[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, Zip] Re: Notice of Broken Doors and Demand for Repair Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to bring to your attention a maintenance issue that requires immediate attention at the rental property located at [rental property address], Collin, Texas. Firstly, I would like to express my appreciation for promptly addressing any concerns that arise during my tenancy. However, it has come to my attention that the doors within the property are currently in a state of disrepair. It is important to note that these broken doors pose a security risk, compromising the safety and wellbeing of myself and other tenants. To provide you with more specific information, I noticed the following issues with the doors: 1. Front Door: The front door handle is loose and difficult to turn properly, making it prone to breakage. Additionally, the lock mechanism is faulty, which affects the overall security of the property. 2. Back Door: The back door has a noticeable crack, rendering it structurally weak. This puts the property at risk of unauthorized entry and compromises the safety of all tenants. 3. Bedroom Door: The bedroom door on the second floor is jammed, making it impossible to open or close smoothly. This negatively impacts both privacy and functionality. Considering the significance of maintaining secure and functional doors, I kindly request that these repairs be addressed immediately. The broken doors not only compromise our safety but also limit our ability to enjoy the property fully. As per our lease agreement, it is the landlord's responsibility to provide and maintain a safe and habitable living environment. Furthermore, I would appreciate it if you could provide me with an estimated timeline for the completion of these repairs. This will allow me to plan accordingly and make any necessary arrangements during the repair process. Your prompt attention to this matter will be greatly appreciated. If I haven't received a response from you within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 7 days], I will be left with no other choice but to seek further assistance from the relevant housing authorities to ensure my rights as a tenant are protected. I remain committed to maintaining a positive landlord-tenant relationship, and I trust that you will address this matter promptly. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me via phone or email should you require any additional information or clarification. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. Sincerely, [Your Name]
