Subject: Urgent Notice: Significant Repairs Required at [Tenant's Address] [Date] [Landlord’s Name] [Landlord’s Address] [Cedar Rapids, Iowa ZIP Code] Dear [Landlord’s Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a pressing issue regarding the condition of the rental property located at [Tenant's Address] in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Despite our previous discussions and reminders, I regret to inform you that the necessary repairs have not been made, and this situation is now negatively impacting the quality of my tenancy. Firstly, I want to emphasize my commitment as a responsible tenant who takes pleasure in maintaining a clean and safe living environment. However, the following issues must be resolved promptly to ensure that the property remains up to code and habitable: 1. Plumbing: The bathroom's sink constantly leaks and drips, causing mold growth and persistent moisture issues. Furthermore, the shower drain is clogged, resulting in stagnant water accumulating and posing a potential health risk. 2. Electrical: Several electrical outlets in the kitchen and living room have become loose, presenting a safety hazard. Additionally, the overhead light fixture in the bedroom has stopped functioning altogether. 3. Structural Integrity: The ceiling in the living room has developed a sizable crack, raising concerns about its stability. Moreover, the windows in the bedroom no longer close properly, leading to drafts, energy wastage, and security vulnerabilities. 4. Heating and Cooling: The HVAC system is dysfunctional, making it impossible to regulate the indoor temperature adequately. This results in uncomfortable living conditions during both extreme weather conditions, compromising my well-being. 5. Pest Infestation: Despite previous notifications, the property remains infested with rodents. This poses health risks, damages personal belongings, and diminishes my overall living experience. I kindly request that immediate action be taken to rectify these issues. As per the lease agreement, it is your responsibility as the landlord to ensure that all necessary repairs are made in a timely manner. I would appreciate your prompt attention to the matter by initiating a thorough assessment of the aforementioned problems and arranging for licensed professionals to come and fix them. Should you choose not to address these concerns promptly, it may become necessary for me to seek legal remedies or terminate my tenancy agreement due to the premises becoming uninhabitable. I hope it does not come to that, as I genuinely enjoy living here and would prefer to resolve these issues amicably. Please acknowledge receipt of this letter within the next five business days and inform me of your intended actions to remedy the situation. I kindly request regular updates until the repairs have been successfully completed. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that you will take immediate action to ensure the property is restored to a safe, comfortable, and habitable state so that I may continue to enjoy my tenancy.
