     Do you have an apartment available?

Blanca makes a phone call to an apartment complex inquiring about the rent....
Blanca: Hello.  I'm calling about the apartment you advertised. 
Manager: Yes.  What kind of apartment are you interested in?
Blanca: I'm interested in a one-bedroom.  Do you have any   available?
Manager: Yes.  I have one.  When do you need it?
Blanca: Sometime around next week.  What can you tell me about this apartment?
Manager: Well, it's a one-bedroom apartment.  The monthly rent is $650, with a $300 security deposit.  You pay electricity only.  Gas and water is included.  Both the heat and stove are gas.  You'll be assigned a sheltered parking space at no extra charge.  And...that's probably it.
Blanca: Sounds good.  May I come over tomorrow to take a look?
Manager: Sure.  What time would you like to come?
Blanca: How about 10 AM?
Manager: Good.  May I have your name, please?
Blanca: My name is Blanca.
Manager: Blanca.  I'll see you tomorrow.
