Description

This is a letter from Tenant to Landlord in which Tenant claims that Landlord's failure to abide by the continuing requirements of the Lease Agreement by denying Tenant certain services is retaliation for some action initiated by Tenant. This letter provides notice to Landlord that such retaliatory action is in breach of the lease agreement and may constitute a further violation of the law. [Yonkers, New York] Letter from Tenant to Landlord — Notice to Cease Retaliatory Decrease in Services Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to address a concerning issue regarding a retaliatory decrease in services that I have noticed in recent months at my rented property located in Yonkers, New York. As a responsible tenant, I believe it is important to communicate my concerns and seek resolution in a constructive manner. Firstly, I would like to acknowledge that I am fully aware of the legal rights and obligations of both tenants and landlords. It is my understanding that retaliatory actions, such as reducing services, in response to a tenant exercising their legal rights, are strictly prohibited under the laws of Yonkers, New York. Recently, I have observed a significant decline in the quality and availability of certain services that are crucial to my peaceful enjoyment of the property. These services include but are not limited to: 1. Maintenance: The response time for addressing maintenance requests has considerably increased. Basic repairs, such as plumbing issues, electrical problems, and pests, which used to be promptly resolved, are now excessively delayed, affecting the habitability and safety of the premises. 2. Security: There has been a noticeable decrease in the security measures implemented within the property. Common areas, including entrances, hallways, and parking lots, lack proper lighting, surveillance cameras, and secure access control systems. This compromises the safety and well-being of all residents. 3. Common Area Maintenance: The communal spaces such as the lobby, elevator, staircases have been neglected, causing them to become dirty, cluttered, and in need of immediate cleaning and maintenance. Regular cleaning schedules, garbage removal, and general upkeep have not been adequately managed. 4. Amenities: Certain amenities mentioned in my lease agreement, such as a well-maintained swimming pool, fitness center, or communal gathering areas, have been closed or rendered unusable without any prior explanation or alternative arrangements. These amenities were an essential factor in my decision to choose this property and its absence greatly impacts the value and comfort of my tenancy. 5. Communication: There has been a lack of effective communication from your end regarding the decrease in services. Despite my attempts to address these concerns verbally, I have received no satisfactory response or explanation. Open and transparent communication is vital to maintain a healthy tenant-landlord relationship. As a tenant, I strive to fulfill my obligations, including timely rent payment and adhering to the rules and regulations outlined in my lease agreement. Therefore, I kindly request that immediate action is taken to rectify the aforementioned deficiencies in services. I strongly urge you to cease any retaliatory actions and resume providing the services that are essential for my peaceful and secure enjoyment of the property as stated in my lease agreement. Please understand that my intention is not to escalate the situation but to foster an open dialogue regarding these concerns. I kindly request a written response within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 10 business days] outlining the measures that will be taken to address these issues effectively. In the absence of a satisfactory response, I may be compelled to seek legal remedies available to tenants under the laws of Yonkers, New York. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and a resolution that allows us to maintain a mutually beneficial tenant-landlord relationship.
