Chapter 318 It’s Too Cheap
The six top-notch Beverly Hills villas chosen by Fang Hexuan are really not up to par in terms of luxury in Europe and the United States.

But this is similar to the villas on the Peak in Hong Kong. They are not big and not comfortable enough, but their location makes them the top luxury homes in people's minds.

Therefore, this general perception of scarcity has naturally caused the housing prices for luxury homes in Beverly Hills to remain high for a long time.

At this time, the beautiful agent Sophia spoke with a smile on her face.

"Mr. Fang, Miss Seymour, the villa we are visiting now has an excellent location and view. The area of ​​the villa is in the entire Beverly Hills. It is not the best, but at least in the top five. But combined with the location, it is truly unique."

"This villa is an asset of an oil tycoon. Due to personal reasons, he had to sell it. This is a very rare opportunity."

"The garden here is spacious enough, with birds singing and flowers blooming, pleasant scenery, and complete functional facilities. It is suitable for living and home, and is very suitable for self-residence."

Walking all the way from the bottom of the mountain to the top, Fang Hexuan was quite satisfied with the current villa, which was indeed the best in all aspects among the 15 villas. He couldn't help but look around the surrounding environment and then walked to the garden adjacent to the living room on the first floor.

This garden should be located in the southeast direction and covers an area of ​​about 300 square meters. In addition to a small fountain pool, the rest is green lawns and low bushes around it.

There are no tall trees here, not even slightly taller short trees, for the simple reason that we don't want these plants to block the most breathtaking scenery.

At the very edge of the garden is an artificial cliff about eight or nine meters high, separating the entire villa from the villas below.

Standing here and looking down, you can overlook the entire cityscape of Los Angeles, and the blue Pacific Ocean in the distance can also be seen very clearly.

Fang Hexuan put his hands in his pockets, letting the sea breeze blow on his body. He looked down at the layers of villas below the mountain and the streets and vehicles of Los Angeles, feeling quite heroic as if he was standing on top of the mountains.

If you put a dining table here, it would be quite pleasant to sip fine wine at night while admiring the night view of the city and the beauty of the sea and sky.

Stephanie followed over. She was also so mesmerized by the scenery that she was completely oblivious to Sofia's explanation of the villa information just now.

Although Sophia has only been in this business for two years, her ability to read people's expressions has surpassed many veterans.

She was 100% sure that the villa could be sold, and the only thing left was to bargain over the price in US dollars.

The oil tycoon's minimum price for her company was 2200 million US dollars. How high the price could be sold for depended on their ability.

Therefore, the company suggested that she bid $3200 million. The commission points would also vary depending on the selling price.

However, even if it is sold at the lowest price of US$2200 million, Sofia can still get a commission of more than US$30.

Don’t think that $2200 million is not a high price. It is still only 1982 and the purchasing power of the US dollar is very strong. Taking into account the annual inflation and the artificial speculation in the real estate industry, if this villa is put on the market in 2024, the estimated asking price will be $9000 million.

Many estates covering hundreds of acres in Europe and the United States may not be sold for $9000 million, so $2200 million is really a high price today.

Since there is no price marked on the property information, how to cleverly make an offer depends entirely on the real estate agent's own judgment.

Sophia is very smart. She thinks that since Mr. Fang is a super rich man, he must be well-off.

But after spending more than seven hours together and observing him, she found that although he was young and rich, he was not as extravagant and arrogant as many second-generation rich people. On the contrary, he was steady and thoughtful, which meant that he would not be easily influenced by other people's opinions. Therefore, Sophia thought that instead of offering Mr. Fang a high price, it would be better to tell him a realistic price to leave a good impression on him.

After all, although the rich are not short of money, they are not all fools and they will bargain.

There are people who have no shortage of money and will pay whatever others ask, but you rarely meet them.

Fang Hexuan was still admiring the scenery at the foot of the mountain when he heard a silver bell-like voice saying:
"Mr. Fang, Miss Seymour, if you decide to buy this villa, I will not beat around the bush and directly give you a reasonable price, how about that?"

Fang Hexuan turned around, smiled faintly, said nothing, and just nodded.

Stephanie also looked at Fang Hexuan and then at Sophia with anticipation, hoping that the two could reach a purchase agreement.

"2700 million US dollars, we can guarantee that all transfer procedures will be completed within a week."

This price was also a number Sofia came up with after careful analysis. The homeowner gave a reserve price of 2200 million US dollars, so the agency naturally couldn't really sell it at this price. Even if it was a little higher, people would feel more comfortable.

What's more, if the agent always asks the homeowner to make concessions, wouldn't that make him seem incompetent?
Therefore, she mentioned the figure of 2700 million only after ensuring that the company had a reasonable profit, she had a relatively substantial commission, and the homeowner was relatively satisfied.

When Stephanie heard the offer, she felt a little nervous. She thought that although the house was great, it was also shockingly expensive.

But Fang Hexuan was a little surprised. Although he had read some information about the American real estate industry, he did not expect that the luxury villa on the top of Beverly Hills would be less than 3000 million US dollars.

Although he had never bought a house here in his previous life, he had purchased properties in Britain and Australia. Basically, the starting price of a luxury house is tens of millions of dollars. As for those top-notch luxury houses, he had seen some of the richer guys he knew who spent hundreds of millions of dollars.

After analyzing and thinking about it in my mind, I realized that this quotation was a normal one and I was not getting a big bargain.

However, Fang Hexuan was not someone who liked to be led by the nose. He nodded to Sophia, and then said in a deep voice:

"I don't have time to bargain, and I don't like to do what others say. $2600 million, if you can make the decision, we will sign the contract immediately after we go down the mountain."

When Stephanie heard this, her heart tightened at first, and then her fair and pretty face suddenly lit up with joy.

Sophia didn't show much expression. She just pretended to think for more than ten seconds, then nodded and smiled slightly.

"Mr. Fang, deal!"

Among the six selected houses, the last one was sold in less than a quarter of an hour, making the other four real estate agents' eyes red with envy.

What made them even more jealous was that among the remaining 5 sets, one was represented by Sofia.

It is precisely because the performance of this beautiful agent is so outstanding and she has become well-known in the real estate industry in Los Angeles that many homeowners who own high-quality properties are willing to entrust their houses to her for agency.

It can only be said that the strong will always be strong. Sophia's appearance, figure, and professional qualities all make Fang Hexuan feel good. Otherwise, even if the house is good, how could he buy two from her?
