In Writing Solutions helps you write your repair notice in your own words, with up to six photos. For $19, paid once, we email the same PDF to your landlord and mail it by USPS Certified Mail to the address where you pay rent. The USPS tracking is saved with your notice. A certified letter can go unclaimed. You read the notice before anything is sent.
