good old days

Of course, the houses Zhou Qi looked at had clear property rights and could be traded.

Although he thought they might only buy one set of yards, he still found five suitable sets for them to choose from.

There are two houses around their house, one is about the same size as their house, and the remaining one costs upwards of 10,000 yuan, and the area is larger than his house.

There is another set near the Xinmen Hotel that is under construction, one in Nanluogu Alley, and one in the south two streets outside Dongfeng Market. It is a small second floor facing the street.

The one near Xinmen Hotel was priced at 25,000, and this one was the most expensive. Wang Sumei's eyes widened when she heard it.

Jiang Xinyu was also stunned when she heard that in the 1980s, the asking price was 25,000. What would the yard look like?

In addition to keeping the 10,000 yuan for the purchase and her mother-in-law's bankbook, she had more than 38,900 yuan left after buying the electrical appliances.

Before, I was so proud that I felt like I had a lot of money in my pocket. But after hearing Zhou Qi’s price explanation, I realized that I was still a little poor.

It was only noon, and there were still several hours before dark. Wang Sumei fried three vegetables with her hands and feet, and then set off to look at the yard after a few people had finished eating.

The weather hadn't warmed up yet, so the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left the child in the house for Song Yahui to take care of for a long time. The TV was on, and Song Yahui was naturally not bored.

"Mom, you really don't like this little western-style building?"

After passing the small foreign building, Jiang Xinyu asked again.

If you buy a property now, no matter where you buy it, it will appreciate in value in the future. After you clean it up, whether you rent it out or sell it, you will make a lot of money.

Wang Sumei shook her head, "We already have a yard here, so it would be superfluous. Moreover, I sneaked in last time and stood on a stool and looked in through the window. The inside was smashed to pieces. Something was splashed on the wall, and the large black patch looked like blood to me. It was troublesome to clean up, and it was a bit unlucky."

I have never lived in a foreign-style building. The appearance of that small foreign-style building looked really nice. Wang Sumei naturally had some thoughts about it, but after taking a sneak peek, she stopped thinking about it. The inside was as spooky as a haunted house, and she didn't dare to want it.

Jiang Xinyu really didn't expect the situation in the small foreign-style building. She was not superstitious, but she didn't have to do anything about the small foreign-style building.

Her first target was the small second floor facing the street two streets away from the market.

Since small businesses were allowed to run small businesses, there were fewer vacant houses on the street. Those with connections rented houses through major state-owned units to do business, and cleverly converted their houses facing the street into storefronts.

The second floor of this small building is not facing away. There is a newspaper office on the left and a newly opened restaurant on the right. Sandwiched in the middle is a small facade. It is six or seven meters long, but it is quite deep inside.

Zhou Qi: "The total is 148 square meters, and the asking price is 12,000. I think the price is very suitable. You can rent it out after buying it. The annual rent can start at 1,000."

Jiang Xinyu thinks the price is okay. Their shop in the market is only about 40 square meters, and the annual rent is nearly 500.

Wang Sumei took a breath, God, wouldn't it be possible to make money back in twelve years?

"How come no one buys such a good thing?"

Zhou Qi looked at her with strange eyes.

He could only say that Aunt Wang would feel that twelve thousand yuan was nothing now that she had a thick waist.

On the street, a fried dough stick costs 4 cents, a cup of soy milk costs 3 cents, and a bowl of Yangchun noodles costs 8 cents. When the per capita salary is dozens of yuan, 10,000 yuan is a sky-high price for most people.

Normal people would calculate this calculation. The rent of 1,000 yuan will be paid back in twelve years, but how many people in this city can afford 12,000 yuan?

According to some documents he read, in the year after the reform, less than 1% of the households with 10,000 yuan appeared in a city! He would know this figure because households worth ten thousand yuan are included in the political achievements of officials in various places, so there should be no problem with the approximate figure.

"Auntie, who is thinking about buying a house like us now? How many of them can afford so much money?" Almost all residents in the city have work units, and houses are allocated by work units. The welfare housing allocation system and everyone's wages and Everyone’s understanding that houses belong to the state and cannot be bought or sold has led to the current lack of real estate market.

Wang Sumei nodded: "That's what you said."

If Jiang Xinyu likes this street-facing storefront, she can rent it out as soon as she gets it.

“Can I still negotiate with the landlord?”

Zhou Qi: "I heard from the housing management bureau that his family is planning to go abroad. The house has been listed for more than half a month. It should be very urgent. If you are interested, I will connect you and build a bridge and you can negotiate on your own."

After looking at the second floor, I went to Houhai. Jiang Yuzhu walked a long way today and went home to rest when he arrived at the entrance of the courtyard.

It's past three o'clock now, and I have to take the bus back after seeing the two courtyards near Zhou Qi's house.

Zhou Qi said as he walked: "The big one behind my house has been sold and is being renovated recently. I wanted you to consider it last time."

When they arrived at the place, Zhou Qi took his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to introduce it: "Don't look at the poor yard. It is a two-person house, but it is more than 90 square meters larger than my house. It has a cross-yard."

This place is not ordinary.

Jiang Xinyu frowned and asked, "How much did it cost to repair your house?"

She originally thought she was quite rich, but if she planned to buy two sets, she didn't know if they would be enough to repair, and she didn't feel safe if she didn't keep any on hand.

Zhou Qi made a three sign and said, "Including the furniture, it cost more than three thousand two hundred."

Jiang Xinyu knew that the furniture in his courtyard was all good, and the bed her sister slept on had a spring mattress.

"Not counting furniture?"

"One thousand and nine."

Jiang Xinyu frowned. She heard from her sister that her courtyard house was well-preserved. It cost one thousand and ninety-nine yuan to keep it well-preserved. The dilapidated courtyard at her feet would cost at least two thousand yuan to clean up.

Zhou Qi probably knew that she was settling accounts and quoted the price of 13,000 yuan.

To be honest, in comparison, he thinks his courtyard house is more cost-effective.

It was five thousand yuan more than ninety square meters, and it was still so broken... He felt that he was being a little unkind, but he didn't set the price.

"There is a lake right outside the door. There are no old trees over there. They have a history of many years. If you buy here, you will not suffer any loss or be cheated."

Jiang Xinyu: "It's broken and expensive."

It’s not that I can’t buy it, and I’m sure I won’t lose money if I buy it, but now it looks terrible, so I pack it up and put money in it, which is annoying.

Wang Sumei didn't take a fancy to this house either. If it weren't for the brick house, she wouldn't have seen it as as stylish as the big blue brick house that belonged to Liu Laosan of the Advance Brigade.

After looking at this one, there is another one. It is about the same size as Zhou Qi's yard, but it is as dilapidated as the one just now. It is located in a courtyard group, and it is not a lake when you go out. But it is cheaper, also only 8,000.

I checked out these three apartments today. After dinner at home, my mother-in-law and my daughter-in-law discussed it and decided that we could buy the second floor facing the street and rent it out to make money. If the trend remains the same in the future, this would be a sure profit. of trading.

As for the other house in the plan, I have to wait until I see the yard in Nanluoguxiang before making any plans.
