Description

This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a concern regarding my recent rental payments and to request your assistance in resolving a dispute regarding past rent. I have always valued our landlord-tenant relationship and hope that we can find an amicable solution to this issue. Firstly, I would like to express my appreciation for the comfortable living space you have provided at [Rental Property Address] in North Dakota. I have been a reliable, responsible, and punctual tenant throughout my tenure at this address, fulfilling all my obligations in terms of rent and maintaining the property in good condition. However, I have recently become aware of a discrepancy in my rental payment records, specifically regarding the month of [Month] in [Year]. According to my personal records, I made the full payment of $[Amount] on [Date], in accordance with our agreed-upon lease terms. However, upon reviewing my bank statements and receipts, I noticed that there was no corresponding record of this payment. Considering the importance of timely and accurate rental payments, I kindly request your assistance in investigating this matter further. To ensure transparency, could you please review your own payment records and cross-reference them with mine? It is possible that an administrative error or miscommunication may have occurred, leading to this discrepancy. Furthermore, I believe it is crucial to establish a solution that is fair and reasonable for both parties involved. To this end, I propose the following steps to help resolve this payment dispute swiftly: 1. Independent verification of payment: I suggest contacting our mutual financial institution to verify if the payment in question was received by your account. This can provide clarity and help identify any potential issues that may have occurred during the transaction. 2. Documentation retrieval: I kindly request copies of the rental payment receipts and statements for the disputed period to help compare and reconcile our records accurately. This will aid in identifying any potential errors and help establish a common ground for resolution. 3. Mediation or arbitration: If, after the above steps, we are unable to reach a mutually satisfactory resolution, I propose exploring alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation or arbitration. Engaging a neutral third party could help facilitate a fair and unbiased assessment of the situation, leading to a resolution that respects the rights and interests of both parties. In North Dakota, the Landlord and Tenant Act provides guidelines and protection to both landlords and tenants in rental agreements. It is important to note that each case may differ based on specific lease agreements and circumstances. As such, it may be beneficial to seek legal advice from a professional specializing in landlord-tenant law. I believe in good faith that this dispute can be resolved amicably, with our long-standing professional relationship remaining intact. I kindly request your prompt attention to this matter and appreciate your willingness to address this issue in a fair and timely manner. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. I look forward to working together to reach a satisfactory resolution. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Phone Number] [Email Address]
