# TENANCY REFERENCE LETTER

Date: 1 March 2030

Parties: Harbour Homes Limited and Aisha Rahman

## 1. Status of this document

Harbour Homes Limited of 90 Gloucester Road, Bristol BS7 8AE provides this reference for Aisha Rahman and Omar Rahman, who occupied Flat 6, 22 Meadow Lane, Bristol BS7 0QJ under an assured shorthold tenancy from 1 March 2027 to 28 February 2030.

## 2. Parties and subject

The rent was £1,350 per calendar month, payable in advance. Our records show payments were made on time except for a three-day delay in October 2028, which was corrected immediately and did not become arrears. The final rent account is paid in full.

## 3. Facts and request

The tenants kept the flat clean, reported a leaking tap promptly, permitted reasonable inspections and complied with the no-smoking and no-short-term-letting terms. We received one noise enquiry from a neighbour, which the tenants addressed after a single reminder.

## 4. Evidence and checks

The check-out report records ordinary wear and tear, no chargeable damage and all keys returned. The £1,350 deposit was protected with the Deposit Protection Service and returned in full on 8 March 2030 after final meter readings.

## 5. Procedure and deadline

Subject to the receiving landlord's own affordability, identity and right-to-rent checks, Harbour would be willing to let to Aisha and Omar again. This reference is based on our records and direct experience, not a guarantee of future conduct or ability to pay.

## 6. Rights and remedies

We disclose this information in good faith for the proposed tenancy at 4 St George's Terrace, Bath BA1 2NE. It must not be used for unrelated marketing, and personal data should be handled consistently with UK GDPR and the recipients' privacy duties.

## 7. Records and signature

Please direct verification questions to references@harbourhomes.example. Harbour accepts no duty of care to a third party relying beyond this stated purpose, but will correct a material factual error it can verify. The authorised property manager signs on 1 March 2030.
