COLORADO APARTMENT ASSOCIATION ANNOUNCES RESPONSE TO SCALING BACK THE 30-DAY NOTICE REQUIREMENT

DENVER (July 30, 2021) – Drew Hamrick, senior vice president and general counsel at the Colorado Apartment Association, released a statement in response to the 30-day notice requirement for tenants needing rental assistance.

“The Governor's scaling back of the 30-day notice requirement to only those tenants that can demonstrate they have submitted an application for emergency rental assistance in good faith is a reflection of the continuing strength and recovery of the Colorado rental market. Colorado rent payment rates remain strong and stable (97.2% of rent payments were made in June) and eviction rates remain at an all-time low level (66% of normal in June).  This continuing step back to full normalcy is good news for a healthy rental housing market.”
