Colorado: Security deposits

C.R.S. 38-12-102.5 (eff. Aug 7, 2023): deposit may not exceed two monthly rent payments. Returned within one month after termination (up to 60 days if the lease specifies) (C.R.S. 38-12-103(1)).

Colorado's deposit statutes (C.R.S. 38-12-101 to 104) do not require interest.

Colorado: Notices and tenancy endings

10 days' written demand for payment or possession for residential tenancies (C.R.S. 13-40-104(1)(d)); paying in full within the period cures.

C.R.S. 13-40-107 notice-to-quit varies by tenancy length: 1 year+ = 91 days; 6 months–1 year = 28 days; 1–6 months = 21 days; week-to-week/at will = 3 days. No notice for a fixed-term lease ending at a time certain.

Court listed in the supplied dataset: County Court (Forcible Entry and Detainer; District Court has concurrent jurisdiction).

Colorado: Rent regulation

C.R.S. 38-12-301: no county or municipality may control rent on private residential property (limited affordable-housing exceptions).
