Chapter 1103 New Mode
Clam.
The door opened, and the woman in an apron looked at the young man in front of the door and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
"May I ask, is the apartment manager here?" the young man asked with a smile.
"I am." The woman rubbed her hands coldly on her apron, looking a little impatient.
"I saw advertisements on the street and were interested in the vacant apartment. Can I tell you in detail about its situation?"
"Two-bedroom, two-month deposit, quarterly rent payment, no pets are allowed."
"I want to know more in detail, the decoration style, does it contain furniture? There is still area..."
Bang.
Before he finished speaking, the door was closed, which made the young man standing at the door rub his nose awkwardly, shook his body and wondered whether he should leave.
"Who is it?"
"A poor man."
"oh!"
The voices of conversation in the room came clearly, and the young man shook his head helplessly and left.
"How is it?" Aiden asked curiously when he saw his younger brother walking out with a wry smile on his face.
"It's very unpleasant. I think I need to find a new apartment manager." It was Mason who came to the door before, and the two of them will officially take over the apartment.
Before this, the two wanted to test whether the apartment manager was responsible, but now it seems that the situation is terrible.
Ten minutes later, Tia, who was on the go on a recess, came and saw the cheap clothes the twins were wearing. She was curious but didn't say anything.
I went upstairs with Tia, and then came out with the manager's family carrying large and small bags. Their work ended here, and the free apartment as a welfare was naturally taken back. Now they need to find a new place to live by themselves.
"There are 3 apartments and nearly 100 houses in two blocks. It's too nervous to have only one manager to do it. Re-recruiting two managers, I think this is enough here."
The previous manager regarded this place as a home, with five people living in the two-bedroom room, herself, her husband, and three children.
Originally, this was nothing, and the other party should be grateful for a better job, but after seeing the other party's performance, the twins believed that the fortifications would be held publicly.
The two-bedroom house, 2 managers, is enough for them to use. The accommodation is provided to make them work better and not to enjoy it.
The work of an apartment manager involves a lot of things, urging tenants to pay rent, supervising the use of the apartment, repairing, and custodying public facilities, such as a laundry room, and solving the daily troubles of tenants.
The sewer pipes are blocked, the doors and windows are worn and cannot be used normally, small matters such as replacing light bulbs, arranging cleaning, etc., all need to be responsible for the manager.
Of course, ‘room service’ is provided according to the tenant’s requirements. High-end apartments basically provide such services, leaving the work to familiar people.
In this regard, managers usually get commissions. The more rooms they provide, the more commissions the person in charge of cleaning will give them, but the owners don’t care about this kind of business.
The cleaning staff’s information must be handed over to the owner for review. After approval, as long as the service does not cause any trouble and the tenants are satisfied.
The secretary's office was responsible for this work before, and neither they nor Li Zitao naturally looked down on small jobs like cleaning.
But the twins saw business opportunities from it, and the two decided to hire a cleaner themselves to provide "room service" for the apartment under their name.
They make profits in this area themselves, so the manager's salary will naturally be increased, but overall, it is still profitable, which can ensure that the personnel composition is simple and there will be no complicated situations.
After two days of visiting all the managers, the twins found out the current situation of all apartments.
Overall, the two were quite satisfied, so the next step was to talk to the manager about cleaning issues, and let them know who the new boss was.
For this reason, the two borrowed a car from their home, driven by Riley, and took them everywhere after school every day.
The twins were busy with the apartment for the whole week, but they also figured out the clues and officially took over the management rights of the apartment from the secretary's room.
"The first thing to solve is the empty house. We can start with the school." The wealth is not flowing to outsiders. Many people in the school rent houses, so the twins will naturally not let go of the customers in front of them.
"We can advertise at the school gate and provide students with certain discounts... It's better than being empty." Riley also joined the discussion.
The three of them spent lunch time discussing feasible solutions, prepare all the required information and leaflets in the evening, and start distributing them at school the next day.
The effect is pretty good, there are many people asking questions, and some faculty and staff also came to visit and were very moved by the discounts mentioned in it.
The salaries of faculty and staff are not high these days. If you want to buy a house, you can only go to Brooklyn, New Jersey or Queens. If you don’t mention safety issues, transportation will be a big trouble.
Therefore, most faculty and staff share a living room nearby, with 3 to 4 people per room, so there is no need to worry about safety. The environment is good and the distance is close, so you can afford it.
But now there are better choices, located in the east and west urban area, which naturally makes people more excited.
With the same or lower price, the living environment will become better, and no one will refuse such an opportunity.
Next is to arrange a house viewing day, which is the so-called "open day".
Due to the excessive apartments, the twins had to temporarily hire a small agency to take charge of the matter. This agency is also an acquaintance and was run by Riley's uncle.
"How about the feedback?" The opening hours were originally scheduled to end at 7 o'clock, but finally lasted until 8 o'clock, and there were endless people watching the house.
"37 people have an intention, and others said they need to come and see again. They are all shared." Leeding the registration form to Aiden, Lady looked at Aiden with bright eyes.
This is the young man who is in love with his niece. It is said that they are descendants of a large family in New York, but his sister Natasha has been reluctant to tell him the truth.
Lady was half-believing and half-doubted before, but judging from what happened today, the wealth they had alone made him secretly talk.
"It seems we need to keep working hard." There were only 37 intentions, and the twins were happy because of this, but they were not satisfied.
They hope to keep the apartments away, which is their near-term plan and goal, and the only business.
"We can continue to promote in schools, other schools." Riley is trying to catch a sheep and get it to death.
"Good idea." Aiden naturally would not object. This was her girlfriend's opinion. Even if something was wrong, she would let it go on track.
"Maybe...I can help." Radie said with a smile.
"Uncle Raddy, just say whatever you have!" Riley said with handmade yeast bread to him.
"What if I were to represent your apartment?" Radie said quickly: "I only need a small commission. When the apartment needs to be rented, it will be charged 3%."
3% is not a one-time charge, but every month, as long as the tenant introduced by the agent is still renewing the lease, he can continue to collect the rent.
But if you only live for one or two months, the agency can be said to have no money to make money.
There is another exception, such as a large intermediary company, who holds hundreds or thousands of apartments in their hands, and they have endless contracts every day.
This business model exists in Boston, where several large real estate companies control 50% of apartments, and they only cooperate with intermediary companies.
Leave the property to the agency at a certain price. Regardless of any expenses, you can make money by just being responsible for the apartment management, and the agency can also make a lot of money. This is exactly what Lady wants.
