Colorado Affidavit of Small Estate Form

Colorado is a Western US state famous for its diverse landscapes, deserts, and snow covered mountains. Colorado state law allows the heirs to collect and transfer the property of a decedent through an affidavit of heirship and small estate affidavit 10 days after the death of the owner. Colorado estate affidavit also called ‘Collection of Personal Property by Affidavit’ can be used only if the total value of the property of the decedent is less than $64,000. This affidavit saves the beneficiaries from a long probate process. The small estate affidavit is presented to the person who is in possession of the decedent’s property. After checking this document, it is obligatory upon the person holding the property to surrender it to the legal heirs.
