Chapter 509 – Do You Want to Go Home? (2)

Han Min-ah seemed to be having a rather serious conversation on the other end of the phone.

As she rushed out of her semi-basement villa, we followed her and arrived in front of a real estate estate.

Han Min-ah, who entered the real estate building with a somewhat impatient expression, seemed to be talking about various things with the real estate agent.

After chasing her after her, I and her two sisters quietly waited for her to come out outside her property.

She prayed in her heart that he would return with good news instead of the sinister images that had already begun to take shape in her mind.

-Tiriring.

“…”

Soon the real estate door opens and Han Min-ah walks out.

There was a gloomy feeling on her face that I could tell without even asking.

From her bitter, uncharacteristic face, I could tell that the story had gone badly.

While the gazes of me, Han Jin-ah, and Han Seon-ah were focused, Han Min-ah’s mouth opened quietly.

“I’m sorry, guys…”

“…”

“…”

“Isa, it seems difficult to get in right now…” .”

… Ha.

Why on earth do these unfortunate events happen to only Han Min?

If you’ve been the head of the household in a semi-basement villa for over 5 years, shouldn’t you be happy now?

February is almost over, and I thought I could make a fresh start in a new house in time for March.

In the end, the only thing that came back to her was her real estate fraud, so naturally anger welled up in my heart.

“I should have checked more carefully before signing the contract… Sorry guys…”

“Oh, no, sister! Me, I don’t care! “Oh, I didn’t really like that semi-basement room in the first place!”

“If I can share the same space with my sisters for a little longer, that’s a different kind of joy. “We didn’t necessarily need a new home, right?”

“You can do it next time, Isaiah! Now that both Seona and I have started working, we just have to work harder than before!”

My younger siblings take after my older sister, Han Min-ah, and give me quite positive answers.

However, despite their answers, Han Min-ah’s expression did not improve at all.

The reason why Jin-ah and Sun-ah’s expressions did not relax despite their words to lighten the mood could be confirmed in her next answer.

“Sorry, guys… Now I can’t even go back to the villa I used to live in…”

“… Uh?”

“That part has already been sold with a sales contract, so she has to vacate it by tomorrow… In fact, her original price was barely even, including the sale of the semi-basement villa…”

“I see, that’s right…” .”

“Ha, Mr… If I had known this would happen, I should have definitely found a house first and sold it… So stupid…”

“Okay, it’s not your fault, eldest sister… ! “It’s the fault of the landlord she was originally supposed to move to!”

“Yes, yes, that’s right! Oh, there’s no need for you to apologize in the first place… Hmm…”

Jin-ah tries to say something comforting, but she can’t hold back her emotions and starts crying.

Starting with her reaction, she began pouring out feelings of blessing for Minah and Suna one by one.

I felt sorry for the three sisters, and at the same time, I agonized over the realistic problems they would face right now.

Things like the compensation process to get money back for being scammed in a multiple sales contract, or where the three sisters should stay from tonight.

There are many problems we face that are too natural to turn a blind eye just because we are having a hard time.

“Let’s report it first. Usually, things like this are much easier to do with a lawyer, so it’s better to go to Yeouido or Seocho and get advice from a lawyer first…”

“… Hmm, ah, no… “I won’t report it.”

“Hey, no matter how shocking it is to have been scammed, it’s true in such a desperate way… !”

“Well, that’s not it… ! Oh, that’s because I haven’t deposited money yet… I just received my deposit back from the real estate agent…”

“… “Really?”

“Well, I think we need to be cautious until the end… I postponed the deposit as much as possible… Instead of depositing the down payment directly, I decided to leave it to the real estate agent… There’s nothing we can do about fees and things like that, but considering that I almost lost over 200 million won, this alone…”

… Should we call this a good thing among bad luck?

Still, it was truly fortunate that even in this situation, due to careful consideration, it did not result in any major losses.

I could tell how much she had suffered alone, and how determined she had been when she announced that she would sell her semi-basement villa and move to a new house. I guess she had been watching the whole process by her side.

