Hello Dear,
Thanks for the email. I and my wife own the house and also want you to know that it was due to my new job i just got with the WORLD HEALTH ORAGANISATION (W.H.O) in london that made us to leave the house and also want to give it out for rent and looking for a responsible person and God fearing person who can take very good care of the house in my absence.we are not after the money for the rent but want it to be clean all the time and the person that will rent it to take it as if it were its own.
So for now, We are here in london and will be staying for now in our new house and also with the keys of the house for rent, we try to
look for an agent that we can give this documents and the keys before we left
but could not find,
and we as well do not want our house to be used any how in
our absence that is why we took it along with us.
We came over to london with the kids, so i hope you will promise us
that you will take very good care of the house. So get back to me if you know
you could take care of our house or perhaps experience you have in renting home.
Hope you are okay with the price of $650 per month and the security Deposit
is $400..Get back to me for the rental application.You can go and view.
monthly rent: $650
Security deposit: $400
Application fee:$0
pet deposit: $0

Thanks

You need to pay to receive the keys to be sent from London ...but unfortunately you never get to see the keys, the house, or your money again !!
