Zhang Yunqing has basically thought about it. If he wants to complete the task of renting a house and settling down in just one day given by Western Construction Company, finding a housing agency is the fastest way.
After having an idea in mind, Zhang Yunqing searched for housing agencies within a radius of 1,000 meters with the location of the Western Construction Company as the center.
After walking about 800 to 900 meters, a housing agency appeared on the roadside called Lianjia Tu Road Store.
Zhang Yunqing walked in quickly.
The beautiful woman at the front desk saw Zhang Yunqing immediately and asked: "Sir, welcome to the Lianjiatu Road store. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Zhang Yunqing saw that the beauty's service attitude was good, so he felt good about it and replied friendly: "Hello, beauty, this is it: Do you know the Western Construction Company at the intersection ahead?
I need to rent a house within a radius of 1,000 meters with this company as the center, so that I can go to work at a Western Construction Company in the future."
"Well, I understand.
Sir, I don't know about Western Construction Company, but I know the location of the intersection you pointed to.
We happen to have some housing. Please come with me."
The beautiful woman at the front desk took Zhang Yunqing to the computer desk next to her and asked, "Sir, what is your surname?"
"My surname is Zhang. What's your surname?" Zhang Yunqing asked.
"Okay, Mr. Zhang. My surname is Mei, you can just call me Xiaomei." said the pretty girl at the front desk surnamed Mei.
"By the way, Mr. Zhang, what are your current rental needs? Are there any special restrictions?" Xiaomei asked.
Zhang Yunqing thought about it carefully and said, "In addition to the very important condition just mentioned with the Western Construction Company as the center and a radius of 1,000 meters, it is best to meet the following conditions:
1. It is close to the farmer's market, so it is convenient to buy vegetables in the future.
2. Two or three bedrooms.
3. The house is at least simply decorated.
4. Commonly used furniture is available.
5. The price is fair and reasonable.”
Xiaomei smiled and replied: "Then look at this house No. 1.
The walking distance from the intersection where Western Construction Company is located is 500 meters.
This is the closest of all our houses currently. It is a 3-bedroom house. The house is simply decorated and has daily household appliances. There are three beds and the construction area is 120 square meters.
It is 1500 meters away from the farmers market.
You see how it goes."
Zhang Yunqing carefully looked at the pictures of each room on the computer provided by Xiaomei, and felt quite satisfied. Then he asked: "The situation looks good, what is the price of renting this house?"
Xiaomei quickly checked the computer system information and replied: "Mr. Zhang, the rental price of this apartment is 5,000 yuan per month. The guest needs to be a long-term tenant. It is best to sign a contract of more than three years at a time. The rent needs to be once a year."
Pay and deposit one month's rent. The agency fee is also one month's rent."
Zhang Yunqing calculated in his head that the annual rent for this apartment is 60,000 yuan, the deposit is 5,000 yuan, and the agency fee is 5,000 yuan. It will take a total of 70,000 yuan to complete it.
I just opened and closed my company, and I am very short of money, so forget it.
After the calculation was completed, he replied to Xiaomei: "This apartment is good, but it is a bit big for me. I am the only one who comes to Kyoto now. Is there any smaller apartment available?"
Xiaomei said: "Yes, Mr. Zhang. Let's take a look at this house No. 2. This apartment is a two-bedroom apartment, and the rental price is 4,000 yuan per month. The guest needs to be a long-term tenant, and it is best to sign a one-time contract for more than three years.
According to the contract, the rent needs to be paid once a year and one month’s rent is deposited. The agency fee is also one month’s rent.”
Zhang Yunqing calculated it in his head. The annual rent for this house is 48,000 yuan, plus a deposit of 4,000 yuan, plus an agency fee of 4,000 yuan. It would cost 56,000 yuan to rent this house for the first time. This cost is too high and I can't afford it.
So I replied to Xiaomei: "The rent is too high."
Xiaomei said: "The rent is the landlord's request when he comes to our agency. For interested customers, we can lower it appropriately. Do you need to call the landlord to talk about it?"
Zhang Yunqing heard that the rent might be lowered, and thought there was still some hope, so he quickly replied: "Please Xiaomei, please help me contact the landlord to see how much the rent of this house can be reduced every month?"
Xiaomei then dialed the phone number of the landlord, Sister Wang: "Hello, Sister Wang, I am Xiaomei, the rental specialist of the Lianjiatu Road store. There is a guest now who likes the No. 2 house you registered in our store, but he is not sure about the price.
