I'm reaching out to you because I'd like to discuss lowering my monthly rent moving forward. I enjoy living here and would like to continue renting from you, but my financial circumstances have changed and a reduction in rent would be incredibly helpful for me.
Just contact your landlord and say you're happy living there and you'd be interested in signing a lease for another year (or words to that effect, in case you don't call it ``signing a lease'').
Suggest a specific new deadline or timeline that you believe is reasonable, showing that you have thought through your request. Thank your landlord for considering your request, and express your willingness to communicate further if needed. Make sure to include your contact information for any follow-up.
How do I fill this out? Enter your personal information at the top of the letter. Specify the rental property address and current lease expiration date. Propose a new lease end date and the prorated rent amount. Explain your reason for requesting the extension. Sign and date the letter before sending it.

I'm writing this letter to acknowledge my late rent for this month and explain my current financial situation. Last month, I was fired from my job at the local grocery store without notice. Since then, without my regular source of income, I have been struggling to make ends meet.
Close politely by thanking them for their consideration and expressing your hope to continue your tenancy without a rent increase. The key is to make a respectful, data-driven case for why keeping the rent flat would be mutually beneficial. Avoid demands or ultimatums, and focus on collaborating with the landlord.
When you write your own letter, include: names, dates, your address and signature. a description of the problems. background information if you already talked to the super or asked for repairs. a request for advance notice if they will come to your apartment, so you can plan.
So, is rent negotiable? For sure! But remember, your landlord or property manager is running a business, so it's your responsibility to convince them to lower your rent. Make sure to outline ways your negotiation benefits your landlord to build confidence and clarity during your conversation about getting cheaper rent.
