Letter from Tenant to Landlord regarding Illegal Entry by Landlord in Wayne, Michigan Subject: Urgent Matter — Concerning Illegal Entry and Violation of Tenant's Privacy [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to address a distressing issue that recently occurred which requires your immediate attention. It has come to my knowledge that you, as my landlord, have entered my rental property without providing proper notice, violating both my rights as a tenant and our agreed-upon lease agreement. To begin, I would like to reference the Michigan Landlord-Tenant Act, which clearly outlines the rights and responsibilities of both parties involved, specifically regarding the landlord's access to the rental unit. Section 554.134 states that a landlord must provide at least 24 hours' prior written notice before entering the property, except in cases of emergency. I am confident that you are aware of this legal requirement but have chosen to disregard it. On [date of illegal entry], I was not provided any notification of entry, nor was any emergency situation communicated to me. To my disbelief, I discovered evidence of unauthorized access upon returning home. This unauthorized entry not only breaches our lease agreement but also leaves me feeling violated and concerned about my privacy and security. As a responsible tenant, I understand the importance of maintaining the property in a satisfactory condition. However, it is essential to uphold the boundaries and rights inherent in our landlord-tenant relationship. Unilateral actions such as this are not only unprofessional but also create an atmosphere of distrust and discomfort that should not exist within a legally-binding contract. I kindly request an immediate explanation for this breach of privacy and an assurance that it will not happen again in the future. Please understand that this violation has left me feeling uneasy and concerned about my safety and privacy within the rental property. As a tenant, I have the right to enjoy a peaceful living environment, free from unwarranted intrusions. In light of this incident, I respectfully request a written response within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 7 days] acknowledging your understanding of the situation, detailing the exact circumstances that led to the unauthorized entry, and explaining the measures you will take to ensure this violation does not reoccur in the future. Additionally, please provide me with your contact information, including an emergency contact number, should any urgent matters arise that require immediate attention. Rest assured that my intention is not to escalate this matter further or engage in any legal disputes. However, I do trust and expect that you will treat this issue with the seriousness it deserves, respecting both my rights as a tenant and our legally-binding agreement. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I hope we can resolve this issue in an amicable manner, ensuring a harmonious landlord-tenant relationship moving forward. Sincerely, [Your Name]
