Property ManagementIntermediateColorado Exam

In Colorado, a residential property manager who violates a tenant's right to quiet enjoyment by entering the unit repeatedly without proper notice may face:

AA. No consequence since the manager owns the property, a point that is frequently tested because it is easy to confuse with related but distinct concepts
BB. A claim by the tenant for breach of the covenant of quiet enjoyment, potential actual and statutory damages, and possible license disciplinary actionCorrect
CC. Only a verbal warning from the tenant
DD. Only a small fine from the county

Why B. A claim by the tenant for breach of the covenant of quiet enjoyment, potential actual and statutory damages, and possible license disciplinary action Is Correct

Answer B: B. A claim by the tenant for breach of the covenant of quiet enjoyment, potential actual and statutory damages, and possible license disciplinary action

The covenant of quiet enjoyment is an implied (and sometimes express) promise in every Colorado residential lease that the tenant will have peaceful possession without interference from the landlord. Repeated unauthorized entries violate this covenant and can result in the tenant claiming damages, potentially constructive eviction, and the landlord/manager facing license discipline for violating Colorado Commission rules.
