Band 9: You are a student and are living in a rented apartment alone, and now you want to share the apartment with your friend who will also contribute to the rent. Write a letter to your landlord seeking permission for the same. Also, include: - The reason for sharing the apartment - When the friend is planning to join - Any support required from the landlord

Hello Mr. Louis,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to seek your permission to share my apartment with a friend who will be contributing to the rent. As a student, managing expenses can be quite challenging, and having a roommate will help alleviate some of the financial burden.

My friend, Mary, is planning to move in on 10th of this month. We believe that sharing the space will not only make living more affordable for both of us but also enhance the overall living experience.

If you have any specific requirements or paperwork that you would like us to complete, please let me know, and I would be happy to cooperate. Additionally, if you need to conduct any background checks or inspections prior to my friend’s move-in, I fully support that process.

Thank you for considering my request. I appreciate your understanding and look forward to your response.

Best Regards

Pearl
