Description

This notice regarding Retaliatory Rent Increase, complies with state housing laws and informs Landlord that it is unlawful for a landlord to discriminatorily increase a tenant's rent or decrease services to a tenant, or to bring or threaten to bring an action for possession or other civil action, primarily because the landlord is retaliating against the tenant. Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to address a concerning matter regarding my recent rent increase. As a tenant in the [Apartment Complex/Property Name], I value our landlord-tenant relationship and believe it is essential to communicate openly to foster a harmonious living environment for everyone. Firstly, I want to express my gratitude for providing comfortable accommodation and maintaining the premises in good condition. I have enjoyed living in this apartment complex, and it has become my cherished home. However, I recently received a notice stating that my rent will be increased by [amount] starting from [date]. While I understand that expenses can rise over time, I am genuinely surprised by this sudden and significant increase, considering the stable market conditions and the lack of any substantial upgrades or enhancements to the property. Upon conducting my own research and consulting with other tenants, I have discovered that this rent increase appears to be retaliatory in nature. It has come to my attention that this action might have been prompted by previous requests made to address certain maintenance or repair issues with my unit. I want to assure you that my intention is not to antagonize or threaten you, but rather to initiate a constructive conversation in order to reach a fair resolution. Under the Lansing, Michigan landlord-tenant laws, retaliatory rent increases are prohibited per Michigan Compiled Laws Section 554.139(2). It states that landlords cannot retaliate against tenants for legitimate complaints or requests related to the health, safety, or essential services of the property. In light of this legal protection, I kindly request that you reconsider the rent increase and withdraw it, ensuring that the principles of fairness and harmony prevail in our landlord-tenant relationship. I believe that resolving this situation amicably will be in both our best interests, preserving the positive rapport we have developed so far. Alternatively, I propose that we negotiate a more reasonable rent increase, taking into account the prevailing market rates, the condition of the property, and any changes or improvements that have been made. By engaging in this dialogue, we can find a middle ground that accommodates both my financial constraints and your concerns as a property owner. I genuinely hope that we can come to an understanding and find a solution that benefits us both. I kindly request a response from you within [reasonable timeframe, such as 14 days] to discuss this matter further. To facilitate open communication, I am available to meet in person or speak on the phone, whichever is more convenient for you. Thank you for considering my request and for your attention to this matter. I remain optimistic that we can resolve this situation harmoniously, preserving our positive tenant-landlord relationship. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] Potential Alternate Titles for the Letter: 1.
