Your landlord is asking to increase the rent. Write a letter to him. In your letter, you should tell: why you think the rent shouldn’t be increased what you will do if it is increased.
Dear Mark
I hope you and your wife are doing well . I am writing
this
letter to share my concern regarding the proposal of inclining the rent by you . As you know I am jobless and a newbie in this
city . Moreover
, I am living in a room on a shared basis .
After researching the average rental price I get to know that I am giving the right amount .Also
, I am paying a 30% utility bill so I can't afford more than this
. Unluckily , I don't have any
car either so my transportation bill is quite high too. I am expecting that you will think about my situation before increasing the rent or if you are unable to change your decision I can look for another rental place at the same rate. I am hoping and requesting that you will change your mind. Your kindness will be highly appreciated.
Kind Regards
