Subject: Lowell Massachusetts Letter from Tenant to Landlord about Fair Housing Reduction or Denial of Services to Family with Children Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of utmost importance regarding the fair housing rights of my family, specifically pertaining to the reduction or denial of services that we have recently encountered. As a tenant residing in one of your properties in Lowell, Massachusetts, I believe it is crucial to address this issue promptly and seek a satisfactory resolution. Firstly, I want to emphasize that the Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination against families with children. Families, regardless of their composition, are entitled to equal treatment when it comes to housing opportunities and related services. This includes the right to equal access to common areas, repairs, maintenance, amenities, and any other services or benefits associated with the property. To deprive any member of my family due to their age or familial status is not only unlawful but also profoundly unfair. While residing at [property address], my family and I have encountered several instances that suggest a reduction or denial of services specifically targeting families with children. These instances include: 1. Notably delayed response to repair requests related to our unit, while quick repairs are made for tenants without children. 2. Discriminatory restrictions placed on the usage of common areas, such as playgrounds or recreational facilities, at certain times or days purely based on the presence of children. 3. Exclusion from community events or activities organized within the property grounds, seemingly designed to cater only to tenants without children. 4. The absence of suitable accommodations or facilities required for families with children, such as a lack of safe play areas, child-friendly amenities, or an unsuitable unit layout. These actions, intentional or not, signal a violation of our family's rights guaranteed under the Fair Housing Act. I firmly believe that no tenant should face discrimination, especially when it comes to securing equitable access to the services and amenities offered by the property they reside in. It is crucial that all tenants, irrespective of their family composition or age, be treated fairly and without prejudice. I kindly request you to address these concerns promptly and take appropriate measures to rectify the situation. It is my hope that you will work towards ensuring fair and equal treatment for all families residing in your properties, including my own. In doing so, we can foster a more inclusive and harmonious living environment for all tenants. Please provide a written response within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 10 business days] to outline the actions you will undertake to rectify the issue. I am open to engaging in a constructive dialogue to reach a mutually beneficial resolution, as it is my intention to resolve this matter amicably and avoid involving external entities. I trust that you will take this matter seriously, respecting the rights and wellbeing of all tenants. Your immediate attention and fair treatment in this regard will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number]
