"I did not buy a room in Silicon Valley, she broke up with me"

In 2017, Guangshen entered into a white-hot state in the north, and every time a new purchase policy is introduced, the wait-and-seers will be hot-talked about.

A group of friends scrutinizing the price rise again, thinking 'do not buy it really can not afford' and finally decided to 'get in the car' to become a new member of the loan to buy a house army. Room, to persuade both parents of all kinds of stories, can definitely be made into a 80 episodes of "North Guangshengqianfangji" TV series.

In Silicon Valley of the United States, though far away from the Pacific Ocean, the Chinese people who buy their own home are also trying to make a suitable house for their 18-year-old martial arts. Not only do they have sufficient financial resources, energy, and brokers, and sometimes But also to sellers to write an affectionate 'Proposition essay'.

Today, we will take you to listen to the 2017 Silicon Valley 'get in the car' and 'did not squeeze the car' home buyers stories in preparation for buying a house in Silicon Valley in 2018 you make a contribution.


Know thyself is the premise, thoughtful 'school district room'

"The Art of War," there is a cloud: 'Know thyself, know yourself.' 'Before buying a house, not only to understand their own purchasing power, but also to obtain data on the real estate market.' Success 'on the train' s Li own shopping experience Weiwei Come to the small trail.

Old Lee family two years ago just moved from Silicon Valley to Silicon Valley in Silicon Valley life, for many Chinese men and sisters, is the wife and children hot kang head .For the wife and children have to find a house in Silicon Valley to continue His 'hot white picket'.

After feeling countless 101 lanes rush hour, Lao Li on the location of the house on a request: anti-traffic commute .According to this request, that the choice of location in Silicon Valley range is too large .Luo Li made a difficult.

At this time, Lao Li's wife came out, saying his wife came out, a top two Lao Li wife first cash cleared from his account, friends found a reliable Loan Officer, planning out The amount of loanable.Although the scope of the price of housing at the same time, Lao Li wife also contacted by a colleague's recommendation to a Silicon Valley gold medal intermediary.

In addition to their own Internet search information, Lao Li wife also broke through with intermediaries Ruanmoyingpao to the intermediary company selling the last two years of data.Looking from a small math Lee old wife, in line with the United States price 'cheaper' principle, the data from start to finish Carefully touched some of the tail, and finally identified the specific showings of the five cities.

Unlike the concept of a domestic city, in a Silicon Valley, a city usually has the same size as a township in the country, so many people go to work in five or six cities on their way to work.

The show tour has finally come in. Lao Li and his wife's trip this weekend two shifts, the length of the journey unknown.

Unlike other places asking for advice, buy a house in Silicon Valley, has always been in the house price increases only.Why? Silicon Valley supply in short supply, and school district even more so.

Take the 'Universe Center' near Stanford University's Palo Alto City, where the minimum price for two bedroom, one bedroom detached houses was $ 1.2 million in 2017, or about eight million yuan, the average selling price has already exceeded 2 million US dollar, about 14 million yuan. A five-room house transaction price as high as 9 million US dollars, about 60 million yuan.

Not to mention the house more than the old and more broken, just you can 'grab' to a set, it delights.

Different from the national high school entrance examination into the focus of high school model, in the United States your high school is completely determined by the district you live in. And a school will be in accordance with the enrollment rate, teacher quality to score 1-10 points.

Palo Alto features two of the nation's famous 10-point 'High School': Palo Alto High and Genn High.

Parents in order to allow children to enter these two schools, often crowded around to buy a house, which has become one of the reasons school district housing prices are high.

The small number of new homes in Palo Alto and the small number of homes ready for sale are another important reason why property prices in the area have remained high for years.

Coupled with the rising prices, families willing to sell are in wait-and-see conditions and the houses are less expensive and expensive, leaving many double-income families to ignore Palo Alto's house.

Although Palo Alto's house is expensive, Lao Lee still has to become a second-grader in high school.

