Hello ,

I'm John Watson, property owner you wanted to rent. We are pleased that you have an interest in our house. Our lovely home is still available for rent, we want responsible & decent adults/family that possess qualities to manage our home as if it were theirs. My wife and i initially had it up for sale but changed our mind and decided to lease/rent it out. The agent we previously put in charge over our rental property was asking too much of an agent fee by inflating the rental fee there by making it difficult for people to afford the rent. For this reason, i decided to rent it out my self and no longer want any third party, rather a direct agreement between me and any interested tenant. I have already instructed the agent to take off the sign post from my property.

The reason why our house is up for rent is because i got transferred from my place of work to Brooklyn NY, i will be away with my family for at least 5 years or more. You can get back to me if you are truly interested, by telling me more about yourself, your previous rental experience and the time you wish to rent our home. I await your reply ASAP.

I've been in communication with them.. or at least it seems like it. The only difference in the email address is one extra "L" in "blessed" ... So sad.. thought we found the perfect place to move into..
