Hello,

Thank you for reaching out regarding the one-bedroom apartment advertised for immediate rental. I'm pleased to provide further details about the property, which is fully furnished and well-equipped. As the owner, I seek a responsible tenant who will appreciate and maintain the flat. You'll have the apartment entirely to yourself, without any flatmates, and I currently reside and work in Cardiff.

Below are the rental terms and security deposit details:

Property Address: 26 Gayfield Square, Edinburgh EH1 3PA

Rent: £700 per month (All bills inclusive with no additional or hidden charges)

Security Deposit: £700 (Refundable at the end of your tenancy)

Move-in Fee: One month's rent plus the security deposit

Couples: Allowed

Minimum Stay: 1 Month

Maximum Stay: 1 Year, with the option to extend the tenancy after 12 months

Property/Room Amenities: TV, high-speed internet, washing machine, dryer, toaster, dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator, etc.

I want to emphasize that I am a considerate and honest landlord who takes great care of my property. I've invested significantly in maintaining it and hope to find a tenant who will treat it with the same level of care and respect. It's essential that you keep the apartment clean and tidy throughout your stay.

Before proceeding, I have a few questions for you:

1. Can you ensure the proper care of my property while I'm away for work?
2. What is your full name?
3. Where are you currently located?
4. What is your nationality, age, marital status, and profession?
5. How many people will be living in the apartment?
6. Is this your first time renting a property?
7. When do you plan to move in?
8. Please provide your phone number (WhatsApp if available).

All the amenities in the apartment are in good working condition. I prioritize open communication and a positive relationship with my tenants, so if any issues arise, please inform me promptly, and I'll ensure they are addressed without delay.

Please note: While the property is furnished, I can accommodate your preferences if you wish to bring your own belongings or furniture into the apartment.

I've attached pictures of the room for your reference. Feel free to reach out with any questions or special requests.

Warm regards,
John
