[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Demand for Prompt Repair of Broken Windows at [Rental Property Address] Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring a pressing matter to your immediate attention regarding the state of the windows at [Rental Property Address]. I have noticed that several windows throughout the property are broken and in dire need of repair. This issue poses a significant inconvenience, compromises the security of the property, and affects my ability to properly enjoy my living space. The broken windows have become a major concern due to the following reasons: 1. Safety and Security: The broken windows expose the property to various safety risks, including potential break-ins, intrusion by pests, and even inclement weather conditions. This jeopardizes not only my personal safety but also the security and integrity of the entire property. 2. Energy Efficiency: The broken windows allow drafts, leaks, and moisture to enter the premises, leading to significant energy-related problems. This results in increased utility bills, as the heating and cooling systems have to compensate for the temperature inconsistencies caused by the broken windows. 3. Comfort and Livability: The compromised windows also contribute to a decrease in the quality of my living environment. The constant exposure to external noise, dust, and other pollutants affects my overall well-being and the tranquility I should experience in my home. Considering the seriousness of this matter, I kindly request that you prioritize the repair of the broken windows promptly. As a tenant, it is my right to have a safe, secure, and habitable living space. I understand that maintenance issues can arise, but it is your responsibility as the landlord to rectify them in a timely manner, as outlined in the terms of our lease agreement. I kindly request that you arrange for a professional and licensed contractor to inspect and repair the broken windows at the soonest possible time. Furthermore, I urge you to address this matter within [specify a reasonable timeline, typically 14 days] from the date of this letter to avoid any further inconvenience or potential legal actions. Please acknowledge receipt of this letter and provide me with details on the steps you will take to address the issue. Should I not receive a satisfactory response or action within the specified timeline, I may be forced to seek legal remedies, report the issue to the local authorities, or involve a tenant protection agency. I appreciate your attention to this matter and anticipate a swift resolution. I value our landlord-tenant relationship and hope to maintain it positively. Thank you for your immediate attention to this pressing matter.
