Rental references
I've been looking online at properties to let and most seem to require references. What kind of references are these? Do we have to bring something from the UK? Will a bank or employer reference do?

Usually you would just write two referrees name and address's on the application form you need to complete when you find somewhere. My property agent did not check them though.

Just remeber here often you are 'competing' for a property. They have open days, people view and if you want it you have to apply and be 'chosen'. Offering a sum to help lay a claim does help with some real estate agents too. Good luck |
Re: Rental references
i was also told writting a statement about yr family works well as well.
get written ref from yr new job saying that oh has a job so can afford the rent. get refs from friends etc old work etc estate agent also said if you rented a holiday home ask them to give you a ref the people we rented our holiday home with in april readily agreed to do a ref |
Re: Rental references
I've been told to get a ref from our uk neighbours about our dog!! Not sure if it applies to any of you, but if you are hoping to rent with a pet it might be an idea.
Just to say that he is an outside dog and well controlled etc :D |

Re: Rental references
No!!! But I have spoken to someone who says it doesnt matter and that they know because I've trained in uk I'll have my 40 deliveries, just these forms dont actually admit that do they :sneaky:
Apologies to op for hijacking the thread a bit xx |

some are just anti pets - if thats the case though, the pet bond may persuade an agent/landlord to let to you anyway. If pets are allowed, dont even mention it though. The pet bond isnt a norm just a way of possibly securing a rental thats advertised as 'no pets'. By offering an extra bond for the pets, the l/lord knows if you cat/ dog damages the property they are covered. Also offering fumigation for fleas goes down well IF you're having problems |
