"But……"
"God! Don't you, can't you be more careful? Besides, this money is lent to you, but you have to pay it back. As for the interest? Considering that it is the favor I have returned to you, I won't accept it. But when you have money, you must pay it back to me!"
Helen smiled and said to Jin Muchen, "They have said this. If Jin Muchen refuses, it will be a bit pretentious. He nodded.
"Don't worry! I will definitely do it!"...
On Monday afternoon, Jin Muchen, Fang Bo, and Helen completed the handover with James Patton at the original Patton factory.
First, we checked the full access to water and electricity, as well as some basic facilities to ensure that there is no problem with the house. If there are cracks in the wall or the roof is damaged, the original homeowner needs to invest in the repair.
Otherwise, such a house would be considered a dangerous house and could not be sold to others.
Then the lawyers from both parties came forward to check the contract and ensured that there were no suspected fraud clauses. Today, Jin Muchen's lawyer was recommended by Helen. He is a very famous lawyer in real estate, and of course the fees are not low.
But the victory is ≮≮,︾.¢.n△et professionally, and the contract was handed over to him and there was no problem.
At the same time, there is also a real estate appraiser on site. The real estate appraiser is designated by the local government. He will compare the sales prices of three to four houses sold nearby in the past six months, and estimate how much taxes and fees Jin Muchen should pay as a home buyer.
Jin Muchen couldn't escape the tax payment this time, and he didn't dare to go against the most powerful authority in the United States and the IRS, so he could only accept the accounts obediently.
However, this real estate appraiser is fair. The most important thing is that he and James Patton, and Helen all know each other, so they also give face and give discounts in some places where they can give discounts.
He even told Jin Muchen a few tips on deducting taxes and fees in a very obscure way, because the transaction amount was huge. The final approved taxes and fees were also relatively low, so he calculated one percent.
Although it is only one percent, there are three taxes, namely county tax, city tax, and school district tax. Anyway, it sounds very complicated when it goes around. Jin Muchen always understands it too much, so he leaves it for the lawyer to deal with him.
Finally, he had to pay more than 190,000 yuan in property tax, but fortunately, he didn't have to pay it immediately. He could wait until March 31 of the next year to pay it.
The lawyers of both parties confirmed that the contract was correct, and the appraiser probably went through a brief moment. Then the two parties signed a house purchase and sale contract, and then Jin Muchen passed the account for James through the computer.
Then the lawyer, James, and the real estate appraiser all left. When Helen saw that the transaction was completed, she did not stop. She greeted Jin Muchen and Fang Bo and said goodbye and left.
Uncle Fang looked at the house and began to measure it everywhere, feeling very satisfied with the house.
"Well, this area is indeed large enough. The single floor is nearly 100 square meters larger than my store. In this way, after the store is opened, the layout of the venue will not be so cramped. A two hundred square meters of open space is left in the front, and a fifty square meters behind can be divided into several small offices, or lounges, bathrooms, etc. Needless to say, the basement can be used as a studio, and storage room. Then, the second floor, the third floor and the fourth floor, and the second floor can be used as an exhibition room for valuable items. This is Manhattan. In your store, of course, you have to take out a few treasures from the store and put them upstairs, which are specially open to VIP customers. You can also separate a seating area for guests to rest and communicate. The third floor? Then I will live on the third floor, the kitchen and living room will be left on the third floor. You can go to live on the fourth floor. Haha, with such a large area, no matter how many girlfriends you have, you are not afraid?"
Fang Bo looked at Jin Muchen with a smile and said, "Jin Muchen had long been used to Fang Bo's gossip, but he just squeezed out a bitter smile."
Damn, I don’t know if I don’t buy a house. I have worked hard for twenty years and I have returned to the pre-liberation.
Whenever a house slave is in the country, he will become a house slave when he comes to the United States!
I originally thought that I could live a super-awesome rich life in New York with a million dollars, but then I bought a house and cleared my account. Not only did I owe others two million, but I also owed 200,000 yuan to the IRS.
Damn, it's so stressful!
