Selling house?
Li Dong really had this idea, but large flats were not as easy to sell as small houses, not to mention his two townhouses connected together.
When he bought this house, he planned to live in it himself, and he decorated and furnished it very nicely. However, he opened a branch in the city, and his children were young and had to go to school in the city. He had never lived in the house since it was renovated, so he planned to sell it.
After listing the house online for a while, Li Dong still hadn't met a suitable buyer, so he planned to rent it out first and then wait for a buyer. Unexpectedly, the tenant now directly became the buyer and asked him if he wanted to sell the house.
"I'm selling it. I'm planning to, but there are too many people waiting and watching, so I haven't found a suitable one yet."
It is said that the higher the housing prices go, the more people buy houses, but there are also many people who are waiting and watching. They hope that the housing prices will fall so that they can get a bargain. However, human nature is to buy when prices are rising and not when prices are falling. In the end, there are only two possible results: you can't afford to buy at all or you will regret buying too late.
In June 2017, housing prices in Shanghai were still rising strongly, and Xia Yu was optimistic about the prospects of this community.
"So, Uncle Li, how much are you planning to sell it for? I really want to buy it. After all, I still have two years to graduate, and paying rent is too much trouble."
If you think paying rent is too troublesome, just buy the house. It makes sense.
"Since you're really serious about buying it, Xiaoxia, how about 24,000 per square meter? It's called a second-hand house, but it's actually a new one. My wife, children, and I haven't lived in it for a single day since it was renovated."
What Li Dong said made sense. He moved in after the renovation and ventilation for a few months. It was no different from moving into a new house directly. But 24,000 was a bit high to be honest. Not counting taxes and fees, it would be 8.16 million, which was a big difference from his expected 7.5 million. The total cost was less than 8 million.
But business is all about asking for a high price and paying a low price, so just bargain directly.
"Uncle Li, twenty-four thousand is too much. I have a friend who specializes in renovations. I'm planning to redo it. If you like the furniture, you can take it all away and I can buy new ones. How about twenty-one thousand?"
Xia Yu chopped the price drastically, cutting off three thousand yuan per square meter.
The price of an unfinished house in the community is just over 20,000 yuan. Xia Yu bargained according to the price of the unfinished house. The extra 1,000 yuan is considered to compensate Li Dong for the loss of decoration.
"It's too little. Xiao Xia, how about 23,500?"
Li Dong smiled reluctantly. He didn't expect Xia Yu to cut off so many without blinking. Are all children from rich families so capable?
He doubted whether his son would be as capable as Xia Yu when he grew up.
"Twenty-one thousand five hundred, no more. Uncle Li, you know it cost me money to tear down and rebuild these renovations."
Xia Yu held on tight and only agreed to give up 500 yuan.
"Twenty-three thousand!"
Li Dong could still make a profit with 23,000 yuan. After all, he bought it cheaply, and the developer gave him a small discount after selling two units. But Xia Yu refused to budge and insisted on 21,500 yuan. This made it difficult to deal with.
"Twenty-two thousand five!"
"Twenty-two thousand yuan, Xiao Xia, it really can't be any less."
Seeing Li Dong's dilemma, Xia Yu knew that it was almost done, and the price had dropped to his desired level, but he still had to get some benefits for himself in the end.
"Uncle Li, 22,000 is fine, but I used all my pocket money for the first half of the year to buy that car. It'll take another half year to ask my family for more money. How about we sign the contract first and transfer the ownership when school starts in September?"
"Okay, I've already waited for half a year, so I'm not in a hurry for a few months."
Li Dong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xia Yu agreed, but Xia Yu was also relieved.
Now he simply couldn't afford the seven million. Every step in the negotiation was carefully designed by him. The first was to lower the price of the house to his psychological price, and the second was to delay time.
Three months is enough time for Xia Yu to save up for the house payment. Not to mention that he is about to be promoted, even if he is paid his current salary of 50,000 yuan a day, it will be 4.5 million yuan in three months. Add to that the rest from investing in the hotel, even if there is still a shortfall, he can just borrow some money from rich woman Jiang.
Verbal confirmation was not enough, and the two agreed to find an agent to sign the contract together at noon tomorrow.
When buying a house through an agent, even if it is a second-hand house, the commission is still very high. However, if the buyer and the seller reach an agreement, the agent can only earn a service fee, and Xia Yu and Li Dong can save a lot of trouble.
"Uncle Li, I'll pay you the rent for the next three months."
Before the transfer of ownership, Li Dong was still Xia Yu's landlord, so the rent naturally had to be paid. He would not take advantage of this few tens of thousands of yuan.
"Okay, just pay two months' rent tomorrow, and I won't refund the previous month's deposit."
The rent is one-third deposit and three-thirds rent in advance, so Xia Yu still has a deposit with Li Dong. He will have to return the money to Xia Yu when the property is transferred in September. It would be better to collect one month less now.
As for why he has to give it tomorrow, it’s because Xia Yu still has to pay a deposit after signing the contract tomorrow.
The deposit amount is not large, only 500,000, so Xia Yu will definitely be able to upgrade tomorrow.
After finishing the discussion, Li Dong saw that half an hour had passed, so he hurriedly invited Xia Yu to go out for dinner together.
Da Fei and his friends had a satisfying meal, but they didn't know that while they were driving the fattened cattle outside, Xia Yu had already negotiated an eight million dollar deal inside.
By the time Xia Yu had eaten his fill and drove them back to school, it was already nine o'clock in the evening. Xia Yu didn't stop for long. He dropped the three of them off at the school gate and then went straight back to the villa.
This scene was photographed and posted directly on the forum.
"Shocked! The scumbag who was once humiliated on the playground is now back in style in a Rolls-Royce - don't despise the poor young man!"
Unexpectedly, Da Fei’s previous scandal became popular again today because of Xia Yu’s car. When Xie Junjie @ saw these posts, Xia Yu also found it very funny.
However, the attention paid to Rolls-Royce is different from that of Mercedes-Benz. It seems that I have to ask Jiang Baiying to come to the school when I pick her up next time.
In addition to Xia Yu, there are many people who drive in the school, but they are all 2.3T wild donkeys, using 3 Series to pretend to be M3, which is not as impactful as Rolls-Royce.
In particular, someone pointed out in their reply that the model of this Rolls-Royce was Cullinan.
If you can get a car that will be released in several months now, you will have to pay at least double the price!
In fact, those who cannot buy it cannot buy it even if they pay extra, and those who can buy it can buy it without paying extra. The original invoices that Xia Yu has seen show that they are all charged at normal prices.
After finishing the morning class the next day, Xia Yu returned to the villa and drove to pick up Li Dong. The two of them went to the agency they had contacted together.
After signing the contract prepared in advance, 532,000 yuan was directly transferred from Xia Yu's account to Li Dong's account.
"Buzz~~"
Feeling the vibration of his phone, Xia Yu didn't have time to care about it for the time being. He put away the contract, stood up and shook hands with Li Dong.
