She was about to go and call the concierge department when Hiroshi saw Marianne. He took the initiative to greet her and said, “Hello, Miss, may I ask if you’re interested to purchase the unit on the top floor?”
Marianne looked at the other party in surprise and some vigilance, and she frowned as she asked, “What’s the matter? Is there something wrong?”
Hiroshi quickly explained, “Miss, it’s like this. I also fancy the unit, and I actually want to buy it quite urgently. If you’re willing to let me have this unit, I’m willing to pay you a transfer fee of a million dollars!”
Not only Marianne but even Madam Marilyn and the sales executive at the side were dumbfounded as soon as Hiroshi said this.
The three of them had simply gone in to sign the booking fee agreement and pay the booking fee, and it had only taken them a few minutes, less than ten minutes in total.
Unexpectedly, another person had appeared at this moment, wanting to buy the same unit.
The other party’s purchase intention was so strong that he was willing to pay Marianne a transfer fee of a million dollars directly!
Madam Marilyn also felt a little fearful aside from being surprised.
She had also made the same mistake as the sales executive just now. She felt that there would basically be no changes in this matter and that everything would be fine without any risks even if Marianne were to view the unit and ensure that everything was okay before paying for it.
This is called empiricism.
Fortunately, Marianne had a cautious personality and was unwilling to take any risks, so she had taken the initiative to ask to make the booking fee first.
If that was not the case, she would have found out that the apartment unit was already sold when she returned after viewing the unit. It would be too late for regrets at the time.
Marianne frowned at Hiroshi before she said decisively, “Sir, I’m not prepared to let go of this apartment unit.”
As soon as Hiroshi heard this, he was instantly depressed, but he continued asking, “Miss, have you already decided to buy this apartment unit? What I mean is that if you still have even a one percent uncertainty, you might as well let me have this apartment unit first. You can then take the transfer fee of one million dollars to look at other properties. Perhaps you will come across one that you will like even better.”
Marianne shook her head resolutely. “I’m sorry, but I’ve already made a decision. I’ll come over to sign the contract later, so you can look at some other properties!”
