Create next steps instructions for demand letter? #561

Open KelizaMcGuire opened 2 hours ago

There are currently no next steps instructions for demand letters (just complaint, inspection request, and repairs request).

Should we create a version that is specific to demand letters?

KelizaMcGuire commented 2 hours ago

@crwayne @nonprofittechy Considering that demand letters should really have proof of receipt, do we want to add instructions specifically for demand letters to the generated docs?

I don't usually recommend tenants do return receipt request for demand letters because the recipient can refuse service. There is a presumption of receipt when you mail something.

Tenant can mail it both ways for safety

Hmm, okay. MLH said you should send it both ways even though it isn't legally required to have a return receipt. But, that makes sense. We could just use that same language in the instructions then?
