EMAIL ABOUT YOUR HOME

Before You Write
Read Susans email. Complete the chart with information about Susans apartment.

Hello Sandy,

Yes! We finally moved to our new apartment last week. We like the new place. Its new,
and its in a nice area of the city. More importantly, its not as expensive as the old place.
The rent is much lower.
Of course, its much smaller than the old place. It doesnt have as many windows, and
there isnt enough closet space. But were going to buy a new dresser, so thats OK.
I just wish we had a bigger living room and more space for furniture so we didnt have
to sell our sofa.
When are you going to come and see our new place?

Susan
