POSITIVE REPLY

Dear Sir’

I have a great regard for you as a good tenant. Bearing in mind the good relations we are having and continue to have’ I reduce the rent from Rs. 850/- a month to Rs. 750/- with effect from March 1993. But the fact of this reduction must be kept private so as not to disturb other tenants. I hope you will appreciate my offer.

Yours faithfully’

Ramzan Azhar.

NEGITIVE REPLY

Dear Sir’

I am in receipt of your threatening letter. I am already charging you much less rent than even the Municipal Corporation charges me by way of House Taxi for the premises occupied by you. Therefore’ I do not think that I can be persuaded to reduce the rent. But if you want to seek reduction through the Rent Control Act’ I will not stand in your way.

Yours faithfully’

Ramzan Azhar.

ANOTHER NEGATIVE REPLY

Dear Mr. Wali-ur-Rehman.

I am sorry to have troubled you’ but it was on purpose that I withheld the payment of your rent. As I have repeatedly drawn your attention’ repairs to my flat have long fallen overdue. As you have not fulfilled your promise of effecting the repairs’ I am myself planning to do the same and deduct the cost from the rent payable. Hope you would appreciate my difficulties and approve this arrangement.

Thanking you’

Yours faithfully’

REFUSAL TO REDUCE RENT

Dear Sir’

I am surprised to note that you are persistently asking for reduction in rent as also for renovations and repairs. I regret to say that neither of the two demands id possible of fulfillment in the near future. Your rent was fixed when houses were many and tenants few. Since then you know everything has gone up—- wages’ prices’ or expenses on building material etc. —- but I am charging you the same rent as you paid ten years back. Therefore’ I request you to undertake all the repairs yourself. Also think in terms of increasing the rent in accordance with the rise in the cost of building material.

Yours faithfully’

PARTIAL PAYMENT

Dear Mr. Sakhwat Shah’

I am in receipt of your reminder. But I regret my inability to pay three month’s rent this very month. I however’ promise to pay you for two months now and for two months in February making the payment up to date. I hope you will approve of the arrangement.

Thanking you.

Yours faithfully’

Dear Sir’

I will not ask you again to reduce rent’ although you charged me a high rent at very start of my tenancy. At that time I did not mind it because of my flourishing business which has since met with an adverse fate. Yet I must insist on urgent repairs. I will withhold payment of rent till you have made the building worthy of human habitation and commensurate with the rent you are charging.

Yours faithfully’

THREAT TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION

Dear Sir’

I have to call our attention to the fact that rent due from you for the last four months for the premises occupied by you had not been cleared despite many promises made by you. I request you once again to clear the same at your earliest’ not in any case later than the last day of the current month’ otherwise I shall be compelled to take such steps as may not to your liking.

Yours faithfully’

Dear Sir’

I regret to inform you that the tone of your letter has more than distressed me. As you know I am one of your oldest tenants and have by now paid you enough money by way of rent to cover the entire cost of building a flat like the one now occupied by me. Besides’ I am experiencing same unexpected financial difficulties nowadays’ but rest assured you rent will be paid’ come what may’ next month. I hope you will exercise patience for some time more.

Thanking you’

Yours faithfully’

Dear Sir’

With reference to your letter dated—-‘ I beg to inform you that you cannot raise the rent under the Rent Control Act. Please’ therefore’ note that I am not going to pay you at the enhanced rate. You are’ however’ free to take the matter to a competent Court for judgment. Rent from next month will be sent to you by M.O. or deposited in Court.

Yours faithfully’
