Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could arrange a time for us to conduct a walkthrough of the premises together to ensure that we are on the same page regarding the condition of the property. This will allow us to document and discuss all outstanding maintenance issues and their required resolutions. In accordance with Allegheny Pennsylvania state laws, I kindly request that you preserve all written communication, records, and notices related to this matter.
