For renters dealing with difficult landlords
The Renter's Companion Toolkit is a small, practical library of repair requests, escalation letters, security-deposit demands, and checklists — written from a real dispute, not generic legal boilerplate.
One-time purchase. No subscription. Yours to keep.
Honest positioning
This isn't a replacement for free legal aid like HOME Line — it's what helps you act while you wait, or when calling isn't an option.
Six working sections, each built to move a situation forward.
Date-stamped request templates with statutory deadlines and what to log when a landlord goes quiet.
Measured, firm scripts for when the first request lands nowhere — escalating without sounding hostile.
Itemized demand letters, deduction checklists, and the Minnesota timeline that keeps deposits honest.
Recognizing and documenting retaliation after you've asked for repairs, with protective language.
Notice templates and step-by-step checklists for ending a tenancy cleanly and on the record.
Free, real resources — HOME Line, tenant unions, and local aid — with notes on when each one helps.
Free sample
Before you buy, try one real template. Drop in your address, the repair, and the date — it puts a dated, on-record request in your landlord's hands. This is the same letter that lives in Section 01 of the full toolkit.
Who this is for
Renters who've had one too many unanswered messages — and want a calm, organized way to put their case on the record before it gets worse.
What this isn't
Not legal advice and not a law firm. It's templates and checklists to help you organize and act — pair it with free legal aid for anything serious.
From experience
I fought a deposit dispute and a repair battle the slow way. I built these so the next person skips the weeks I wasted guessing.
Every template, checklist, and script — in one place, yours to keep.
