Dear Sarah and Mark,
I hope you are both doing well! I am thrilled to share that I have just accepted a new job in Manchester, and I will be moving there at the beginning of next month.
Since you have lived in the area for so long, I was wondering if you might be able to help me find a place to stay. If you happen to hear of any landlords looking for tenants or see any 'to let' signs while you are out and about, I would be incredibly grateful if you could let me know.
Ideally, I would love to live somewhere in the Didsbury or Chorlton areas. I am quite keen on being within walking distance of some nice cafes and parks, and having a reliable connection to the city centre via the tram would be a huge bonus for my commute.
As for the type of accommodation, a one-bedroom flat would be perfect for me. I am hoping to find something with plenty of natural light and perhaps a small balcony or a bit of outdoor space if possible. My budget is fairly flexible, provided the place is in good condition.
Let’s catch up properly once I settle in. Thanks so much for your help!
Best wishes,
Alex