I’m very satisfied. I hope you can consider lowering the rent appropriately.”
I heard a voice called Sister Wang on the phone: "Xiaomei, my family used to live in this house, and we have been reluctant to rent it out. We are afraid that the tenant will make the house dirty or it will be worn out.
It’s uncomfortable, so there are requirements for tenants.
First, the requirement is that people who take good care of the house must rent it.
The second requirement is that the tenant be a long-term tenant.
If these two conditions are met, you can get a discount of 200 yuan per month on the basis of the monthly rent of 4,000 yuan for the Internet connection. Please help me check it, I still have something to do, that's it."
Zhang Yunqing understood what he heard very clearly, so he said to Xiaomei: "Xiaomei, Sister Wang made it very clear on the phone that I may not meet her two conditions for tenants.
The first is to rent a house for more than one year. I don’t know how long I will be able to work in Kyoto, because I need to obey the arrangements of Western construction companies. The high probability is that I will not live in Kyoto for more than one year.
Second, even if the price is reduced by 200 yuan per month, it still seems a bit high to me."
After listening to Zhang Yunqing's answer, Xiaomei also realized that the biggest influencing factor on renting a house is probably the sensitivity and acceptance of the monthly rent of the house by the gentleman in front of her.
So he smiled and asked: "Okay, Mr. Zhang, I understand.
These prices are the general rental prices for 3-bedroom and 2-bedroom apartments in our area. In fact, the online prices have a little room for fluctuation because there are so many renters now.
But basically it is in the range of 100-400 yuan per month.
May I ask how much monthly rent is more acceptable to you?"
Zhang Yunqing smiled awkwardly, wiped his forehead, and said a little embarrassedly: "This is my first time in Kyoto, and I don't understand the rental market here.
So according to the standards of our hometown, I think it is okay to spend more than 1,000 yuan per month to rent a 120-square-meter 3-bedroom house to live in. It turned out that the difference was three times. Your store now has a house that can be rented for more than 1,000 yuan per month.
Source?"
Xiaomei nodded and replied: "Mr. Zhang, there is such a house. Our house No. 9 is here. The online price is 1,800 yuan per month. The construction area is 27 square meters. It has a kitchen and
Bathroom, a bed, a desk, a chair, hot shower, heating in winter, air conditioning in summer, the floor is on the 27th floor.”
"What about the walking distance from the location of Western Construction Company and the distance from the vegetable market?"
"The walking distance from the Western Construction Company is 900 meters, and the walking distance from the vegetable market is 900 meters. The location of this house is exactly at the midpoint between the Western Construction Company and the vegetable market. Do you need to see the house?"
"You can go and have a look."
Xiaomei then took Zhang Yunqing to House No. 9 in this community, on the 27th floor of Unit 1, Building 1, Ditongyuan.
After opening the room, Zhang Yunqing took a closer look. The floor was clean and tidy, and the floor plan of the house was rectangular. He was quite satisfied. So he said to Xiaomei: "Xiaomei, this house is still a bit lacking. Look at the kitchen furniture except for the stove.
, there is nothing else, can you ask the landlord to make up for it?”
Xiaomei replied: "Mr. Zhang, this small-bedroom house was recovered from the market by our company, and then made appropriate modifications based on big data. There are not many houses, but it is very popular, and it is also
There is no requirement to be a long-term renter for more than one year.”
Zhang Yunqing knew in his heart that a house like this in Kyoto was just right for his current situation, so he asked Xiaomei: "Xiaomei, can the rent of this house be lowered?"
Xiaomei said: "The policy given by the company is a minimum of 1,700 yuan per month, and the minimum rent is 3 months. If the rent is less than 3 months, the rent will be charged for 3 months. The deposit is 1 month's rent, and the agency fee is 1 month's rent." Zhang
Sir, do you need to rent this house?"
Zhang Yunqing said: "It can be rented."
Xiaomei said: "Okay, let's read the water meter, electricity meter, and gas meter now, and click on the list of items in the house. Then both of us will sign and confirm it as an attachment to the rental contract."
Zhang Yunqing and Xiaomei quickly completed the above written confirmation and returned to the Lianjia Tu Road store where Xiaomei was located.
Xiaomei asked Zhang Yunqing for her original ID card and quickly filled out the rental contract. Both parties signed, sealed and fingerprinted it. It took almost another 30 minutes to finalize the rental.
After paying 8,500 yuan in related fees, Zhang Yunqing basically doesn't have much money left in his pocket, but he will finally have a place to stay in the next three months.
