Dear (property manager's name), I wanted to contact you today to ask if we could discuss lowering my rent. I love living here but lately, finances have been difficult and a slight reduction in rent would go a long way in helping. It's important to me to be a good and responsible tenant.
Uninhabitable conditions can include dangerous ones, such as holes in the floor, unsafe or exposed wiring, or non-working air conditioning in dangerously hot summer months. Gross infestations of roaches, fleas or other pests are also uninhabitable conditions.
I am writing to make you a request to reduce my rental obligation each month until the economy improves. Honestly, it would be very difficult for me to continue doing business with the current rent and would be highly grateful if you could consider my request.
