Dear Mark I have moved into the apartment you advertised in the newspaper for rent. It's been a month I moved here. but I must tell you that I am having troubles in living here.

Dear Sir, Hope you are doing well. The apartment is really spacious and the environment is calm and beautiful, but when enquired about the apartment the advertisement specified on having stable electricity and that was an important and much needed for me as I work from home. But there are daily cuts that disrupt my work and my daily routine. It is difficult for me as I need to stay connected with my client on a daily basis for the smooth flow of the work. The rent that I am paying is 20,000rs and the agreement is for a year, but due to the power failure I would vacate the house and for the short of my stay I would request for a power back-up (UPS) for support and smooth flow my daily routine. Thank you [Your Name]
