Subject: Warning: Illegal Entry by Landlord — Urgent Action Required Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a concerning issue that has occurred recently in regard to the security and privacy of my rented premises at [Property Address]. On [Date], I was shocked to discover that you, as my landlord, made an unauthorized entry into my rented space. Despite my absence and without any prior notice or valid reason, you unlawfully gained access to my home. This breach of privacy and violation of my tenant rights is completely unacceptable. As a tenant, it is my right to enjoy a safe and secure living environment, free from any unauthorized interference. Your illegal entry not only infringes upon my rights but also undermines the trust and respect implied by our landlord-tenant relationship. Under the tenants' rights regulations in New York, it is explicitly stated that landlords must provide advance notice before entering a rented unit unless there is an emergency. Therefore, I kindly request a thorough explanation for this intrusion and an assurance that such actions will not be repeated in the future. This incident has left me feeling greatly unsettled and concerned about the safety and privacy of my personal belongings. I strongly urge you to take immediate steps to ensure the security of my home and to rectify this breach promptly. I would appreciate it if you could take the following actions: 1. Provide a written apology for the unauthorized entry. 2. Acknowledge and respect my rights to privacy and security as a tenant. 3. Disclose the reasons for your entry and provide warranted evidence if applicable. 4. Ensure that no further illegal entries occur in the future. 5. Implement stricter access control measures to prevent unauthorized entry to the property. 6. Outline the steps you will take to restore my trust and confidence in your role as a responsible landlord. 7. Comply with any legal obligations or compensations that may arise from this incident. Please be aware that your actions are in violation of the rental agreement and New York tenant laws. Failing to address this matter appropriately may result in further legal actions to safeguard my rights and interests as a tenant. I expect your immediate attention to address this issue and provide a satisfactory resolution. Failure to respond or address this matter within a reasonable timeframe may necessitate taking legal recourse to protect my rights as a tenant.
