Description

This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. Dear [Landlord/Property Manager], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring your attention to some urgent repairs that are needed in my rental unit located in Los Angeles, California. As per my rights as a tenant, I kindly request that these repairs be addressed promptly to ensure the safety and habitability of the property. First and foremost, the plumbing in the unit requires immediate attention. There have been recurrent leaks in the bathroom and kitchen faucets, which have caused water damage to the surrounding areas. The leakage is not only inconvenient but also poses a threat to the integrity of the property, potentially leading to mold or structural issues. I demand that a professional plumber be hired to fix these leaks and prevent any further damage. Furthermore, the electrical system in the unit is faulty and poses a serious risk to me and other tenants. There have been frequent power outages, flickering lights, and malfunctioning outlets that have caused inconvenience and potential hazards. It is imperative that a certified electrician be dispatched to thoroughly inspect and repair the electrical system to eliminate any safety concerns. Additionally, the roof of the building appears to be in poor condition. There have been visible signs of water stains on the ceilings and walls, indicating a possible roof leak. This not only jeopardizes the structural integrity of the property but also poses a risk to my personal belongings and health in case of further water intrusion. I urge you to have a professional roofer assess the situation and undertake any necessary repairs immediately. Lastly, the cooling and heating system in the unit has not been functioning properly. The air conditioning unit fails to cool the space adequately during the scorching Los Angeles summers, and the heating system struggles to provide adequate warmth during the colder months. This not only affects my comfort but also raises concerns regarding energy efficiency. I expect a qualified HVAC technician to be sent to address these issues promptly. As a tenant, I have the right to a safe and habitable living environment, as outlined by California law. Failure to address these repair requests in a timely manner would be considered a breach of those responsibilities. I kindly request that you initiate the necessary repairs within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 14 days] of receiving this letter. Please respond in writing within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 5 days] with your plan of action to rectify these issues. In the event that these repairs are not completed within the specified time frame, I may be left with no choice but to pursue legal remedies available to me to ensure my rights are upheld. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I hope for a swift resolution to these repair requests. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
