You will persuade the landlord to change these clauses before you sign the lease. To organize your thinking, you must prepare a formal outline of how you will put your essay together. From this outline, you are to prepare a letter to the landlord that explains in your own words why each of the things you identified is a problem for you. You must identify the clause and detail how you would like to change the items you selected to make the lease acceptable to you.Be aware this is both a letter and an essay in APA formatting, it might feel weird as a letter but we are practicing APA formatting here.
