Furthermore, upon thorough research, I have discovered that under Oklahoma City's tenant protection laws, a landlord is required to provide a written notice of at least thirty (30) days before implementing any rent increase. This statute is designed to safeguard tenant rights and ensure fair treatment in cases of rent adjustments. In light of this information, I kindly request that you reconsider and reconsider your decision to increase the rent before providing the legally stipulated notice period of thirty (30) days. I am confident that by adhering to established legal and contractual norms, we can continue to maintain a positive and mutually beneficial relationship.
