[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip Code] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, Zip Code] Subject: Lansing, Michigan — Notice to Withdraw Improper Rent Increase During Lease Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention an issue regarding the recent rent increase that has been implemented during the term of my lease. I have noticed that the rent increase is improper according to the laws and regulations that govern rental properties in Lansing, Michigan. As a responsible tenant, I have researched and familiarized myself with the rights and responsibilities of both the landlord and tenant in Lansing. According to Section [insert relevant section number] of the Lansing Rental Housing Code [or another applicable regulation], it clearly states that landlords are prohibited from increasing the rent during an active lease agreement, unless otherwise stated in the lease agreement or upon mutual agreement by both parties. Upon reviewing my lease agreement, it is evident that there are no provisions allowing for a rent increase during the term of the lease. Therefore, I kindly request that you withdraw the improper rent increase and revert to the original rental amount as agreed upon in our lease agreement. I expect this adjustment to be effective immediately. In the event that you were unaware of this provision, I kindly request that you rectify the situation promptly to avoid any potential legal complications. I believe it is in both our interests to comply with the laws governing rental properties and maintain a healthy landlord-tenant relationship. I encourage a fair and amicable resolution to this matter and would appreciate your prompt attention. As a good tenant, I have consistently paid my rent on time and taken care of the property as if it were my own. I hope this issue will not impact our positive landlord-tenant relationship, and I trust that you will address this matter appropriately. I request a written response acknowledging the withdrawal of the improper rent increase within [insert a reasonable timeframe, usually 7 to 14 days] from the date of this letter. Furthermore, I appreciate your attention to this matter, and I look forward to a favorable resolution. Please feel free to contact me at [your phone number] or [your email address] if you require any additional information or if we could arrange a meeting to discuss this further. Thank you for your prompt attention and cooperation. Sincerely, [Your Name]
