Title: Allegheny Pennsylvania Letter from Tenant to Landlord Containing Notice to Withdraw Retaliatory Rent Increase. Keywords: Allegheny Pennsylvania, letter, tenant, landlord, notice, withdraw, retaliatory rent increase. Introduction: Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a concerning matter regarding the recent rent increase for [Property Address] in Allegheny Pennsylvania. It has come to my attention that this increase may be retaliatory in nature, which is not only unfair but also against the rights of tenants in this area. I kindly request that you reconsider this rent increase and withdraw it based on the following grounds. 1. Tenant Rights in Allegheny Pennsylvania: As you may be aware, Allegheny Pennsylvania has specific laws and regulations in place to protect the rights of tenants. One of these rights includes protection against retaliatory actions by landlords, such as rent increases, when tenants exercise their legal rights, make valid complaints, or participate in tenant organizations. This protection ensures a fair and equal relationship between tenants and landlords and must be respected. 2. Documentation of Retaliation: I have documented instances that suggest this rent increase is a retaliatory action due to my recent legitimate concerns and requests regarding maintenance issues in the property. In accordance with Allegheny Pennsylvania law, retaliatory rent increases are strictly prohibited, and I have the right to challenge such actions. 3. Citation of Relevant Laws: According to Pennsylvania's Landlord and Tenant Act of 1951, Section 250.204a, retaliatory evictions and retaliatory actions against tenants are strictly prohibited. Furthermore, Allegheny County's guidelines specifically state that retaliatory rent increases are a violation of tenant rights. 4. Fair Rental Practices: It is essential to maintain fair rental practices that respect the rights and well-being of both landlords and tenants. Retaliatory rent increases do not align with these principles and can damage the landlord-tenant relationship, creating unnecessary tensions and disruptions. 5. Request for Immediate Resolution: In light of the above, I kindly request that you withdraw the retaliatory rent increase and restore the original rental amount. I believe that by doing so, we can resolve this matter amicably and restore a positive tenant-landlord relationship. I am committed to fulfilling my responsibilities as a tenant and expect fair treatment in return. Conclusion: Please understand that I value my tenancy in the property and wish to maintain a harmonious relationship with you as my landlord. Retaliatory actions such as the rent increase are not conducive to a positive and mutually beneficial living environment. I urge you to reconsider this rental increase and act in accordance with Allegheny Pennsylvania's tenant rights laws. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
