[Description of Property and Relevant Repairs Needed] First and foremost, I would like to provide a detailed account of the issues that require your immediate attention. These concerns directly affect the habitability, safety, and sanitation of the property: 1. Plumbing System: The plumbing system in the property is in dire condition. There are frequent leaks within the piping, resulting in water damage to various areas of the property. It has become a constant inconvenience, causing water pressure fluctuations and potential mold growth. Swift plumbing repairs are necessary to avoid further damage and prevent any health hazards. 2. Electrical System: The electrical wiring and fixtures within the property are outdated and faulty. I have experienced frequent power outages and electrical surges, posing significant safety risks to myself and fellow occupants. I demand a complete inspection by a certified electrician to identify any potential hazards and an immediate remedy to ensure the safety of all residents. 3. Structural Integrity: There are evident structural issues throughout the property, including cracks in the walls and ceilings. These damages have significantly worsened over time, potentially compromising the stability and safety of the building.

[Optional] You are hereby granted the right to enter the property to assess and carry out the required repairs. Please provide advance written notice to ensure my availability at the appointed time. [Consequences of Non-Compliance] Failure to address these concerns and take prompt action will leave me with no alternative but to seek legal recourse to protect my rights as a tenant. I may be compelled to file a complaint with the appropriate housing authorities, take legal action for breach of lease, withhold rent, or pursue any other available remedies provided by law. I trust that you will take this matter seriously and make the necessary arrangements for the repairs without any further delay. It is in the best interest of both parties to ensure a safe and habitable environment for all involved.
