Letter from Tenant to Landlord Responding to Notice to Terminate for Noncompliance — Noncompliant Condition Caused by Landlord's Own Deliberate or Negligent Act: Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I recently received your notice to terminate our lease agreement due to alleged noncompliance on my part. However, I respectfully disagree with your claims and would like to bring your attention to the fact that the noncompliant condition is actually a direct result of your deliberate or negligent acts as the landlord. First and foremost, it is important to highlight that as a tenant, I have fulfilled all of my responsibilities outlined in the lease agreement. I have consistently paid rent on time, properly maintained the premises, and promptly reported any potential issues or damages to you as the landlord. Therefore, I believe it is essential to address the noncompliant condition, which falls entirely under your responsibility. Upon careful inspection of the premises, it has become evident that the noncompliant condition arises from your deliberate actions or negligence. [Insert specific details or examples of the noncompliant condition caused by the landlord, such as failure to fix plumbing issues, delayed repairs, or failure to provide necessary amenities]. As you are aware, under Texas law and our lease agreement, it is your duty as the landlord to maintain the premises in a habitable condition. This includes promptly addressing any repairs, ensuring a safe environment, and meeting all legal requirements. However, your actions or lack thereof have directly contributed to the noncompliant condition, compromising my right to a habitable living space. I kindly request that you promptly rectify the noncompliant condition and take the necessary steps to ensure that such issues do not occur again in the future. It is essential to emphasize that I have no intention of terminating the lease agreement and fully expect compliance from your side. It is important to note that failure to address the noncompliant condition caused by your deliberate or negligent acts may result in legal action or further steps to protect my rights as a tenant. I hope that we can resolve this matter amicably and maintain a positive landlord-tenant relationship moving forward. I kindly urge you to address this matter promptly and provide a written response within [insert reasonable timeframe]. Furthermore, I am available for further discussion or clarification if needed. Please feel free to contact me at [insert your contact information]. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.
