I can't believe I'm even setting this price so close to the city, but here I am.
Hi I was interested in the place and was looking to negotiate terms. 
I'm starting at $2750/month with a $3500 security deposit, and a required credit check. 
It's a great place bit it's a little high compared to other renters in the area. 
This place has tons of space, anyone in the area is charging at least 50% more for this much area. 
I'd be willing to pay 2275 and pay my own utilities every month. 
I can't go any lower than $2500, but I could lower the security deposit to $3000. 
2475? I could move in next week after everything is approved.
