Subject: Regarding Insufficient Notice of Rent Increase in Bronx, New York Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my concern regarding the recent notification of a rent increase for my [apartment/unit/house] located in the Bronx, New York. Unfortunately, I believe that the notice provided does not meet the required timeframe as outlined within our lease agreement and New York State's landlord-tenant laws. First and foremost, I would like to emphasize my commitment to maintaining a positive tenant-landlord relationship. Throughout my tenancy, I have taken great care of the property, paid the rent promptly, and adhered to the lease terms. As such, I believe it is equally important that both parties follow the legal guidelines in situations where rent adjustments are sought. According to the lease agreement signed on [date], any rent increase should be communicated to the tenant with a minimum of [notice period stated in the lease] days in advance. Regrettably, the notice I received on [date of notice] states that the rent will be increased starting from [date of increase], which falls short of the required notice period. It is crucial for both landlords and tenants to operate within a framework of mutually agreed-upon terms to ensure transparency, fairness, and compliance with the law. Therefore, I kindly request that you review the situation and consider rectifying the insufficient notice of rent increase I have received. In light of this matter, I propose the following options: 1. Extend the effective date of the rent increase to comply with the required notice period mentioned in our lease agreement. 2. Revoke the current rent increase notice and provide a revised notice within the stipulated timeframe. 3. Initiate discussions to negotiate a reasonable rent increase that aligns with market conditions and is mindful of any unique circumstances of the property. I believe that by addressing this situation promptly and amicably, we can maintain the positive tenant-landlord relationship established thus far. I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to your prompt response.
