Tenant Reference Letter Template
A landlord or employer reference for a tenancy usually needs to confirm employment and income stability, or previous rental conduct. Keep it factual — this document is used in a financial assessment.

Common questions
Am I obliged to give a reference?
Generally no, unless your contract or local law requires it. If you do give one, it should be accurate and fair — inaccurate references can create legal exposure in some jurisdictions.
What if I cannot give a positive reference?
Decline, or provide only the factual confirmation of dates and job title. A deliberately lukewarm reference is understood as a negative one by everyone reading it.
Should I include my contact details?
Yes. A reference without a verifiable contact carries very little weight.
