Hi, I am interested in the Apt.
Thanks for your interest, the list price is $1500.
Is everything pretty much in order?  Would you be willing to go down in price a little.  I can give you good references.
The apartment is a great 1 bed/bath apartment, walking distance to downtown, and UC Berkeley. I am open to offers as well.
I can sign a 2 year lease and will be willing to pay for the garbage also for $1100
I really can't go lower than 1250, but would be willing to do that on a 2-year lease with lessee paying garbage.
