Dear Sir,

                                 I was reading a local paper a few days back and saw your advertisement regarding sale of houses. We are a family of 6 people and I am desperately looking for a house in the city district area. In the meanwhile I’ve gone through many tries of finding a suitable house but couldn’t get it done. The reason is that I don’t have that much money to spend. All I want is a good house having all the basic needs for living like: electricity, gas, transport etc. In addition to that, the price should range between 6 to 8 lacks as I belong to a middle class sector. I am looking forward to hear from you.
