Description

This form covers the subject matter described in the form's title for your State. This is a letter from Tenant to Landlord providing notice that Landlord is in violation of the Fair Housing Act through a reduction of denial of services to familiies with children. It is unlawful to deny or discriminate in housing because of race, color, religion, sex, familial status, or national origin. Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to bring an urgent matter to your attention regarding a Fair Housing Reduction or Denial of services issue that my family and I are facing as tenants of [property address]. As you are aware, on April 11, 1968, the Fair Housing Act was implemented to ensure equal opportunity for all individuals in accessing housing, irrespective of their familial status. Unfortunately, I have recently become aware of a situation that suggests a possible violation of fair housing laws in our rented premises. It has come to my attention that certain essential services have been abridged or completely denied to my family, solely based on the fact that we have children. This denial of services or reduction thereof significantly impacts our ability to enjoy the full benefits of our tenancy and violates our rights as protected by the Fair Housing Act. Specifically, we have been subjected to the following incidents or situations: 1. [Describe the incident where services were reduced or denied] 2. [Provide details of any additional incidents or situations] It is disheartening to realize that we are facing discrimination despite our commitment to meeting all the obligations outlined in our lease agreement. As a tenant, I strongly believe that it is our right to enjoy the same privileges and services as any other tenant, regardless of our familial status. Denying or reducing services to us based on the presence of children is not only discriminatory but also unfair and unacceptable. I kindly request that you take immediate action to rectify this discriminatory practice and ensure that our family is no longer subjected to any reduction or denial of services based on our familial status. I seek your commitment to upholding the principles of fair housing and treating all tenants in this property with equality and respect. Failure to address this matter promptly may leave us with no choice but to pursue legal remedies available to us under the Fair Housing Act. I sincerely hope it does not come to that, as I believe we can resolve this issue amicably through open communication and a genuine commitment to fair treatment. I kindly request a written response from you within [a specific reasonable time frame, usually 10-15 business days] to acknowledge this letter and outline the steps you plan to take to address our concerns. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. We look forward to a swift resolution that ensures the fair and equal treatment of our family as valued tenants. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Tenant's Contact Information] [Date] Keywords: Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, letter, tenant, landlord, fair housing, reduction, denial of services, family with children.
