Description

It is a letter from Tenant to Landlord containing a notice to landlord to improper notice of a rent increase was given for the month-to-month lease. This notice informs Landlord that according to law the rent increase will not take effect until a date different used by the landlord. Subject: Concerns Regarding Insufficient Notice of Rent Increase in Cary, North Carolina Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my concerns about the recent notice of rent increase I received for the [name of the property] located in Cary, North Carolina. While I value and appreciate your efforts to maintain the property and provide a comfortable living environment, I believe there may have been insufficient notice given for this adjustment. First and foremost, I would like to acknowledge my understanding that rent increases are a common occurrence in the rental market. However, according to the laws and regulations of North Carolina, landlords are required to provide tenants with reasonable advance notice of any changes in rent. In particular, the North Carolina General Statutes Section 42-14 specifically stipulates that a 30-day written notice is required for rent increase notifications. Unfortunately, I received this notice just [number of days] prior to the proposed rent increase, which does not adhere to the legal requirements outlined by the state. This insufficient notice has placed me in an inconvenient position without adequate time to assess the proposed change, evaluate my financial obligations, and explore other possible housing options. As a responsible tenant, I strive to fulfill my rental obligations in a timely manner while maintaining a harmonious landlord-tenant relationship. However, the lack of adequate notice has created unnecessary stress and financial hardship for me. I kindly request that you reconsider the timing of this rent increase to ensure that we are in compliance with both state regulations and the principles of fair and open communication between landlord and tenant. In light of this situation, I suggest the following courses of action to address the issue and find a mutually beneficial resolution: 1. Extend the effective date of the rent increase by an additional [number of days] to allow for ample consideration and adjustment to my budget. 2. Provide a detailed explanation for the rent increase, including any factors that may have influenced the decision such as maintenance or operational costs. This would enable me to better understand the rationale behind the adjustment. 3. If possible, offer alternative options that might make the rent increase more manageable, such as a phased implementation plan or a lower increase percentage aligned with the local market rates. I would greatly appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and an amicable resolution. I believe that open communication and fair treatment are key components of a healthy landlord-tenant relationship. Furthermore, I value your dedication to maintaining a pleasant living environment and recognize that this notice may have been an oversight. With your cooperation, I am confident that we can find a mutually agreeable solution. Thank you for taking the time to consider my concerns. I look forward to your prompt response, preferably in writing, to address the issue at hand. Should you require any additional information or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at your earliest convenience. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Tenant's Address] [Tenant's Contact Information]
