Mari: Okay, that sounds good. I also have a pet, I have a small dog. What is your policy on pets?
Shirley: Well, actually a number of people that live in the flats are owners so usually even though there is a policy that renters can’t have an animal it depends pretty much on the owner residents. So usually if the pet is small and well-trained and well-behaved they’re fairly accommodating. So is your pet used to living inside?
Mari: Yes, my dog is used to living inside. It’s very quiet.
Shirley: Okay then, that probably won’t be a problem. I’ll just need to talk to the cooperative about it. So are you thinking that you would like to take one of the flats?
Mari: Yes, I’m thinking about taking one of the flats.
Shirley: And which one would you be interested in?
Mari: I would like the one with a very nice view.
Shirley: Okay, overlooking the bay, so that would be $900 a month.
Mari: Right.
Shirley: Okay then, well, perhaps we can talk about what our policies are for payment and some other financial matters.
Mari: Sure.
Shirley: Okay great. Let me just go inside and I’ll get a pen and some papers for you.
Mari: Thanks.
