Seller: Hello
Buyer: Hello! I like what I see with your listing but it is way to much for my budget. Would you be willing to negotiate the price?
Seller: Well, the asking price is $1800. Consider that the home has been updated throughout. It is right on the golf course. So, if you are are golfer, it doesn't get much better than this.
Buyer: I agree, but with the costs of utilities in the area and the taxes, your price is a bit high. What If I signed a 3 year lease instead of just a one year lease? Also I would be willing to pay more if you paid some of the utilities.
Seller: Well, the $1800 does include water and sewer. If you are willing to take care of that yourself I can lower the price.
Buyer: If you can do the gas and electrical I can pay the water and sewer. And if you are amenable to a 3 year lease I would be willing to do $1350. 
Seller: Do you golf? The $1800 also comes with green fees to the golf course. I could take the fees off of the price and go as low as $1450.
Buyer: That sounds reasonable. For $1450 I would be willing to do a 2 year lease. 
Seller: Ok, sounds good.
