Subject: Urgent Notice of Premises Leakage during Rain and Demand for Immediate Repair Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to bring a matter of utmost concern to your attention regarding the rental property located at [property address] in Victorville, California. Specifically, I have noticed significant leaks within the premises during rainstorms, resulting in substantial damage and inconvenience. The purpose of this letter is to formally inform you of the existing leaks and demand that immediate action be taken to rectify this issue. As a responsible tenant, it is my duty to report any defects that may compromise the habitability of the dwelling, as well as to ensure the protection of my personal belongings. The leaks have become increasingly worse over time, and during rainfall, water ingress has been observed in various areas of the property. Below, I have provided specific details regarding the leaks and the subsequent harm they have caused: 1. Roof Leaks: ā During rainfall, water drips incessantly through the ceiling in the living room, causing extensive damage to the walls, flooring, and furniture. ā Water stains and dampness have become evident, leading to the growth of mold and mildew, thus posing potential health hazards. 2. Window Leaks: ā The bedroom window on the northwest side of the property allows water to penetrate, resulting in a constant flow along the window sill and eventual water damage on the floor. ā The window leaks have led to an unpleasant odor and have rendered the room uninviting and unsanitary. Due to the continuous leaks, my safety and peace of mind have been severely compromised. I have been forced to rearrange my furniture, cover them in protective sheets, and place buckets and towels in strategic locations to minimize damage. Nonetheless, these temporary measures do not provide a long-term solution to the problem at hand. I understand that as a responsible landlord, you are obligated to provide habitable living conditions in accordance with local and state regulations. Therefore, I kindly request that immediate repairs be carried out by licensed professionals to address all identified leaks, ensure proper insulation, and remedy any resulting structural or cosmetic damages. Furthermore, I expect these repairs to be made promptly, with minimal disruption to my daily routine and occupation of the premises. As a tenant, I strive to uphold my responsibilities and obligations, ensuring the timely payment of rent and the proper maintenance of the property. Consequently, I trust that you will treat this matter with the utmost urgency and prioritize the necessary repairs, preserving the integrity and habitability of the rental property. Should you require any further information or wish to schedule a convenient time for an inspection, please do not hesitate to contact me at [your contact information]. I believe that through open communication and constructive cooperation, we can mutually resolve this issue, benefiting both parties involved. I look forward to your prompt attention to this matter, and I trust that the necessary action will be taken promptly to address these persistent leaks. Your immediate decision to commence repairs will demonstrate your commitment to maintaining a safe and habitable living environment. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
