Chapter 50 Small Duplex
Shao Min asked the young girl who spoke at the beginning to go ahead and go to another agency to get the house keys, while she led Li Zhe and Xiao Qiao behind.
The three houses Li Zhe made an appointment with her to look at today were all around the Bund. The locations were not much different, except that one of them was a small duplex apartment and the other two were ordinary apartments.
"Mr. Li, is this beauty your girlfriend?" Shao Min looked at Xiao Qiao and said.
In fact, there is no need to ask, just look at the couple's shirts the two of them wear.
Today, the two of them wore relatively simple clothes, both wearing short-sleeved T-shirts and white cropped pants. However, Li Zhe's T-shirt was light blue and Xiao Qiao's was pink.
"it's beautiful!"
"I think so too." Li Zhe smiled. His boyfriend was quite confident.
"Is Mr. Li at work or at school?" After a few polite words, Shao Min tried to make up his mind.
Both Li Zhe and Xiao Qiao are too young, especially Xiao Qiao, who looks innocent and looks like a student.
"Yes, we are both still in school."
"You two are not locals, are you? Are you here for tourism in Shanghai?"
"Yes, come to Shanghai during the holidays."
Shao Min's heart suddenly went cold. Judging from Li Zhe's attitude, it really didn't look like he was serious about buying a house.
Besides, they are still students, so even if they want to buy it, they probably won’t be able to come up with the money.
Most likely, this young couple came over to watch and play.
Shao Min first took the two of them to see a single-story house. The two houses were next to each other in a community. It was very close to the agency store and it only took ten minutes to drive.
The first house is a river view house with a good location in the community. It has 8 floors and 150 square meters. It has three bedrooms, two living rooms, two bathrooms, one kitchen and a large balcony. The decoration is also quite exquisite. The owner only bought it two or three years ago because he wants to immigrate.
Then you want to sell it.
"This community is only 2.3 kilometers away from the Bund, and it only takes 10 minutes to drive..." Shao Min took Li Zhe and Xiao Qiao to visit and explained the situation of this house in a formulaic manner.
"There is a large balcony outside the living room. Opposite the balcony is the Bund, overlooking the Pujiang River." Shao Min opened the floor-to-ceiling window of the living room and let the two of them go to the balcony and take a look at the outside scene.
Li Zhe took a look and found that the location of the suite was indeed good. He could clearly see the cruise ships on the river.
He turned to Xiao Qiao and said, "How do you feel?"
"Of course it's good, how can such an expensive house be bad?" Xiao Qiao complained.
She really liked this house, but the price shocked her.
"35,000 per square meter?"
35,000 per square meter, 150 square meters will cost at least 5.25 million.
To her, this is an astronomical figure.
"Yes! Actually, these three houses are all high-end apartments, so the prices are relatively high." Shao Min nodded.
"It's too expensive!" Li Zhe commented.
More than ten years later, this location, with an area of 35,000 square meters, would be extremely cheap.
But it is now 2007, and housing prices have not skyrocketed yet. Li Zhe also learned about Shanghai housing prices online. The market price of this house is only 31,200, and 35,000 per square meter is obviously a bit high.
I really want to go abroad, but I don’t forget to make more money from my compatriots.
No, even if I spend a little more money to buy this house, it will still be a waste of money. After more than ten years, this house will still cost 130,000 to 41,000 square meters.
Speaking of which, selling your house to immigrate is really a waste of money.
There is a joke about a person who sold his house in Beijing in order to start a business and took 500,000 yuan to start a business.
Ten years later, he used the 4 million he earned from starting a business to make a down payment on a property in Beijing.
This story is so inspiring!
"Mr. Li, if you really want to buy it, I can talk to the landlord again," Shao Min said.
Of course, she just said that and didn't think Li Zhe would actually buy it.
Sure enough, Li Zhe shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's go see the next set."
Xiao Qiao smiled and glanced at Li Zhe.
Every time she saw Li Zhe buying something, he said it was cheap, not expensive, and he could afford it. This was the first time she saw him say it was expensive and he couldn't afford it!
The location of the second house is not much different from the first one. It is about a 10-minute drive from the Bund. However, the house is relatively older. It is seven or eight years old. The interior decoration of the house is also a bit old.
It needs to be renovated.
But the relative price is much cheaper than the first one. It only costs 171 square meters, with a total area of 110 square meters, and it costs more than 1.87 million to buy it.
After reading it, Li Zhe still said: "Forget it!" He looked unsatisfied.
Finally, the three of them went to see the small duplex apartment again.
The community where this apartment is located is called Binjiang Yayuan. It is 2.4 kilometers away from the Bund and takes 11 minutes by car. The location is slightly worse than the previous two apartments, but the difference is not big.
The price/performance ratio is much higher, only 23,000 per square meter.
"The average opening price of this community was 20,000, and it has now risen to 22,000, and the houses are about to be sold out. This suite also has a river view. The location is excellent. The 20,21 square meters is definitely lower than the market price, and it is accurate.
The owner of the new house has just finished renovating it and has not moved in yet." Shao Min led Li Zhe and Xiao Qiao into the community and introduced them as they walked.
The environment of the community is very elegant, with scenic avenues, water systems and fountains, surrounded by greenery, and the sounds of birds and flowers.
"Since it is a newly purchased house, why does the owner want to sell it and sell it so cheaply?" Xiao Qiao asked curiously.
"Because the owner is in urgent need of money, the house can only be paid in full without receiving a loan, and the payment must be made after signing the transfer contract," Shao Min explained.
After walking into the building and taking the elevator to the 9th floor, Shao Min took out the key from his bag and opened the door.
The small duplex is 140 square meters, with three bedrooms, two living rooms, two bathrooms and a kitchen. It also comes with a 16-meter outdoor balcony.
The house is decorated in a very luxurious and modern style, giving it a spacious and comfortable feeling at first glance.
"The owner only sells this house for three days, so there are many people viewing the house in these two days, and it may be sold at any time. After all, the price/performance ratio is too high." Shao Min first took Li Zhe and Xiao Qiao around the first floor.
Then he took the two of them up the spiral staircase to the second floor.
"The decoration is high-end and the furniture and appliances are all imported brands. The homeowner spent 500,000 to 600,000 yuan and sold it for 20,031 square meters, which is equivalent to a lot of compensation."
The special feature of this house is the open-air balcony on the second floor. The three of them stood on the balcony and had an unobstructed view of the Pujiang River on the opposite side. The scenery was not worse than the scenery in the first apartment, but it was actually a bit more peaceful.
"Do you like this house?" The three of them came down from the second floor and returned to the first floor. They took a look at Shao Min and Li Zhe, who walked aside to answer the phone.
"I like it, of course I like it, but what's the point of liking it? I can't afford it. This house costs more than 3.2 million. The houses in Shanghai are too expensive. I guess I won't be able to afford it in my life!" Xiao Qiao
