Selling the humid and temperature-controlled house to the wine merchant!
Lin Yuan looked at the Girl with a blank expression, then at the phone in her hand, which was broadcasting live footage. No wonder she found this place.
Recalling what had just happened, a thought flashed through his mind, and he asked uncertainly, "Are you here to buy a house too?"
The Girl's expression showed a hint of surprise upon hearing this. "You guessed that?"
Then, she explained with a smile, "The news about the incident at Lingshan Funeral Home spread early this morning. There are too few morticians now, and several funeral homes called me to offer me a job."
"I chose the most suitable one, Qingshan Funeral Home. I'm free today, so can you recommend a house close to my work?"
After listening to the Girl's explanation, everyone who was about to leave showed strange expressions and all looked at Lin Yuan, their eyes filled with admiration.
It was a well-known fact that houses were difficult to sell these days.
Prices were constantly dropping, and many people, despite having a need, tried to delay buying, fearing that they would buy one day and be working for the bank the next.
Only those who urgently needed a house, for marriage or other reasons, would buy.
But it was different when it came to Lin Yuan.
Some of them might not have been in a hurry, and some even had no great need.
More of them wanted to thank Lin Yuan and buy a house as a bonus.
From this, it could be seen that Lin Yuan was not just selling houses, but his personal favors.
Just like the three people who were about to buy houses now, except for the Girl, the other two owed him big favors.
The Girl herself had a need, plus the special incident last night, so it was understandable for her to buy a house from Lin Yuan.
It was also funny that these three people seemingly hadn't even been introduced to the houses from beginning to end, not even the layouts were mentioned.
Lin Yuan looked at the Girl, his heart already blooming with joy, and said with a chuckle, "That's great! Let's go together!"
"Mm-hmm, okay!"
Just like that, the group set off grandly for the real estate agency.
When the boss saw Lin Yuan arrive with a large group of people, his mouth almost split into a grin.
He quickly ran to the door to greet them: "Come, come, please come in, everyone. I'll pour you some tea."
Before they arrived, he had already learned through the live stream that these people were all here to buy houses, and they were buying three.
Lin Yuan was now a golden nugget, a fragrant bun, a little ancestor in his eyes.
Even if he were asked to help find a Client now, he wouldn't hesitate.
Since the three Clients had different needs, Lin Yuan couldn't take all three of them to view houses at the same time.
He had to select a few houses based on their situations, and then have other colleagues take them to view the houses.
As for himself, of course, he would accompany the Girl to view houses.
It just so happened that among the bizarre layouts the boss had given him before, there was a house next to a crematorium.
There were always large chimneys burning, and the smell was very unpleasant, with the air filled with calcium.
For most people, they couldn't stand that smell at all.
But for the Girl, she was already used to it.
Moreover, because that location was very remote, and no one bought it, the house price was shockingly low.
A 60-square-meter house was bought for less than 200,000 yuan.
But remote didn't mean there were no people, because the funeral home's business was booming all year round, and there were many businesses nearby, so life was still very convenient.
The Girl was quite satisfied with this layout.
She never expected to buy a house for less than 200,000 yuan.
Although it was a bit small, it was enough for her to live alone.
And according to her, all funeral homes were now implementing smoke-free policies.
It wouldn't be long before the pollution problem would no longer exist.
Lin Yuan couldn't help but click his tongue after hearing all this. Indeed, there was no worst house, only the most suitable one.
After several hours of hassle, all three people happily signed contracts and paid for their houses.
Before leaving, they specifically told Lin Yuan to find them for tea when he had time, and that they would definitely introduce friends who wanted to buy houses later.
Lin Yuan politely expressed his gratitude for all of this.
Until the last person was sent off, everyone at the agency was exhausted.
The boss waved his hand, "Let's go, my treat, a big meal!"
After lunch, at 2 PM.
Lin Yuan leaned back in the boss's chair, flipping through the Client and layout information in his hand, thinking about how to sell next.
He had just earned over 40,000 yuan in commission from that wave, plus the previous 120,000 yuan, bringing his assets to 160,000 yuan.
After selling houses to the deaf-mute person and the house near the crematorium to the mortician, he understood a principle.
Even the worst house has its unique advantages.
If he could make good use of this, dig out its advantages, and then find suitable Clients, there was no house that couldn't be sold.
Take this villa in front of him, for example.
Originally, the homeowner spent money and pulled strings to get approval for renovation documents to expand the basement. After hiring a designer, construction began.
At first, everything went smoothly. The basement expanded from over 100 square meters to over 300 square meters and was beautifully decorated. The whole family was very happy.
However, the good times didn't last. In less than a few months, the house was filled with a damp smell.
Moss grew all over the corners of the walls, the floor was wet, and some wooden furniture had started to rot.
After testing, the humidity in the basement reached 80%.
Such high humidity would cause moisture in the air to condense on walls, floors, furniture, and other surfaces, easily breeding mold and bacteria.
In addition, high humidity would also affect indoor air quality, making people feel stuffy and not breathable, easily leading to respiratory diseases and allergic reactions.
What's even more frustrating is that because it's a basement, it's not ventilated, and the moisture can't dissipate, maintaining a constant temperature between 12 and 15 degrees Celsius.
The only way to solve this problem is to use dehumidification equipment to continuously dehumidify all day long.
They initially thought it was due to poor waterproofing during construction.
However, after inspection and repairs, it was found that the waterproofing was done very well and there were no problems.
The real reason was that the groundwater level in this area was relatively high, and the moisture in the soil would continuously seep into the basement, causing the basement to be damp all year round.
The only solution was to demolish the entire basement, then wrap it completely with several thick layers of waterproofing.
That would be too costly and too much trouble, essentially rebuilding it.
The homeowner pondered for a moment and decided to give up. Instead of going through such a big effort to redo it, it would be better to sell it and buy a new house.
But who would buy a house with such high humidity?
Let alone the basement, even the detached villa above it was uninhabitable.
Compared to other houses nearby, the walls of his villa had already started to peel.
The walls had patches of marks, looking like an old woman with missing teeth, completely out of place with the surrounding environment.
All those who came to view the house basically took one look and ran away.
They bought villas for status and enjoyment of life, only a fool would buy such a house.
No matter how much the homeowner lowered the price, it was useless. Even the surrounding homeowners had complaints about his house, dragging down the overall house prices in the vicinity.
Because of this, the homeowner had already given up and had no hope.
If it were before, Lin Yuan would also think that this kind of house simply couldn't be sold.
But now, he discovered the advantages of this house.
Whether it was high humidity or constant temperature, it was perfectly suited for storing red wine.
Ever since he acquired the sommelier skill last time, he immediately thought of this aspect.
