Seller: Hello...
Buyer: I am looking for a first floor large 1 bedroom/1bat
Seller: Great. That is what is available. The list price is 1895 and it has a lot of great amenities and is in a really great location.
Buyer: I am only looking for a 1bd/1bth. That price is too high for me. I was looking for something under 1200. 
Seller: The price of this 1 bedroom /1 bath is dictated mostly by location unfortunately. But we are willing to negotiate the price a bit.
Buyer: How far can you bring the price down? It is not in the center of town. I would still have to take public transportation and also the laundry is not in my unit so that is an additional cost and concern I have to pay.
Seller: This gated community, with a swimming pool is very ideal. We could loser the price to about 1700 if that would help.
Buyer: The pool and gated community are nice but many communities have that for a lower price and again it does not have private laundry and so I have to pay extra for that as well. The highest I would be willing to pay would be 1400
Seller: In order to maintain the security of a gated community and upkeep for things like a swimming pool with a lifeguard on duty, we could not lower the rent by such a large amount. The lowest I could possibly go would be 1600
