[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, Zip] Subject: Notice of Uninhabitable Premises and Demand for Immediate Repairs Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention the significant issues that I have discovered in the rented premises at [your address], which render the property uninhabitable and in violation of housing laws and regulations governing rental properties in the City of Chicago, Illinois. As a responsible tenant, it is my duty to inform you of the hazardous conditions that currently exist on the premises, which directly affect my health, safety, and quiet enjoyment of the property. These issues must be addressed immediately to avoid further legal complications and to ensure that the property complies with all applicable laws and regulations. I have identified several key concerns that make the premises uninhabitable: 1. Structural Defects: The property has visible structural defects such as cracks in the walls, ceilings, and floors. These defects pose a serious risk to my safety and result in potential hazards such as collapse or falling objects. 2. Plumbing Issues: The plumbing system is faulty, leading to frequent leaks, water damage, and inadequate water pressure. These issues not only compromise my ability to use water and sanitation facilities effectively but also create an environment prone to mold and potential health risks. 3. Electrical Problems: The electrical system is outdated and malfunctioning, causing constant power outages, flickering lights, and hazardous wiring conditions. Such issues pose a significant fire hazard and risk of electric shock. 4. Pest Infestation: The premises are infested with pests, including rodents (e.g., mice or rats), insects (e.g., cockroaches or bedbugs), or other vermin. This not only affects my well-being and comfort but may also result in the spread of diseases. I believe that the current condition of the property violates several local and state laws, regulations, and codes, including but not limited to the Chicago Residential Landlord and Tenant Ordinance. In light of this, I hereby request that you carry out the necessary repairs and improvements promptly to restore the premises to a habitable and safe condition, fully compliant with all relevant standards. I kindly request that you respond to this notice within [specify a reasonable timeframe, typically 7-14 days] to indicate your commitment to addressing these concerns. Please provide a detailed outline of the repair plan, including the anticipated timeline for completion. Should we fail to reach an agreement or if the necessary repairs are not commenced within the specified timeframe, I will have no choice but to take legal action to protect my rights as a tenant. My primary objective is to ensure the immediate, adequate, and long-term resolution of these issues to guarantee a habitable living environment. I trust that you will treat this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves, fulfilling your obligations as a responsible landlord. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I anticipate your timely response and look forward to resolving these concerns amicably. Sincerely, [Your Name]
