Destiny's Tears: Zykovian's Sidetrack

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Yes, it is)

"If you'd like to find someone who wants to split the bill with you, you can. You can also just pay it yourself now and then try to get them to pay you to share it. If you'd like, you can come back tomorrow when those who want the flat come in to check on it."

 

[Keia]

"Unfortunately, I'm leaving today," Zykovian offered. "Would it be possible to put a down payment on the lease for the next year . . . and perhaps arrange for some security or something during the time that I'll be gone?"

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Yes it will. We can inform the guards that the flat is currently vacant and to act accordingly. Would you like to pay the minimum down payment of 55%, or would you like to give yourself some more time to make the next payment?"

 

[Keia]

"Hmmm, how much is the minimum down payment?" Zykovian inquired. "Also, how much time do I have to make the next payment."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"The minimum down payment is 4125 credits. That will cover you for one tenth of a year, so a little over a month. After that time, you are expected to pay 375 credits, and continue on the same interval, though you can always lump sum more if you like. As a courtesy to you, we will hold off on releasing the property for one full week after a failed payment in case there is an unforeseen problem, but there will be a fine applied for late payment."

 

[Keia]

"Wow . . . that is an awful lot to assume on a flat that isn't going to be lived in at the moment," Zykovian replied. "Any change you would discuss the prospective renters with me, perhaps I know one would would be willing to share the flat or something."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"I actually don't know. We told anyone who expressed interest when to come back , and we've made it public knowledge too, so we could wind up with significantly more people than we expect too. But we didn't keep track of names."

 

[Keia]

"Ah . . . well, I think you can understand my dilemma," Zykovian offered. "I'm renting the flat, which is too much for one person, and too expensive to maintain without actually being there. I'll stop back in a bit, perhaps I can find someone who is interested in sharing the flat."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Of course we would love to continue having you as a customer, but don't worry or feel obligated to continue renting the flat if you think it is too big for you--we do have other customers if you'd prefer to give it up, and maybe you can snag a smaller one at a later date?"

 

[Keia]

"What about me leaving some funds with you to hold a smaller flat, should one come available in my current neighborhood. Otherwise, when I return, I pick up the funds I deposited with you and go from there?" Zykovian pondered aloud.
