Today I was showing a prospective tenant through a property. A couple in fact. An elderly, still very much in love, don’t you just love that, awww, couple. Approximate age; early 80’s. They are viewing the property and loving it. I’m loving them. It’s perfect.
Then it happened.
She said: We’re very interested. How can we apply?
Me said: I have forms available, do you have copies of your identification? Blah Blah Blah.
He said: Well go on, just ask her.
She said: Dear, would you be able to ask the owner for a two year lease with an option for a third year. Do people still do that? Do you think it would be ok.
Me said: Sure, I can ask…
She said: Do you think that too long… Hmm, no probably not. Hopefully we don’t die.
Me said: stunned silence… huh!?
He said: Nooo, we’ve got two years left, surely.
She said: I think I could still manage this home if you were gone, could you?
Me said: Ummm, yes, I’ll ask shall I.
Heehee. Cute. Happy Thursday! Welcome Friday.
