A New Flat

Sally: Hi Kate! I want to buy a new house. I can’t decide on which one to buy.

Kate: I can help you if you want.

Sally: Sure.

Kate: First of all, if you like landscapes, you should look for flats in the suburbs. They are both cheap and near the lake.

Sally: Yes, you’re right. I love landscapes. However, they are far from the city centre. I can’t go to the city centre every day if I get this new job in there. I’ll have to    wake up very early every day. If I had a car, I’d think positive about them.

Kate: Hmmm. Why don’t you look for the new buildings in the city centre, then? There are many new flats in the town.

Sally: Can you recommend any new flats for me?

Kate: If you have yesterday’s local newspaper, I’ll show you one of them.

Sally: Here you are.

Kate: Look at this one. It‘s right in the city centre. If you live in there, then everything will be around you.

Sally: Kate, isn’t this a bit expensive? I can’t afford to buy this. If I had that amount of money, I’d buy a detached house.

Kate: There are many cheap bank credits. I’ll buy one of them when I get the yearly promotion from my job.

Sally: Alright. I’ll have a look at new campaigns on the internet. Thanks.
