 A:     Hi! We are the Christianson’s! We are here to see

       the apartment.


 B:    Oh, hi! Sure, come on in! Well, as you can see,

       the place has just been renovated 1. The previous

       tenants 2 left a huge mess here, so the landlord has

       redone everything.


 A:    It looks great. It’s so bright and airy! What great

       light! I really like these hardwood floors. What’s

       the square footage of this place?


 B:    Well, it’s about 120 square meters, or 1300

       square feet, more or less. Oh, the landlord has

       also installed new kitchen appliances. There’s

       a new dishwasher, and a professional-grade gas

       range. Really, at this price, this place is an amaz-

       ing deal!


 A:    I love it! But what are the payment terms?

 B:    First and last month rent as deposit and rent is

       due on the 1st of every month. Considering the

       amount of money invested into the apartment, it’s

       a very good deal!


 A:    Yes, it is! Too good to be true...


 B:    The living room and dinning 3 room are quite spa-

       cious as you can see, and down this hall, here’s

       the master bedroom.  It has a huge walk-in closet

       and an en suit bathroom. We can’t go in there yet

       as the police... I mean the clean up crew hasn’t

       finished.


 A:    What do you mean? What’s in here?
