[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 caused by Landlord's own deliberate or 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 received from you on [date]. I have carefully reviewed the contents of the notice and would like to provide my response, as well as address the noncompliant condition that you have mentioned. Firstly, I would like to express my concern regarding the noncompliant condition. As per the lease agreement and applicable housing laws, it is the responsibility of the landlord to ensure that the rental property is maintained in a safe and habitable condition throughout the tenancy. However, it has come to my attention that the noncompliant condition mentioned in your notice was caused by your own deliberate or negligent act. I want to emphasize that I have been a responsible tenant, adhering to the terms and conditions of the lease agreement. I have promptly reported any maintenance issues to your office, and it is disappointing to learn that the noncompliant condition was a result of your actions. This situation has caused inconvenience, discomfort, and potential health hazards for me and my household. To resolve this matter, I kindly request that you immediately take the necessary steps to remedy the noncompliant condition. It is important that you rectify the issue without further delay to ensure a safe and habitable living environment for all occupants of the property. I trust that you understand the urgency of this matter and will promptly address it to avoid any escalation of the situation. Additionally, as a result of the aforementioned noncompliant condition, I kindly request a reduction in the rent for the affected period, or alternatively, reimbursement for the costs incurred due to the condition. I believe this would be a fair resolution to compensate for the inconvenience and added expenses resulting from the noncompliant condition that was caused by your own deliberate or negligent act. I trust that you will handle this matter in a professional and responsible manner, and I look forward to your prompt response indicating the remedial actions you will take to address the noncompliant condition. Please consider this letter as an opportunity to rectify the situation amicably, without the need for legal intervention. Should you fail to address the noncompliant condition adequately or choose not to respond to this letter within a reasonable timeframe, I may be left with no option but to seek legal remedies and report these issues to the appropriate housing authorities. I genuinely hope it does not come to that, as it is in both our best interests to resolve this matter in a fair and respectful manner. Thank you for your immediate attention to this issue, and I look forward to resolving this matter collaboratively.
