Not many good choices. If you move because of the breach of a warranty of habitability (for no plumbing). Unfortunately, if your credit is not good it may be difficult to get a place and they will likely check with this landlord.

I would contact your local office of Colorado Legal Services and see if you qualify for free or reduced legal assistance. Good luck.
