Have been asked by a neighbour to write a character reference to help her find a new place to rent as her present abode is for sale. I have never done this before and am anxious to do my best as she deserves the best. Any help would be gratefully accepted.

All you have to do is state how long you have known her and if you think she is reliable ,honest and is a good neighbour you can mention you will be very sorry to see her shift.

Hoping this helps

We have tenants. We'd be pleased to be shown a reference from a neighbor saying all those things above...
Previous landlords can speak to how good a payer she is, and how well she looks after the place, but to hear from a neighbor about what sort of neighbor she has been is very valuable I think.
