management time beyond the monthly retainer, which we discuss and agree upon before starting.

Emergency Response: Emergency calls during off-hours are included, but extensive emergency work (exceeding three hours) may incur additional charges.

Supplies and Materials: Any property supplies, materials, or equipment purchased on your behalf.

Pricing is always transparent. You will know what is included in your retainer and what is additional before any work begins.

Do you charge commissions on vendor services?

No. I do not mark up contractor invoices or accept commissions from vendors. This is important because it means my recommendations are based solely on what is best for your property, not on what generates the highest fee for me.

Vendor invoices either go directly to you. My compensation comes from your monthly retainer for estate management services, keeping incentives properly aligned.

Can I scale services seasonally or as needs change?

Absolutely. Service flexibility is one of the primary advantages of fractional estate management.

Common adjustments include:

  • During Renovations: Scale up to weekly visits for active project oversight

  • During Extended Travel: Maintain regular inspections while you are away

  • During Seasonal Transitions: Increase oversight during winter preparation or spring opening

  • During Quiet Periods: Reduce to monthly visits when needs are minimal

We review your service level quarterly and adjust as needed. Your needs change throughout the year—your service should adapt accordingly. Fractional estate management provides professional estate oversight without the cost of full-time staff. Think of it as having a dedicated estate manager who serves multiple households rather than working exclusively for one family.

You receive the expertise, contractor relationships, and systematic property oversight that a full-time estate manager provides—but scaled to your property's actual needs and at a fraction of the cost.

How is this different from property management?

Traditional property management companies serve landlords and tenants—their focus is rental properties, tenant screening, rent collection, and lease management.

Estate management serves homeowners directly. We manage your property for your benefit: ensuring your home functions flawlessly, maintaining its condition and value, coordinating contractors, and providing the oversight that allows you to enjoy your property rather than manage it.

Property management: For landlords who own rental properties

Estate management: For homeowners who live in (or vacation in) their properties

How is this different from hiring a full-time estate manager?

A full-time estate manager works exclusively for one family, typically at a salary of $120,000-$250,000+ annually plus benefits. This makes sense for very large estates or families with multiple properties requiring daily attention.

Fractional estate management provides similar expertise and oversight at a fraction of the cost—appropriate for homeowners who need professional management but don't require (or can't justify) full-time dedicated staff.

Who typically uses fractional estate management?

Our clients generally fall into several categories:

  • Busy professionals whose careers leave no time for property coordination

  • Frequent travelers who need oversight during absences

  • Second-home owners who aren't present to manage their property

  • Family offices seeking local oversight for properties in their portfolio

  • New homeowners are unfamiliar with managing complex properties

  • Owners of historic homes requiring specialized care

What they share: successful careers or circumstances that demand their attention elsewhere, and properties that require more oversight than they can provide themselves.

What size or value of home do you typically work with?

We typically work with properties valued at $1,000,000 and above, though property complexity matters more than value alone. A $2,000,000 home on two acres with complex mechanical systems and extensive landscaping may require more management than a $3 million home on a small urban lot.

The determining factors are:

  • Property complexity (acreage, outbuildings, special features, complex mechanical systems)

  • System sophistication (smart home, multi-zone HVAC, irrigation complexity, fine finishes, domestic staff)

  • Owner availability (travel frequency, career demands)

  • Owner expertise (familiarity with property management)

What services do you provide?

Our services adapt to each property's needs, but typically include:

Regular Property Inspections

  • Bi-weekly or monthly walkthroughs

  • System checks (HVAC, irrigation, security, etc.)

  • Issue identification before problems become emergencies

  • Photo documentation and detailed reports

Contractor Coordination

  • Vetting, Scheduling, and overseeing all service providers

  • Obtaining competitive bids for projects

  • Quality verification of completed work

  • Vendor relationship management

Preventative Maintenance

Emergency Response

  • 24/7 availability for property emergencies

  • Immediate contractor dispatch when needed

  • Decision-making authority to protect your property

  • Communication throughout any emergency

Specialized Services (as needed)

  • New construction warranty management

  • Estate Manual creation

  • Historic property preservation oversight

  • Equestrian facility coordination

  • Smart home system management

  • HOA compliance and communication

Do you handle landscaping and lawn care?