Even if I couldn’t find a house, I somehow kept the money, so it’s quite possible to get back on my feet.

However, considering her future actions even if there was no immediate financial loss, the fact that she could not move was not the only problem.

The three sisters’ accommodation and food issues that need to be resolved immediately, as well as the contract issue of urgently needing to find a new home, will once again be holding Han Min-ah back.

“So, what are you going to do next?”

“… I need to find another house as soon as possible. I don’t know if there are any available for sale right now. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll probably have to find a villa again and move in…”

“…”

“Ah, but I won’t go to a single room in a semi-basement! Even if you urgently find it with the money you saved, it won’t be that much…”

Of course. If they said they were moving and were going to crawl into a similar place again, I was thinking of stopping them by even adding money.

After all the hardships she went through, I didn’t think I could tolerate it ending up being the same.

“They said I had to vacate the villa I originally lived in by tomorrow. “Then where are you and your younger siblings going to sleep today?”

“… Well, well…”

“…”

“The kids can get a double room at a motel or inn, and I can move around a bit and sleep in the company conference room… It will work out somehow… ?”

Han Mina’s plan seems infinitely daunting just by hearing it.

Given the situation, there was no way a proper agenda could come out of my mouth.

Now that the original plan to move out of the semi-basement villa and into a new house has been ruined, it won’t be easy to come up with a new plan on the spot.

Since it was a hastily presented agenda, it was naturally difficult to call it a good solution.

It won’t cost you anything to live in a house you’ve already purchased, but lodging in motels and looking for real estate will of course cost you money.

As the period got longer, there was a possibility that a considerable amount of money could be spent just by sleeping.

If the period were to become unexpectedly long, the loss in that area could not be ignored.

‘Even if it is only 40,000 to 50,000 won per night, the amount will naturally increase as it accumulates.’

No matter how quickly you succeed in finding another house, a real estate contract is not something that can be completed overnight.

In any case, there was a high possibility that more than a few hundred dollars would be spent on motel fees alone.

The amount may seem small compared to the price of the house, but that does not mean it is a small amount of money.

This is especially true for someone like Minah who has lived through hardships by saving every penny.

Moreover, if losses start to accumulate, you will become so anxious that you will not be able to find really good properties for sale, so there is a high possibility that you will just focus on looking for houses that you can move into quickly.

In other words, it means that although the hardships were worth the trouble and the money was spent, there is a high possibility that you will not be very satisfied with the place you moved to.

Of course, that only happens when things don’t work out, and it’s not entirely possible that things will work out somehow and be solved surprisingly easily.

… Somehow, my intuition was telling me.

The consequences that will arise if Han Min-ah, who seems to be living with that misfortune, handles things in a hurry.

Even though I almost got scammed this time, I was able to minimize my financial loss thanks to careful and careful judgment.

This was only possible because we had the base of a semi-basement villa and had enough time to spend.

While Minah is probably worrying about her younger siblings’ lodging expenses every day, she will be moving around from place to place, such as her company’s conference room or sauna, without proper accommodation.

In that state of mind, she had no idea that he would be able to sign a proper contract.

‘At the very least, it would be nice if Mina could leisurely look for a place to move without worrying about time and money… Ah.’

The moment the same thought crossed my mind, a rather good idea crossed my mind.

Before I knew it, her mouth was already naturally suggesting a way to resolve the current situation to the three sisters.

“Seo, Seong Tae-kyung… I’m really sorry, but… Isn’t it possible for Seong Tae-kyung to take care of the furniture and things like this for a while? ? If I get it right now, I don’t have anywhere to put it…”

“… Instead of just leaving the furniture to me, let’s all just go to my house together.”

“Huh?”

“You and your younger siblings should just stay at my house until you find a new home. “Don’t just say you’ll sleep in the company’s conference room or move around because it’s a motel.”

“… What, what?!”

What does it mean to be a good friend?

In difficult times like these, we must help each other.
