How do I write a letter to pay a tenant to move? Any free templates online?

Friday, January 15th, 2010

Want to type up a letter to pay a tenant to move/give tenant a decision to take the money or stay. Is there any example letters out there to do this? ANY letter would be of help.
TO 1st answer: According to an attorney we can only offer to pay this tenant to move. It’s quite complicated (we’ve talked to attorney’s and numerous landlord advisors)…in my case it is easier to pay them to move; we are in a rent controlled area; it would be in our best interest to get them to move this way. we will be able to get someone in there to pay what the apt is worth in our area and get the $ back quicker; even in our rent controlled area the apt is worth twice as much as what the tenant is paying; we can only raise rent at a certain percentage and we are not getting anything out of her paying what she’s been paying before i purchased the bldg.

Dear Mr. Tenant,

I wish to sell my home (enter reason or make something up), I know your lease is good for another (X months). I know it is a hassle to move & I want to make this as easy as possible for you. I will offer to pay for your moving costs, plus your first month’s rent in your new place. I am also willing to refer you to a property management company, who may be able to assist you in finding another apartment or house to rent.
Please let me know if this is favorable to you.

Thank you,

(your name here)

How to write cover letter to a place with no job advertised?

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

Hello,

I graduate college in May, and I thought now would be a good time to start on the job hunt thing. There’s a company out of state I really want to work for. I want to send my resume to them, along with a cover letter. I know how to write a cover letter, however I’ve only ever written cover letters to places that had a job advertised. How do I write one when there is no job advertised? What should I include in the letter??

Thanks for your help in advance!

I’d highly advise on writing targeted cover letters which target specific positions. If there is a specific type of position in which you are interested in at the company but didn’t have the job description, I would search online for similar jobs which may have the same job duties and write as if that position existed at your targeted company of interest.

If you were aiming to write a universal cover letter which could apply to any position I believe the following breakdown of a cover letter can help greatly:

—————–
Your Name
Address
Contact number
Date

Company Name

Address

Dear Mr./Ms./Dr

(address the letter to a general title like dear hiring manager)

Immediately available, skilled, personable, experienced and I have great passion for the profession!

(include a attention grabbing headline, bold the text)

First Paragraph:

The first paragraph should always answer these questions:

1) What is your reason for writing?
2) What types of roles are you applying for?
(include interested duties)
3) How did you hear about the organization?
4) Is your resume attached?
5) Do you believe the organization will benefit from your qualifications?

Second Paragraph:

The second paragraph should answer these questions:

1) What skills can you bring which match that within the job spec?
2) Do you have any professional accreditation?
3) Are you passionate about working there / why?

Third Paragraph:

The third paragraph should answer these questions:

1) What interests you about the organization?
2) What interests you about the types of work/duties?
3) What do you like about organization from the brief review of it?

Fourth Paragraph:

The third paragraph should answer these questions:

1) When are you available again?
2) Will you contact them and when?
3) Thank them for their time and consideration here
4) What are your contact details again?

Yours Sincerely
