Chapter 73: $165 Million Mansion


This astronomical figure is: 165,000,000, and the unit of currency is the US knife.Fira heard the number.The surprised all cried out.His eyes widened in disbelief.Abel also looked sideways slightly.$165 million!

Outrageously expensive.If this number is converted into soft sister coins, it will cost almost one billion.A billion houses.Hehe......

Words in China.Except for some historical monuments and the like, even the courtyard houses in those hutongs rarely reach this price.Abel did a quick mental arithmetic.Purchase this $165 million ultra-luxury estate villa.In addition to this one-time cash payment of $1.65.At least one or two million dollars are invested in repair and maintenance work each year.Moreover, in such a large manor villa, if two masters live, there must be at least seven or more servants serving.1 to 2 cooks.Three or so housekeeping attendants.2 to 3 gardeners or cleaners.It's pretty rudimentary.If the pomp and circumstance are a little extravagant, then the number is more than doubled.Study the words of the so-called nobles of Britain.The number of this service staff will be multiplied several times.Compared to the British side.The local tyrants on Lao Mei's side are actually very simple.The rich aristocrats over there have specially cleaned the shoes of their masters, cleaned the swimming pool, designed special itineraries, and even invited a special person to walk the dog.It even requires more than 100 professional maids to serve the family.The 7 to 8 people counted by Abel are really simple compared to the local tyrants in Britain.But even these 7 to 8 people need to pay about 1 million yuan a year.To maintain the operation of such an ultra-luxurious estate, the annual investment is almost as high as 2 million to 3 million US dollars.In addition to the necessary effort.When buying a house in Europe and the United States, there is another important factor to calculate.That is the real estate tax that many people in China are very interested in.That's right, as long as you buy Lao Mei's house, even the house and land are held by you permanently.Unlike China, there is a 70-year property right in China.Spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy a piece of land, and the land will always be yours.You can pass it on to your children when you die, your children can pass it on to your grandchildren, and your grandchildren can pass it on to your descendants when you hang up.Come to think of it, isn't it tempting?

Hehe.The fart people will never have a government spirit!

Yes, if you buy a piece of land in Lao Mei, you do have the permanent ownership of this land.Exclude the dreaded inheritance tax.Want to own the land or the house.Property tax must also be paid annually.You can choose not to pay.According to the regulations on the California side.Consequences of not paying property tax.From the beginning of the next fiscal year, after 5 fiscal years, the title of the house will be transferred to the state government in preparation for the next auction.Of course, at any time before the official auction, the original owner can still get the title back as long as they pay all the money.But if it is officially auctioned, the owner permanently loses the title and cannot get it back.The tax rate is based on the price of the real estate you own.It's about between 1% and 3%.The price of real estate is assessed by a special department, and an annual tax is levied on the basis of this assessed value.So it's not that you bought this house for 1 million at the beginning, you only pay this 1 million taxes every year.But if your house rises to more than 2 million, the tax you have to pay must be 1% to 3% of the more than 2 million.Taxes on the California side depend on the place.Floats between 1.2% and 2%.Beverley's side is the highest.That's a 2% real estate tax per year, 165 million times 0.02, about $3,300,000.Even if you buy a house but don't live in it, you have to pay more than $3 million in taxes every year.If you don't pay it, just wait for it to be confiscated!

The result of Abel's mental calculation is that inflation and real estate capital increase are not taken into account.Such a manor house.In addition to the $165 million purchased, at least $6 million or more will be invested every year in the future.Ten years is 60 million.That's $600 million in 100 years.It's scary to think about.And Ms.

Anne Umansky, a luxury real estate practitioner in Los Angeles's elite, is worthy of the elite.After quoting this sky-high price again, I immediately paid attention to the reactions of Abel and Fila.Fira's response was immediate.They all cried out in surprise just now.The expression on his face was shocked.Anne directly ignored Fira's attitude.She knew that the house could not be sold today, mainly by the man next to her.She quickly observed the expression of the man next to her.After looking at it for a while, Anne didn't see anything.Abel's expression didn't change.It's just silence.Anne hurriedly followed her own strategy and immediately followed: "Of course.This is the preliminary price quoted by the owner of the house.The price is negotiable.It should be able to lower quite a bit. ”"Oh?"

Abel looked at her.Anne has a play.In fact, the price of this house is $165 million, and it is indeed true.But this price is the price quoted by the owner of the house on major real estate websites and companies.This type of luxury real estate.Eliminate market factors.The price quoted by the host is often negotiable.The price of the transaction is always lower than the price quoted by the owner.Anne said: "Based on the price assessed by last year's appraisal agency.The tax paid by this house is about $2 million!

”$2 million in real estate taxes, then the house should be about $100 million in the appraisal.Evaluate a $100 million house and dare to sell it for $165 million.The original owner was really ruthless.Abel frowned: "According to this calculation, this price is a bit exaggerated." ”"Hehe......"

Anne laughed, "the original owner is having a little trouble in his business.There is an urgent need for liquidity to sell this house in such a privileged location and such a large size.Based on the price fluctuation of luxury real estate in Los Angeles this year, I predict that it can be won between $110 million and $130 million. ”Tens of millions of dollars cheaper.Abel thought for a moment and looked at Fira next to him.Fila bowed her head and said, "It's too expensive." ”Abel asked rhetorically, "Do you like it?"

Let's be honest. ”Fira hesitated.Nodding.Such a fantastic house.What teenage girl doesn't like?

This is a place where you can only live in fantasy.It's all false to say that you don't like it.Abel likes it too.Mainly, big, very big.Able turned to Anne and asked, "Can you contact that gentleman?"

If the price is around $120 million, I can sell it right away. ”"No problem!

It's my job!

”Anne frowned.If this business can be done.Her commission is very high!
