Unit 5. Housing and living arrangements. Dialogue one. Renting an apartment.
Speaker 2:Hello. How can I assist you today?
Speaker 3:Hi. I'm interested in renting an apartment.
Speaker 2:Great. Do you have a specific location or neighborhood in mind?
Speaker 3:Yes. I'd prefer somewhere close to downtown.
Speaker 2:We have several properties near downtown. What size apartment are you looking for?
Speaker 3:I'm looking for a one bedroom apartment.
Speaker 2:Do you have a budget range you're working with?
Speaker 3:I'd like to keep it under $1,200 a month.
Speaker 2:That's helpful to know. Do you need any specific amenities?
Speaker 3:Yes. I'd like a place with a gym and laundry facilities.
Speaker 2:We have a few options that meet those criteria. When would you like to move in?
Speaker 3:As soon as possible, ideally by the end of the month.
Speaker 2:Perfect. Could I schedule a few property viewings for this week?
Speaker 3:Yes, that would be great.
Speaker 2:Can you do a viewing tomorrow at 3PM?
Speaker 3:Yes, I can make that time.
Speaker 2:Excellent. Please bring your ID and proof of income when you come.
Speaker 3:Will do. How long does the application process usually take?
Speaker 2:It typically takes two to three business days to process.
Speaker 3:Thank you for your help. I'm looking forward to seeing the apartments.
Speaker 1:Dialogue two. Apartment renovation.
Speaker 4:Hey, do you have a moment to discuss the renovation plans?
Speaker 3:Sure. What did you have in mind?
Speaker 4:I was thinking we could start with the kitchen. It really needs an update.
Speaker 3:I agree. What changes are you considering?
Speaker 4:Maybe new countertops and a modern backsplash.
Speaker 3:That sounds great. Do you have a budget in mind?
Speaker 4:Yes. I was thinking we could spend around $5,000.
Speaker 3:That sounds reasonable. Should we also update the appliances?
Speaker 4:Good idea. A new stove and fridge would be nice.
Speaker 3:Absolutely. We should visit a few stores to compare options.
Speaker 4:Definitely. What about the bathroom? It could use some work too.
Speaker 3:For sure. Maybe we could do new tiles and a vanity.
Speaker 4:I like that. Do you think we can do any of the work ourselves?
Speaker 3:Some of it, but we might need professionals for the harder tasks.
Speaker 4:I agree. Let's make a list of what we can handle and what we need help with.
Speaker 3:Good plan. When do you think we should start?
Speaker 4:How about we aim to begin next month?
Speaker 3:Sounds perfect. Let's get this place looking amazing.
Speaker 1:Dialogue three. Apartment sitting.
Speaker 5:Hi. Thanks for entrusting your apartment to me. So what should I do?
Speaker 6:First, can you water the plants every other day?
Speaker 5:Sure. I'd love to. Do you have specific instructions?
Speaker 6:Yes. The big fern needs more water. Just make sure the soil is moist.
Speaker 5:Got it. Any special instructions for the others?
Speaker 6:The succulents only need a little water, just enough to keep them from drying out.
Speaker 5:Okay. I'll keep an eye on them. What about mail and packages?
Speaker 6:Could you check the mailbox daily and bring in any packages?
Speaker 5:Absolutely. Is there a spot you'd like me to leave them?
Speaker 6:Yes. You can put everything on the entryway table.
Speaker 5:Perfect. How about trash and recycling?
Speaker 6:Trash goes out on Tuesday night and recycling is every other Thursday.
Speaker 5:Thanks for clarifying. Anything else I should be aware of?
Speaker 6:Just keep an eye on the thermostat. Try to keep it around 72 degrees.
Speaker 5:No problem. I'll make sure to do that. Do you have any pets?
Speaker 6:No pets, but please make sure the windows are secure when you leave.
Speaker 5:Will do. Is there anyone I should contact in case of an emergency?
Speaker 6:Yes. You can call my neighbor, missus Johnson. She's very helpful.
Speaker 5:Great. I think I've got everything covered. Enjoy your trip.
Speaker 6:Thanks again. I'm sure everything will be in good hands with you.
