Partnership Positions Company for Responsible Growth While Strengthening Housing Solutions Across Colorado’s Mountain Communities

BRECKENRIDGE, CO, CO, UNITED STATES, August 18, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Fortunato Properties today announced two significant milestones that reinforce the company’s long-term commitment to Colorado’s mountain communities: recognition on the Inc. 5000 list of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies for the second consecutive year and the formation of a strategic partnership with Trigran Ventures to support responsible, long-term growth.
The partnership with Trigran Ventures provides Fortunato Properties with additional capital and strategic resources to thoughtfully expand into new mountain markets while deepening its presence in Summit and Park counties. Fortunato will continue operating under its existing leadership team, with a shared focus on delivering exceptional leasing and property management services and preserving the high-touch client experience that has defined the business since its founding.
“Being recognized on the Inc. 5000 for a second consecutive year reflects the trust our clients place in us and the dedication of our entire team,” said Jonathan Jones, Chief Executive Officer of Fortunato Properties. “Equally important is what comes next. Our partnership with Trigran Ventures allows us to grow intentionally investing in our people, our technology, and the communities we serve without compromising the personalized service our clients expect. As available and affordable housing continues to be one of the most important challenges facing mountain communities, we’re committed to being a stable, long-term partner for property owners, employers, municipalities, and residents.”
Unlike many private equity transactions focused on rapid expansion or consolidation, the partnership is centered on sustainable growth, operational excellence, and continued investment in local markets. Fortunato plans to expand services into additional Colorado mountain communities, leveraging the capabilities developed over the last 10+ years in its core Summit County market, while increasing operational support and local resources across its existing customer base.
“Fortunato Properties has built an outstanding reputation through disciplined execution, exceptional customer service, and a genuine commitment to the communities it serves,” said Ben Russell, Partner at Trigran Ventures. “We view this as a true partnership. Our role is to support management with the resources and strategic expertise needed to accelerate growth while preserving the culture and client-first approach that has made Fortunato successful. We believe there is significant opportunity to expand the company’s impact across Colorado’s mountain markets.”
The announcement follows another year of strong growth across residential leasing and property management, workforce housing, maintenance, and homeowner services, reflecting increasing demand for professional housing management that serves both year-round residents and seasonal needs.
As Fortunato enters its next phase of growth, its mission remains unchanged: trusted property management that strengthens mountain communities and supports individuals, businesses, municipalities, and property owners.
