Matriva Unveils Unified Tenant Referencing Platform with Identity Verification and Affordability Checks
New end-to-end referencing flow combines identity verification, affordability assessment, employer references and rental history in one application
"Referencing has been broken for years. Landlords wait weeks for incomplete reports, tenants fill in the same forms repeatedly, and agents juggle spreadsheets and email chains."

Matriva has launched a unified tenant referencing platform that brings identity verification, affordability assessment, employer references and rental history into a single, streamlined application flow.
The new referencing system allows landlords and letting agents to request a comprehensive reference report in minutes rather than days. Tenants complete one application, and Matriva coordinates the verification of identity documents, income, employment status and previous rental history automatically.
"Referencing has been broken for years. Landlords wait weeks for incomplete reports, tenants fill in the same forms repeatedly, and agents juggle spreadsheets and email chains," said Mike Georgeson. "Our platform collapses the entire process into one application with a clear, trackable status at every stage."
Key features of the referencing platform include:
- Identity verification through bank-holder matching and document checks
- Automated affordability assessment comparing income to rent using the 30x rent guideline
- Direct employer reference requests with automated follow-ups
- Previous landlord reference collection with verified rental history
- A shareable reference report that tenants own and can reuse for future applications
The platform also includes a standalone reference option, allowing landlords and agents to purchase individual reference credits without a subscription, making it accessible for occasional landlords with a single property.
