Los Angeles California Letter from Tenant to Landlord about Fair Housing Reduction or Denial of Services to Family with Children Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring a serious matter to your attention regarding fair housing practices and the rights of families with children. It has come to my attention that our family has been subject to what appears to be a reduction or denial of services in violation of fair housing laws. As you may be aware, the Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination against tenants based on their familial status, which includes having children under the age of 18 residing in the household. It is imperative that landlords provide equal treatment and reasonable accommodations to families with children, ensuring they have an equal opportunity to enjoy the benefits of their rental property. Despite our compliance with the terms of the lease agreement and our responsibilities as responsible tenants, we have recently experienced several instances that suggest a reduction or denial of services solely based on the presence of our children. These include: 1. Maintenance Negligence: Our repeated requests for essential repairs have gone unanswered or resulted in extensive delays, affecting the habitability of our dwelling. It concerns us deeply that this may amount to differential treatment due to our familial status. 2. Amenities Restrictions: We have noticed specific restrictions imposed on children's access to common areas or facilities within the property, while other tenants without children do not face the same limitations. Such discriminatory practices marginalize our children and restrict their enjoyment of the property like other residents. 3. Harassment or Unfair Enforcement: We have been subjected to unwarranted scrutiny, verbal harassment, or enforcement of rules that specifically target families with children. This intimidating behavior creates a hostile environment and raises concerns that we may be singled out due to our familial status. It is crucial to emphasize that the Fair Housing Act protects families with children from any form of discrimination, including these unfair reductions or denials of services. We believe that it is in everyone's best interest to address this matter promptly and amicably. We kindly request that you take the necessary steps to remedy the situation and ensure that our family is treated fairly, in accordance with fair housing laws. To accomplish this, we propose the following actions be taken: 1. Immediate resolution of maintenance issues that have been neglected or delayed, ensuring our dwelling is in compliance with health and safety standards. 2. Removal or adjustment of discriminatory restrictions placed on children's access to common areas or amenities. 3. An end to any form of harassment or unfair enforcement practices targeting our family. 4. Confirmation of training and education on fair housing laws for all management and staff employed by the property to prevent future occurrences of discrimination. 5. Compensation for the distress and inconvenience caused by the consistent reduction or denial of services based on our familial status. Failure to address this issue promptly may leave us with no choice but to pursue legal remedies available under fair housing laws. We believe in your commitment to upholding fair housing principles and trust that you will take appropriate action to rectify this situation. We kindly request a written response within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 10 business days] to ensure open communication and promote a resolution. Please consider this letter as a formal complaint and take it seriously. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
