Notice to Landlord 

A landlord is considered to have notice of an unsafe condition if there is any written documentation that, after reading, a reasonable person would know an unsafe condition exists or may exist.

Here are a few examples:  

• A letter from a government entity about the condition

• A notice from a third party regarding the condition (i.e. former tenant, contractor, etc)

• A letter from a different about the same issue that could impact multiple tenants

• A tenant's written communication with maintenance staff or a maintenance service arranged by the landlord, including services provided by a third party;

• Written observations or reports that the landlord has received, whether directly or indirectly, or

• Written notification from the tenant about the condition, sent in a way that the landlord usually uses to communicate with the tenant.  For more information, see Colo. Rev. Stat. § 38-12-503(3)(e).
