IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Formal Business — Housing

Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.

You want to end your flat rental contract one month earlier than agreed because your job is moving to another city. Write a letter to your landlord. In your letter: • explain the change in your job • propose the earlier leaving date • offer to help find a new tenant or pay a fair amount for the final month

Examiner focus: Negotiating out of a contract: reason, dates, and a concession offered before it is demanded.
