Reference Letters

When you apply for a rental it’s a good idea to include some rental reference letters. A rental reference letter provides information from your previous landlord, real estate agent or people you have lived with about what you were like as a tenant. This could include information like whether you paid you rent on time and if you took care of the property.

If you haven’t lived independently before and don’t have a housing history you can ask your employer, teacher, support worker or friends & family to write a letter on your behalf. Below are some templates that you can edit & use to help strengthen your rental application.
