Hello Keith,

The pictures I sent to you is exactly what I am renting out to you and I am available to arrange a viewing anytime. But it is always an issue inviting people to come and view which has brought about great loss to me. Some do not have the money to pay the rent nor the deposit, yet they disturb the landlord for viewing.

Nevertheless, you would need to pay upfront holding deposit of 500 into my solicitors bank account to secure the flat. The holding deposit would be substituted for the refundable security deposit once you are willing to proceed with the rent after viewing. My solicitor will need some information from you to draft an Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement which I will send to you together with other document which you will print, sign and email back to me the signed copy.

Your full name: Keith xxxxx
Current address: Ashford, Kent
Confirmed move in date: 27th Nov 2017
Confirmed move out date: unknown
Mobile number: xxxxx

Please get back to me with these information so that I can tell you how to proceed.

Regards
Robin S.

Hello Keith,

Thank you for the interest you have in my flat. I am a private landlord and I am willing to offer to you the flat for a short/long term. You would be required to give four weeks notice if you decides to terminate the tenancy.

The flat is fully furnished and the facilities present are all new, so I am looking for a responsible and clean tenant.

I am reliable and open. If anything went wrong in the flat, I will make sure the problem is quickly rectified. Nevertheless, I have been disappointed lately with unserious people when it comes to viewing so I would appreciate your sincere reply. I scheduled a viewing with someone few weeks ago and I was highly disappointed because she didn't have enough money to rent the flat or pay for the security deposit.

I look forward to reading from you.

Regards
Robin
