Description

This form covers the subject matter described in the form's title for your State. This letter is written by a Tenant to Landlord requesting again that Landlord make repairs to leased premises that Tenant had previously requested. Tenant reserves the right to take legal action against Landlord including the right to sue for available relief. Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention the ongoing issue regarding the lack of repairs that have not been addressed in my rental property located in Syracuse, New York. Firstly, let me express my appreciation for your promptness in resolving previous maintenance concerns. However, as I am sure you are aware, there are several outstanding issues in my apartment that demand immediate attention. It is regrettable to inform you that despite previous requests, none of these problems have been fixed, which has begun to severely impact my comfort, safety, and overall well-being as a tenant in your property. To provide you with a comprehensive overview, I will outline the various repairs that require urgent attention: 1. Plumbing: The bathroom fixtures, including the sink, bathtub, and toilet, have been experiencing consistent leaks for the past three months. Despite bringing this issue to your attention on multiple occasions, no repairs have been made. As a result, these leaks have caused water damage, compromised the structural integrity of the bathroom, and are also contributing to the growth of mold and mildew, which poses health risks. 2. Electrical Systems: I have noted several concerns regarding the electrical system in my apartment. The lighting fixtures in the kitchen and living room have been flickering intermittently, and some outlets are non-functional. These issues create potential fire hazards and are inconvenient for daily activities such as cooking and using electrical appliances. 3. Heating and Cooling: The central heating and cooling system have not been functioning adequately. Even after adjusting the thermostat, the temperature remains inconsistent throughout the apartment, leading to discomfort during both extreme weather conditions. I have experienced sleepless nights due to excessive heat in summer and shivering nights during the winter. 4. Pest Infestations: I have noticed an increasing presence of pests, including cockroaches and mice, within my unit. These infestations are not only damaging to personal belongings but also pose health risks. Despite my repeated requests, no professional assistance has been provided to address this ongoing issue. 5. Structural Maintenance: There are visible signs of wear and tear on the walls, ceilings, and flooring throughout the apartment. These include cracks, holes, and peeling paint, which not only affect the aesthetic appeal but also signify potential structural damage if left unattended. As your tenant, I understand that repairs and maintenance are an essential part of your responsibilities as a landlord. It is my utmost hope that you will take immediate action to rectify these problems, adhering to the terms of our lease agreement. Furthermore, I kindly request that you provide me with a detailed timeline for when these repairs will be completed. In the event that these repairs remain unresolved within a reasonable timeframe, I am prepared to explore other options available to me as a tenant, such as involving the local housing authority or seeking legal advice to ensure my rights as a tenant are protected. I hope that we can resolve these issues amicably and promptly, fostering a safe and comfortable living environment for both myself and future tenants. I trust that you will address these concerns with the urgency they require. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
