Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

Chapter 30 Buying a House (Part 2)

"This villa is really expensive. Each unit costs millions of Hong Kong dollars!"

"No, one million can buy several houses."

Before looking at the detailed information of the villa, Father Lin and Mother Lin were speechless just by looking at the price. Among these villas, the cheapest ones cost over one million Hong Kong dollars, while the most expensive ones cost two to three million Hong Kong dollars.

Lin Baicheng took a general look and found that these villas were either in Beverly Hills or Repulse Bay, and there were no villas in famous villa areas such as Mid-Levels and Victoria Peak.

"Ms. Tao, why are there no villas in Mid-Levels and Taipingshan here?"

Lin Baicheng asked Tao Lan, it was only 1977, he should still be able to afford one with tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars.

Tao Lan replied: "In these two places, either wealthy families or British gentlemen live in these two places, so there are very few houses for sale, and even if they are sold, they will be bought quickly. At present, the villas here already have owners. "

"That's it."

Lin Baicheng nodded when he heard this, but he thought of one thing, that is, when China and Britain negotiate on the return of Hong Kong, there will definitely be a large number of so-called British gentlemen and Hong Kong rich people running away, and then these people will sell in large quantities. The properties in hand, including Victoria Peak and the villas on the top of the mountain, are no exception.

By that time, Lin Baicheng happened to have more money, so he could take the opportunity to buy a few sets.

As for now, just choose a suitable one among the several villas here to live in temporarily.

Lin Qin pointed to a villa in the brochure and said: "Brother, let's buy a villa in Repulse Bay. It also comes with a beach. It's summer now. If we live here, we can go to the beach anytime in the future." .”

"Mom and Dad, what do you think?"

Lin Baicheng did not answer, but looked at his parents.

"Actually, we can all do it. It mainly depends on what you like. You don't need to consider us."

Zhao Huilan said that these villas are much better than the place where they live now, and in their opinion, no matter which villa is good.

"Sister, what about you?"

Lin Baicheng nodded and looked at Lin Shufang.

Lin Shufang looked at Lin Qin and said, "Like my parents, I can do either. Little brother, you can make your own decision."

"Then choose a villa near the sea in Repulse Bay."

Anyway, in Lin Baicheng's opinion, he would only stay here temporarily for a few years at most, and he would definitely move to a better place in the future, so he might as well fulfill Lin Qin's wish.

"There are two villas for sale in Repulse Bay. They both look similar. Since I bought them both, I don't have to pay too much, so I'll choose the better one."

In this regard, Lin's father and mother did not object. Anyway, they would have to spend more than two million Hong Kong dollars to buy a villa, which was not less than two hundred thousand.

Zhao Huilan asked Tao Lan: "This villa costs 2.3 million Hong Kong dollars. Is the current house price that expensive?"

"Madam, this is a villa. In Xiangjiang, the villa itself is much more expensive than an ordinary suite. As the saying goes, rare things are worth more."

Tao Lan answered first, and then explained: "The housing prices in each place are different. For suites, the housing price of new houses in the New Territories is only HK$150 per square foot. In Kowloon Peninsula, the average price of new houses is It costs about HK$200 per square foot, which is one-third more expensive than in the New Territories.”

"House prices here on Xiangjiang Island are even more expensive. In our southern district, it costs 250 HKD per square foot. If you change it to Central and Western District, Causeway Bay and other places, it will cost at least 300 HKD per square foot, which is more than twice the price in the New Territories."

"This is only the price of ordinary suites. The price of villas is often several times the price of suites. The prices in places such as Mid-Levels and Victoria Peak are even higher. The residents there are either wealthy families or celebrities with a certain status."

"Madam, the villa you are interested in has a construction area of ​​1,650 square feet, and it also has surrounding forest areas and beaches. It covers a total area of ​​3,500 square feet. The total price is 2.3 million Hong Kong dollars, which is not high."

"That's not how the price is calculated. The villa is surrounded by woods on three sides, so it is appropriate to give us some woods. Since the villa is close to the sea, it is even more appropriate to give us a beach. As for the size, even if it covers an area larger than that of the villa, Big, but that’s not worth much, is it?”

Lin Baicheng retorted, "How much are the woods and beaches worth? They are completely included, and they must be included. Otherwise, if you buy a villa, you will buy the villa itself. If you don't own anything around it, then what are you buying a villa for?" It's better to buy a suite.

Moreover, the price of the villa was higher than Lin Baicheng had imagined. When he bought a house in his previous life, he also learned about the price of villas and found that the price of ordinary villas in China was not much higher than that of suites. The reason why it was more expensive was that the villas were larger in area.

Of course, the villas mentioned here do not refer to the luxury houses bought by big guys. Not everyone can afford those prices, which can easily cost hundreds of millions or billions.

"Yes, that's what you said, sir."

Tao Lan smiled and nodded, and then talked about the goodness of the villa.

Lin Baicheng and others definitely wanted to make a counteroffer, and the HK$2.3 million listed was not Taikoo Shing's base price. There was room for counteroffering. Therefore, the two parties finally negotiated at a price of HK$2.1 million, which was equivalent to a discount of nearly 10%.

After negotiating the price of the villa, Lin Baicheng's family did not pay the money and leave immediately. Instead, they bought five more houses, each of which is a so-called thousand-foot mansion, which is about 100 square meters, and the total is more than 100 square feet. Thousands of Hong Kong dollars.

Although the price was negotiated, Lin Baicheng still did not pay immediately. Instead, he asked Tao Lan to take them to the site to see, especially to see if the real villa was the same as what was said in the brochure. If there is something that makes them dissatisfied, it is not impossible that they will not want the villa in the end.

It was natural to view the house, and of course Tao Lan could not refuse. She asked Lin Baicheng and his family to wait while she went to get the keys to the villa and several other houses.

The first thing we went to see was the villa in Repulse Bay. A group of eight people could fit in two cars.

When they arrived at the Repulse Bay Villa, Lin Haishan, Zhao Huilan and Lin Shufang were picking and choosing, saying that this was a problem and that was not good. In the end, they cut off another 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and Tao Lan would not agree to any more.

However, in general, everyone is very satisfied with this villa, so after looking at the villa, they decided to buy this villa at a price of just 2 million Hong Kong dollars.

After that, the group went to see five other houses. These were all standard suites, with an area of ​​more than 1,000 square feet. They were just different sizes. Tao Lan also took the initiative to give a 10% discount, so the Lin family did not Negotiate the price again.

After viewing the house, the group returned to the sales center in Taikoo Shing again, this time the transaction was about to be officially completed.

One villa and five houses, the total price was HK$3.6 million. Lin Baicheng paid it all in one lump sum without taking out a loan. These houses are bought to give the family peace of mind. Of course, it is impossible to obtain a loan, which would be meaningless.

Taikoo Shing was very fast and completed the transfer of the property on the same day. The property was certified to the Lin family and Lin Baicheng asked his parents to keep it.
