Dear [Tenant's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to notify you of an upcoming change regarding your rent at your current Orange, California residence. First, let me begin by expressing my gratitude for being a responsible tenant and for taking care of the property. It has always been a pleasure having you as a resident. However, due to the current rising costs of property maintenance, utilities, and overall inflation, I must inform you of an increase in your monthly rent. Effective [insert date], your rent will be increased by [insert percentage/amount]. This adjustment has been calculated based on market rates in the Orange, California area and aims to fairly reflect the current rental value of the property. I understand that any increase might bring about challenges, and I apologize for any inconvenience caused, but this step is necessary to sustain the property's maintenance and ensure its continued improvement. Please find attached a revised lease agreement reflecting the new rental amount for your reference. I kindly request your signature on the lease agreement by [insert deadline — usually 30 days from the receipt of this letter] to acknowledge your acceptance of the adjusted terms. If, for any reason, you find it difficult to accommodate this rent increase, I am open to discussing alternative solutions that would work for both parties. I value our landlord-tenant relationship, and I would be willing to explore possibilities such as a longer-term lease commitment or specific property improvements in exchange for a more manageable rent adjustment. As always, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, concerns, or if there is anything else I can assist you with. I am readily available to address your inquiries and to discuss this matter further. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. I appreciate your prompt attention to this important issue. Best regards, [Your Name] [Landlord's Contact Information] [Property Address]
