Hello,

My name is XXXXXX and my friend and I are both mature Pharmacy students at the University of Toronto and are interested in the apartment you are looking to rent. My cousin forwarded me this email because the apartment is closer to my school than hers. Do you have any pictures available of the interior?

Thank you for your time,
XXXXXXX
