    My references for a good tenant always go something like this -

    To whom it may concern

    (tenant name) has been a tenant with us for
    (period of time). During this time they have always behaved in a responsible manner and kept the property in a very good state.

    I would unreservadely recommend
    to any future landlord.

    Please feel free to contact me for further information.

    yours faithfully

    The children must have been on extra good behaviour that day ...

    if i got this, i would assume there was a problem and would want to phone the landlord !! but then maybe i am a bit of a cynic - i would have wanted to read "paid the rent every single month on time" - thats the most important thing any landlord is looking for !!!
