Employer Reference

An employer reference is often required when renting a property because it provides the landlord or letting agent with an independent assessment of the financial stability and reliability of a tenant. A reference from an employer can confirm employment status, salary, and length of employment, which can help a landlord determine if the tenant is likely to pay rent on time and take care of the property during the tenancy. It also helps to build trust between the landlord and the tenant, and can increase the chances of the tenant being approved for the rental property.

The Keyholder platform provides an easy and transparent method for a tenant to request a reference and also for the employer to provide it.
