The letter builds live as you type.
Do's and don'ts
Do state household, employment and move-in date plainly; do mention pets up front; do keep it to half a page. Don't write your life story, don't promise above-asking rent, and don't leave gaps a complete dossier would answer.
Frequently asked questions
Do Swiss agencies even read cover letters?
For private landlords and competitive listings — yes. The letter will not save an incomplete dossier, but between two complete files it often decides who gets the viewing callback.
How long should the letter be?
Half a page. Facts agencies care about — household, employment, income reliability, move-in date — plus one personal sentence. Emotional essays hurt more than they help.
Is my data stored?
No. The generator runs in your browser; the letter exists only on your screen until you copy or download it.
