I am writing to bring to your attention a serious safety concern regarding the lights and wiring in my rental property located at [Property Address]. As your tenant, it is my obligation to inform you of any issues that may pose a threat to the property or my well-being. I have noticed multiple instances of broken lights both indoors and outdoors, as well as malfunctioning electrical outlets, switches, and wiring throughout the premises. This poses a significant safety hazard not only to me but also to other tenants and visitors who may enter the property. On multiple occasions, I have experienced power outages, sparks, and flickering lights, which are indicative of faulty wiring or electrical system. These malfunctions are not only inconvenient but also raise concerns about the potential risks of electrical fire hazards. Such unsafe conditions not only violate the terms of our lease agreement but also infringe upon my rights as a tenant to live in a safe and habitable environment. I kindly request that you take immediate action to address these pressing concerns by arranging for a qualified electrician to conduct a thorough inspection of the entire electrical system, lights, and wiring. It is imperative that any unsafe or broken lights, fixtures, switches, outlets, and faulty wiring are repaired, replaced, or updated according to the required safety standards. Additionally, I expect you to provide me with clear timelines indicating when these repairs will be initiated and completed. Repeated delays or neglect in addressing this matter could potentially create legal liabilities for both you as the landlord and me as the tenant. I reiterate that it is your legal obligation as the landlord to ensure the premises are safe for occupation and comply with all applicable building codes and safety regulations. I kindly request that you promptly acknowledge receipt of this letter and notify me in writing about the actions you will take to rectify the unsafe condition. Please be aware that if necessary repairs are not initiated within a reasonable timeframe or if the repairs are incomplete or inadequate, I may have no choice but to explore legal avenues, report the issue to the appropriate authorities, or consider withholding rent in accordance with local laws. I trust that you will treat this matter with the utmost urgency and ensure that the necessary repairs are carried out promptly to restore a safe living environment for all tenants. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I anticipate your prompt response and resolution.
