Intermediaries are the same all over the world, however, the credit system in the United States has penetrated into all aspects of society, and the same is true for real estate agents, not only the assessment of holding a certificate is very strict, but also once there is fraud, deception, and even illegality, the revocation of the license is still a slight punishment, and may even lead to the collapse of the personal credit system like dominoes.

Therefore, there is basically no deception in the real estate agents here.

That's why real estate agents in the U.S. are also very interesting, as they all act as stars and create their own public image.

Placing one's own billboards in public will even be like an election, going deep into the masses, getting closer to each other, and establishing their own brand image; And with their own audience, women, families, bachelors, gays, blacks, etc., they will develop relevant marketing methods.

If you want to rent a house, the easiest way to do this is to pay attention to the entrance of each house or apartment building, and whenever there is a house for rent, there will be a sign with the agent's phone number on it. Anytime, anywhere, with a phone call, the intermediary will come and provide services in person.

Or choose a real estate agent you are familiar with, like, and recognized, and choose according to their recommendations.

There are five districts in New York, the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island. Among them, Manhattan is undoubtedly the core of the core, and even the center of the world.

On the island of Manhattan, it can be simply divided into Upper/Downtown, Middle/Down/Down, and different areas are inhabited by different people, and each area has a different style.

Surrounded by Central Park, a rare green space in New York, only the wealthy can afford to live in Upper Town, where land is at a premium. In addition, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the American Museum of Natural History, and other high-end cultural arts are also gathered here. This is undoubtedly the most representative affluent area of Manhattan.

Central/Downtown is centered around Times Square, where Broadway, Fifth Avenue, Grand Central Terminal, Empire State Building, and Rockefeller Center are all located. It's undoubtedly one of Manhattan's busiest districts, and it's so crowded with tourists that almost everyone who visits New York won't miss it.

Comparatively speaking, Downtown, known as the financial center, has a core area like Wall Street, but it is also the most vibrant area of Manhattan.

Home to artists, dreamy models, showbiz starlets, and gays, it's home to Washington Square, Greenwich Village, Soho, Little Italy, Chinatown, the Statue of Liberty, and it seems like half of Manhattan lives here. Of course, New York University, where Lu Li studied, is also in this area, as well as Columbia University, and the presence of students makes this area full of youth.

Because of its youth, because it is full of dreams and creativity, the style of the down/downtown area also represents the essence of New York: relaxed, free, ingenious, full of creativity and personality.

Renting an apartment in New York, Lu Li seriously considered whether to settle down in the upper/downtown; However, after thinking about it carefully, Lu Li still decided to choose an apartment in Greenwich Village, which he was more familiar with.

After all, he only comes to New York occasionally, and his activity area is probably mainly in the lower city/urban area.

Lu Li has lived in this area for four years, so he is naturally very familiar, and the last time Lu Huaijin and Song Lingyi came to New York, Lu Li served as a guide and led them to appreciate the different charms of the city. Even so, every time he slows down and looks at Greenwich Village again, Lu Li still has a new feeling.

New York in autumn does have a different kind of charm. The golden breeze passed through the cracks of the high-rise buildings, and gradually began to become fierce, cool and lofty, and the whole city suddenly became spacious and empty, with long light brown trench coats, camel-colored plaid scarves, and rich coffee aromas wafting in the sight, and the footsteps coming and going were less irritable and lazy in summer, and inadvertently began to become busy again.

Heading south along Princes Street, the retro buildings on both sides of the street have a strong European flavor. However, Lu Li had just returned from Europe, and he could still feel the difference. There is always a restless factor floating in the air of this city, lacking the precipitation of time and the historical heritage, but adding some prosperity and prosperity of the fast food era in the 21st century.

Involuntarily, my pace slowed down, and then I saw the retro building in front of me, the dark red walls looked historic, it was a small four-story building, although there are not many such buildings in Manhattan, but there are still some such buildings, especially in the vicinity of Chinatown.

The staggered brick walls spread from top to bottom as far as the eye could see, connecting with the gray ground on the side of the street, while on the side of the alley, a large patch of ivy obscured the entire wall, and only a few shadows could be seen through the green gaps. Beneath the ivy is a long red brick wall that separates the alley from the small building, which is clearly behind the red brick wall.

