American Fortune Life

Chapter 1399: Simple and Crude

Andy had plans for Seattle's real estate layout, except for the local tech giants, like Microsoft, Amazon, Boeing, Starbucks, and Costco.

There will be more and more tech giants elsewhere in Seattle in the coming years. It's known as the Capital of Space, the Capital of Software, the Capital of Cloud Computing, and the Capital of E-commerce.

And Andy was also a du show in his past life to learn about AI and VR, AR and other fields here.

Strong economies and diversified industries underpin the high cost of real estate and the cool, livable climate of winter and summer. More importantly, as so many high-tech industries choose Atlantic as their headquarters or branches in Atlantic, many and many jobs will be created for Seattle to boost population growth.

In addition, high-tech companies have higher salaries, the relevant population is relatively more capable of purchasing real estate, a rich talent pool, and the population shows the trend of menstruation...

These factors are concentrated in one city, and you can imagine what the potential for higher house prices is!

Located in a 30-story building in the South Lake Seattle Alliance area, the Autolets Real Estate Trust Company.

Black slim high-end suit, blue silk tie, shiny Italian leather shoes, Andy in a power suit, a strong confident image of a hard man at work, crossed the lobby in many curiosity and amazement and walked into the elevator under the crowd of elite subordinates on the back of a crowd of bodyguards and suit leather shoes.

“Hello, Mr. Smith, I'm Matt Pommel, the manager of the Autres Realty Trust. It's a pleasure to meet you. This way--”

Andy smiled and shook his hand, then walked into a spacious and bright conference room, guided by all the trust company employees looking at his office hall curiously.

Both sides sat on the sides of the oval conference table with solid wood paint and cherry wood leather finishing. First, a brief chill introduced the important people on each side. After the coffee was served, Andy was not in a circle and opened the door to see the real deal.

“Mr. Pomo, I'm here mainly for the property used by the Volvo car dealership next to Parker's Market. ”

Matt Pomo smiled and said, "Sorry, Mr. Smith, we don't have plans to sell that store right now... ”

Andy was not offended to hear the other person refuse directly, but rather laughed directly: "Mr. Pomo, don't hesitate to refuse yet, I am very sincere... ”

Andy didn't even scream, “Martin! ”

When the voice dropped, the five bodyguards, who had stood on both sides of the door, walked to the door of the conference table in a somewhat puzzling gaze, and the five black suitcases were placed on the conference table.

“Bang-bang--”

Five sounds of unlocking, the suitcase was opened while turning to the crowd.

“Wow...”

Matt Pomo's eyes lit up slightly, with a slightly unexpected look on the faces of the Autres Real Estate Trust.

Andy smiled with a smile on his face and reached out and five bodyguards simultaneously poured a brand-new dollar into the suitcase and dumped it on the conference table, making it a dusty pile.

“It's five million dollars! ”

After Andy said it, he stopped saying it. He just casually took a small sip of coffee and drank it. From the moment he poured the money, he saw the expression and eyes of these people across the street, and Andy knew that he was negotiating with the Tian Dynasty Homeowners' trick of smashing the money, which had already worked.

Don't look at this simple and rude move, but you know a lot about human psychology. When people are faced with visible and touchable cash, sensory stimuli can cause excitement and stress.

The so-called non-sale, no bargaining... In the face of this pile of cash, the other party's psychological defense line will be broken, negotiations will be much easier and prices will be mentioned!

Blank teeth say it's never better than real dollars!

Matt Pomo looked at the dollar that was spreading on the table, looked at the people around him, frowned slightly, and then looked at Andy Smith, who was drinking coffee with a slight expression.

“Cough, Mr. Smith, that property of ours, it's more than five million dollars, that price...” He shook his head slightly, but eventually instinctively looked at the five million dollars on the table.

“Although commercial real estate prices in the United States continued to rise in 2006 and 2007, they began to plummet after this year, falling back to 2005 levels.

In October of this year alone, commercial real estate prices in the United States fell 2.2 per cent from September. Compared to the October 2007 peak, commercial real estate prices in the United States have declined by more than 16%, and the real estate bubble in the United States has collapsed, and this store, which I intend to expand my Starbucks business, is why I will buy it at this time.

According to Seattle's current ROI, CapRate, Net Cash Income, DSCR, etc., a combined assessment, five million is undoubtedly a very reasonable price, asking for prices over time and offering low prices, and there is no point in having these data.

I'm sincere, you agree. We'll finish the deal now!

“Well, Mr. Smith, could you hold on a moment? We need to ask other shareholders for their opinions, and to be honest, it's kind of sudden. ”

“No problem, go ahead. ”

Andy smiled and put down his coffee cup and made a gesture.

“I'm so sorry, please wait, we'll be right back.” Matt Pomo stood up sorry and nodded slightly with the two people around him, walking out the door of the conference room and walking past that pile of dollars, he didn't even notice a glance.

Andy couldn't help laughing, you know, in the United States, very few people, other than du traffickers, could offer large amounts of cash, even average middle-class families, and Americans were used to using cheques and credit cards, so I'm afraid even these people haven't seen so many dollars pushed together in a long time.

In fact, the deal, since the other party saw the cash and threw the so-called non-sale behind its head, Andy knew that it had almost succeeded, because the price he had given was really fair.

Parker's Market, after all, is not in Seattle's most prosperous South Lake Union area, the Capitol Mountains of young fashion neighborhoods, Queen Anne's District of the Standard Wealthy, but rather in an industrial zone with few homes.

The price of five million is also due to the size of the property, the financial crisis, the collapse of real estate in the United States, and how many years it will take to recover in the future. As a trust company specializing in real estate investment, you will definitely make smart choices.

Andy was holding a coffee cup, leaning comfortably against the back of the chair in the boss's chair and sipping the coffee in the cup with a slight smile at the corner of his mouth. After two years of adaptation, he had totally fallen in love with the coffee drink.

After a cup of coffee Andy had just put the cup down, the door to the conference room was pushed open and Matt Pomo returned with a smile on his face, returning to his seat.

“Well, Mr. Smith, we agree to this deal... ”

“Wise choice! It's a win-win. Have a good time!” Andy's handsome face was still smiling and his tone was full of confidence, and a copy should have looked like this, reaching out and holding Matt Pomo's hand.

Matt Pomo nodded and smiled, “Enjoy your cooperation! ”

There was a consensus that the lawyers on both sides quickly gathered to prepare for the contract and the information, and Andy's bodyguards went up and reopened the suitcase, quickly loaded a pile of dollars back into the suitcase, and followed the Oteles Realty Trust financiers outside to examine the money.

Matt Pomo accompanied Andy in a hilarious chat, and half an hour later, both sides signed a real estate transfer contract in the presence of a lawyer, and Volvo car dealers rushed in, some of them forced to re-sign a lease with the new landlord.

On the verge of leaving, Andy said, "Next year the rent is going up!” almost choked to death...

Howard Schultz, who had been rejected twice by Matt Pomo, was surprised to learn that the young chairman had bought the ‘non-sale' for five million dollars in cash in just an hour and a half, and laughed.

Simple and rough, but remarkable, smashing each other with cash!
