Subject: Urgent Letter from Tenant to Landlord regarding Insufficient Notice of Rent Increase in West Covina, California Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention the matter of an insufficient notice of rent increase at [property address]. As a tenant residing in your property, it is my duty to inform you that the recent rent increase notification did not comply with California landlord-tenant laws and caused significant inconvenience. In accordance with the California Civil Code §827, landlords are required to provide tenants with a minimum of 30 days' written notice before increasing the rent. However, the notice I received from you on [date of notice] only allowed for a 15-day period. This violates my rights as a tenant and compromises the stability I seek in my living arrangements. Upon discovering the disparity between the actual notice period and the legally mandated notice period, I promptly researched the regulations to ensure my understanding was accurate. I have also consulted with a legal professional to confirm the validity of my concerns. It is crucial to rectify this issue promptly to maintain a positive landlord-tenant relationship and ensure compliance with the law. I kindly request that you acknowledge and rectify this issue within the next ten business days. I suggest retracting the current rent increase notification and providing an updated notice that adheres to the 30-day written notice period, as mandated by California law. Moreover, it is important for both parties to uphold the principles of fair communication and mutual respect. I understand that as a landlord, you have the right to increase the rent within the legal limits, but it is essential that you adhere to the proper procedures and regulations to protect the rights and interests of both parties involved. Failure to rectify this situation within the given timeframe may result in the need for further action on my part, which I hope can be avoided. However, I assure you that I am prepared to take necessary steps to protect my rights as a tenant. I look forward to resolving this matter amicably and maintaining the harmonious landlord-tenant relationship we have enjoyed thus far. Please contact me at [your contact information] to discuss this issue further or to arrange a meeting at your convenience. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
