This form is used by a tenant to notify the landlord that the leased premises are untenantable and uninhabitable. Through this form, the tenant makes a demand for repair of the premises. If repairs are not made by the landlord, the tenant may have the right to terminate the lease or abate rent. Subject: Urgent Notice of Uninhabitable Premises and Demand for Immediate Repair Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention the appalling conditions of the rental property located at [Property Address] in Topeka, Kansas. As a tenant, I have discovered several violations of the law that render the premises uninhabitable. I hereby request your immediate attention and prompt action to rectify these issues in accordance with our legal obligations and the terms of our lease agreement. 1. Health and Safety Violations: Since moving into the unit, I have encountered numerous health and safety hazards that endanger not only my well-being but also the well-being of other tenants. These violations include but are not limited to: a) Mold and Mildew: The presence of extensive mold and mildew growth in various areas of the property poses significant health risks, especially for individuals with allergies or respiratory conditions. b) Pest Infestation: The property is infested with rodents and insects, including (but not limited to) cockroaches, rats, and bedbugs. This jeopardizes not only my personal health but also my belongings. c) Lack of Proper Ventilation: The absence of adequate ventilation systems throughout the property has led to excessive humidity, resulting in mold growth and the accumulation of unpleasant odors. 2. Structural Deficiencies: The physical integrity of the property has seriously deteriorated, leading to structural deficiencies. These include: a) Leaking Roof: The roof is in a state of disrepair, allowing water to seep through during rainfall, resulting in water damage to the ceilings, walls, and floors. b) Faulty Plumbing: The plumbing system consistently malfunctions, with frequent leaks, clogged drains, and faulty fixtures, rendering the property uninhabitable and unsanitary. c) Electrical Hazards: The presence of exposed wiring, malfunctioning outlets, and inadequate electrical grounding pose an immediate risk of fire and electrocution. 3. Inadequate Utilities and Appliances: Several essential utilities and appliances required for safe and comfortable living are either non-functional or significantly deficient, such as: a) Heating System: The heating system is unreliable, causing extreme discomfort during cold weather and violating the tenant's right to habitable living conditions. b) Cooling System: The absence of proper cooling systems results in intolerably hot and humid living conditions, making the premises uninhabitable, particularly during summers. c) Plumbing Fixtures: The faucets, toilets, and showers in the property are consistently malfunctioning, failing to provide hot water, and leaking profusely, which significantly impairs daily routines. In accordance with the Kansas Residential Landlord and Tenant Act and our signed lease agreement, I respectfully demand that you take immediate steps to rectify the aforementioned violations within [reasonable timeframe, for example, 14 days] from the date of this notice. I kindly ask you to carry out the necessary repairs, addressing each issue comprehensively to ensure the property meets the required standards of habitability. Furthermore, I kindly request a written acknowledgment of this notice outlining the specific actions you will take to rectify the issues mentioned. If no suitable remedial measures are taken within the stipulated timeframe or my concerns are not adequately addressed, I will have no choice but to pursue legal remedies available to me under the law. Please note that by law, you are obligated to maintain the premises in a habitable condition, and failure to do so may result in further legal action, including the withholding of rent and possible termination of the lease agreement. I trust that you will treat this matter with the utmost urgency it deserves and take immediate action to ensure the habitability and safety of the property for all tenants. Your prompt response is appreciated. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number]
