The short answer is yes. The long answer is it is more difficult. In Colorado, landlords can initiate an eviction process not only for non-payment of rent but also for other violations of the lease agreement that are unrelated to monetary issues. These non-monetary lease violations can include a wide range of issues, such as:
Unauthorized Pets
Property Damage
Unauthorized Occupants
Illegal Activities
Nuisance or Disturbance
So, depending on the facts of your case and your lease agreement would determine if you can evict for a non-monetary based reason. Non-monetary evictions can be more challenging to enforce compared to rent-based evictions, as the courts will carefully review whether the lease violation justifies eviction and whether the landlord has followed all procedural requirements. It’s important to document the violation thoroughly and to ensure that your actions comply with Colorado’s eviction laws.
