Unfortunately, I'm presently, presenting an apartment to a family who flew from Detroit and will be here to give them the keys, show them inside and also help them settle down as its stated in our agreement. I Won’t be available to do a showing/viewing because i do general showing on every 3rd weekend of the month but I took the liberty to do a Video tour of the apartment since I won’t be available, attached below is the video tour of the apartment . I have a full time job and i mostly work on weekends but can schedule an appointment to meet you at anytime after 6PM in the evening once booking has been made. Just to let you know, you have the correct address and information of the unit and you can go ahead to check out the neighborhood at your own conveniences. If still interested, i will forward you the rental documents. kindly fill it out, sign them and forward it back to me before proceeding with the payment.

After the agreement and payment is taken care of, i will take this apartment off market for you, reserve the apartment for you, come down to give you the keys, show you around if not familiar with the neighborhood and help you settle down if needed on your preferred date. I can also fix a date I will fly down to show you the Apartment before you move in once the paperworks and payment is done (if needed).
The home is exactly has seen in the picture and the parking is monthly. You can go ahead and view the neighborhood of the house and surroundings/area at your own convenient time. I can also give you a guarantee in writing that the unit is "as is" as seen on craigslist ad as per the listed features, amenities, furniture and finishing, If otherwise your money will be refunded back to you immediately.
There is a storage room available separately with no extra/additional price and charge to be paid. Just to assure you that you are in safe hands and dealing with a legitimate private company, i have attached a copy of my drivers license ID, my licensed property certificate and certificate for real estate agents. Also, attached is the video tour of the apartment it’s exactly as posted on Craigslist.

Form of payment is Cash Deposit/Wire Transfer to the private owner/attorney’s account and once the payment is confirmed i can issue you a copy of the rental receipt/invoice which you will use to pick up the keys on your arrival/move in date.

Kindly get back to me if you are still interested so I can send you the Rental Agreement Booking form to fill for reservation/immediate move in and you can proceed to payments to the Attorney/Private property owner’s account added on the rental agreement booking form. Also, i want to know if your paying for two months upfront and get one month free or will do month to month so i state it on the booking form before sending it to you.
