Subject: Urgent Notice to Withdraw Improper Rent Increase due to Violation of Carlsbad California Rent Control Ordinance Dear [Landlord's Name], I am writing this letter to bring to your attention a serious matter regarding the recent rent increase that you have imposed upon my tenancy at [Property Address]. After reviewing the local rent control ordinance in Carlsbad, California, I have determined that the rent increase breaches provisions outlined within this ordinance. According to the Carlsbad California Rent Control Ordinance, landlords are required to adhere to specific regulations and guidelines when increasing the rent for their tenants. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in severe penalties and legal ramifications. It is my firm belief that the rent increase imposed on me violates the aforementioned ordinance for the following reasons: 1. Lack of Justification: The increase in rent does not appear to be justified, as there have been no significant improvements or changes to the property or rental services that would reasonably warrant such an increase. It is important to note that Carlsbad's rent control ordinance requires landlords to provide valid justifications for any rent adjustments. 2. Excessive Rent Increase: The percentage by which you have increased my rent appears to exceed the limitations set forth by the Carlsbad California Rent Control Ordinance. The ordinance explicitly states that annual rent increases are limited to a specified percentage, which must be adhered to. 3. Violation of Rent Control Limits: The specific rental unit that I occupy at [Property Address] falls under the jurisdiction of the rent control ordinance in Carlsbad, California. As specified in the ordinance, this property is subject to rent control regulations, and any rent increase must comply with the prescribed limits outlined therein. 4. Proper Documentation: I have also noticed that you failed to provide me with the required written notice before increasing my rent. According to the Carlsbad California Rent Control Ordinance, a landlord is obligated to provide written documentation, stating the reasons and calculations behind any rent increase, at least 60 days in advance. Unfortunately, I have not received any such notice. In light of these violations, I kindly request the immediate withdrawal of the improper rent increase and a return to the previous rent amount, as outlined in my original lease agreement. I believe it is in both our best interests to promptly resolve this matter in a fair and legal manner. Failure to comply with the Carlsbad California Rent Control Ordinance and honor this notice may lead to further legal action being pursued to ensure that my rights as a tenant are upheld. I trust that you will rectify this situation promptly, fostering a positive landlord-tenant relationship for the future. Furthermore, you must be aware that there might be additional variations of a "Carlsbad California Letter from Tenant to Landlord containing Notice to withdraw improper rent increase due to violation of rent control ordinance." These may include specific details based on individual circumstances, lease agreements, or the nature of the rent increase violations. However, the overall objective remains the same — to inform the landlord of the improper rent increase and demand its withdrawal in accordance with Carlsbad's rent control ordinance. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I hope that we can find an amicable resolution that supports a positive living environment for all parties involved. I look forward to hearing from you within [timeframe] regarding the actions you will be taking.
