This form covers the subject matter described in the form's title for your State. This is a letter written by Tenant to Landlord claiming that Landlord's refusal to accept rent was unjustified. This puts Landlord on notice that Tenant is reserving all legal rights and remedies associated with Landlord's refusal.
Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to bring to your attention a matter concerning rent payment at [address of the property]. As a responsible tenant, I have been making consistent and timely rent payments since the onset of our lease agreement. However, recently I have noticed instances of what I perceive as unjustified nonacceptance of my monthly rent payment. Under the Colorado Residential Landlord and Tenant Act and the terms outlined in our lease agreement, it is imperative for landlords to accept valid rent payments from tenants, as long as they are made in accordance with the agreed-upon terms. It is my belief that my rent payment has been withheld without reasonable justification, and I would like to formally request that this practice cease immediately. I have meticulously ensured that my rent payments meet all requirements outlined in the lease agreement. I ensure payment is delivered within the designated timeframe, either by mail or electronically, as agreed upon. Despite this, there have been instances where my rent payment has been refused or returned without any valid explanation or clarification provided. As a tenant, it is my right to be able to pay rent in a timely and efficient manner and to have it duly accepted and credited toward my lease agreement. The unilateral decision to refuse my rent payment not only breaches our contractual obligations but also poses significant inconvenience and potential legal consequences. I kindly request your immediate attention to rectify this situation. In order to resolve this matter amicably, I propose the following actions: 1. Provide a clear understanding of the reasons behind the refusal of my rent payments. I request that you provide a written explanation that outlines any circumstances or justifications for this recurring occurrence. 2. Cease the practice of nonacceptance of rent and acknowledge my future rent payments as per the agreed-upon terms. Should there be any issues with my rent payment, I am open to discussing them in a prompt and respectful manner. 3. If there are specific concerns or issues with my rent payment that need to be addressed, please communicate them to me in writing within 7 business days of receiving this letter. This will allow both parties to discuss and resolve any misunderstandings or discrepancies. Failure to address and rectify this matter in a timely and appropriate manner may leave me with no choice but to seek legal counsel and take further necessary action to protect my rights as a tenant. I believe that it is in our mutual interest to find a resolution that upholds our rights and obligations under the law and ensures a harmonious landlord-tenant relationship moving forward. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to a swift resolution and the prompt acceptance of my future rent payments.