We coordinate and oversee landscaping services—we don't perform the physical work ourselves. This includes:

  • Identifying and vetting reliable landscape contractors

  • Scheduling regular maintenance

  • Overseeing work quality

  • Managing irrigation systems

  • Coordinating seasonal services (aeration, fertilization, etc.)

  • Handling any issues that arise

Our role is oversight and coordination, ensuring your property receives consistent, quality care.

Can you manage my property while I travel?

Absolutely—this is one of our most common services. For traveling clients, we provide:

  • Increased inspection frequency during absences

  • Mail and package management

  • Pre-arrival property preparation (heat/AC adjustment, fresh flowers, stocked basics)

  • Emergency response capability

  • Regular photo reports so you can see your property's condition from anywhere

  • Post-return walkthrough to address anything that arose

Many clients travel extensively for work and tell us that the peace of mind during travel is the most valuable service we provide.

Do you work with historic properties?

Yes. We have extensive experience with historic homes throughout Boulder, Denver, and the surrounding areas. Historic properties require:

  • Understanding of period construction methods and materials

  • Relationships with specialized craftspeople

  • Knowledge of appropriate restoration techniques

  • Sensitivity to preservation concerns

  • Navigation of historic district requirements (where applicable)

Our contractor network includes specialists in plaster repair, historic window restoration, period millwork, and other specialized trades essential for proper historic property care.

Do you work with equestrian properties?

Yes. Niwot, Longmont, and other areas we serve feature significant equestrian properties. Our equestrian services include:

  • Barn and stable maintenance oversight

  • Fence inspection and repair coordination

  • Pasture rotation and health management

  • Arena maintenance

  • Coordination with farriers, veterinarians, and other equine professionals

  • Manure management

  • Water system oversight for livestock

We understand that equestrian facilities require specialized knowledge beyond typical residential property management.

What areas do you serve?

We provide estate management services throughout Colorado's Front Range, including:

Do you serve properties outside Colorado?

Yes! We support our clients' properties wherever they are, but our services are focused on Colorado's Front Range, where our contractor relationships, local knowledge, and proximity allow us to provide the level of oversight our clients expect.

For clients with properties in multiple states, we can coordinate with estate managers or service providers in other locations, but our direct management services are Colorado-based. Nationwide and International consultation is always available.

How do I get started?

The process begins with a complimentary property assessment:

  1. Initial conversation: We discuss your property, situation, and needs by phone

  2. Property walkthrough: We visit your property to understand its specific characteristics

  3. Proposal: We provide a customized proposal based on your property's needs

  4. Decision: You decide if we're the right fit (no pressure, no obligation)

  5. Onboarding: We conduct comprehensive property documentation and begin service

  6. For straightforward properties, I can typically begin active management within 2-3 weeks of our initial consultation. This allows time for:

For complex properties or those requiring significant vendor vetting and setup, initial onboarding may require 3-4 weeks. I prefer to invest the time to establish things correctly rather than rush and miss important details.

What does onboarding look like?

During the complimentary assessment, we:

  • Walk through your entire property (including outbuildings, grounds, and any specialized features)

  • Discuss your specific concerns, needs, and priorities

  • Evaluate current systems (HVAC, irrigation, security, etc.)

  • Review any HOA requirements or special considerations

  • Discuss your schedule, travel patterns, lifestyle, and communication preferences

  • Answer all your questions about fractional estate management

  • Provide a proposal that accurately reflects the unique needs of each client, that entails a monthly retainer with all additional costs laid out clearly.

The assessment typically takes 60-90 minutes, depending on property size and complexity.

