Task

1. What is the first thing to do if the tenant likes the place?

2. You¡¯ve just arrived in the U.S. The agent manager asks you to pay $10 for credit check. Ask the manager why you have to pay for that.

P.T.: Is Sunday the first time you¡¯re showing it?

Manager: Yes, it is. If you like it, you can fill out an application at that time, and we require that you submit $10 with your application for us to do a credit check on you.

P.T.: A fee for credit check? Hmm. Okay, I guess. But don¡¯t you just call the current landlord?

Manager: We are managers of many buildings, and this is the way we check out prospective tenants.
