Ad found on craigslist for a rental home in Marysville, WA for a very low amount. My inquiry brought the following response:
Thanks for your response and interest in my house.The house is very much available and it is charming 3 bedroom home for rent in Marysville, WA USA.Which was formally occupied by me and my family before we left for Nigeria for a doctoral duty under a missionary, we left for a volunteer mission together with other missionaries for a development program with the aim of developing the people of west Africa physically and spiritually as God has directed us. We wanted to sell the house initially but we later changed our mind after we discovered that we wouldn't be spending more then 5 years here in Africa.So as you know well that the house is located at 6308 70th Street NE, Marysville, WA 98270. Which my family and I have spent so much time and money to maintain it up till its standard, It has a dramatic entry foyer with ceramic floor. Extremely spacious rooms throughout with lots of big windows…nice and light! New neutral paint and some newer carpet.....Very quiet, low traffic area. New fridge I believe its absolutely a perfect home for you and your family.Utilities include Water,Trash,Sewer,Gas Etc..... We have been trying our best to make the house as clean as possible, because am a clean person and we don't like dirt around our surroundings.We are looking for a well-behaved, clean and honest tenant to rent out our house too. We will like you to give us your words and promise us that you will take good care of our house so that we will be happy when we come to visit you in the future..
