[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Concerns Regarding Unauthorized Entry into Rental Property Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a recent incident that has caused me significant distress and concern. Regrettably, it has come to my attention that unauthorized entries into my rental property have been occurring without my prior knowledge or permission. As you are aware, I have been residing at [address of the rented property] in Coral Springs, Florida, which is covered under our rental agreement dated [start date of lease]. My rights as a tenant are protected by both the terms stipulated in our lease agreement and the Florida landlord-tenant laws. According to Section 83.53(2) of the Florida Statutes, a landlord is required to provide reasonable notice before entering the rented premises. However, on [specific date(s) of the unauthorized entry], I discovered evidence that someone had accessed my rental unit without any notification or valid reason. This invasion of my privacy and the breach of our rental agreement is not only concerning but also a violation of my rights as a tenant. I must emphasize that unauthorized entry into my rented premises creates an environment that undermines my sense of safety, security, and well-being. As a tenant, I have the right to peaceful enjoyment of the rental property, free from any intrusion without prior notice unless it is an emergency situation. These unauthorized entries have compromised this right, and I feel it is crucial to address and rectify this issue promptly. I kindly request immediate action to address this matter and ensure that such unauthorized entries do not occur in the future. Here are the steps I propose: 1. Conduct an investigation: I request a thorough investigation to determine the identity of individuals who have entered the property without my consent. This will help address any concerns or suspicions regarding the motives behind these entries. 2. Reinforce notice requirements: Please adhere strictly to Section 83.53(2) of the Florida Statutes, which states that you must provide me with reasonable notice before entering the premises, ensuring that my privacy and rights as a tenant are respected. I expect that proper notice will be given for any future entries, except in emergency situations. 3. Provide written apology: An apology for the unauthorized entries and the resulting violation of my rights would be greatly appreciated. Additionally, it is essential to emphasize that regular maintenance and inspections for the property should only occur with proper notice. This helps maintain transparency between us, fostering a respectful and professional landlord-tenant relationship. Should steps not be taken to rectify this situation promptly or if further unauthorized entries occur, I will be compelled to exercise my rights under the law, which may involve filing pertinent complaints with the relevant authorities. I trust that you value our professional relationship and will take immediate action to address this matter adequately. Please acknowledge receipt of this letter within [reasonable time frame, e.g., five business days] and keep a copy for your records. I look forward to a prompt resolution to this issue so that we can continue to maintain a harmonious landlord-tenant relationship. Yours sincerely, [Your Full Name] [Your Signature] Enclosure: None.