The most important thing is to get the decoration of the house next, but originally it was not for people to live in, but a button factory, so the design of this house is designed according to the requirements of the factory and warehouse.
It is more than thirteen meters high, but in order to facilitate the entry and exit of large machinery and transportation vehicles, there are only two floors, and now it is empty.
If you want to convert this empty house into a commercial and residential house type, you still need to find a special design company to design it. If you follow Fang Bo’s just thought, it would cost a lot of money just to spend on construction and decoration.
Moreover, considering that I open a relatively high-end antique shop and my own people live here, the safety measures must be taken into consideration. At that time, the entire house will be redesigned and combined with security measures, it will probably cost more than one million yuan.
Damn, this is another big sum of money!
When Jin Muchen thought of this, he felt his head numb.
However, the house has been bought, and the place that should be installed and modified must be built, otherwise why should I buy a house?
At worst, I’ll take a few items of treasures. Think about it, it seems that I still have a few items in my hands now, hey!
By the way, the gold-tracing box that was taken away by Sotheby’s should have a result. Didn’t they say they would be arranged to be taken at the London Spring Auction?
When Jin Muchen thought of the box, his mood suddenly improved. He had been busy recently and was dizzy and forgot about the box.
After walking around the empty new home for a while, I discussed many issues about how to decorate the house, and then drove back to Flushing with the reluctant Fang Bo.
As soon as I stopped the car at the entrance of the store, I saw a black shadow coming out of a car across the street and running towards him quickly.
"Mr. Jin, Mr. Jin, you're back. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Jin Muchen turned his head and saw that it turned out to be Andre from Christie's. This guy took a painting from him last time, and brought someone to see the table a few days ago.
By the way, when I came back from Los Angeles, I was thinking about calling him, but because of the matter of buying a house, I would forget about this matter.
"Hello, Andre, I've gone out before. Sorry, you've been waiting for me here for so long, why didn't you call me?"
"Why didn't you hit me? I've hit several of them, but you haven't answered me. I thought you had something important, so I didn't hit me anymore."
When Jin Muchen heard this, he hurriedly took out the phone and saw that there were indeed seven or eight missed calls on it. Only then did he remember the scene of considering the house handover negotiations before, so he muted the phone.
He quickly apologized to Andre and then let him into the room.
"Mr. Jin, I believe this Mr. Fang also told you that last time I brought our company's experts to check the table. I came to you this time to tell you that the identification of carbon 14 has been passed and is an antique from the 18th century. However, several experts from our company still have some disputes about the origin of this desk. They hope to remove the table teachings of these tables. This is quite beneficial for identifying the entire table and finding the origin of the table. So I hope you can agree to it by Mr. Jin."
Andre said to Jin Muchen sincerely. Jin Muchen didn't hesitate at all. With the purple jade space, would he be afraid that the other party would break the table?
But we still have to say what we should say.
"Andre, what do you think is the way to remove the table leg? And what if the table is broken?"
"Please rest assured about this. Mr. Jin, our appraisers are all very professional."
Jin Muchen chuckled, Andrei's face was a little embarrassed. In fact, everyone in the circle knew that these so-called professional appraisers were not involved in any trouble?
But as a salesperson, you must be thick-skinned. Andre just blushed slightly, and then continued.
"We just saw a circle of thick black rubber pads on the four legs of this table. It felt strange, so I wanted to take them off and take a look. And Mr. Jin, you don't have to worry about any damage to the table during the disassembly. First, we have insurance, and second, since you also want to know the origin of this table, how can you not take any risks, right? If you have to determine the origin of this table by removing these rubber pads, Mr. Jin, think about it, then you will make a profit? The value of this table will immediately rise? It will increase several times, or even dozens of times, which is not impossible? In that case, won't you make a profit? What's more, our appraisal is completely free and you won't charge a penny!"
Although this Andre looks quite honest, he is really good at fooling people when he is so gorgeous.
If Jin Muchen didn't understand the ability, he might have been fooled by him, but he was a person who knew the ability after all.
