Time Magazine reported that the asking price for the two-bedroom, two-bathroom home in Sleman, which comes with a fishpond and a spacious backyard, costs $76,5000. “Buyers who don’t negotiate the price can ask the owner to marry (terms and conditions apply)," the sales literature says.

Dian Purna Dirgantara, the realtor, told Time Magazine that his advertising pitch sparked a flood of responses. “Since yesterday morning there are continuous calls, I don’t count how many, there must be dozens or even hundreds.” He pointed out that marriage isn’t necessary. “If someone just wants the house, they can have that,” he said.

Wina, a single mother, told news outlet Kompas.com that she is serious about the offer. “Dian suggested I put up the tagline ‘Buy the house and marry the owner at the same time.’ And I said O.K. to it. I’m looking for a husband anyway,” she said.
