Buyer: Is this listing for an apartment or the house?
Seller: This listing is for a duplex. 
Buyer: Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't read that at first. Is it close to town or shopping? Like grocery stores or school?
Seller: Yes, it is very close to a local strip mall, within walking distance. There is a whole foods and a chick fil a so this is a very hot location.
Buyer: Oh, I love Whole Foods! Does it come with any amenities like washer/dryer, dishwasher?
Seller: Yes, it has a dishwasher and you will have your own personal washer dryer. Samsung appliances, brand new last year. 
Buyer: That sounds fantastic! I am very interested but I just can't comfortably afford $3,395. Would you take $2,500?. 
Seller: I am willing to negotiate on the price a little. I could drop the price down significantly if you are willing to forgo the parking spot
Buyer: That's a pretty big loss.. Is there street parking?
Seller: Yes there is, however parking is a hot commodity so that space is worth a significant discount. I would still let you store a bicycle in the garage. You could fit a grocery bag in the basket of your bike.
Buyer: I probably should walk more anyway... Alright, what would you be willing to let me rent it for without the parking spot?
Seller: $2600 without the spot. That should be within your budget?
Buyer: Yes! Thank you, new landlord!
