SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Annie,
Hope you’re doing fine. It’s been a while since we’ve written to each other. You’ll be glad to hear that I’ll move to London soon to take a job that I’ve been offered at Liberty Global. I’ll reach London in a few weeks.
As you know, I’ve never been to London, and I am hoping you could help me in finding suitable accommodation. Though my company has arranged a studio apartment for the first two weeks, I’ll have to vacate the place after that.
My preference would be to live close to my workplace, which is in central London, as it would save a lot of time. If I could get something near the tube station and the marketplace, that would be great. I’m mostly looking for a furnished studio apartment. If the studio apartment is not available, I would not mind sharing a flat with a girl. But the apartment should be spacious with a good ventilation facility. My budget is around $1000 pounds for the studio apartment and half of that for the shared room. Do you think I will get something in that budget?
I know you have a wide social circle there, and I would really appreciate your time to find me suitable accommodation.
Looking forward to meeting you soon.
Warm wishes,
