Seller: Hi, are you looking for a place in Fairfield?
Buyer: Yes I am and this place looks awesome but over my budget. Can you work with me?
Seller: Yes I can, I am able to offer your some other perks as well that might even it out for you a bit, do you have any questions about the apartment?
Buyer: Yes, are utilities included and does it have washer and dryer hookups?
Seller: The washer and dryer are included and the utilities is something that I am authorized to offer you as an extra, if you are willing to come in this week and start the process?
Buyer: I can most definitely do that if the price is right. Since the place is so small, I'm willing to offer $800
Seller: I understand your position with the minimum wage in CA being only 10.50.  Do you have a good job here?
Buyer: Not yet which is why I can't pay too much until I have stable income.
Seller: I see, well maybe this would help you out some.  The difference between 800 and 1500 is about 700.  If you are good with maintenance type of work and can show some good work then I need some help around with some of my rentals.  I can pay you at about 10 per hour and allow you to work for about 10-20 hours per week and we could put 500 towards that difference and then you can keep the extra and that will also give you time to look for a solid job.  How does that sound to you?
