This form covers the subject matter described in the form's title for your State. This letter is written by a Tenant to a Landlord in response to Landlord's notice of eviction. Tenant asserts that the conditions which caused Landlord to evict Tenant were a result of Landlord's or Landlord's agents actions. Tenant requests non-eviction and repairs to the property immediately. Tenant reserves his/her legal rights at law to sue, etc.
Dear [Landlord's Name], I am writing this letter in response to the Notice to Terminate for Noncompliance that I received on [date]. I would like to bring to your attention the noncompliant condition in my apartment, which has been caused by your deliberate or negligent act. Firstly, I would like to address the issue of the leaking roof in my apartment. This condition has not been resolved despite my previous complaints and requests for maintenance. The water leaks have caused extensive damage to my personal belongings, including furniture and electronics. As the landlord, it is your responsibility to ensure the habitability of the premises, and I believe this noncompliant condition is a direct result of your neglect and failure to address the issue promptly. Moreover, the insect infestation in my unit is another noncompliant condition that needs immediate attention. I have repeatedly notified you of this problem, but no steps have been taken to resolve it. The infestation has not only caused significant inconvenience but also raised concerns about the health and safety of myself and other residents in the building. I believe this noncompliance is a direct consequence of your deliberate or negligent act in not taking appropriate measures to prevent or address the infestation. Additionally, I would like to emphasize the hazardous electrical wiring situation that poses a threat to my safety and the safety of other tenants in the building. The outdated electrical system, which you have failed to upgrade or repair, has created a high-risk environment that could lead to electrical fires or electrocution. Your deliberate or negligent act of not addressing this noncompliant condition demonstrates a disregard for our well-being and violates your duty as a landlord to maintain a safe living environment. In light of these noncompliant conditions caused by your deliberate or negligent acts, I kindly request that you take immediate action to rectify the issues mentioned above. I expect a prompt response outlining the course of action you plan to undertake to remedy the situation within a reasonable timeframe. If you fail to resolve these noncompliant conditions within the specified timeframe, I will have no choice but to consider seeking legal remedies available to me under the North Carolina Landlord-Tenant laws. These remedies may include withholding rent, pursuing compensation for damages incurred, or exploring the possibility of early lease termination due to your breach of duties as a landlord. I trust that as a responsible landlord, you will address these noncompliant conditions promptly and take the necessary steps to ensure a safe and habitable living environment for all tenants. I look forward to your immediate attention to this matter. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Tenant Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number]
