Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a written lease agreement in Colorado?
While oral agreements may be enforceable for short-term leases, Colorado law strongly favors written lease agreements. A written lease protects both landlord and tenant by clearly documenting terms, responsibilities, and required disclosures under the Colorado Residential Tenants Health and Safety Act and Security Deposit Act. Colorado requires landlords to include specific disclosures such as Lead-based paint (pre-1978, federal) and Landlord name and address (C.R.S. § 38-12-801), which must be in writing.
What are Colorado's security deposit rules?
In Colorado, there is no statutory limit on security deposits. Landlords must return the deposit within 30 days after the tenancy ends. Interest on security deposits is not required. Deductions must be itemized in writing.

Does Colorado allow local rent control?
Yes, as of 2021. Colorado repealed its longstanding ban on local rent stabilization, allowing municipalities to enact their own rent control measures. However, as of 2024, no major Colorado city has fully implemented rent control, though several are studying it. Colorado state law caps late fees at $50 or 5% of the monthly rent (whichever is greater) and requires a 10-day grace period before late fees can be charged.
