Here is a detailed description of what this letter entails: Subject: King Washington Letter from Tenant to Landlord Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address an issue that has recently arisen, involving a retaliatory decrease in services provided to me as a tenant at [property address]. As per my rights and the lease agreement, I feel it is necessary to bring this matter to your attention. Firstly, I want to acknowledge the landlord-tenant relationship we have had thus far. As a responsible and rent-paying tenant, I have made every effort to maintain a harmonious living environment and cooperate in all matters related to the property. However, I have noticed a concerning change in the level of services provided to me recently. It has come to my attention that these decrease in services may be retaliatory in nature, as they coincided with my exercise of certain rights as a tenant, such as requesting repairs, expressing concerns, or asserting my legal rights. Retaliation for lawful tenant actions is a violation of tenant rights according to the King Washington Landlord-Tenant Act. I kindly request that you cease the retaliatory decrease in services and promptly reinstate the level of services that were previously provided. The reduction in services has had a negative impact on my ability to enjoy the rented unit in the manner that was agreed upon in the lease agreement. To resolve this matter amicably and in accordance with legal requirements, I hereby provide you with notice that I expect the following actions to be taken within the next [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 14 days]: 1. Restore any and all services (e.g., heating, cooling, plumbing, electricity, pest control, maintenance, etc.) that have been intentionally reduced or withheld; 2. Compensate for any damages or inconvenience caused by the decreased services during this period; 3. Provide a written acknowledgement of receipt of this notice, indicating your intent to comply with the demands expressed herein; 4. Ensure that these retaliatory actions do not recur and commit to maintaining a respectful and cooperative landlord-tenant relationship going forward. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in further action being taken in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations. Please note that this letter is not intended to create any animosity or escalate the situation unnecessarily. Instead, it aims to address a concerning issue and seek a resolution that is fair to both parties involved. I kindly request that you respond to this letter in writing within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 7 days] to indicate your intentions regarding addressing the matter at hand. I firmly believe that open communication and cooperation will lead to a satisfactory resolution. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
