Disorderly Conduct By a Tenant in Colorado: What You Can Do as a Landlord

Tenants in Colorado rental properties expect a pleasant living experience and landlords expect renters to behave with decorum. When unruly tenants move into a rental, it can disrupt life for an entire neighborhood. On the other hand being accused of disorderly conduct is stressful. It can be hard to prove you weren't disruptive.

At Flaxman Law Group, we work both with Colorado tenants and landlords who are involved in landlord-tenant disputes over matters such as disorderly conduct. Whether you're in Boulder, Denver, or any community, you can contact us today.

Disorderly conduct is an umbrella term that covers behaviors that disturb the peace, such as making excessive noise, fighting, using obscene language, or displaying offensive signs. Depending on the severity and frequency of the offense, tenants who are disruptive could be fined, evicted, or even arrested.

There are many reasons why tenants may be accused of unruly conduct:

A tenant may have a one-time celebration

A renter's friends or family may visit and may become unruly

A renter may not know the terms of the lease or rules about noise in the neighborhood

Tenants may be in a dispute over politics or for other reasons, leading to accusations

Renters may sub-lease their apartment as a short-term rental, and vacationers may become unruly

Drugs or alcohol may cause unseemly behavior

A renter may have a loud hobby, such as fixing cars or playing a musical instrument

Tenants in an apartment or condo building may disagree about what levels of noise are acceptable

A tenant may be having an argument or personal crisis that leads to noise

A renter may have pets or small children who make some noise
