I am writing to address an urgent matter regarding the return of my prepaid rent and security deposit for the property located at [Address of Rental Property]. As a tenant, it is my right to receive the full amount of these funds upon termination of my lease agreement, as per the laws and regulations in place in Thornton, Colorado. First and foremost, I would like to remind you of our mutual obligations as defined in the lease agreement. According to the terms, I prepaid a specific amount of rent to cover the rental period from [Start Date] to [End Date]. Additionally, at the start of my tenancy, I provided a security deposit of [Amount] for the purpose of protecting against any damages beyond normal wear and tear. Now that my lease agreement has ended, I have vacated the premises and returned the property in good condition. I would like to officially request the return of the prepaid rent and the security deposit to be made promptly, as required by the laws governing tenant-landlord relationships in Thornton, Colorado. It is crucial to note that Colorado state law (Warranty of Habitability Act) provides tenants with specific rights when it comes to the return of prepaid rent and security deposits. These funds are considered trust funds and should not be used for any other purpose. Failure to return these amounts is a violation of the landlord's obligations and may result in legal consequences. I kindly request that you adhere to the following actions: 1. Return of Prepaid Rent: Promptly return the prepaid rent amount of [Amount] that was paid for the rental period from [Start Date] to [End Date]. 2. Return of Security Deposit: Return the security deposit amount of [Amount] to me as soon as possible. Please provide a detailed itemization of any deductions made from the security deposit, if applicable, as required by law. 3. Compliance with State Laws: Please ensure your actions comply with the provisions set forth in the Colorado Revised Statutes, particularly the sections dealing with the return of prepaid rent and security deposits. Failure to respond or act upon this request within the designated time frame would leave me with no choice but to explore further legal actions to ensure my rights as a tenant are upheld. I trust that we can resolve this matter amicably, without the need for legal involvement. However, should you fail to comply, I will have no choice but to seek legal representation to recover the owed amounts, which may include additional costs and damages as provided by the law. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to your prompt response within [Timeframe] days.
