Subject: Urgent: Tenant Complaint Regarding Landlord's Neglect to Address Maintenance Issues Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of growing concern regarding the unresolved maintenance issues in the apartment unit at [property address]. Despite our previous discussions and reminders, I regret to inform you that several significant issues have remained unaddressed, jeopardizing my comfort, safety, and overall living conditions. 1) Plumbing Problems: Over the past few months, I have been experiencing persistent plumbing issues, including clogged drains and leaky faucets. These problems have caused inconvenience and potential water damage to both the property and my personal belongings. 2) Electrical Malfunctions: The presence of faulty electrical outlets and flickering lights poses a significant risk of electrical hazards and potential fires. This issue demands immediate attention to ensure the safety of all residents in the building. 3) Pest Infestation: Despite reporting the presence of pests such as rodents, insects, or any other vermin, no steps have been taken to address this matter. The infestation not only contributes to an unsanitary living environment but also raises concerns about potential property damage. 4) Heating and Cooling System: The malfunctioning HVAC system continues to adversely affect the indoor temperature, resulting in discomfort and undue hardship, particularly during extreme weather conditions. This issue affects not only my well-being but compromises the energy efficiency of the property as well. 5) Structural Integrity: There are visible signs of deterioration, such as cracks in the walls, ceiling, or flooring, raising concerns about the overall structural integrity of the unit. Addressing these issues promptly is necessary not only for the property's longevity but also for the safety and well-being of its occupants. I would like to remind you of your responsibility, as stated in our lease agreement, to maintain the property and ensure that repairs are made promptly. Failure to fulfill these obligations not only violates the terms of our agreement but potentially infringes upon my rights as a tenant under California State law. In light of the aforementioned issues, I kindly request that you take immediate action to rectify these problems. Please provide a written response within [reasonable time-frame, e.g., 10 business days] outlining the specific steps and timeline for addressing each maintenance concern. It would be greatly appreciated if you could consult professionals for their expertise, as necessary, in order to ensure comprehensive and effective repairs. If the repairs are not made within the aforementioned timeline, and this matter is not promptly addressed, I may be left with no choice but to explore legal remedies available to me as a tenant. However, I sincerely hope this can be resolved amicably to avoid any further inconvenience or disruption. I look forward to your prompt attention to this matter and the resolution of the aforementioned maintenance issues. Should you have any questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at [your contact information]. Thank you for your immediate action on this urgent matter.
