Colorado Real Estate Lawyer Joe Stengel PC Forms Contracts Pen
From renting to buying and selling, there are Colorado real estate forms for every possible transaction.

What are the types of forms you should be aware of? That depends on what real estate transaction you are completing.

Check out these forms if you’re buying real estate, but if you’re selling real estate, you should be interested in these forms.

The Colorado Division of Real Estate’s forms are free, but they don’t address issues specific to any particular transaction. There are times when it is best to create specific documents for specific situations. If that is the case, you should contact a real estate attorney.
