Hello ,

Thanks you for the mail and your sincerity,i really understand how you feel sending the refundable deposit payment before the keys was sent to you via UPS.I just want you to have it at the back of your mind that the deposit is highly Refundable, because you sound septic from your email, and thats very wrong, if you are thinking that I just wanted to take your money for nothing. When I known how people worked and earn their money, I will never think of taking some advantages over you and your money, please take that out of your mind, that is really awful thing on the earth that I will never think about doing. Please understand me better, I was not trying to lure you into this, everything about me and my apartment are 100% real ok,

I tried to look for an agent that I could give the document & the keys before I left but could not find any as a matter of urgency. And I don't want home misused in my absence that is why I took the keys and documents along with me and you would be the only occupant of this unit as renting this room will give you access to the rest of the house and you won' t have no one to share anything with. So I hope you will promise me to take very good care of the house always.

But if you still don't feel comfortable with my condition,you can probably look for another apartment somewhere else,I'm just very sorry that i wont be able to meet up without confirming the Refundable security payment because i don't want the past ugly incident to occur to me again where by i fly down there to show a tenant the apartment on my arrival i realize this tenant are not ready yet with the apartment so i just wasted my money and time for nothing that was why we with the package via ups.

Thanks for understanding and hope to read back from you as soon as you can

Best Regards
