Audio Text
Woman: Our agency has quite a few apartments listed in your price range. So a lot will depend on which part of the city you are interested in
Man: I’d prefer not to be too far from downtown, or at least close to the subway
Woman: That gives us several options. You may like Luxury To wers. There are several vacant apartments there now. There is one on the top floor that has a view that’s quite spectacular. You can see the harbour very clearly from there
Man: Great. How big is the apartment
Woman: All the apartments in the building are quite spacious, and in addition to a large living room, each also has a separate dining room as well as an eat-in kitchen
Man: I’d definitely like to visit Luxury Towers. But I’d like to look in other buildings, too
Woman: Parkview Apartments will have some vacancies soon. All the ground floor apartments there have a small patio which is a very nice feature
:Man: Will any of the ground floor apartments be vacant soon
Woman: Yes, there will be one available next month. Now, if you’d like to be right downtown, I can show you some apartments on Main Street
Man: Yes, I’d like to see them
Woman: They’re the smallest apartments I have to show you, but despite that, they’re also the most expensive because of the location, you know
Man: I think it’s still worth looking at
