“Jasp, you asked me to help you pay attention to the news about the house a few days ago. I heard something today.
“There’s a villa area in the city. It has been more than half a year since its opening, but the sales are very bleak. The developers can’t support it anymore, so they’re doing promotional activities.”
“The villa area in the city? Is it called Thornton Park?” Jasper asked suddenly.
“How do you know?” Wendy asked in surprise.
Of course, Jasper knew about it. In his previous life, the boss of the company he worked for was the owner of Thornton Park.
Thornton Park was indeed a villa area launched by local real estate developers in early 2000. It was mainly targeted at successful entrepreneurs and business owners, but the positioning was too high-end and advanced. As a result, the number of units sold in the two years after the opening did not even exceed 20%.
Later, the developer went bankrupt and the project was taken over by others. It did not take long for the reversal of fortune. Real estate prices across the country ushered in the first wave of the surge, and Thornton Park, which no one cared about or wanted even if it was given practically for free, became the most expensive residence in the city.
Before Jasper was reborn, although the units here were more than 20 years old, they were still not out of date. Real estate prices soared to a terrifying 267,000 per square feet and a villa was worth more than 50 million.
What about the housing prices in Thornton Park now?
800,000 was enough to buy a unit, furnishings included.
It was no different than picking up scraps.
“I’ve heard it before. After all, it’s the number one residence in the city,” Jasper said with a smile. He made an appointment with Wendy and headed straight out.