Week 1: Property Assessment

Week 2: Planning and Setup

  • Custom service plan creation

  • Inspection schedule establishment

  • Communication preferences confirmation

  • Emergency protocol setup

Weeks 3-4: Vendor Network and Documentation

  • Evaluation of current vendors (if any)

  • Introduction of vetted service providers as needed

  • Digital estate manual creation

  • Calendar and scheduling coordination

Month 2: Active Management Begins

  • Regular inspection schedule commences

  • Photographic reporting implemented

  • Ongoing communication established

  • Fine-tuning based on early observations

How much of my time is required?

Minimal—that is the entire purpose. Most clients spend:

  • Initial Consultation: 60-90 minutes for property walkthrough

  • Onboarding Conversations: 2-3 hours total over the first month

  • Ongoing Involvement: 30-60 minutes monthly, reviewing reports and approving recommendations

You remain as involved as you prefer. Some clients desire detailed weekly updates and wish to discuss every decision. Others prefer a "handle it and inform me if anything important arises" approach. I adapt to your preferred communication style and involvement level.

The objective is to reclaim your time, not create another obligation. Most clients report reclaiming 10-15 hours monthly that they previously spent on property management tasks.

How do you communicate with clients?

We adapt to your preferences, but typical communication includes:

After Every Inspection:

  • Detailed photographic report via email (usually same day)

  • Summary of property status

  • Any issues identified

  • Recommendations and proposed actions

For Routine Matters:

  • Email updates about scheduled services

  • Text messages for quick updates or questions

  • Photographs of completed work

For Significant Issues:

  • Telephone call to discuss and obtain approval

  • Detailed explanation of options and costs

  • Follow-up documentation in writing

For Emergencies:

  • Immediate telephone call

  • I will take necessary action to protect the property

  • Keep you updated throughout the resolution

You will have my cellular telephone number and can reach me directly at any time.

What does a typical inspection include?

A comprehensive property inspection typically requires 1-3 hours (depending on property size) and includes:

Exterior Inspection:

  • Property perimeter walkthrough

  • Roof visual inspection (from ground level)

  • Gutters and drainage systems

  • Exterior lighting functionality

  • Deck, patio, and outdoor structure condition

  • Driveway, walkways, and hardscaping

  • Fencing and gates

  • Landscape health and irrigation performance

Interior Inspection:

  • All rooms walkthrough

  • HVAC system check (temperatures, sounds, performance)

  • Plumbing check (visible leaks, water pressure, drainage)

  • Electrical systems (any tripped breakers, lighting issues)

  • Appliance functionality

  • Window and door operation

  • Signs of moisture, leaks, or pest activity

  • Air quality and overall property condition

The initial assessment is complimentary and carries no obligation. It's simply an opportunity to determine if fractional estate management makes sense for your situation.

What if there's an emergency?

We provide 24/7 emergency response for our clients. When an emergency occurs:

  1. We respond immediately (or as quickly as safely possible)

  2. We assess the situation and take immediate protective action

  3. We contact you to discuss the situation and options

  4. We coordinate emergency contractors as needed

  5. We oversee repairs and restoration

  6. We document everything for insurance purposes, if applicable

Our established contractor relationships mean we can mobilize help quickly—we're not starting from scratch, finding a plumber at midnight.

COST QUESTIONS

How much does fractional estate management cost?

Pricing is customized based on property characteristics and service needs. Factors include:

  • Property size and complexity

  • Acreage and grounds

  • Number and type of outbuildings

  • System sophistication

  • Inspection frequency needed

  • Owner travel patterns

  • Lifestyle needs

  • Special requirements (equestrian, historic, etc.)

We provide detailed proposals after the property assessment so you understand exactly what's included.

Generally, fractional estate management costs a fraction of what full-time staff would cost while providing professional-level oversight appropriate for most luxury properties.

Is there a long-term contract?

No. We don't require long-term contracts. We believe our service should earn your continued business through results, not contractual obligation.

After an initial 90-day period (which allows us to fully understand your property and establish service patterns), either party can end the relationship with 30 days' notice.

