Subject: Urgent Attention Required — Landlord's Neglectful Repairs at [Address] [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, Zip] Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring your immediate attention to the persistent and unresolved repair issues at the above-mentioned property. As a responsible tenant, it is my duty to inform you of the critical maintenance problems that require your immediate action. 1. Plumbing Problems: Since my tenancy began on [move-in date], I have consistently experienced recurring plumbing issues in the property. The kitchen sink regularly backs up, causing foul odors and rendering the area unusable. Additionally, the bathroom plumbing system is constantly malfunctioning, resulting in slow drainage and frequent toilet clogs. This issue has severely inconvenienced me and poses a potential health hazard. 2. Electrical Deficiencies: Another area of concern revolves around the electrical infrastructure within the property. I have noticed frequent power fluctuations and intermittent outages, which not only disrupt my daily activities but also create safety hazards. Ignoring these issues may lead to more significant problems, such as electrical fires or electrical shock risks. 3. Water Leakage and Molds: Regrettably, water leakage has become a recurring problem within the property, causing extensive damage to the walls, ceilings, and flooring. This unaddressed issue has further resulted in mold growth, which poses a serious health risk to occupants. I kindly request immediate repairs to prevent the worsening of this deteriorating situation. 4. Inadequate Heating/Cooling System: The current heating and cooling system in the property has proven to be ineffective, even after repeated requests for maintenance. Inconsistent temperature control negatively affects my comfort, health, and overall well-being. As a tenant, I expect a habitable living environment, and a properly functioning HVAC system is essential for achieving this. I would like to reiterate that these are ongoing issues that significantly impact my quality of life and adhere to your legal obligations as a landlord. The problems mentioned above are not isolated incidents; they have been brought to your attention on multiple occasions but have yet to be adequately addressed. Under California law, not addressing these issues constitutes a breach of implied warranty of habitability and can lead to serious legal consequences. I trust that you understand the gravity of the situation and will take immediate action to rectify these long-standing problems. I kindly request that you provide me with a written plan outlining the timeline for repairs to be completed, ensuring my safety and comfort within the property. Failure to address these concerns promptly may force me to take further legal action, including reporting the matter to the appropriate authorities and seeking appropriate legal remedies. I kindly request acknowledgement of receipt of this letter within [reasonable timeframe] and a prompt resolution to the aforementioned repair issues. Please contact me at the above contact information to discuss the matter further and to schedule the required repairs. Thank you in advance for your urgent attention to this matter. I genuinely hope that we can resolve these issues amicably and restore the property to a habitable condition as soon as possible.
