Housing prices in Bincheng are relatively low, with the average price in 2006 being a little over 3,000. Binjiang New District has a good location with good winds and water, and properties can generally be sold for 4,000.
As for Guanjiang International, which focuses on the concept of luxury houses with river views, it claims a starting price of 4,888 yuan, but the average transaction price of most houses is more than 5,000 yuan. This also leads to the fact that the vast majority of buyers who just want to buy a house will not come here to view the house.
In addition, the temperature in the Northeast in January is cold, and there are only more than ten groups of people who come to the sales office to view houses during non-holidays. In many cases, there are more people selling houses than people viewing houses. Therefore, not only Lu Yan, but most of them The real estate consultants sit there all day long and never make a single sale.
Lu Yan looked at the deserted sales center and said to himself: "Fortunately, I still have such a unique skill as [Fellow Taoist Staying], otherwise, I might not be able to sell two units in more than a month!"
It was not until six o'clock in the evening that everyone packed up and started to get off work. Everyone put on cotton-padded clothes, down jackets, hats and masks, and prepared to rush out into the outdoors where the temperature was more than 20 degrees below zero.
Most of these real estate consultants have not saved much money. Except for Niu Shaogang, Zhou Zhuang and a girl named Bai Ru who have cars, the rest have to take the bus to and from get off work. Of course, if you are on the way, you can also give them a ride.
Bai Ru is a beautiful woman in her twenties, with a good appearance and a straightforward personality. Seeing that Lu Yan was wearing thin clothes, she asked: "Hey, Xiao Lu, how are you going to leave later?"
"Oh, I'm close, just take the bus!"
Bai Ru smiled: "Where do you live? If you're on the way, I'll give you a ride!"
“Xin’an Community!”
"That's just right, I'll be there in just a short turn!"
A male real estate consultant named Tang Ren smiled mischievously, "Hey, Sister Bai, I don't usually see you taking our male compatriots with you. Don't you have a crush on Xiao Lu?"
Bai Ru smiled, "Xiao Lu is so handsome. It's normal for me to be curious about him. If you can have plastic surgery to look like Xiao Lu, I will also be curious about you!"
After hearing this, Tang Ren smiled and laughed at himself: "Mom, that will cost you some good money!"
Zhou Zhuang was on hand to make up for it, "You don't have the foundation. If you ask me, there is no chance of plastic surgery, just go back to the old job!" The others laughed after hearing this.
After packing up, the remaining people went out together. As soon as the door opened, the biting cold wind went straight into their necks, making everyone hiss and laugh, and white breath came out of their mouths.
Lu Yan followed Bai Ru to a red Mazda, and before he could open the door and get in the car, he saw an Audi A3 parked not far away, and suddenly it flashed its lights and honked its horn.
Lu Yan followed the sound and found that the car looked very similar to the one driven by Xiao Wanru. At this time, the car window rolled down, revealing Ruan Xiaoxiao's face, "Brother, I'm here!" The colleagues in the sales office looked at Lu Yan more and more. strange.
Lu Yan said to Bai Ru: "Sister Bai, thank you, my partner came over without saying anything in advance!"
Bai Ru didn't react at all, and just said: "Oh, okay, I'll leave first and ask your partner to play at the sales office if he has nothing to do!" After that, he opened the door and got into his Mazda.
Lu Yan got into the Audi A3 and asked, "Why didn't you tell me in advance when you came?"
Ruan Xiaoxiao said: "I also made a temporary decision, what do you want to eat at night?"
Lu Yan thought to himself, "I want to eat you!" But he said, "Just take a bite!"
Ruan Xiaoxiao drove Lu Yan to the outside of Xin'an Community and found a small shop for a quick bite. He then asked Lu Yan about his day at the sales office and said, "I heard from my dad that houses are not easy to sell, so you can't." Don’t put too much pressure on yourself!”
Lu Yan smiled: "I know, I just went to practice, how much can I sell?"
Ruan Xiaoxiao heard this and said happily: "By the way, is the sales office closed for the Chinese New Year?"
Lu Yan said: "It will be released for four days, from New Year's Eve to the third day of the first lunar month!"
