REGARDING MY HOUSE‏

Hi ,
Thanks for the email. I Ellen Fu owns the house and i also want you to know that it was due to my transfer that make me and my family to leave the house and we want to give it out for rent.We are looking for a responsible person that can take a very good care of it as we are not after the money for the rent but want it to be clean all the time and the possible tenant will see the house as his or her own.
We have left the Illinois (USA) and we are currently in the West Africa for a program called 'World Conference Against Racism Youth Summit, Empowering youth for combating racism, HIV/AIDS, Poverty and Lack of Education, the program is taking place in three major countries in Africa which is Sudan, Ghana and Nigeria. It has been a very sad and bad moment for me, the present condition that I found myself is very hard for me to explain.

If you will be the right tenant to our house, we will get the keys and documents of the house sent to you via courier services as soon as all terms are settled.

I will be online through out to get back to you as soon as you are able to get back to me.
I would want to know how soon you would want to move in, as I will be taking a 2 month upfront payment which mean the first and second months you will be staying in the house including some utilities (Electricity, Water, Internet and Garbage). I am asking for $1200 and I believe we should be able to help ourselves. I am accepting $1200 including utilities because I want you to take a very good care of the house while I am away.

I am looking forward to hear from you ASAP so that i can forward you an application to fill out and discuss on how to get the house for rent over to me so that I can get the keys and papers sent to you via FedEx or ups e.t.c, also are you ready to rent it now or when? Await your reply. I will be willing to send the inside view of the building if you demands for it..
I could let you remain in the house till I come back if you are a good tenant and
