Subject: Urgent Repairs Required — Notice of Broken Doors in Tallahassee Rental Property Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a critical issue concerning the doors in the rental property located at [Rental Property Address] in Tallahassee, Florida. I am a tenant in this property, and I would like to inform you that several doors within the premises are currently in disrepair and require immediate attention. As you are aware, functional doors are essential for the security, safety, and privacy of the tenants. Unfortunately, the following doors are broken or malfunctioning: 1. Front Door: The main entrance door, which is the primary access point for all tenants and visitors, is severely damaged. The door latch/lock is faulty, causing difficulty in locking and unlocking the door securely. Moreover, the door frame is loose, allowing drafts and potential intrusion. 2. Bedroom Doors: In addition to the front door, multiple bedroom doors are also in a state of disrepair. These doors are vital for maintaining privacy and security within the individual units. The lock mechanism on the bedroom doors often jams, making it difficult to open or close them properly. 3. Backyard Door: Lastly, the backyard door leading to the patio area is in need of immediate repair. The door hinge is loose, causing the door to sag, which makes it challenging to open and close. This poses a significant security risk, compromising the overall safety of the property. Given the importance of secure and functional doors, I kindly request that you address these concerns as soon as possible. The current state of disrepair not only undermines the safety of the tenants but also fails to meet the basic livability standards outlined in the lease agreement. I would like to propose the following actions to resolve this issue promptly: 1. Conduct a thorough inspection: Please arrange for a licensed contractor or maintenance personnel to inspect all the aforementioned doors to assess the extent of the damage and recommend appropriate repairs or replacements. 2. Immediate repairs: Upon receiving the inspection report, I request that you promptly carry out the necessary repairs to restore the doors to proper working condition. 3. Communication and updates: Kindly keep me informed throughout the repair process, including any anticipated timeline for completion. I believe that open communication will lead to a speedy resolution. 4. Reimbursement: If any security-related expenses were incurred due to the broken doors (e.g., extra locks, security measures), I kindly request reimbursement for such costs. As a responsible tenant, it is my duty to promptly inform you of any maintenance concerns to ensure the property's upkeep and safeguard the well-being of all occupants. I trust that you understand the urgency of this matter and will take immediate action to rectify the broken doors. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and resolution to the door issues. Please consider this letter as a formal notice and a request for repair.
