Property ManagementIntermediateColorado Exam

Under Colorado law, if a landlord accepts rent after a lease expires without a new agreement, the tenancy typically converts to:

AA tenancy at sufferance with no tenant rights
BA month-to-month tenancy on the same terms as the expired leaseCorrect
CA tenancy at will with no notice required for termination, in general
DA new 1-year tenancy by operation of law

Why A month-to-month tenancy on the same terms as the expired lease Is Correct

Answer B: A month-to-month tenancy on the same terms as the expired lease

When a landlord accepts rent after a fixed-term lease expires, this typically creates a holdover month-to-month tenancy on the same terms as the expired lease. Either party can terminate with proper notice.
