[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Response to Notice to Terminate for Noncompliance — Noncompliant condition due to Landlord's deliberate/negligent act Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing in response to the Notice to Terminate for Noncompliance that I recently received from you. I would like to discuss the noncompliant condition that has arisen in the property I am renting from you. As per my understanding, this noncompliant condition is a direct result of your deliberate and negligent acts, and I would appreciate your attention to this matter. Firstly, I would like to state that I have been a tenant at [property address] for [duration of tenancy], and during this time, I have diligently fulfilled all my obligations as a tenant. However, it has come to my attention that the noncompliant condition referred to in your notice is not due to any actions (or inaction) on my part, but rather a direct consequence of your deliberate/negligent acts as the landlord. It is important to emphasize that as the property owner and landlord, you have a legal responsibility to ensure that the premises are safe, habitable, and in compliance with all applicable housing codes and regulations. This includes promptly addressing any necessary repairs, maintenance, or other issues that may arise during the tenancy. Unfortunately, the noncompliant condition in question has made my living situation uncomfortable and potentially hazardous. I have documented the issue thoroughly and attached photographs as evidence for your reference. [Alternatively, I have video evidence that substantiates my claim and can be made available upon request.] I kindly request that you take immediate action to rectify this noncompliant condition. Considering that it was caused by your deliberate/negligent acts, I expect that any repairs, replacements, or other necessary actions will be completed at your expense. I also request that you provide me with a specific timeline and plan detailing when and how this issue will be resolved. I must emphasize that the noncompliant condition poses a risk to my health, safety, and well-being, as well as potentially being in violation of applicable housing laws. Should you fail to address the situation promptly and effectively, I may be forced to seek assistance from local housing authorities, legal counsel, or take any necessary legal actions to protect my rights as a tenant. I believe it is in both parties' best interests to resolve this matter amicably and in a timely manner. I value the productive relationship we have had thus far and, as such, I remain hopeful that you will take swift action to address this noncompliant condition caused by your deliberate/negligent acts. Furthermore, I look forward to your prompt response and resolution to this matter. Please feel free to contact me at [Phone Number] or [Email Address] should you require any further information or wish to discuss this matter in more detail. Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
