Title: Lansing Michigan Letter from Tenant to Landlord with Demand to Repair Floors, Stairs, or Railings Introduction: Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to raise a concern regarding the deteriorating condition of the floors, stairs, or railings within my rented property located in Lansing, Michigan. As a responsible tenant, I believe it is crucial to address potential safety hazards promptly to maintain a secure and habitable living environment for both myself and other occupants. Paragraph 1: Identifying the Issue Firstly, I would like to draw your attention to the floors. After residing in the property for some time now, it has become clear that certain areas of the flooring are severely damaged, which can pose a significant risk to anyone walking on them. I have noticed numerous loose or broken tiles, creaking floorboards, and areas where the flooring seems weakened. This is not only an eyesore but also a potential safety hazard for myself and others. Paragraph 2: Stairs Safety Concerns Secondly, I have noticed several alarming issues with the stairs within the property. The stair treads are worn out, presenting a heightened risk of slip and fall accidents. Additionally, the handrail along the staircase is shaky, making it unstable to hold onto for support. Given that stairs are frequently used daily, ensuring their stability is of utmost importance to prevent accidents. Paragraph 3: Railings Safety Concerns Lastly, I would like to bring your attention to the railings throughout the property. In certain areas, the railings are either loose or completely missing. This poses significant risks, especially for elderly or disabled individuals, as it compromises their ability to safely navigate the property. Restoring and maintaining sturdy railings is essential to prevent accidents and ensure the well-being of all occupants. Paragraph 4: Legal Obligations As per the landlord-tenant laws specific to Lansing, Michigan, it is the landlord's legal obligation to ensure that rented properties meet certain safety standards. This includes maintaining floors, stairs, and railings in a safe and functional condition. Neglecting these repairs not only violates our rental agreement but also jeopardizes the well-being of the tenants. Closing: Given the urgency and potential risks associated with these maintenance issues, I kindly request that you address these matters promptly. I propose scheduling a meeting or discussing a suitable timeframe for repairs to be carried out. I trust that you share my concern for maintaining a safe and habitable living environment for all tenants in the property. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter, and I am looking forward to your immediate actions. Kindly acknowledge receipt of this letter.
