Employer Reference Letter
If you apply for a loan, particularly a large loan such as a mortgage, you could be asked to provide an employer reference letter. Since these loans are tied in to your salary (determining how much you can repay each month and therefore the ultimate size of the loan) the lender will need reassurances that the details you have provided are correct. An employer reference letter is used to confirm details such as your salary, length of employment and contract status, and hopefully will confirm that your situation is exactly as you stated. Finally it is important to note that if the lender does ask for an employer’s reference letter, it is not particularly because they do not believe what you have told them, it is simply one way of their being reassured that granting you a loan makes business sense to them.
