Hi everyone, Kindly help me in finding my mistakes in the below writing

You are due to move into a rented apartment next month but you will not be able to because you have some problem. Write a letter to your landlord

Explain the situation
Describe your problems
Tell him when you thing you can move in


Dear Mr.Steve,
I am Arun. I am your new tenant who has signed a rental agreement for your apartment at 25, Creams road, block 258, level 6, Singapore two weeks before. I hope you could have remember me.

As per the agreement, myself along with my wife supposed to move in by next month 1st onwards. I am afraid I will not be able to occupy the flat as I had agreed.

Unfortunately, during my vacation to my native last week in India, I had met with an accident, which causes a severe injury in my back bone. Doctor advised me to be in bed rest for at least next two months from now. Due to my physical condition, I have made necessary arrangements in my office to purse my work from home.

However, I will definitely pay your rental amount without fail starting from next month. I believe, you don't have any issues with this regard.

I hope to move in to your flat at Creams road, starting from next to next month 1st.

Yours faithfully,
Arun

I write this letter to inform you that there will be a small delay in moving into this apartment due to some unavoidable circumstances.
You should tell the reason for writing the letter in the first paragraph (introductory para) itself.

.... yes, it is important to tell the reason why you are writing the letter in the intro.

As per the agreement, myself along with my wife supposed to move in by next month 1st onwards. I am afraid I will not be able to occupy the flat as I had agreed.

Unfortunately, during my vacation to my native last week in India, I had met with an accident, which causes a severe injury in my back bone. Doctor advised me to be in bed rest for at least next two months from now. Due to my physical condition, I have made necessary arrangements in my office to purse my work from home.

These should be in one paragraph. You explain the problem - you signed up and agreed to move in next months, but now that you have a problem.

Unfortunately, during my vacation to my native last week in India,

.... I don't understand what you are trying to say here :(
