Buyer: I'm interested in the house you have for rent. How old is it?
Seller: Built in the 80s,the move in date is July 2017 and it's very spacious
Buyer: It seems pretty ideal, but I am on a budget, and I have my eye on a few other places. I'm looking to spend closer to $1600, but I'm willing to negotiate on the price.
Seller: It's Fremont.  You can barely get yourself an apartment for $1600 that is centrally located like this.  At the asking price, it's quite a steal.
Buyer: I'm sure it is. Money is tight for me, that's all. Will you accept $1920?
Seller: What I can do, is lower the asking price a bit and ask for 1/2 the deposit.  How does $2700 sound with only $1000 deposit.  We can also change it to month-to-month agreement, so you can leave anytime you want.  How does that sound?
Buyer: I can do $2080 and the regular $2000 deposit price.
Seller: $2500 a month / $1000 deposit.  final offer. :)
Buyer: Thank you, considering my math on the deposit was totally off. I must need more coffee, haha. I accept your offer of $2500.
Seller: I accept, enjoy the place.
