A Colorado lease termination letter is a legal document used to end various lease types. It provides different notice periods based on the length of the tenancy.
The termination date should comply with the notice period mandated by state laws. The landlord may initiate eviction proceedings if the tenant doesn’t vacate the property within the specified timeframe.
Governing Law: This form should not be used to terminate most residential leases and applies only to non-residential and certain limited residential leases described in Colorado Revised Statutes § 13-40-107. Instead, for termination of most residential tenancies, landlords should consult Form JDF 99B.
Required Notice Period:
- For Tenancies One Year or Longer: At least 91 days.
- For Tenancies Six Months to Less Than One Year: At least 28 days.
- For Tenancies One Month to Less Than Six Months: At least 21 days.
- For Tenancies One Week to Less Than One Month: At least 3 days.
- For Tenancies Less Than One Week: At least 1 day.