Most clients stay with us for years—not because they're locked in, but because the service delivers value.

What's included vs. what costs extra?

Our management retainer fee covers:

  • All scheduled property inspections

  • Communication and reporting

  • Vendor relationship management

  • Agreed upon number of hours per month that allows for additional time needed to immediately address issues seen while on-site for regular walkthroughs. The very nature of a luxury home with scale and complexity means that things always come up, and we would prefer to address as much of this within the monthly retainer, so clients don't receive a lot of "extras" on their invoices every month.

Costs passed through to you (at our contractor's rates, with no markup):

  • Actual contractor work (landscaping, repairs, maintenance)

  • Additional time on site for attending to contractors or other service providers that require oversight incurs additional billing at an agreed-upon hourly rate and is billed monthly with complete transparency regarding time and documentation.

  • Materials and supplies

  • Specialized services (pool care, pest control, etc.)

We don't mark up contractor costs or take referral fees.

TRUST AND SECURITY QUESTIONS

How do you handle access to my property?

Property access is handled with the security and discretion you'd expect:

  • We maintain keys or access codes as appropriate for your property

  • All access is logged and documented

  • We coordinate contractor access, ensuring authorized personnel only

  • Security systems are respected and maintained

  • We can work within any existing security protocols you have

For clients with security staff or monitoring services, we coordinate seamlessly with existing arrangements.

How do you vet contractors?

Our contractor network is built on years of relationships and proven performance:

  • We only work with licensed, insured contractors

  • We verify references and check previous work

  • We observe work quality over time before recommending contractors for major projects

  • We replace any contractor who fails to meet our standards

  • We maintain backup options for all critical services

When we recommend a contractor, it's because we've seen their work and trust their quality.

What about confidentiality?

We maintain strict confidentiality regarding:

  • NDA signed as requested

  • All client personal and financial information

  • Property details and security arrangements

  • Family information and schedules

  • Any information shared in the course of our work

All of our clients are high-profile individuals who expect and receive complete discretion. We never discuss one client's property with another, and we never share information outside what's necessary for service provision.

Who is Andrew H. Beardsley?

Andrew Beardsley founded Colorado Estate Management in 2025 after recognizing a gap in the market: successful professionals needed property oversight beyond what traditional property management provided, but couldn't justify (or didn't need) full-time estate staff.

With experience as a Director of Residences working with UHNW families since 2011, Andrew brings institutional-level property management expertise to Colorado homeowners who need professional oversight without full-time expense.

Andrew also co-founded the Colorado Private Estate Network (CPEN), which hosts networking events for private service professionals throughout Colorado.

Why did you start Colorado Estate Management?

As a Director of Residences, I often needed to hire traditional property management companies for properties that didn't justify full-time staff. The problem? Property managers serve landlords—not homeowners. They're built for rental properties, not luxury residences.

Fractional estate management closes this gap: providing the expertise families deserve for their homes without the cost of full-time dedicated staff.

How long have you been doing this?

Colorado Estate Management has served Front Range homeowners and beyond since 2011—over 14 years of experience with Colorado properties, contractors, and the specific challenges our climate and communities present.

Who we serve

All of our clients are high-profile individuals who expect and receive complete discretion. We never discuss one client's property with another, and we never share information outside what's necessary for service provision.

Can you coordinate with our existing household staff?

Absolutely. We work seamlessly with existing household staff, executive assistants, personal assistants, and other team members. Our role is to complement your existing arrangements—not replace trusted relationships. We can serve as the property oversight layer that coordinates all residential services, or we can focus specifically on areas where you need additional support.

How do you work with family offices?

Family offices oversee complex portfolios including multiple residences. You need a trusted local partner who can provide Director of Residences-level oversight without the full-time cost, and who understands the standards your principals expect.

