Title: Rochester New York Letter from Tenant to Landlord: Notice to Withdraw Retaliatory Rent Increase Keywords: Rochester, New York, tenant, landlord, letter, notice, withdraw, retaliatory, rent increase *** Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a concerning issue that has recently come to my attention — the retaliatory rent increase that was implemented for my rental unit [Unit Number/Address] in Rochester, New York. I kindly request that you withdraw this rent increment immediately as it appears to be a form of retaliation for seeking my rights as a tenant. As you may recall, I recently contacted the Rochester Housing Council, seeking clarification on certain rights and responsibilities of both tenants and landlords. It is in light of this communication that the rent increase was imposed. I believe this action to be retaliatory, which contradicts the laws protecting tenants against retaliation for exercising their legal rights. The purpose of this letter is three-fold. Firstly, I would like to inform you that I am fully aware of the tenant protection laws governing New York and, more specifically, Rochester. These laws explicitly outline the rights and protections granted to tenants, ensuring their well-being, safety, and fair treatment. Retaliation against tenants is strictly prohibited as it undermines the spirit of these regulations. Secondly, I would like you to acknowledge that I have not violated any terms of our rental agreement, nor have I neglected my responsibilities as a tenant. My diligence in maintaining the property, timely payments of rent, and adherence to the defined rules and regulations should serve as proof of my commitment to being a responsible occupant. Lastly, I kindly request that you withdraw the retaliatory rent increase without further delay. I believe it is in both of our best interests to maintain a harmonious landlord-tenant relationship. This can only be achieved through open communication, adherence to laws, and respectful engagement. I am prepared to take further action if my request is not met within a reasonable timeframe. This may include seeking legal advice and filing a formal complaint with the appropriate housing authority in Rochester, New York. However, I hope that it does not come to this, as I believe we can resolve this matter amicably. I am open to discussing the issue further, either face-to-face or through written communication, to reach a mutually beneficial solution. I look forward to your prompt attention and a favorable resolution to this matter. If you require any further information or documentation, please do not hesitate to contact me at [Your Contact Information]. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
