My name is Lucy Smith, and I’m calling about the flat
rental you have advertised in the newspaper. Is it still available? Jeff: Hi, Lucy. My name is Jeff, and I am the owner. Yes, the apartment is still available. Lucy: Great! Would you mind telling me a little about it? Jeff: Sure. It has one bedroom and one bathroom. Every room has carpet except for the kitchen and bathroom which have hardwood floors. Lucy: Okay. Is it a newer building or an older one? Jeff: It is located in an apartment complex and the building is about six years old, so it’s quite modern. Lucy: That sounds lovely. How far away is it from downtown London? Jeff: Well, it is about a thirty minute drive from the city center. Lucy: Wonderful. What about the price? I didn’t see one listed in the advertisement. Jeff: It’s a thousand pounds a month not including utilities. Lucy: Alright. That’s in my price range, so I’m very interested in looking at it. Jeff: Excellent! I’d be happy to show you the flat. I’m sure you will love it. Would you be able to come and see it tomorrow? Lucy: Absolutely! I could come right after work. Is six o’clock okay with you? Jeff: Yes. That’s fine. Do you need me to give you the address? Lucy: No, thank you. I see it here in the advertisement. Jeff: Okay. I’ll see you tomorrow then, Lucy. Lucy: Sure. See you then!

Emma: This is the kitchen, and as you can see, it has tile flooring and new cabinets. Andrew: Yes. It’s beautiful! Emma: Thank you. This is the master bedroom. The carpet in here is about two years old, so it’s fairly new. Andrew: Right. Emma: You can see that there is a master bathroom that is attached to the bedroom. The toilet and shower are a little older, but they’re in excellent condition. Andrew: Yes, they look almost new. Emma: Here is the family room. Andrew: I like it! It’s very spacious. Emma: Yes, it has a lot of room. Here is the other bedroom and bathroom. They are a little small, but they’re fine for guests or young children. Andrew: Sure. What about the laundry room? Emma: Right. I almost forgot. It’s beside of the master bedroom. It has a large closet, so you can hang your clean clothes after washing. Andrew: Nice! How much are you asking for the house? Emma: It’s two-hundred thousand pounds. Andrew: Okay. Thank you for showing me your home and telling me about the price. I’ll call you if I am interested. Emma: Sure. It was my pleasure! Have a great day. Andrew: You too. Bye. Emma: Bye.
