Chapter 83 Buying a House



Moreover, it occupies a relatively large area. According to the information, the land area is more than 3,100 square feet (more than 290 square meters), so the price is relatively high. If it is placed in Beverly Hills or other places, the price can at least double.

In Los Angeles, rich people don't like to live in the city area with heavy traffic and noisy environment. The surrounding houses are relatively dilapidated and the environment is not very good.

The real estate agent just saw Han Chudong driving a Jaguar convertible and dressed quite formally, otherwise he would have really thought that this young yellow man was talking nonsense. Earning more than three million US dollars a month was a number that he could not even imagine.

I was skeptical and took him to see the house first.

I thought that even if it was a scam, it would not matter, it would just be a waste of time, but if it was really a wealthy customer, the commission amount would be huge.

The buyer and the seller are charged one point each, plus there is a transaction service fee. The broker can get more than 3,000 US dollars, which is worth the long trip.

They just left.

The colleagues of the real estate agent named Dylan immediately started whispering to each other.

A young man laughed and said, "Did you hear that? That Asian guy said he made over 3 million U.S. dollars this month! Haha, is he sure it's U.S. dollars and not the currency of some poor country? If it were me, I would definitely not be fooled."

"Maybe he won the lottery. He looks like a wealthy man. Or maybe he's a Japanese who runs a company. They've taken away a lot of our job opportunities." Another real estate agent shrugged.

They were in the same real estate agency, and the manager was a plain-looking, capable woman. At this moment, she criticized:

"If you have nothing else to do, go out and look for houses for sale, promote our company, and don't ever let me hear that again.

Customers are king. You can't see their bank accounts. How do you know that Asians have no money? Recently, more and more Japanese are buying real estate. They will give up buying just because of your impolite look. Who wants to lose the commission?"

The two countries became closer after the war.

Japan is now in its golden period of development. It has begun to make efforts in home appliances, automobiles, cameras, semiconductor components, etc., and is currently the second largest economy.

Therefore, when people talk about Asians, the first thing they mention is Japan, especially on the West Coast.

Many American companies are moving their factories there, and stores are filled with Japanese-made products. They will take business in the United States and then use Asia's cheap labor to produce, and the economy is growing rapidly.

As for the Chinese.

In the local people's impression, they have always been "very poor" and "very strange". It was not until the appearance of Bruce Lee that they were able to slightly restore the impression.

Han Chudong is just a small figure.

I don't have the ability to make a loud noise and make people look at my compatriots with new eyes.

He hasn't even taken care of himself yet, and now his eyes are only focused on his own little piece of land, and his mind is filled with only thinking about making money.

The purpose of making money is to improve life and become the big person you always dream of. Now that I have some money, I even dare to think about buying a house worth $400,000.

Choosing to repay the loan in installments will not result in too much monthly expenses, but it will definitely have some impact on the business, and may result in opening one or two fewer Baofeng Electric Appliance branches in the short term. However, one cannot always be petty and calculating in life. He feels that improving the lives of himself and his family is also important.

The old couple is old, and they are exhausted and out of breath when climbing the stairs to go home. It is not as comfortable as living in a single-family house. Right now, finding ways to make more money is more important than cutting down on living expenses.

It took some time to get to the church.

I drove around the surrounding blocks first, and then followed the instructions of real estate agent Dylan and parked the car in front of a house.

It can't be considered a community because there are only a few houses on the roadside, there are a lot of vegetation around, it's backed by a church, and it's more than ten meters away from the road. You can hear car horns, but it should be relatively quiet if you close the windows.

They are all red brick buildings of uniform style, with no paint or granite on the outside. They are next to each other, leaving an alley of about two meters in the middle. The garden of each household is surrounded by a fence, and the backyard is directly surrounded by a wall.

Han Chudong's eyes lit up when he saw it. The environment was slightly better than he had imagined, and the exterior of the building was also beautiful.

The surrounding blocks are a bit old, but there are trees around them, which block out the older buildings across the road. It's like a private little park, and there's a large lawn next to the church.

It is said that this long strip of land was sold to people for building houses in order to renovate the church. It was bought by a wealthy businessman at the time, who built these buildings and gave them to his children. After so many years, the family has long since fallen apart and the houses have changed hands one after another.

I was poor before and never lived in a big house, but now I am so satisfied.

Going inside, you'll see that the decor is quite classical, with oak floors on the ground and even a fireplace in the living room.

There are five rooms, upstairs and downstairs, two bathrooms and a cloakroom. I immediately had the urge to buy it.

At this moment, he asked, "Is this house free of termites, water leaks, or other hidden dangers? Also, has there ever been a murder?"

"God is my witness, as far as I know, there really isn't any. If you're worried, I can take you to ask the neighbors." Dylan wasn't really sure either. Anyway, the seller didn't tell him, and he was afraid of getting into a lawsuit, so it was better to ask clearly.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

After reading the evaluation documents, he continued to say to Han Chudong, "The roof was renovated seven years ago and can be used for at least another twenty years. For a brick and stone building like this, there is no need to worry about termites. In order to sell it as soon as possible, the landlord renovated it at his own expense. The floor was polished and waxed, and the bathtub, faucets, and walls were also replaced with new ones. It's a very nice house."

If you buy it, it will have to go through a second renovation. The bathroom sink, door, ceiling lights and other things will definitely have to be replaced. Many old furniture have been moved away, and the interior looks empty.

"Let's go take a look at the backyard. To be honest, I like it here, but the price is a bit high. You want to sell it for as much money as possible, right? Help me get the lowest price, and I will consider buying it."

The backyard is about 60 square meters, a small courtyard with a swing chair, vegetation climbing up the wall, and tall palm trees planted outside the wall.

The ground was covered with flat lawns. No one had lived there for some time, so the grass was quite lush. This made Han Chudong feel that he should be able to get a more suitable price.

After hearing what he said, the real estate agent Dylan nodded and smiled and said, "Of course I want to sell it as soon as possible. If you really want to buy it, I will discuss it with the owner on your behalf. They have moved to Palm Springs. I will call them later to ask for you?"

"Okay, get the lowest price. I'll also rent a shop from you. The area must be more than 2,000 square feet. It's located in a good location. For your commission, you must help me have a good talk with the landlord."

After looking at the backyard, Han Chudong went upstairs to take another look and climbed up to the attic.

Including the clean attic which is completely habitable, there are three floors in total, which is enough for their family to live in. The walls are clean and there are no signs of leaks. It is not very luxurious, but there are no major problems. It is definitely much better than the apartment they live in now.

Dylan immediately said seriously: "Don't worry, I will contact the landlord when I find a phone booth..."

——————

Han Chudong got it done. The real estate agent went to great lengths to help him bargain, and finally the price was negotiated down to US$376,000.

I didn't look at other houses and decided on the one right away. I went back to their company to sign a temporary agreement and paid a deposit of 5,000 US dollars. It is not effective yet and will only take effect after I get the landlord to sign it.

Before the bank closed, Dylan took him to Bank of America. After checking Han Chudong's bank account, the staff was extremely enthusiastic. They said on the spot that there would be no problem with the loan, and even gave him a VIP discount, and advised him to apply for a credit card with a limit of up to 50,000 US dollars.

I didn't think I would use a credit card, so I declined.

After I learned about it, the bank closed. The remaining things could not be completed that day, so they said they would contact me by phone later.

Buying a house in the name of Mango Company will save some tax. If nothing goes wrong, the Han family will be able to live in their new home soon...
