Rental inquiry:
Goodday,
I will like to rent this house for 15 days for friends who will come there for honeymoon its my gift to them since i cannot attend their wedding. 1st Novermber 2008 to 15th Novermber is the suggested time frame advice.
However,i have a Certified Bank cashier check made out for this, that will cover your rental services, and the remaining after you deduct your fees and send the balance to a travel agent, who will make arrangements for Flight tickets, car hire, a guide and other services for the couple.
So I will like you to furnish me with the followings:
(1)The total cost of the reservation for the 15 days starting
from 01/11/2008 – 15/11//2008.
(2) YOUR FULL NAME (name on cheque )
(3)ADDRESS (for cheque delivery)…………..
(4) PHONE NUMBERS.
The guests names are Jessica and Ricardo Martinez.
12 London Rd
Ashford. Middx. TW15 3AA
UK.
I think they will meet all your criteria, no pets, no smoking and all, if such rules exist.
Its a suprise remember, I think the information given here so far is sufficient.
I await your reply with the check payment details.
Regards
John.
