Chapter 1309: London Real Estate

“Boom!”

Andy, who had just walked out of the cabin, looked back and was holding up a little assistant with a black umbrella, and couldn't help but look up at the gloomy London sky, and the leaping rain was annoying, and the cold wind blew out the trench coat hunting.

Having entered London for a long ‘grey’ winter, the most luxurious is undoubtedly the bright sunshine.

“This fucking weather is disgusting! ”

Andy sat in the car and watched the rain dripping down the window, frowning in the gutter.

“London's autumn is brief, and it's supposed to be the early winter in England, with more rain and snow, but the forecast suggests rain stops.” The assistant took a phone number from the bag and turned it on, looking at text messages and e-mail explanations on the King's work phone.

“Boss, I'll be there in half an hour.” The assistant picked up his phone and dialed out, and when he was connected, he hung up after a brief explanation.

“Philly Moore Gardens is ready there. ”

Andy nodded and when he first came to London last September, he had his think tank use a named offshore company to find the right property in London. Although he didn't know much about the UK in previous life, after all, Wang 100 million pounds in London threw tens of millions of pounds to buy luxury homes. So he knew that after the financial crisis, the real estate market in London had been blown up with a super bubble.

Andy will never let go of a wealthy business, not to mention London's secret “advantage” - "tax haven”.

London sells countless mansions every year, but few registered owners, most of them in the name of companies, are registered in well-known tax-free areas. Many do not know that the largest “player” in the offshore system of the global duty-free zone is not Switzerland or the Cayman Islands, but the United Kingdom.

Under UK law, property holdings, particularly when financial gains are generated by transfer of ownership, are subject to various taxes, but offshore companies often hold property tax exemptions.

In this way, estate taxes can be avoided by this means. Not only can you avoid paying British taxes, but you also have the opportunity to avoid pursuit from your own tax or judicial authorities.

Concealed in the name of offshore companies, Chen Kuang is a public secret in the London luxury market. Housing prices are repeatedly raised because of concerns about no taxes being paid. When most real estate markets are still sluggish, it's no surprise that London is “hiking" over and over again.

Andy's specially established offshore company, which purchases property in London, now owns six luxury homes worth more than £20 million and also has a pre-university for girls in Kensington, London's famous wealthy neighborhood, for £60 million at the time for Big BOSS.

After 12 months of luxurious renovation, which began last October at a cost of £10 million, it is now a super mansion with 10 bedrooms, an indoor swimming pool, a gym, a sauna, a private cinema and a tightly guarded bombproof emergency shelter.

To be honest, at the beginning, Andy learned through the briefing that his men had bought themselves a beautiful, blue-topped white-walled school building, just a little surprised, but it didn't mean anything, because he wanted to cover it up and sell it at a high price.

But in February of this year, when he got a call from one of his men and Elena, wife of Pinchuk, Ukraine's second richest man, offered £80 million to buy the renovating Philly Moore Garden mansion, Andy realized the crazy increase in London's house prices.

After seeing the decoration plot, he didn't even hesitate to reject the offer. After all, he also needed a real foothold in London, a Victorian Filimore Garden that he undoubtedly sees.

Andy tried everything to avoid taxes in the United States, let alone pay taxes to the British. His branch on London Financial Street earned him a lot of pounds. If he went back to the United States, he would almost be robbed half by the United States government, unless he was crazy to do so. How could Andy miss it if the British government opened the door to tax avoidance?

Andy's motorcade quickly entered the Kensington Zone and soon arrived at its destination, surrounded by tall trees that were slightly yellow as winter arrived, a five-storey main building and a transverse, dark-blue roof with open arms and a white-walled super mansion appeared in front of him.

Andy walked into the house under the umbrella of a little assistant, greeted by four maids, magnificent entrance hall with extravagant finishes in three directions leading to three main rooms.

The warm tone of the decor is british and the living room has a stunning floating window with a clear view of the beautiful bay. The living room leads to an official dining room and garden with a huge south-facing window, full of natural light.

“Sir, the roof is a viewing platform, but today's weather is terrible... ”

Andy stood in front of a glass sliding door, looking at a spacious viewing platform, and he nodded with a smile when he heard the maid, walking down a spiral staircase, a large pool in the basement, a spa, a sauna full of everything, a gym, a private theater, a temperature-controlled wine vault, and storing about 1,000 bottles of vintage wine.

Around the corner, Andy can be very satisfied with the school's converted mansion, although there are some gaps compared to his Leith's flower, but this does not prevent Andy from being satisfied with the mansion. After all, the mansion is located in the heart of London, closing the door to a private courtyard, pushing the door open to a thriving city, two steps to the top mall, the grand theatre and various bars, this "urban estate” is very appealing to many people.

In the real estate industry, there is a saying that the three main significance of property is "location! Position! Position!” And London's “location” on the world map has become an unparalleled “golden spot” for many.

Andy's mansion is located on Kensington Street, nicknamed the ”Royal Neighborhood," so the mansion has been constantly upgrading since the moment it was bought.

The four maids in the mansion were all assigned by Andy a long time ago by his housekeeper, George Jr., and while Kensington could find more professionally trained maids, in terms of trust, Andy had more faith in his own people sent by George Jr. After all, they were constantly indoctrinated with rules against xing when they were first trained, unlike the Mass Edition trained by the British School of Housekeepers, which, although professional, was too professional, and even with confidentiality agreements, inevitably ran into people who didn't follow the rules.
