Title: Riverside California Letter from Tenant to Landlord: Notice to Withdraw Retaliatory Rent Increase Keywords: Riverside California, tenant, landlord, notice, withdraw, retaliatory, rent increase Introduction: Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to address a matter of concern regarding the recent rent increase notice I received. It has come to my attention that this rent increase may be in retaliation for exercising my rights as a tenant, which is in violation of the laws and regulations set in place. I kindly request that you withdraw this retaliatory rent increase and engage in a constructive dialogue to discuss a fair resolution for both parties. I would like to bring the following important points to your attention: 1. Legal Background: Retaliatory rent increases are prohibited under California law, including Riverside County, as it is considered an unfair practice and a violation of tenants' rights. As a tenant, I have certain rights and protections that safeguard me against retaliation for exercising those rights. 2. Identifying Retaliation: The timing and circumstances of the rent increase indicate that it may be retaliatory in nature. Filing a complaint, requesting necessary repairs, or engaging in lawful activities, such as joining a tenants' association, are all examples of activities protected from retaliation. 3. Unjust and Excessive Increase: Aside from suspected retaliation, the amount of the proposed rent increase seems unjust and excessive, far beyond market standards. It is my belief that a rent increase of this magnitude is burdensome and may cause financial hardship. 4. Constructive Communication: I firmly believe in open and constructive communication between tenants and landlords. It is in both our best interests to maintain a healthy, mutually respectful relationship, and resolving this issue amicably will benefit us both. 5. Seeking a Resolution: Instead of proceeding with the retaliatory rent increase, I propose engaging in a conversation to better understand each other's concerns and explore alternative solutions. I am open to negotiations that would result in a fair and reasonable rent increase in line with market standards. Conclusion: In light of the aforementioned points and the legal constraints regarding retaliatory rent increases, I kindly request your immediate withdrawal of the proposed rent increase notice. I am eager to engage in a respectful discussion to find a mutually agreeable solution that meets both our needs and complies with the applicable laws and regulations. I trust you will give this matter your utmost attention and I anticipate your prompt response within [reasonable timeframe]. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
