Subject: Urgent: Request to Withdraw Retaliatory Rent Increase — Tenant Notice to Landlord in Maricopa, Arizona Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to address a matter of concern regarding the recent rent increase that was implemented at [Specify Property Address] on [Date]. I kindly request your immediate attention and understanding as this matter affects both parties involved. Firstly, I would like to express my gratitude for providing me with a comfortable living space since I moved into the premises.

However, I have recently become aware that the rent increase implemented on [Date], from [Previous Rent Amount] to [New Rent Amount], may be perceived as a retaliatory action resulting from my valid exercise of tenant rights. It has come to my attention that retaliatory rent increases, as per Arizona law (Arizona Revised Statutes § 33-1381), are prohibited in cases where a tenant exercises their rights, such as making legitimate complaints about necessary repairs or maintenance issues. I believe my concerns are justified due to the following reasons: 1.

[Include any evidence you might have, such as copies of emails, maintenance requests, or photographs, supporting your claims.] As a tenant who responsibly adheres to their obligations, I strongly believe that the rent increase in question is unjust and retaliatory. Under the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, it is stated that a landlord should not retaliate against tenants for exercising their rights granted by law. Given the circumstances, I kindly request that you review the situation and immediately withdraw the retaliatory rent increase. It is my hope that we can resolve this matter amicably and maintain a positive landlord-tenant relationship moving forward. In light of this, I kindly request your prompt response and definitive action regarding this issue. I am open to discussing this matter further to reach a mutually beneficial outcome. Should we fail to find an agreeable solution, I may have to consider pursuing further legal remedies available to me under Arizona law. I genuinely believe in the value of open and transparent communication, and I am optimistic that this issue can be resolved equitably to maintain the harmonious environment we have both strived for. I highly appreciate your understanding, cooperation, and timely attention in addressing this matter. Thank you for your prompt action.
