Dear …

Re: Repair to common areas at [your address]

I am writing about repairs that are required in the common areas of the building where the unit I am renting from you is located.

There are extensive stains on the carpet outside my unit and the glass windows at the entrance are cracked and I believe constitute a health and safety risk, especially to children. In addition the intercom does not work.

I notified you of these repairs on [date] and still no repairs have been done. I would ask that you take these repairs as a matter of urgency to the owners corporation so repairs can be arranged as soon as possible.

If the repairs are not attended by [date], I will be forced to seek orders from the Consumer, Trader and Tenancy Tribunal. .

Please contact me on [phone number] during work hours to arrange a convenient time for the repairs to be done.

Yours sincerely
