I am writing to address a concerning issue with the floors, stairs, and railings in my rental property located at [Rental Property Address] in Odessa, Texas. As a diligent tenant, it is my responsibility to ensure the safety and maintenance of the property in which I reside. However, there are several critical concerns that require prompt attention and immediate repair. Paragraph 2: Firstly, I would like to bring to your attention the deteriorating condition of the floors. Over time, it has become evident that sections of the flooring have started to warp, causing potential trip hazards. This poses a significant danger, not only to myself but also to any guests or visitors that frequent the property. To prevent any accidents or injuries, it is crucial for these damaged areas to be professionally repaired or replaced. Paragraph 3: Secondly, I would like to highlight another concerning issue: the stairs.

Regrettably, the current state of the railings does not fulfill their intended purpose, and I urge you to repair or replace them promptly to prevent any accidents and to maintain a safe living environment. Paragraph 5: According to the lease agreement, it is the landlord's responsibility to ensure that the property is fit for habitation.

I believe it is in the best interest of all parties involved to rectify these concerns promptly and maintain a safe living environment. Paragraph 6: I would appreciate receiving a written acknowledgement of this letter within five business days and a concrete timeline for when the repairs will be initiated.
