Philadelphia Pennsylvania Letter from Tenant to Landlord Subject: Notice of Uninhabitable Premises and Demand for Immediate Repair [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, Zip Code] Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to notify you of the current condition of the premises I am renting at [Your Rental Property Address] in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It has come to my attention that the property is uninhabitable, which is in direct violation of the laws and regulations governing rental properties in our jurisdiction. I would like to bring to your attention the following issues that require your immediate attention and repair: 1. [Keyword: plumbing] — There is a severe plumbing issue in the property. The drains are frequently blocked, and sewage water backs up into the sinks and showers, rendering the property unhygienic and unsafe. 2. [Keyword: electrical] — The electrical system in the rental unit is faulty, as indicated by frequent power outages and sparking outlets. This poses a significant fire hazard and places both me and the property at risk. 3. [Keyword: structural] — There are noticeable cracks in the walls, ceiling, and foundation. These cracks have been expanding over time, indicating a potential structural problem that compromises the safety and stability of the property. 4. [Keyword: pests/infestation] — The property has been infested with pests, including rodents and insects. Despite my efforts to address this issue, it has become increasingly difficult to live in a pest-free environment, posing health risks and violating our lease agreement. According to the Philadelphia Property Maintenance Code, Chapter 9-1000, it is the responsibility of the landlord to maintain the premises in a habitable and safe condition. These violations are not only inconvenient but also prevent me from enjoying the quiet and peaceful enjoyment of my rental property. Therefore, I am formally requesting that you address and rectify these issues immediately. As per the applicable laws, you are required to undertake the necessary repairs within a reasonable timeframe. I expect the repairs to commence no later than [reasonable date], allowing for a prompt resolution to these problems. If these repairs are not initiated promptly, I will have no choice but to exercise my legal rights, including withholding rent until the issues are rectified, filing a complaint with the appropriate governmental agency, and seeking legal advice if necessary. I kindly ask that you contact me within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 5 business days] to schedule an inspection and discuss the repair plan. I can be reached at the contact information provided above. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I trust that you will take the necessary steps to restore the property to a habitable condition promptly. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
