: Home located in Colorado. Home was repossed in Foreclosure. There was some property damage in the home, burns to the carpet and some holes in the walls and doors. Can the lender take action against me in small claims court for carpet replacement and other repairs to the home?

Joseph,
Your property damage description is a little too sketchy when you use the word “some” to describe the number of carpet burns and the number of holes there are in the walls and doors.
If the damage is excessive and the estimate cost to repair is high you might see some retaliatory action taken by the lender, especially if the lender ends up with the property for lack of any bidders at the foreclosure auction.
