#Person1#: Hello, there. I'm Jack.
#Person2#: Hello there. Well. This is it. As you can see, it's fully furnished. You've got your TV...cable TV and broadband Internet is included in the rent. The kitchenette is over there...all fully fitted...nice new fridge and cooker, kettle, toaster, microwave...all your mod-cons. The bathroom is through there...box shower unit...sink...all new from B&Q. There's a nice view of the park from the window too.
#Person1#: Hmm...it's smaller than I thought. How much is the rent again?
#Person2#: 250 a week, plus of course, you're responsible for all fees including gas, water and electricity.
#Person1#: It said 200 in the ad.
#Person2#: Yeah, but that was for the small room upstairs and that's already gone.
#Person1#: Well, 250 is a bit too much for me.
#Person2#: Well this is London. And it is your own place...good location, near the Tube.
#Person1#: Look...I can stretch to 200 a week...I can't afford 250 plus all the other bills.
#Person2#: All right. One month's rent in advance, plus a month's deposit. That'll be 400 cash. This is the contract...read through it, initial each page and then sign at the bottom...
#Person1#: OK.
#Person2# persuades Jack to rent the house in a good location but Jack thinks 250 a week isn't affordable. Finally, #Person2# compromise to 200 and Jack will sign the contract.
