- We listed our home in Nanning the other day. Looking to find a bigger better place with a little less people. Wish us luck because I think we are going to need it. The rules for foreigners changed last month making it easier to buy in China so we though what could go wrong?

Hi Gweilo, I am really addicted to all your videos. I really appreciate your personalities of integrity, honest and frank. How's life at the new home?
I found your blog by chance and I enjoy your perspective of China from an older westerner's point of view.
I’m so glad you will get rid of the old one!
I think your observations and insights are unbiased because I have been in China many times.
I've been watching many of your videos which are interesting and offer me an insight of life in a Chinese city. You are fortunate for marrying a Chinese wife. Most of them will take care of their husbands and families for the rest of their life tirelessly. How do I know, because I have one?
Danny you are right about that.
a beer just spawn in front of you ? lucky guy.
those randomly placed signs ontop of the parking spaces makes my head explode
very interesting again. I have been in Nanning many times since my wife lives in that city.I completely agree with you, it's beautiful.And the weather in winter is much nicer than here in Canada, :-)
if she took a house loan and has to service a 20 year mortgage she cant kick you out for 20 years. good enough.
Thank you. Apart from the agent fees of 1.5%, how much are the stamp duties, government tax?
One thing important, Chinese wife will make you feel young!
Canada should learn from China.
Kirk, you will miss Huo Ju Road, especially the young College girls. LOL
I did not see anybody in the background of this video ( for over 8 minutes), looks like a nice place.
every body else doing nap ,may be
no worries gweilo, when u got a good heart, good karma will always be with you! congradulation to u and your family.
It's good to upgrade to a better house. Best of luck to your search for a new house.
Interesting topic! In the US, commissions on real estate are 6%, split between buying and selling realtors. If one realtor handles both sides, smart buyers will negotiate them down to 4 or 5%. There are also many websites cropping up with do it yourself sales, which don't work well in slow markets, but in hot markets, they compete well but sellers may misjudge market and underprice the unit or overprice because they don't have good comparable listing analysis. If an owner is desperate to sell, they might offer to pay the buyer's side of the commission.
hey nice series of vids! one thing different btw china and usa (don't know how it is in canada) is you can drink with open bottle/can in public is that right?
In China and in the US you can drink beer in the open but in Canada they have a law "Drinking in a place other than a dwelling" they give you a ticket for that. I have had first hand experience with that. Smile
Just wondering are you talking about 火炬路?
You thought it was fair full contract 5:18 at that time.
would you mind telling the price of buying and selling the properties ?
1.5 % for the buyer and 1.5% for the seller but if the property was owned for less than 5 years then there is an extra tax on the purchase. This is to slow down speculators for buying and selling quickly.
Please let me know how can you buy a new property as a non citizen of China both you and your wife in 2017.
Commission for the sale of houses in China varies. I saw a house in Buji, in Shenzhen sell for about one and a half million RMB, and the commission for the real estate agent was 25%. That is a common rate in Shenzhen, but as you know, everything in China is negotiable!
Why not go back to Saskatchewan, less people and cheap housing?
or frost bite
I am actually in Saskatoon and quite by change I found your vlog. China is totally differently from the day I left.
Ning Xu Maybe just be completely different from the place you left.
China is buying properties in Australia, pushing up the cost of properties making it very difficult for Australians to buy.
that's the governments strategy or problem what ever you want to call it.
Sun Shine trust me, house price booming always comes with bad result rather than create more job opportunities, for it pushes high the cost of living and business and erase more jobs than it creates...
@@aryasona8843 it is not things are expensive. Things are expensive is due to the devaluation of the your domestic currency. The more currency your govt print to spend, the lesser you buy. Increase money supply caused inflation to go up. Inflation is a hidden tax. Which means you need more currency to buy the same things. Your govt like any govt have collect from someone to spend, to provide perks and social security.
That is what the government is for. You Aussie don't have a government? Then you deserve it. Try to spread hate here shows you are just another worthless troll.
how come all ur vids are with single sound track
The newer ones are in stereo. It was an edit glitch I fixed about 1.5 months ago.
ing wen Tsai why so critical??
Tom Nelson wow critical thats a big word, alright since u so "sinsitive" let me explain to u, cus somehow i was listening his vid with ear plug and obviously it dont sound good with single sound track when wear ear plug, and obviously hes recording his vid by smart fone, then it suppose to be double sound track, so i was curious. why i ask ? maybe i was bored. how is this explaination sounds to u.
So, Wayfung dicided you need a new place to live. LOL.
