Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Colorado

House rental

My renter left town and abandoned home before paying last months rent and left items behind. What steps do I need to take legally to stop the lease, change the locks and remove his items. Is there anyway to recover the non paid rent?

Re: House rental

If it is clearly abandoned, you may not need to file an eviction proceeding. As to your losses, you can certainly file a lawsuit to try to get the damages. This would require personal service, generally.

Good luck.
