Fayetteville North Carolina Letter from Tenant to Landlord with Demand that Landlord Repair Broken Windows [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: URGENT REPAIR REQUEST — Demand for Broken Window Repair at [Rental Property Address] Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a significant issue that requires immediate attention and action — the broken windows at my rented property located at [Rental Property Address] in Fayetteville, North Carolina. Firstly, let me assure you that I have been a responsible tenant, adhering to all the terms and conditions of the lease agreement and promptly paying my rent. However, the broken windows pose a serious threat to my safety, well-being, and security within the property. It is also essential to note that windows that are not properly maintained can lead to further damage within the property due to exposure to the elements. The broken windows have caused several concerns, including: 1. Security Risk: The damaged windows compromise the security of both myself and the property. This situation leaves us vulnerable to potential break-ins, thefts, and even personal harm. Repairing the windows is crucial to restoring a secure living environment. 2. Heat Loss and Energy Inefficiency: The damaged windows result in significant heat loss during colder months, leading to higher electricity bills and decreased energy efficiency. This poses an unnecessary financial burden on me as a tenant. 3. Pest Infestation: Broken windows provide easy access points for pests such as birds, insects, and rodents to enter the property. This can lead to unhygienic conditions, health hazards, and property damage, all of which are preventable through prompt window repair. 4. Aesthetic and Property Value: The broken windows detract from the overall aesthetic appeal of the property, negatively impacting its value. As a tenant, it is essential that I reside in a well-maintained and attractive home. Given the urgency of this matter, I kindly request that you take immediate action to repair the broken windows at [Rental Property Address]. I am aware of my responsibilities as a tenant, including promptly reporting any necessary repairs and maintaining the premises in good condition. However, this falls under your duty as the landlord to ensure the property is safe, secure, and habitable. I kindly request that you confirm in writing your willingness to address this issue within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 14 days]. Failure to comply with this legitimate request would leave me with no choice but to explore alternative options to resolve the matter, such as seeking legal advice, withholding rent as allowed by law, or contacting relevant local authorities. I hope that we can address this matter amicably and promptly, avoiding unnecessary inconvenience and potential legal actions. I appreciate your immediate attention to this matter and look forward to your timely response. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Contact Number] [Your Email Address]
