Colorado Roommate Agreement

Colorado tenants, if you are going to share rental accommodation with one or more other people, you need to sign a Roommate Agreement to put down in writing each person's rights and responsibilities.

• The landlord should also sign the Agreement.
• A departing roommate is responsible for finding a suitable replacement roommate, and for continuing to pay rent and utilities if he/she fails to find a replacement before vacating the premises.
• The Agreement contains alternate provisions for equal sharing of rent and expenses, or for each roommate to pay certain bills.
• Each roommate is responsible for complying with the tenant's responsibilities under the rental agreement.
• Each roommate is responsible for their own phone charges and for any long distance or other charges made by a guest of the roommate.
• If a roommate fails to pay rent or other charges on time, or is in breach of the rental agreement, the roommate's tenancy can be terminated.

This Colorado Roommate Agreement is provided in MS Word format, and is fully editable to fit your specific circumstances.