  • Institutional-quality reporting and documentation

  • Seamless coordination with your existing team (household staff, executive assistants, property managers in other locations)

  • Multi-property oversight across Colorado's Front Range

  • Smart home system management (Control4, Lutron, Savant, Crestron)

  • Irrigation controller optimization and landscape maintenance oversight

  • Complete property oversight during travel

  • Coordinating with qualified integrators for system optimization

  • Troubleshooting common issues

  • Ensuring systems are properly updated

  • User training so you can maximize your investment

  • Vendor coordination when repairs or upgrades are needed

We understand these systems and can serve as your liaison with technology providers.

How do you support out-of-state property owners?

Your Colorado property is a retreat, a future retirement home, or an investment. You visit quarterly or seasonally but need year-round oversight. Problems accumulate during your absence—and you often don't know until you arrive.

We provide:

  • Weekly property inspections with detailed photo documentation

  • Freeze prevention and winterization protocols

  • Coordination with tenant farmers, caretakers, or other local contacts

  • Pre-arrival preparation (heat adjusted, water tested, fresh flowers, stocked basics)

  • Emergency response capability—we're your local presence

How do you prepare the property before my visits?

Pre-arrival preparation ensures your property is perfect when you arrive:

  • Fresh flowers and basic provisions (if requested)

  • Mail and package organization

  • Property walkthrough to identify and address any issues

  • Verification that all systems are functioning properly

  • Coordination with housekeeping for cleaning before arrival

You arrive at a home that's ready to enjoy—not a checklist of problems to address.

How does fractional estate management benefit luxury builders?

We provide:

  • Comprehensive warranty period management protects your reputation

  • Establishment of reliable ongoing maintenance relationships

  • Professional coordination between homeowners and your team for warranty items

How does fractional estate management benefit luxury realtors and their clients?

Your clients are investing in significant properties. They trust your recommendation. But once they close, many struggle with the realities of managing complex homes—especially if they're relocating to Colorado.

We provide:

  • A trusted referral for clients who need property management expertise

  • Smooth transition for relocating clients unfamiliar with Colorado contractors and conditions

  • Protection of their investment (and your referral relationship) through professional oversight

  • You remain the trusted advisor—we complement your relationship, not replace it

  • Your clients receive expert property oversight from day one

  • You have a resource to recommend when clients ask, "Who can help me manage this property?"

Contact us to discuss how we can support your clients.

Do you work with clients who are preparing properties for sale?

Yes. We can help prepare properties for the market by:

  • Identifying and coordinating necessary repairs and improvements

  • Managing contractor work to maximize showing readiness

  • Ensuring the property presents perfectly during the listing period

  • Coordinating with staging companies and photographers

  • Maintaining the property between showings

A well-maintained property shows better and sells faster.

How do I know if I need Estate Management?

You might benefit from fractional estate management if:

  • You spend weekends coordinating contractors instead of enjoying your property

  • Property concerns follow you during business travel

  • You've received HOA notices about maintenance issues

  • Systems have failed because scheduled maintenance was forgotten

  • You lack reliable contractor relationships in your area

  • Your property has features (acreage, equestrian, historic) requiring specialized knowledge

  • You're a new homeowner unfamiliar with your property's systems

  • You own a second or third home that sits vacant for extended periods

If property management feels like a second job you didn't sign up for, fractional estate management is the solution.

What if I already have a landscaper/pool service / other contractors?

We can work with your existing service providers if you're satisfied with their work. Our role is coordination and oversight—ensuring services are performed consistently and correctly, not necessarily replacing contractors you trust.

Often, we help optimize existing arrangements: ensuring landscapers and pool services communicate, scheduling work efficiently, and providing the oversight that catches issues before they become problems.

If existing providers aren't meeting standards, we can help you find better alternatives.

What if I'm not sure this is right for me?

That's exactly why we offer complimentary property assessments. The assessment allows us to:

  • Understand your specific situation

  • Evaluate whether our services would genuinely help

  • Provide honest guidance about your options

We'll tell you honestly if we don't think you need our services—or if a different solution would serve you better. Our goal is to help homeowners, not sell services that aren't needed.

No obligation. No pressure. Just an honest conversation about your property's needs.
