Should I rent a house or rent an apartment?
user
Well, I’m not sure.  Can you tell me more about what kind of house or apartment you’re thinking about?  And why you’re thinking about getting one?
assistant
I don't have one in mind. I am just saying in general
user
So you are asking me for advice about a situation you haven't defined?  That seems very vague.  Perhaps we could start by asking yourself if you think a house or an apartment is more comfortable or convenient for you?
assistant
I think they are both nice. For a house you have a lot of space but for an apartment you have amenities
user
Ah, ok! So you are wondering if a house or apartment is the better choice for your lifestyle.
assistant
Right

I can see you want to move into a new place soon. You are thinking about what kind of place you might want to live in. It seems like you’d like to have a spacious and comfortable living situation, but you also want some convenience, like nearby amenities.  Is this right?  Do you have any other criteria you’re looking for?

So, if we’re working together we can avoid repeating questions, and to save time can I just ask you one question at a time?
