[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Notice of Premises Leaking During Rain and Demand for Immediate Repair Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to bring to your attention a significant issue with the premises that requires immediate attention and repair. Firstly, I would like to emphasize my appreciation for providing me with such a comfortable living space. However, over the past few weeks, I have encountered a persistent problem with leaks during rainfall. Despite my best efforts to manage it, the issue has worsened, causing discomfort and potential damage to my personal belongings. It is essential to note that these leaks compromise the habitability of the property and can lead to further damages if not promptly addressed. I kindly request your urgent assistance in resolving this matter to eliminate any present and future risks associated with the leaks. To provide a clearer picture of the situation, I have documented each incident and the areas affected. I have observed leaks primarily in the following areas of the premises: 1. [Specify the location of the first leak] 2. [Specify the location of the second leak] 3. [Specify the location of the third leak] These areas have become potential hazards, as water seeping through can damage the structural integrity of the property, pose electrical risks, and create an environment susceptible to mold and mildew growth. The leaks have also proven to be disruptive to my daily life, causing inconvenience and anxiety. Given the severity of the situation, I kindly request that you arrange for immediate repairs to address the leaks and prevent any further damage. I understand that adverse weather conditions can cause unexpected maintenance issues, but it remains the responsibility of the landlord to ensure the property is safe and habitable for the tenant. As per the terms outlined in our lease agreement and the North Carolina Landlord-Tenant Law, I expect repairs to be completed within a reasonable timeframe (usually 30 days) to avoid breaching the implied warranty of habitability. I kindly request that you keep me informed of the repair schedule and any necessary steps I need to take to facilitate the process. In the event that repairs are not promptly initiated, I may be forced to explore legal remedies to protect my rights as a tenant. However, I hope this can be resolved amicably and that we can continue to maintain a positive landlord-tenant relationship. I suggest scheduling a convenient time to assess the damage and discuss the repair process in more detail. Please contact me at your earliest convenience to arrange a suitable meeting time. I appreciate your immediate attention to this matter and your prompt action to rectify the situation. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
