I am writing to address a matter of concern regarding the recent rent increase notice I received for the above-mentioned property.

Moreover, it creates unnecessary stress and financial strain, potentially impacting my ability to fulfill my rental obligations promptly. Given this situation, I kindly request that you reconsider the rent increase and provide the appropriate notice period as mandated by RSO. This would afford me the opportunity to thoroughly assess the proposed increase and make an informed decision moving forward. I believe in maintaining a positive and mutually beneficial tenant-landlord relationship, and I am hopeful that we can address this matter amicably. I kindly request a written acknowledgment of this letter within [number of days], along with confirmation that the rent increase will be rescinded or adjusted accordingly to comply with the RSO guidelines.
