Hey, can you tell me a little more about the apartment's lease terms? Are they negotiable? I'm a Stanford student and we're on the quarter system, so I would need the lease to continue through the end of June instead of the end of May.
I think we could work something out.  It's only a 30 day extension correct?
Yes, that's correct.
Will you still want to move in August?
Could I move in September instead? Our classes don't start until mid-September. 
September 1 to August 31 I could make that work.  Will it be just for yourself?
Awesome. I've got three Stanford friends with me, so they'd be in the other bedrooms and would also move in on September 1.
ok.  will you be able to afford $1998 per person per month?
Honestly that amount is a lot more than I'm comfortable with, since I'm on student loans. But since you're willing to change up the lease terms regarding move-in and move-out date, I can be a little flexible. Could you do $7000 from all four of us, per month?
I can do $7095 per month and all four of you will have to fill out a rental application.  I will go ahead and waive the $35 credit check for each person.  That will save you all $140 on the application process.
Ok that works. Thanks so much.
sure no problem
