The influencers in Century City are about to start their migration again.

Recently, two commercial flat-top floors in Century City have been delivered, namely T-ONE Chaobo and EIC.

In particular, the EIC's sense of delivery ceremony has exploded countless social platforms. After all, in any home delivery, you can see a Rolls-Royce special car picking up and taking over the owners. The house check-in gift is a 10-gram gold key a

However, what is more surprising than the housing receiving ceremony is the rent of these two large duplexes, which has reached a new high level.

How high is the rent exactly?

According to the owner of Chaobo, an annual rent of 500,000 to 600,000 yuan can be achieved for a 330㎡ property, and this price can be quickly rented out through intermediaries. Some leasing companies even stated that they would rent this property ty

I consulted a rental company for housing that I am familiar with, and Mr. Lao told me that for a unit like the 330-square-meter property at Chaobo, they can indeed offer an annual rent of around 600,000 yuan for a regular floor plan.

Taking into account the total price of Chaobo, the annual return rate can reach 4.5%, which is three times that of ordinary residential housing (the rental return rate of residential housing in Hangzhou is generally at 1.5%).

Moreover, with rent so high, it's surprising that there are no vacancies. Many clients with annual rent budgets of 550,000+ have already started to pay attention to Chaobo before it's even delivered.

The rent for EIC375㎡ is even higher. On a certain app, the rent for this type of property is uniformly priced at over 60,000 yuan per month, with some even quoting as high as 70,000 yuan per month for lower-floor units with fully furnished interior (

Lao Wu said they also rent EIC's 375 square meters at an annual rent of 650,000 yuan, but it is almost impossible to find a rental property.

Even without the advantage of an open river view, the monthly rent of Chaobo and EIC can still reach 50,000-60,000 yuan per month.

One important aspect is the convenience of the living facilities in these two large flat layers. For example, Chaobo's T-ONE MO has more than 70,000 square meters of commercial facilities, introducing brands such as Hengdian Fenteng Cinema, Chaoku Sp

With a floor area of 50,000 square meters, EIC LIVE is positioned as a financial Euro-American lifestyle that focuses more on catering than retail. The catering options include fine dining, omakase, innovative Beijing, Shanghai, and Cantonese cuisine

Who doesn't love a full life circle within walking distance?

Of course, the product quality of these two large flat layers is also excellent. With a considerable size and a surrounding layout, they provide a residential-like experience for commercial flat layers as well.

With an indoor ceiling height of over 3.5 meters, luxury stones of various colors, and N series products from Gaggenau, Contemporary, and Laufen, the large and open space with an area of over 300 square meters looks particularly solid and substantial

A real estate agent told me about these two properties with over 300㎡ of space. They can be renovated to look great for just 100,000 yuan. If it were an equivalent sized residential property, it would at least cost 300,000 to make it presentable.

The rent of large flat-layer houses in Century City has become the highest in Hangzhou. This is no longer a rare thing.

In addition to two new competitors of Chaobo and EIC, the rent of many large flat layers in Century City has been close to 100,000 yuan per month. For example, the 500㎡+ layouts in Guanyun Qiantang City, Guotai, and Wangting have monthly rentals of u

There is also a 700㎡+ apartment in Guanyun Qiantang City T2. It is reported that in the middle of this year, it was rented out at a heaven-defying price of 250,000 yuan per month.

Some netizens bluntly stated that the annual rent is equivalent to a common person's entire house price.

Those who can afford such high rent are mostly top-tier internet celebrities living in Hangzhou. A decent and convenient house not only improves living comfort but also serves as a tool for their production in some sense.

These spaces, embedded with Gaggenau kitchen appliances and Laufen sanitary fixtures, are not only the dignified backdrop in the head influencers' videos, but also the core production resources supporting their content creation.

Behind the high rental return rate surpassing common residential properties lies a precise match to high-end demand war.

If the supply side continues to increase, the present difficulty of finding a house may turn into tomorrow's anxiety of high vacancy rates.

After all, no matter how luxurious a big flat is, if it loses the value of production tools, no matter how high the rent bubble is, it will eventually face a rational burst moment in the crack of demand fault.
