Dear _________________:
      Landlord's Name

     I have received your notice that my rent is being 
increased.  I received the notice on _________________.
                                      (Date Received)

     According to the our written rental agreement, my rent is 
to be $_______ until that agreement terminates on ___________.
                                                      (date)  

     In accordance with the written rental agreement, your 
proposed rent increase will not go into effect until the rental 
agreement becomes due to renew.  I will pay rent at my current 
rate on this rental due date and will pay the increased amount on 
the following rental due date.

     I hope that this letter will clear up any confusion about 
the legal requirements for notice of rent increases.  Thank you 
for your attention to this matter.

                         Sincerely,

                         ______________________