"Then are you going back? If not, you can come to my house to celebrate the New Year!" When the girl said this, her tone was sincere and her eyes were bright, just like the way Xiao Longnu looked at Yang Guo in the ancient version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
"Well, I have to go back for the Chinese New Year, but I'll be back soon!" Lu Yan had to go back and get the property ownership certificate for the house under his name, and come to Bincheng to apply for a mortgage loan for a property in another place.
Ruan Xiaoxiao was slightly disappointed when he heard this, but said obediently: "It's right to go back and take a look. Oh, then I have to buy some gifts for your parents. Well, what should I bring?"
Seeing her thoughtful expression, Lu Yan couldn't help but smile and said, "Just take whatever you want, my parents don't choose!"
Ruan Xiaoxiao said solemnly: "That's not okay. It's the first time I buy something for your parents. The meaning is different. Tell me what they like!"
Lu Yan had no choice but to answer Ruan Xiaoxiao's questions casually. After she left, he returned to his temporary residence in Xin'an Community and turned on his computer to continue updating "The Romance of Dragon and Snake".
But when he turned around and came to the sales office, several colleagues were very curious and asked Lu Yan if he had found a rich second-generation girlfriend. It couldn't be called a luxury car, but it still cost tens of thousands. At this time in 2006,
It's pretty good.
Lu Yan casually said a few words and went to look at today's "customer reception rota". There were eight people working, and as expected, he was the last one. Also, it was a Friday and there weren't many people viewing the house, so he might not be able to get his turn all day long.
Fortunately, at about four o'clock in the afternoon, a customer who finally took his turn came in. He was in his mid-twenties, and his clothes were ordinary and his wealth could not be identified. He had never visited before asking, and he had not interacted with other sales staff of this property.
Afterwards, Lu Yan regained his energy and gave him a brief explanation at the sand table, then exchanged business cards and asked the customer about his home purchase needs.
"Oh, come here first to find out more about it!" the boy called Chang Yuanshan said. Lu Yan asked him how big he wanted to buy, and the latter said two rooms.
After looking at the floor plan for a while, Lu Yan took him to see the model room, and finally asked if he could see the existing house.
Because the price of Guanjiang International is a little higher, the house is a little slow to sell. There are indeed existing houses available for viewing. I filled out the form and received the key. I took this person to the building and stood in the living room of the building on the 15th floor looking at the river view and looking at the other side.
The starry lights feel really good.
Lu Yan added: "It's already dark now. If it were daytime, it would be nice to get up in the morning and go to the living room, open the curtains and look across the way!"
Chang Yuanshan nodded and sighed: "It's really good, but the money is also good!"
Lu Yan said: "Okay, let's go back and let me calculate how much it will cost you."
Chang Yuanshan said: "Okay, let's do the math!"
The two of them walked back to the sales office. Lu Yan handed back the keys and used a calculator to calculate the floor plans for him. Since the "National Six Regulations" would not be released until May, Lu Yan paid 20% of the down payment.
He counts.
The building area is 80, the average price is 5,300, 92% off, and the house payment totals 415,520. A down payment of more than 20% means more than 83,104. He calculated a down payment of 83,520 and a loan of 332,000. Based on the mortgage interest rate at the time, he gave
He calculated the monthly payments for a thirty-year loan and a twenty-year loan.
When Lu Yan did the calculations, he was filled with emotion, because more than ten years later, the houses in this real estate could be sold for 17,800 yuan, which was tripled!
Chang Yuanshan frowned slightly after hearing this, looked at the calculated price on the floor plan, looked at it for a while, and then said, "Okay, I'll discuss it with my family when I go back!"
Lu Yan guessed that he must have fallen in love with this house. Otherwise, in the winter when the temperature was more than 20 degrees below zero, he would have taken the bus to look at the house. He would have had more time to come and take a look around.
It was just some worries in his heart that prevented him from making up his mind.
He used to be like this. His family had prepared all the money for the down payment for renovations, but because he felt that his job was unstable and he didn't earn much, he was reluctant to buy a house. When the housing prices skyrocketed later, he was really regretful.
.
So I immediately thought to myself: "Fellow Taoist, please stay!"
