Buyer: What a lovely house! I wonder, how high up is it? I'm afraid of heights.
Seller: Hello, thank you! It is on the side of a hill. The hill is not steep. It is completely safe and secured with a fence around it. 
Buyer: Oh that's not so bad then. I see you have an updated kitchen and bathrooms? Did you use tile and what does the color scheme look like?
Seller: We've had a decorator come and in and it has a very modern feel to it. The kitchen and bathrooms have been updated. The backyard is enclosed for privacy. I am asking $4995. 
Buyer: That is my only concern, it's a little high. I am contractor, I could keep the grounds in order for you if you can come down to...$4200?
Seller: If you are offering to tend to the grounds, there is not much of it, I could come down to $4500
Buyer: I'm sure you have other properties where I can help out, $4300?
Seller: That is the only property I have at the moment. Because of all the upgrades I have done, I am already giving you a great deal by bringing it down to $4500
Buyer: I'm sorry, but I can't squeeze blood from a stone. $4350 is the absolute most I can afford.
Seller: I can do $4450 if you can move in by the first with a deposit. 
Buyer: Can I sublet a bedroom and rent my space?
Seller: Yes, you may. 
Buyer: $4450, yeah I can come up with that. You have a deal.
