The female saleswoman smiled, her eyes revealing sincerity and enthusiasm, a stark contrast to the saleswomen at Xuefu Yayuan earlier.
As she led the way, she carefully inquired about Li Yi and Zhou Mei's housing needs: "What size apartment are you two looking for? Are you considering living there yourself or for investment? Do you have any special requirements regarding the floor or orientation?"
Li Yi asked, "What's the largest apartment you have here?"
The saleswoman, Luo Li, replied, "Our largest unit here is a 260-square-meter suite with five bedrooms, two living rooms, and five bathrooms."
Li Yi: "Is it also fully furnished?"
Luo Li: "No, this type of apartment is usually decorated by the owner himself."
Li Yi frowned. He wanted to buy a fully furnished apartment so that Zhou Mei and her daughter could move in as soon as possible.
"What type of apartment has the largest floor area for a fully furnished unit?"
Luo Li: "The largest fully furnished apartment is a four-bedroom, three-bathroom unit with a floor area of 188 square meters."
Li Yi: "Okay, then you can focus on introducing this apartment layout to us!"
"Okay, no problem! Are you two planning to buy this as your wedding home?" the salesperson asked.
Li Yi: "??????"
Zhou Mei: "??????"
Li Yi and Zhou Mei were both a little confused.
Li Yi: "No."
The salesperson then asked, "Oh. So, have you two not set a wedding date yet?"
Zhou Mei blushed.
She wasn't angry at being asked that; instead, she felt a little happy, but also shy. She stole a glance at Li Yi.
Li Yi replied frankly, "It's not decided yet. Let's look at houses first."
“Okay, this way please. Let me introduce you both on the sand table first,” Luo Li said.
The Shuxiang Mendi residential community is less than a kilometer from Beijing Normal University, and is surrounded by commercial facilities, subway stations, and parks, making it a well-equipped community.
After looking at the location on the model, Li Yi said, "Let's go see the actual house."
"No problem, this way please. How high a floor would you like to see? Our building is 20 floors tall."
Li Yi: "Let's look at the 17th floor first."
A few minutes later, the salesperson took them to see the existing apartment on the 17th floor.
The apartment layout and decoration are both good, and the view is also open.
Li Yi looked at Zhou Mei and asked, "Mei'er, what do you think? Do you like it?"
Zhou Mei nodded quickly and said, "I love it! This house is so nice, but it must be expensive!"
Salesperson Luo Li said, "You get what you pay for. The quality of our community is considered very good among all the major real estate developments in Beijing. All the materials used in the high-end decoration are brand names. Moreover, the location is in the core area. The price is also reasonable. The real estate market has been sluggish in the past two years, so the pricing is not very high."
Zhou Mei asked, "How much is it per square meter?"
Luo Li said, "The 188-square-meter unit costs 160,000 yuan per square meter."
Zhou Mei was stunned and said, "160,000 per square meter? That means this apartment costs 30.08 million?"
Luo Li said, "Yes. Of course, we can offer some discounts; we can round down the 80,000."
Zhou Mei: "......"
Zhou Mei was truly shocked.
A house costing 30 million is too expensive.
In fact, this is the result after the price reduction. Before, top-tier properties in the core area of Beijing could sell for around 200,000 yuan per square meter.
This is a high-rise residential building; a villa would be even more expensive.
If it's a courtyard house, it's normal for a set to cost several hundred million.
Li Yi said, "Okay, let's go down and calculate the house price and taxes in detail."
Luo Li was a little surprised. She thought Li Yi and the others were just casually looking around. She had only been working there for a short time and actually wanted to practice her sales skills and eloquence, so she was very enthusiastic.
But now, these two want to buy it?
She immediately became excited: "Okay, this way please."
The three of them returned to the sales office and found a place to sit down.
The waiter immediately came over and asked, "Would you like coffee, tea, or orange juice?"
Li Yi: "I want orange juice."
Zhou Mei: "I'll have a glass of orange juice too."
The waiter poured two glasses of orange juice for Li Yi and Zhou Mei.
As the two drank water, Luo Li asked, "May I ask what percentage of the loan you're willing to take out?"
Li Yi: "No loan, full payment."
"Huh?" Luo Li was stunned.
Thirty million, paid in full?
This slipper guy is so extravagant!
"Okay, please have a seat for a moment. I'll go calculate it and print out a bill in a bit." Luo Li happily went to calculate the cost.
Two minutes later, she printed out a detailed expense statement.
The total price of the house is 30.08 million, rounded down to 30 million.
The major repair fund is 90 yuan per square meter, totaling 90 yuan.
The deed tax is 3% of the total house price, which is 900,000.
The registration fee for ownership is 80 yuan.
The total is over 30.91 million.
Zhou Mei's eyes widened when she saw it. She looked at Li Yi and said, "Brother, it's so expensive! Are you really going to buy it?"
Li Yi said, "You really want to buy it?"
Zhou Mei: "Huh???"
Luo Li: "Okay, please show me your ID card, and I'll process your paperwork right away."
Li Yi: "Mei'er, show me your ID card."
Zhou Mei: "Huh? Brother, then what do I need my ID card for?"
Li Yi: "Use your ID card to buy a house."
"??????" Zhou Mei was stunned and asked, "Brother, you should have used your ID card to buy the house."
Li Yi: "Silly girl, who said you bought this for me? This is for you. How can you and your mother live in this small house all year round? We need to move to a bigger house. It's closer to the school, and you can come back for a nap every day at noon."
Zhou Mei's eyes immediately welled up with tears.
