The reasons why old houses in Shanghai can last more than a hundred years:
1. When old houses were built, the foundations were very thick.
2. The architectural style of the old bungalows is mainly European and American, and most of them are built of marble and masonry.
3. The quality of the bungalows is quite good and the maintenance of these bungalows is very good.
4. During the use of the bungalow, the structure of the house was not damaged. The bungalow has seen so many years of ups and downs and is still going strong.
Why is it so expensive? Shanghai old bungalows are the most classic residences in Shanghai. The value of old bungalows is not just in the bricks. Each building tells a legendary story about the days when we went to the beach. At the junction of Xuhui District and Luwan District in Shanghai, itthere are houses with red tiles and pink walls on several quiet roads, peaked roofs and oval steel windows through the garden fence, you can see a large number of lush green plants; including several imposing trees protruding from the top of the fence.
In the evening, the windows reflected soft light, and the gentle sound of the piano floated faintly. This is a garden house that represents the status and status of old Shanghai. “Villa life” in Shanghai is not only the dream of Shanghai citizens, but also the dream of some foreigners living in Shanghai. There are even fewer old houses for sale on the market, only around a hundred, and only around ten old houses can be resold immediately. Coupled with Shanghai's geographic location as an international metropolis, this has driven up prices of old houses in Shanghai. Who will buy an old house?
? There are four categories of investors in old houses: Category 1: Returnees, especially old overseas Chinese. After the leaves fall, I have strong feelings for the old house and hope to buy the old villa as a treasure. Category 2: Investors. Due to the scarcity of older homes, investors will make short-term real estate investments as soon as they see a buying opportunity, typically reselling within six months to make a profit. Category 3: Businesses. Old houses have a certain historical and cultural context and some companies are interested in buying old houses. The entire former villa was purchased as headquarters to reflect the corporate culture. However, most older homes are residential in nature, and because purchasing a home requires higher taxes and fees, there are relatively few casesof real transactions.
Category 4: Foreigners. Any international metropolis in China attracts more and more foreign people to work and live here, and their purchasing budget is limited to $10 million. In addition, some businessmen open Western restaurants, hoping to find old houses along the streets and decorate them into casual restaurants with exotic flavors.
