FAQs+
Can I attach photos and previous maintenance requests?
Yes. You can append copies of photos, inspection records, prior emails or letters, repair estimates, and relevant lease pages behind the generated request.
Does this letter let me withhold rent or end my lease?
No. Those remedies depend on the lease and applicable state or local law. This workflow creates and mails a written repair request; it does not determine or exercise a legal remedy for you.
Should I use Certified Mail?
Certified Mail is available when you want a USPS mailing and delivery record. Check your lease and local requirements because a particular delivery method may be required.
What address should I use?
Use the notice address in the lease or the current address designated by the landlord or property manager. PostalForm does not discover the legal notice recipient for you.
