Chapter 49 Mansion and new office location
Integrated kitchen and dining area, small glass indoor garden, indoor swimming pool, outdoor swimming pool, tennis court, wine storage room, sauna room, gym, bowling alley, electronic entertainment room
Every European and American luxury house should have, and all-round living supporting facilities are available.
Outside the villa building, the villa is surrounded by layers of trees, and the privacy is very strong.
Outside the garden with sculptures and fountains, there is a sunny beach on the line of sea and sky.
On the other side of the sea is the outline of the United Nations Building.
It can only be seen roughly, but it is also a gimmick.
The geographical location is in Kings Point, New York. The English name of Kings Point is Kings Point, which should be directly translated as Kings Point.
This is a town in the New York metropolitan area, which belongs to Nassau County.
In the movie "The Great Gatsby", the prototype of Gatsby's manor is also in this area.
Such a mansion covers an area of 8.2 acres, which is converted into a luxury house of more than 33,000 square meters.
Offer $65 million.
want to buy it,
In addition to 65 million US dollars, there are corresponding taxes and fees.
For such a large house, the annual investment in repairs and maintenance is likely to exceed 500,000 US dollars.
And in such a large manor villa, if two masters live, there must be at least seven servants serving them.
1 to 2 cooks. Three or so housekeeping staff.
2 to 3 gardeners or cleaners.
This is not counting the resident bodyguards and security system.
If the pomp is a bit extravagant, then this number is more than double.
If you pay more attention to luxury, the number of service staff will be doubled.
For example, in some rich families, there are people who shine shoes for their owners, clean swimming pools, design itineraries, and even hire people to walk their dogs.
Serving such a family requires more than 100 professional servants.
The 7 to 8 people calculated by Abel can be said to be very economical.
But these 7 to 8 people need to pay more than 500,000 US dollars a year.
To maintain the operation of such a luxurious manor, an annual investment of at least one million dollars is required.
In addition to this, there is such a thing as property tax.
Yes, American properties, real estate, and real estate are all permanent property rights.
But, estate taxes are terrible.
However, even if inheritance tax is excluded, property tax must be paid every year.
Choose not to hand in the words.
Per New York State regulations.
From the beginning of the next fiscal year, if you have not paid after 5 fiscal years.
The property rights of the house will be transferred to the state government in preparation for the next auction.
Of course, any time before the official auction.
The original owner, as long as he pays all the money, can still get back the property rights.
But once the auction is officially held, the owner will permanently lose the property rights and cannot get it back.
The tax rate fluctuates according to the price of the property. Around 1% to 3%.
The price of real estate is assessed by a special department, and the annual tax is collected according to the assessed price.
The tax here in New York depends on the place. Floating from 1.2% to 3%.
Manhattan is tallest,
Long Island is fine.
1.5% annual real estate tax, 65 million multiplied by 0.015, about 970,000.
Even if you bought a house but didn't live in it, you still have to pay 970,000 in taxes every year.
That is to say, living in such a house.
The annual tax plus daily expenses starts at two million dollars.
It is really not affordable for ordinary rich people, at least billionaires must afford it.
Fortunately, Abel is such a billionaire, and he still likes this villa very much.
Compared to his home in Texas, he mainly pays attention to the functional farmer's manor.
Long Island side,
This kind of mansion mainly talks about luxury, comfortable living and beauty.
He still prefers this side.
The key is that it is not far from Manhattan, 20 miles in a straight line.
If you drive, it's only about 40 miles.
Rich people don't need to drive at all, they go directly by helicopter.
With this distance, for a helicopter, it doesn't take half an hour from takeoff to landing.
And most of the time, in fact, is mainly spent on take-off and landing.
It is completely possible to work in Manhattan and live in Long Island.
This is why Nassau County and Suffolk County on Long Island are deeply loved by rich New Yorkers.
After walking around for half an hour, Abel didn't finish all the shopping.
At most, he only went to a third of the place, but he has already decided to buy it.
"This is it." He said to David Jones, who was half a step behind him, with a respectful attitude:
"Let's talk to a buyer. The price is 60 million US dollars, and I'll buy it right away."
It's not that if someone quotes 65 million U.S. dollars, you must buy it for 65 million U.S. dollars.
This kind of luxury house can often be negotiated for a little bit.
It's just this location, this area, and this level of interior decoration.
$60 million should still be required, so Abel is not hard to bargain.
"No problem." David Jones smiled: "We will go to the homeowner to negotiate the price right away."
Although it is 65 million, American Express can earn more, with a little more commission.
But people take a long-term view.
Compared with this little profit, getting the favor of customers is more important.
If the customer has a good impression and becomes a loyal customer.
Long-term profits are more.
After seeing this mansion, Abel was not so interested in houses in other places.
He will buy it in the future, but that will be a later matter.
Next is the company's new site selection, American Express provides three options.
One is a five-story flat-roofed commercial building in the center of Huangdian Town, which is relatively close to this mansion.
The total floor area is about 10,000 square feet, and the construction area of the five-story building exceeds 30,000 square feet.
Underground parking lot, company square and other facilities are all available, within an hour's drive from Manhattan.
The second place is in Queens, just across the Hudson River from Manhattan.
Queens' economic aggregate ranks second in New York and presents a diversity of economic structures.
New York's busiest JFK International Airport and LaGuardia Airport are located in this area.
The part across the river from Manhattan is also the choice of many financial companies.
The third place is an outlying island located at the mouth of the Hudson River.
"The area of Manderson Island is sufficient, with more than 20,000 square feet. The buildings on the island are also ready-made."
David Jones said: "But there is no fresh water on the island, and electricity and the Internet have to go under the sea from Manhattan. Life is very inconvenient."
“The advantage is that it is very close to Manhattan, which is similar to Queens.”
"Then what else is there to choose? Just choose Queens." Abel shrugged.
Queens is the closest to this mansion, and is also close to Manhattan and two airports.
There are many other well-known corporate headquarters around, such as Long Island Bank, General Motors Headquarters, and more.
Not in Manhattan, and don't want to be far away from Wall Street.
Queens is the best choice.
