Hello, I'm currently abroad for work, which is why the rent is a bit lower — I want to let it quickly. The apartment is available right away. I can't show you around myself, but I can send you more photos. To reserve it, I need a transfer of the first month's rent and the deposit; I'll send you the keys by courier once the payment is received.
