Reference request — tenancy at {old_address}

Body

Hi {old_landlord_name},

Hope you're well. I'm looking for a new place in Dublin and a few landlords have asked for a reference from my previous tenancy at {old_address} ({start_date} – {end_date}).

Would you mind writing a short reference confirming:
- I paid rent on time
- I kept the property in good condition
- I was a respectful housemate/neighbour

One or two lines is plenty. They may also contact you directly by phone or email — is it OK to pass on your details?

Thanks a lot,
{your_name}
