Thank you all very much for your help in this matter. Trust me, going forward there will be.

Here is the portion of the lease that talks about written notice: "No notice to terminate at the end of the fixed term is necessary unless otherwise agreed to in writing. If a tenant remains on the property after expiration of the fixed lease term, with the permission of the landlord, tenant and...

I do, I am hoping the threat of not having an eviction on their record will be enough to get them to comply.

Potentially, I have a new set of tenants ready to take over, and if I understand the laws correctly I can keep their security deposit and recoup some of what is owed. I mean I know I can sue them but I am not sure if the cost of the chase is worth it at this point.

Keep in mind this is not an eviction. I am simply notifying them that I am not continuing the month to month lease agreement.

It hasn't happened yet. The tenant is behind on paying the rent and I plan to let them know on the 30th of this month that I want to end the lease and have them out by the 30th of November, I am just trying to make sure I do it appropriately.

What is the name of your state? Colorado I own a house and I rent it to tenants. In the lease agreement we agreed to lease for x months, and then month to month after that. Both parties agree to 30 days written notice to end the lease once it becomes month to month. What qualifies as "written...

Thank you all very much. I did decide to give them a small break on next month's rent and they were very appreciative. It is a not fun situation for all involved, that being said I greatly appreciate the information provided by everyone in this thread.

They said they normally keep the house at 70 and the portable units are only cooling to 75 and only in parts of the house. Not as of yet, I am just trying to prepare for the possibility. They are good tenants and we have a good relationship, I want to keep it that way. No one is losing...

What is the name of your state? Colorado I own a house and rent to tenants. They informed me that the AC was not keeping up so I sent a service company out to look at it. The service company called me and said that it needed some general maintenance which I authorized. They called me back and...

Because they are on a month to month lease. If one tenant wants to give notice should they not be able to? This seems like the simplest solution, then it is not my problem. Thank you all for your advice.

I don't see putting her in jail over it, but could I get a judgement against her in case she ever works and garnish child support in arrears?

It is complicated (I am sure it always is). Currently she does not work (she never has), the $341 figure was made assuming she worked minimum wage which, I understand it, is an assumption Colorado makes as a minimum figure for income. When we made the current agreement (about two years ago) my...

Right now she pays $80 a month for both "children". According to the guideline spreadsheet provided here: https://www.courts.state.co.us/Forms/Forms_List.cfm?Form_Type_ID=94 For one child she would be paying $341 a month.

What is the name of your state? Colorado Currently I have full physical custody of our two children (age 18 and 15) Mom pays a reduced amount of child support that was agreed to in mediation. Soon our 18 year old will be turning 19 and no longer subject to child support in the state of...