At the top of the brick wall is a black pitched roof, with conspicuous sloping grid windows on the wall in pairs above and below, and a large chimney without any smoke and fire, which is delicate and delicate. If you take two steps forward and look closely, you can see that there is a half-hidden classical portico on the façade, with rectangular clusters arranged under the portico and toothed ornaments on the eaves. From the standing angle, you can see a huge carved gate, and there is a semi-circular air window on the door beam, and the delicate pattern is mostly obscured by the ivy on the top, which is not very realistic.

The style of this small building embodies the characteristics of balance, symmetry and fine detailing, Lu Li has not studied the architectural style, and cannot say why, but it is indeed quite similar to many architectural styles in London, and it seems to be a Renaissance characteristic.

Here, there is less noise in the middle/urban area, and there is less restraint in the upper/urban area, quiet in the middle of the noisy, with a unique style, just a photo, Lu Li likes this neighborhood. Sure enough, he still has a special affection for Greenwich Village.

The phone started vibrating again, it was Fred's call, "I'm here on Princes Street, Twenty-third Street, come here." ”

Living in such a building, it seems that even the firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea in life have become different, and the unique petty bourgeois flavor does not need to be disguised at all, and it is naturally revealed.

Lowering his head, he could see the white sign at the door downstairs, and Lu Li dialed the other party's phone number according to the phone number on the sign. It only rang three times, and the other party picked up, and it was a woman's voice, "Good afternoon, this is Lydia Lauren, building a warm home for you, may I have anything to help you?" ”

"I'm on Princes Street, Twenty-Three Streets, and I see your business card here, and there's a house for rent here? I would like to ask, is this an apartment? Or is it an ensuite? Lu Li said quickly.

"Yes. I'm Lydia, may I ask ...... you? Lydia's voice was very friendly, even through the phone, it seemed that the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, Lu Li briefly introduced herself, "Fourteen, there is indeed a house for rent there, the third floor, it is a bachelor apartment, but although it is said to be a bachelor apartment, the entire floor is yours, about two thousand square feet, for a single nobleman, it is really suitable." ”

Lu Li couldn't help but smile dumbly, "What if I want to rent a house for my family?" ”

Just said two sentences, and the other party actually judged that he was a single man. Are all real estate agents so powerful?

"Then it's a pity that that house doesn't meet your needs, I can recommend other apartments to you, excuse me, how many children do you have?" Lydia's words were very smooth, with a faint smile in between, obviously a serious answer, but tainted with a hint of ridicule.

Lu Li chuckled, "My wife is still waiting for me somewhere in the world, and as for children, I hope to have two children, which is the most suitable." ”

Lydia could hear Lu Li's humor, and couldn't help but get back to the point, "Do you want to see the house now?" I'll be able to go right over. ”

"Of course, I'm downstairs right now." Lu Li is also neat.

"Give me fifteen minutes." Lydia hung up the phone.

Lydia was even faster than Fred, but in about ten minutes, a taxi stopped at the door, and the first to come down was a pair of slender legs in black stockings, and then the slender figure was seen.

a navy blue one-line skirt that is less than knee length; an ivory-white silk shirt loosely unbuttoned at the top; A head of golden-brown curly hair hangs lazily and casually on her shoulders, less of a strong woman's fierceness, and more of a little woman's charm/charm; The delicate body curves are not ostentatious, but only looming, and the mature charm of the early thirties makes people look sideways.

"Fourteen?" Lydia walked briskly, with a faint smile on her face, holding a briefcase in her left hand and extending her right hand in the distance.

Lu Li nodded, took her right hand, and began to introduce herself, "I'm Lydia. Are you younger than you sound on the phone, or is that my personal bias? I always don't have an accurate judgment of Asian faces. ”

Lu Li chuckled, but instead of responding positively, he retorted, "You sound more beautiful than you sound on the phone." Or am I personally biased against real estate agents? ”

Lydia laughed heartily in response, "No, you're right. "This can be regarded as accepting Lu Li's praise." How, are you ready now? We were able to go upstairs and have a look at the room. This room has only been vacant for a little over a week, and in this area, such a house is very sought-after. ”

Lu Li looked back and forth, Fred hadn't appeared yet, and when he was about to nod, Fred's voice slowly and leisurely walked around the corner, and Lu Li said with a smile, "My friend has arrived." ”
