Subject: Immediate Action Required — Notice to Withdraw Improper Rent Increase During Lease Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to address an urgent matter regarding the recent rent increase notice I received for my property located at [address] in Tampa, Florida. Firstly, I want to express my appreciation for providing me with a comfortable living space and maintaining the property to the best of your ability. However, I have noticed a significant discrepancy between the rental increase mentioned in your recent notice and the terms outlined in our lease agreement signed on [date]. Upon reviewing our lease agreement closely, it explicitly stipulates that any rental adjustments should occur only at the end of the current lease term, under specific circumstances such as agreed-upon increases in property taxes or renovations. As there have been no such changes since the commencement of our lease agreement, I believe the rent increase you proposed is unjustified and an improper deviation from our contractual agreement. Furthermore, it is important to note that the Florida Landlord and Tenant Act states that a landlord cannot increase rent during the lease term unless such an increase is specifically mentioned in the lease agreement. As there is no provision regarding mid-lease rent increases in our agreement, I kindly request that you reconsider this decision and withdraw the proposed rent increase immediately. I understand that economic conditions may fluctuate, and costs of property maintenance or inflation may demand a rental adjustment. However, I believe that it is fair and reasonable to discuss any potential changes together, considering all relevant factors and the current economic situation. Moreover, initiating such an increase without any prior communication or negotiation represents a significant breach of trust between a landlord and tenant. In light of the above, I kindly request that you reconsider the rent increase and confirm in writing that you will withdraw your previous notice. It is my desire to continue residing in the property and maintain a healthy landlord-tenant relationship. I am ready and willing to discuss alternative arrangements, including a potential renegotiation of the lease terms, in order to reach a mutually satisfactory resolution. Please consider this letter as a formal notice regarding the improper rent increase, in accordance with the provisions set forth in our lease agreement, the Florida Landlord and Tenant Act, and other applicable laws. If I do not receive a response or a resolution that addresses my concerns within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 14 days] from the date of this letter, I may have to seek legal advice to protect my rights as a tenant and ensure proper adherence to our lease agreement. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I believe that open dialogue and a willingness to work together will lead to a favorable resolution. I look forward to a timely and positive response.
