Gresham Oregon Letter from Tenant to Landlord: Notice of Uninhabitable Premises and Demand for Immediate Repairs [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Notice of Uninhabitable Premises in Violation of Law and Demand for Immediate Repair Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention the current state of the premises I am renting at [Rental Property Address] in Gresham, Oregon. Unfortunately, the condition of the property has reached an uninhabitable state, which constitutes a violation of the law. I kindly request that immediate action be taken to address the below-mentioned issues. 1. Unsafe Electrical Wiring: Upon thorough inspection, it has come to my attention that the electrical wiring within the premises poses a significant risk to both our safety and the safety of the property itself. This condition violates the Oregon Fire Code and poses a potential fire hazard. It is crucial that a licensed electrician is called in to assess and repair the electrical system promptly. 2. Plumbing and Water Damage: The plumbing system within the property is severely compromised, leading to continuous leaks, mold growth, and water damage throughout the premises. This not only creates unsanitary living conditions but also increases the risk of structural damage to the property. It is imperative that a qualified plumber is hired immediately to rectify these issues. 3. Heating and Ventilation: The heating and ventilation systems are non-functional, making the property uninhabitable, especially during the cold Oregon winters. This contravenes the Oregon State Tenant Law's requirement for suitable heating facilities. I kindly request that a professional HVAC technician is brought in to restore heat and ensure proper airflow throughout the property. I would like to emphasize that these issues are serious and demand immediate attention. The current conditions of the property violate my rights as a tenant, as well as Oregon's landlord-tenant laws. Please be aware that failure to undertake the necessary repairs within the legally allowed time frame will compel me to seek legal remedies to address these violations. I request that you provide a written response to this letter within [reasonable time period, typically 7-14 days] outlining the proposed actions to rectify the mentioned issues. Additionally, please arrange a time convenient for both of us to conduct a joint inspection of the property to thoroughly assess the scope of repairs required. I trust that you understand the severity of the situation and will take immediate steps to rectify the uninhabitable conditions. I value our working relationship and hope we can resolve this matter amicably and swiftly. Failure to address these issues will regrettably leave me with no choice but to initiate legal proceedings and involve relevant authorities, as necessary. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your timely response.
