[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Notice to Withdraw Retaliatory Rent Increase Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address the recent rent increase that I have received for [property address]. I believe this increase is in retaliation for exercising my rights as a tenant, specifically for [mention specific action taken by the tenant, e.g., reporting maintenance issues, filing complaints with authorities, joining a tenants' union, etc.]. Furthermore, I would like to remind you that as a tenant, I am entitled to certain rights, including the right to quiet enjoyment of the property, the right to a safe and habitable living environment, and protection from retaliatory actions. The retaliatory rent increase I received not only violates my rights but also undermines the healthy landlord-tenant relationship we have maintained thus far. It is crucial to note that my actions were taken in good faith and were intended to ensure that the property met the necessary standards for safety, habitability, and fair treatment of tenants. As such, this rent increase is not only contrary to the principles of a fair tenancy but also discourages tenants from reporting legitimate concerns and maintaining a harmonious living environment. I kindly request that you reconsider the retaliatory rent increase and withdraw it immediately. Our mutually beneficial relationship as tenant and landlord should not be undermined by such actions, as it is in both our best interests to maintain a positive and cooperative living arrangement. I believe that together we can find a satisfactory resolution to any concerns or issues that have arisen, without the need for retaliatory measures. I am more than willing to engage in a constructive dialogue to address any misunderstandings or potential issues that may have led to this situation. If you fail to withdraw the retaliatory rent increase within [mention a reasonable timeframe, e.g., ten days], I will be left with no choice but to seek legal remedies. This could involve lodging a formal complaint with the relevant authorities, seeking legal representation, or even considering legal action to protect my rights as a tenant. I hope it doesn't come to that, and we can resolve this matter amicably. I appreciate your prompt attention to this issue and kindly request that you acknowledge receipt of this letter. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Sincerely, [Your Name]
