Subject: Request for Clarification Regarding Insufficient Notice of Rent Increase Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you as a long-term tenant at [property address] in San Antonio, Texas, to address a concerning matter pertaining to the recently received notice of a rent increase. First and foremost, I would like to express my appreciation for your role as my landlord and the efforts you put into managing our property. However, according to the Texas Property Code, specifically Chapter 92, Section 92.012, landlords are mandated to provide tenants with written notice at least 30 days prior to any proposed rent increase. Regrettably, the notice that I received falls short of complying with this legal requirement. Upon receiving the notice, I promptly reviewed my lease agreement to ensure that the terms regarding rent increases were accurately presented. The agreement explicitly states that I should receive at least 30 days' written notice of any changes to the rental amount. Unfortunately, the notice provided did not adhere to this provision, leading to the current confusion and uncertainty regarding the proposed rent increase. Before moving forward, I kindly request that you provide me with an explanation as to why the notice did not adhere to the required 30-day notice period, as outlined by both the Texas Property Code and our lease agreement. Understanding the reasons behind this oversight will assist in clarifying the situation. Should there have been any extenuating circumstances which prohibited complying with the notice period, I am open to discussing the matter further. Furthermore, it would be beneficial for both parties to have a transparent discussion about the proposed rent increase. Given our positive landlord-tenant relationship and my longstanding tenancy, I would greatly appreciate an opportunity to discuss this matter with you. By holding a discussion, we can evaluate the justifications for the rent increase and address any concerns that may arise from it. Ultimately, my objective is to ensure the smooth continuation of our tenancy. However, it is vital to abide by legal requirements and the terms set forth in our lease agreement. I request that you rectify this issue by providing a revised and lawful notice, providing me with the appropriate amount of time to make necessary arrangements and decisions regarding the proposed rent increase. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I eagerly await your prompt response and look forward to discussing this situation with you for a mutually agreeable resolution.
