Dear Mr. Hargrave,                    October 15
Thank you for notifying me of the lot (#4415 Greenwich Township) now available for purchase. You asked me to send you in writing a bid for that property. I am willing to purchase that lot for US$540,000 but no more. Another property, lot #4718, also in Greenwich, last listed at $458,000, has also attracted my attention. If the owner of lot #4415 cannot lower his asking price, or if another buyer bids higher, we can pursue discussion on lot #4718.
Since our last phone conversation I have been in touch with your recommended contractor, Connecticut Homeland, in Greenwich. I have, however, enlisted the services of an architect here in Amherst to draw up the blueprint for the new home once the lot purchase is settled. You said earlier that the seller of lot #4415 should decide by the end of this month. Do you still think that is the case? In the meantime, please keep me posted on any changes in the status of lot #4718.
Again, thank you for all your help and sage advice. I appreciate your courtesies and professionalism.
Sincerely yours,
Albert Mills
