Subject: Urgent Removal of Garbage and Vermin from League City Texas Rental Property ā Demand Letter [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 bring to your immediate attention a pressing issue regarding the unsanitary and hazardous conditions at the rental property located at [Property Address] in League City, Texas. As a concerned tenant, I kindly request your urgent assistance in removing the accumulating garbage and resolving the pest infestation issue promptly. Over the past few weeks, I have noticed a worrisome increase in garbage accumulation and the presence of vermin within the premises. It is evident that the current condition of our living environment poses a significant health and safety risk to both myself and other tenants. This issue not only violates the terms and conditions of our lease agreement but also the Texas Health and Safety Code, which mandates suitable accommodation for residential tenants. To provide a comprehensive overview of the deteriorating condition, I want to emphasize the following concerns: 1. Garbage Accumulation: ā Indicate the specific areas where garbage has piled up, such as common areas or designated waste disposal areas, if any. ā Highlight any potential health hazards, foul odors, or vermin attraction caused by the garbage buildup. ā Emphasize the tenant's diligent efforts to maintain cleanliness by following all proper waste disposal protocols. 2. Pest Infestation: ā Clearly state the type(s) of vermin infesting the property (e.g., rats, mice, insects, etc.). ā Describe any visible damages caused by the vermin and their potential impact on the property's structural integrity. ā Mention any potential health threats posed by the presence of pests, such as allergies, diseases, or bites. Considering the urgency of this matter and its impact on our overall well-being, I kindly request that you take immediate action to address and resolve these issues effectively. In accordance with our lease agreement and Texas tenant rights, I expect the following actions to be taken within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 14 days] from the date of this letter: 1. Prompt removal of all accumulated garbage from the property, ensuring regular waste pickup and proper disposal arrangements are implemented. 2. Conducting a comprehensive, professional pest control treatment by a licensed exterminator. Regular follow-up treatments should also be scheduled to exterminate and prevent further infestations. 3. Implementing preventive measures to deter vermin, such as sealing entry points, repairing any damages, and improving waste management practices on the premises. 4. Providing documentation of the actions taken to remediate these issues, along with a timeline for completion, to ensure transparency and accountability. Please be advised that failure to take immediate and appropriate action to address these concerns may force me to seek legal remedies available to tenants under Texas law. This includes reporting the property to local health and building code enforcement authorities as well as pursuing compensation for any damages incurred due to these conditions. To facilitate effective communication regarding this matter, I kindly request a written response within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 7 days] from the date of receipt of this letter. Your prompt attention to this issue and commitment to maintaining a safe and habitable living environment for all tenants will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your immediate attention to this serious matter. I trust that, as a responsible landlord, you will take the necessary steps to resolve these issues promptly, ensuring our well-being and full compliance with the law. Looking forward to your prompt response.
