furniture, too, since it only has a sofa and a bed.
Mark: Right.
Louise: The price was good, though. Only $600 a
month – much cheaper than the other ones we’ve
looked at so far.

Louise: Well, that one had a huge living room.
Mark: Yeah. But it’s pretty dark. I guess it doesn’t get a
lot of light because it’s on the ground floor.

neighborhood, and there’s a lot of traffic.
Mark: I guess that’s why it’s only $700 a month. The
kitchen was pretty small, too. I don’t think there’s
room for a refrigerator.
Louise: That’d be a problem. I suppose we could put one
in the living room.
Mark: Maybe. I was happy with the bedrooms, though.
Two bedrooms would be great. We could use one
as a study.