Critical moment, the wife of Lao Li once again made a wise decision.Because in Lao Li, the district where Lao Li are white, the children grew up in the 'white area', a lot of hobbies and white people Children 'closer.

Most of the 10-point schools in Silicon Valley have their primary source of Chinese, while Genn School like Palo Alto has long had students who commit suicide because they could not withstand academic pressure.

In order to let children learn in a more diversified environment, Lao Li's wife decisively, give up 10 minutes school room, fought 8, 9 minutes school room.

This has also become a key step for Lao Li to buy a house successfully.

Housing agency is the key, mentality but also 'Buddha'

Lao Lee's experience twists and turns, but eventually 'got on the car' in 2017. Compared to the lucky Lao Li, Xiaoyu feel pitched by intermediaries time and time again, spent six months time has not bought the right House of.

The first time I saw Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu is using mobile phone noise testing software testing coffee shop.

'I'm sorry, looking for so long to develop a habit, I just want to see the house, wanted to test.' Every weekend to see 89 suites Xiaoyu apologized.

Speaking of intermediaries, Xiaoyu a belly complaint.As sellers often receive bids from multiple buyers, so how to bid to become an important part of whether or not to win the house.At this time, the intermediary needs to be buyers and sellers To communicate between buyers for a reasonable offer.

Xiaoyu two houses offer a weak disadvantage and failed to win the house finally won a bid on a house, did not want to second home buyers a letter impressed the homeowner, direct Get promoted to get the house.

'Agent did not tell me need to write a proposition essay to the landlord ah!' Xiaoyu grievances.

Different from the price of buying and selling houses in China, there is a one-shot deal. The United States also depends on homeowners' personal preferences for buying a house. In particular, it depends on whether the buyer can care for their house, manage their yard, integrate into the local community And contribute to the community.Community culture is also an important part of American culture.

And compared to Xiaoyu, Lao Li couple chose their intermediaries, not only because of her good reputation, more importantly, as an experienced intermediary, she knew that buyers and sellers on both sides of the mentality.

So, after each bid, if the top rankings, Lao Li couple will listen to the agency's proposal to write a loving and prophetic 'proposition essay letter to the homeowner. Mediation will guide them in the letter to be involved in the content, such as Their own character, the future repair of housing, the future will be the contribution to the community and so on.

And this is very important in the United States, since sellers often receive bids from multiple buyers, and sellers tend to be more concerned with the 'character' of buyers if the bidder's price does not go too far.

Among the buyers interviewed by Xiaotong, some mentioned that some retired professors at Stanford University even asked sellers to contact Stanford, either at school or at work, when they were selling houses. Stanford read a book still not come too late? But if the temptation to buy a house when the seller preferred Harvard graduate Xiaotian Qi loss?

In addition to the intermediary as a foreign factor, the biggest feeling for all successful homebuyers is a well-balanced mentality: Buying a house Unlike buying groceries, a house that he or she apparently believes is likely to be defeated at the last moment by buyers who pay in cash.

Xiaoyu and her husband, her husband in this half a year to buy a house, often insomnia. Do not understand why it should obviously be their own house was finally taken away by others? And her husband because buying a house is not smooth in the work also frequently Error, two people back home big eyes stare, people feel panic.

'I really do not know people toss the house, or toss the house!' Xiaoyu smile Road.

As far as I know, in Silicon Valley, there is even a long time to buy a house is not the last to actually break up the couple. Is the house more important than people?

For every weekend to see five or six houses of buyers, buying a house is a protracted war; rob the house is a psychological warfare.And 'Buddha' buyers are not over the corner, the shot when the shot style, though not in Silicon Valley The war wins, but odds are great.

In Silicon Valley, do not know how many home buyers already get on the car, like Lao Li couple, how many potential buyers waiting to get on the car like Xiaoyu.Projects on 2018 ready to board the small companion said:

Be prepared to calculate good money, choose a good intermediary area,

Good attitude to write a good letter, people will always be more important than the room.

I wish 2018 all the best under the sky to buy a house!
