Colorado renters are learning this:
Renter protections work best before you apply.
Timing — not just knowing the rule — is what makes the law usable.

In renting, learning happens through repetition.
After a few applications, renters start recognizing patterns — and that recognition turns experience into capability.

Colorado’s new pricing transparency law and what it means for renters
For years, renters have dealt with pricing that felt incomplete or misleading. A rent number up top. A long list of add-ons buried later. Colorado’s new pricing transparency law aims to change that.

The PTSR law isn’t renter-first because it guarantees approval.
It’s renter-first because it:
– Limits duplicate fees
– Allows reuse of recent info
– Sets clearer expectations upfront
Guardrails > guarantees.

Quick clarification for Colorado renters
Portable tenant screening reports are still a 30-day tool under state law.
HB25-1236 did not extend the window to 60 days, that claim came from summaries, not the statute.
Facts matter when timing matters.

How misinformation turned Colorado’s 30-day PTSR rule into a 60-day myth
Colorado law still allows property managers to require that a portable tenant screening report be completed within the previous 30 days. HB25-1236 did not extend the validity window to 60 days.

Why screening fees exist (Colorado):
They’re meant to cover the cost of reviewing your info — not to be a barrier.
If you provide a valid portable screening report, managers usually can’t charge an application fee.
Process ≠ approval.

Approval depends on the property’s criteria.
