Chapter 278 I have to buy another set!
Nowadays, people sell their houses mainly because they want their children to get married.
Especially now that high-rise buildings have been introduced, many people are unwilling to live in this kind of courtyard. If they want to live in a high-rise building, they can only sell their old houses.
This is a type of person who sells their house.
There are several other categories, some want to buy a big color TV after selling their house, some want to start a business after selling their house, and some want to try their luck overseas after selling their real estate in the mainland at a discount.
The owner of the house that Shen Zhiyou and his friends are looking at now belongs to the last category.
There has been a craze for going abroad in the past two years, and long queues are seen in front of the consulates in the capital and Shanghai every day.
I want to go abroad to make a fortune and earn US dollars.
"This house is definitely a bargain right now. The owner is raising money to go abroad. He sold a house in the yard last month. The house was not as well maintained as this one, and it cost 10,000 yuan. Now this one is only 8,000 yuan. If you miss this one, you won't be able to buy it at this price again."
The room bug is telling the truth.
Gu Ye was thinking, because Shen Zhiyou, who inexplicably knew the subsequent development trajectory, was settling accounts.
This is the heart of the capital, very close to the Forbidden City. In thirty or forty years, a courtyard here will cost hundreds of millions!
This sold the yard to make money overseas........
House bugs deal with all kinds of people every day. Those who can buy a house now are not ordinary people.
I just heard them say that they all came here directly from home.
People who live around here must be very serious.
Besides...he thought this lesbian's voice sounded a little familiar!
However, in this line of work, the most taboo thing is to get too close to others. If you do, you will be forced to lower your price, so Fang Chongzi deliberately pretended not to know them.
"You guys should take your time to think about it, there are several more people waiting to see the house!"
Gu Ye glanced at his watch. It was still early. "Are there any other houses? Bigger ones?"
Fang Chongzi's eyes lit up, "Yes, but that's a second courtyard, so the price is higher."
"Take a look first."
"Okay, I happen to have the key. It's just a little bit in front. The location isn't as good as this one, but it's more than 100 square meters larger, with two more bedrooms, a toilet, a dining room, and two utility rooms."
Fang Chongzi led them forward. Shen Zhiyou and Gu Ye followed behind him. They tugged at his clothes and asked in a low voice, "Why did you buy such a big one?"
Although he would deposit a portion of the allowance Gu Ye gave him directly into the bank every month, he would give the passbook to her after the money was deposited.
Shen Zhiyou knew how much savings their family had.
Buy the one you just bought, and you will still have some money left after buying it.
If you buy a two-in-one, you will be very tight on money.
Gu Ye: "When my parents get older, they might want to come over to live with us. The room we just had is not big enough."
Shen Zhiyou’s eyes widened instantly.
The parents here definitely do not refer to Gu Ye’s parents, but Shen Dahe and Chen Cuijuan.
Not long after Gu Ye's mother passed away, Gu's father remarried.
Not long after the new daughter-in-law was married into the family, on the 100th day of Gu's mother's birthday, Gu's father suddenly fell and passed away that night.
Every time this matter was mentioned, Shen Zhiyou felt inexplicably frightened.
After listening to this, Gu Ye was silent for a long time, then bought a ticket and went back alone without letting Shen Zhiyou and the others go with him.
The second courtyard is also nearby, and it takes about ten minutes to walk there.
The room bug took out the key and opened the door. "This room is a little older and not well maintained. If you move in later, I will definitely repair it. But the layout is definitely better than the previous one. There are more rooms, and each room is more spacious."
It is indeed more spacious.
Not to mention the main house, the several side rooms are much larger than the one we just had.
"How much is this one?"
"This one is a bit more expensive, fourteen thousand."
Fourteen thousand!
Shen Zhiyou took a deep breath, as their family’s total savings were less than 20,000 yuan.
Gu Ye has a high salary, and his salary has almost doubled after his promotion in recent years.
When Shen Zhiyou was a teacher in school and when he just graduated and joined the provincial TV station, his salary was only in his thirties or forties. It has only increased in the past two years.
The combined salary of the couple is indeed quite a lot.
But there are four children in the family, and their daily expenses are not small. Over the years, it was thanks to Gu Ye that he would save part of his allowance every time, that he was able to save this money.
"Fourteen is a bit expensive, so we'll buy it for twelve."
The house bug said in embarrassment: "The owner of the house is definitely not willing to sell it for 12,000 yuan. Now the price has been reduced by 2,000 yuan."
Now that house prices have not risen, you can buy a small yard for two thousand yuan.
"We have also visited the house in person. The damage to the house is too serious. If we buy it, it will cost us a lot of money to repair it ourselves."
This is the truth.
Anyone who has just entered the courtyard can move in directly.
But this house is uninhabitable unless you spend some time to renovate it. The windows and doors in several rooms are broken.
However, Gu Ye and Shen Zhiyou both agreed that the old house could be renovated.
If you buy a smaller house, it will be troublesome to move to a bigger one.
And according to Gu Ye's observation, many people have come to the capital from other places in the past two years, and the most important thing for them to do when coming to the capital is definitely to buy a house.
The price of houses will only go higher.
Now you can buy such a big yard with ten thousand yuan, but it will be difficult to buy a small yard with ten thousand yuan later.
Fang Chongzi was a little embarrassed, but when he saw that Shen Zhiyou and the others really wanted to buy the house, he said that he would go talk to the owner first.
On the way back from viewing the house, the little ones were so excited.
"Mom and Dad, do we really want to buy a house? That house just now was so big!"
When they were young, they liked stairs that they could climb up and down, but now they still find this kind of large bungalow better.
"Um."
Gu Ye nodded. He and Shen Zhiyou had the same idea. They both liked to live a stable and down-to-earth life. Living in a public housing was good, but there was uncertainty.
Moreover, the building has only two courtyards in the front and back, so the space for activities is limited.
This house has a big yard. If Chen Cuijuan and her family come here to live there in their old age, they won’t feel bored.
The next day, the house bug gave a reply, and the landlord's response was to compromise and pay 13,000 yuan.
Gu Ye refused to let go.
If I say twelve thousand, it means twelve thousand.
Seeing the man’s determined attitude, Shen Zhiyou was worried that he would not be able to buy the house.
On the third day, the house thief told them: "The owner is willing to sell, but he needs to complete the formalities and get the money as soon as possible."
Gu Ye smiled and said, "Okay."
There is now a very complete process for buying and selling houses.
After paying the money, getting the keys, registering with the Housing Authority and the Land Bureau and getting the property certificate and land certificate, Shen Zhiyou felt a sense of unreality.
Have they bought their own house in the capital?
Or a 400-square-meter house? !
If she remembered correctly, the housing price here in the future was 200,000 yuan per square meter, but now it can be bought for 12,000 yuan...
He swallowed and asked Gu Ye: "How do you know that the other party will agree to sell it at this price?"
The man smiled and said, "The three sons of the homeowner are waiting for the money from the sale of the house to buy a house in the company and marry a wife. The homeowner is waiting to have a grandchild, so he must be more anxious than us."
Three sons......
After saying this, Shen Zhiyou and Gu Ye looked at each other. It seemed that their family also had three sons and a daughter!
If later......
Shen Zhiyou shook her head: "No, no, our children are all sensible and capable, and they won't fall to the point of selling their parents' retirement home."
But after saying it, I still felt uneasy.
What if?!
After the owner sold the house, the old couple went to squeeze into the old public housing of only 20 square meters allocated to them by their workplace.
If they...
No, I have to buy another set!
This way, if they need money in the future, they can sell one house and still have one to live in!
