Unit 2

I am looking for a place to lease1 near here.

I am looking for a place to rent near here.

How big of the place do you want to lease?

How big of the place do you want to rent?

I want to rent a furnished apartment.

I want to lease a furnished apartment.

I am here to see the apartment you’ve advertised.

I’d like to see the apartment you’ve advertised.

I want to show you the house.

I’d like to show you the house.

Let me show you the house.

What’s the rent?

How much would you charge them?

Dialogue one:

M: I heard you are looking for a house.

W: Yes.

M: How is this going?

I haven’t found one that satisfies my demands yet.

I can recommend an apartment for you. A friend of mine is about to move. She doesn’t want to rent that house any longer.

Where is the house?

It is on Spring Avenue.

Really! So it is just near my office building. Great! How much is the rent?

It’s $240 a month.

Does that include utilities2?

It includes water, but not gas and electricity.

That’s a little expensive.

But it’s very convenient for you to walk to work.

Yes. I won’t have to take a bus to go to my office. Is it a one-bedroom apartment?

Yes, it is.

That is what I am looking for. Could I go to see the house tomorrow afternoon?

Certainly! But I have to contact my friend first.

All right! Thank you.

Dialogue 2:

Are you looking for an apartment?

Yes, I am interested in finding3 a one-bedroom apartment near Washington Square.

I think I have just a right apartment for you.

Oh, good. Can you describe it?

Yes. It has one bedroom, a large living space and 4 kitchens.

So is there a refrigerate?

Yes, it’s brand-new.

It sounds great. How much is the rent?

It’s $8.50 a month.

When can I see it?

We can take a see by there now if you like. The landlord4 left me a set of keys with me.

Ok, that would be great.

Dialogue 3:

M: Wow, it has a balcony.

Yeah. Complete with nice of you.

How many windows are there in the apartment?

Mm, let me see. I think there are 2 in the bedroom, and 1 each in the living room and kitchen.

It’s just what I want. I think I am ready to sign.

I call the landlord right now.

Before you send the lease, do you have any questions?

Yes, does the renting include utilities?

It includes everything except cable5 TV, and telephone.

How much is the cable?

It usually comes out about $40 a month.

Also, are they allowing the apartment?

No, I am afraid the apartment isn’t permitted.

I see. Do you love pets?

Sorry, that’s out of question. I don’t have a problem with it. But, unfortunately, the building doesn’t allow it. It’s a building regulation.

I see. The real doesn’t mention the parking lot. Could you tell me about it?

Yes, you can part in front of the building. The rent for parking space is $16 a month.

Ok, I am ready to sign. Should I pay by cash or check?

It’s up to you.
