EMAIL ABOUT YOUR HOME

Before You Write
Read Susan’s email. Complete the chart with information about Susan’s apartment.

Hello Lily,

Yes! We finally moved to our new apartment last week. We like the new place. It’s
new, and it’s in a nice area of the city. More importantly, it’s not as expensive as
the old place. The rent is much lower.

Of course, it’s much smaller than the old place. It doesn’t have as many windows,
and there isn’t enough closet space. But we’re going to buy a new dresser, so
that’s OK. I just wish we had a bigger living room and more space for furniture so
we didn’t have to sell our sofa.

When are you going to come and see our new place?

Susan
