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. Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. I am writing to discuss a matter regarding the recent rent increase notice I received for my apartment at [address] in Elizabeth, New Jersey. Firstly, I would like to express my gratitude for providing a comfortable living space and maintaining our landlord-tenant relationship over the years. However, I was disappointed to learn about the rent increase mentioned in your notice dated [date]. Upon reviewing the notice, it became evident that the advance notice period required by New Jersey state law was not followed, leaving me feeling both surprised and burdened by the sudden change in my financial obligations. As a responsible tenant, it is essential for me to plan my finances in advance, and this insufficient notice has made it challenging for me to adapt to the sudden increase. According to New Jersey Tenant Rights and Responsibilities, landlords are obligated to provide tenants with at least 30 days' notice before implementing any rent increase. Unfortunately, the notice I received falls short of that requirement. As such, I kindly request that you reconsider the rent increase and adhere to the proper legal guidelines in providing ample notice. Having been a reliable tenant for [number of years] and always fulfilling my rent payment obligations on time, I believe it is reasonable to expect open and transparent communication regarding any changes, especially those affecting my financial commitments. I understand that rent increases may be necessary due to rising costs, maintenance expenses, or other factors, but it is imperative that tenants receive appropriate notice and understand the reasoning behind the increase. As a result of the insufficient notice, I have been put in a difficult situation where I need to reevaluate my monthly budget and plan accordingly. It is my sincere hope that we can address this matter in a mutually beneficial manner, respecting the legal requirements and maintaining a healthy landlord-tenant relationship. I kindly request a prompt response to this letter, outlining your intentions regarding the rent increase notice and any potential rectification for the insufficient notice period. I believe that open communication and understanding can lead us to an agreement that satisfies both parties. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I trust that we can swiftly resolve this issue. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Tenant's Contact Information] [Date]
