Title: Template of Bexar Texas Letter from Tenant to Landlord for Failure to Comply with Building Codes Affecting Health and Safety — Demand for Remedy Keywords: Bexar Texas, letter from tenant to landlord, failure to comply, building codes, health and safety, untenantable condition, demand for remedy Introduction: Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concerns regarding the failure of the property located at [Property Address] to comply with the necessary building codes that directly impact my health and safety as a tenant. I am aware that as the landlord, you are responsible for ensuring the habitability of the property, and I believe immediate action is required to rectify the prevailing issues. Description of Building Code Violations: Upon careful inspection and consultation with relevant authorities, it has come to my attention that several building code violations exist within the premises, compromising the health and safety of myself and my fellow tenants. The following violations have been observed: 1. Lack of proper ventilation, leading to poor air quality and the potential for mold growth. 2. Non-functional or inadequate smoke detectors and fire prevention measures. 3. Plumbing issues resulting in water leaks, leading to potential damage or mold growth. 4. Structural deficiencies compromising the integrity of the building. 5. Insufficient and outdated electrical systems, presenting a significant fire hazard. 6. Inadequate lighting in common areas, posing safety risks, particularly during nighttime hours. These violations contravene essential health and safety standards mandated by Bexar Texas building codes, thereby transforming the property into an untenantable condition, which demonstrates clear negligence on the part of the landlord. Request for Immediate Remedy: In light of the aforementioned violations, I demand prompt remediation of the building code infractions affecting the health and safety of the tenants. As outlined in the lease agreement, it is the landlord's responsibility to ensure habitability, and failure to do so constitutes a breach of this agreement. To ensure that necessary repairs and improvements take place in a timely manner, I kindly request the following actions be taken: 1. A written response acknowledging the receipt of this letter within [specific timeframe]. 2. Immediate inspection of the property by a qualified inspector to thoroughly assess the extent of the building code violations. 3. Prompt initiation of necessary repairs and improvements, as deemed appropriate by the inspector. 4. Regular updates on the progress of the remedial actions being taken. Conclusion: As a responsible tenant, I have fulfilled my financial obligations by paying rent on time and taking care of the property. However, the landlord's failure to adhere to building codes and maintain a safe and habitable environment necessitates immediate action. I trust that you will address these concerns seriously and prioritize the health and safety of the tenants. Please consider this letter as my formal notice and give this matter the attention it requires. Failure to respond and rectify the aforementioned issues will force me to take further legal action to protect my rights as a tenant. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Tenant's Contact Information]
