Hi, are you interested in renting this beautiful home? 
Very interested! Is there wiggle room on the price?
I'd be open to a little negotiation, what are you comfortable paying? 
Well I'd like to pay closer to $2400 if that is possible
Hmm, that's a little low for me. If I covered utilities, would you be able to pay $3000? 
That is a good deal I think I could do that!
