If necessary, please ensure that any rewiring or repairs are conducted by a qualified professional to maintain compliance with the local electrical code. Paragraph 5: Consequences of Inaction I want to emphasize the seriousness of this matter and the potential consequences associated with neglecting these repairs. Should you fail to address these concerns within a reasonable timeframe, I may be forced to exercise my rights as a tenant, including but not limited to withholding rent, reporting this matter to necessary authorities, or seeking legal remedies to enforce the repair and guarantee our safety.
