According to the operator, this is actually a public welfare platform of a publishing house, which is responsible for the display of houses. After the buyers and sellers meet, the subsequent development has nothing to do with these platforms, so it will not eventually evolve into an intermediary company.
The blogger successfully sold the house through Weibo.
In real life, we usually choose the normal selling process, find an intermediary, see a house, sign a contract and so on. However, a Weibo account called "mutual selling house" does not take the usual path. He sells houses directly on the Internet without an intermediary. After that, this platform not only accumulated 60,000 fans, but also gathered a group of volunteer netizens from banks, housing management bureaus and tax bureaus to answer questions related to housing sales.
Weibo's account is run by a couple. Mr. Wang began to pay attention to the real estate market from 1998, studied houses in almost all districts of Shanghai, and often accompanied friends to see houses. I registered this Weibo because I wanted to hang a house for my parents last year. I chose to go through Weibo again and again, considering that putting my mobile phone number on the Internet would be blasted. Finally, I successfully found my next home in Weibo.
140 indicates the housing situation.
Most of the information about selling houses on the Internet will be somewhat exaggerated. However, in Weibo, the name, location, room type, area, floor, total price, housing characteristics, residential environment, commercial facilities, transportation, whether it is "full five" and whether there is a gift area must be written in 140. Not only will new houses be released every day, but sometimes there will be some "special activities". Netizens also commented on the room type, whether to educate real estate, transportation and even geomantic omen.
"Advisory Group" answers intractable diseases
As Weibo became more and more famous in buying houses for mutual assistance, many professionals in the industry began to answer questions from netizens, thus forming a spontaneous "advisory group" on the Internet.
Bloggers have repeatedly stressed that "mutual help selling houses" Weibo and WeChat are just housing publishing platforms, not real estate agents themselves. After netizens take a fancy to the houses on this platform, they can trust each other privately, and then follow up the house, sign a contract, and handle the loan. Both the buyer and the seller did it themselves. Whether to continue to choose an intermediary to help transfer or "hand in hand" is entirely up to the buyers and sellers to decide freely.
As a public platform, how can "mutual help selling houses" ensure the authenticity of housing?
In the Internet age, if you dare to cheat, I'll expose you online. Of course, bloggers will also check whether the contributor's Weibo is a real personal account when reviewing the property. At the same time, he will judge the pricing and property rights of the house according to his years of experience to ensure that the exposed house is reliable.
The power of mass supervision cannot be underestimated. Once the house is released, everyone can see it. Netizens who are familiar with the situation will comment below, and even tell many stories about houses that the landlords themselves don't know.
Experts said that there are legal risks in selling houses in this way.
Relevant people said that it is understandable for individuals to do public welfare platforms for real estate transactions, but if they are promoted, there are still great problems. Although this method reduces the transaction cost and increases the "transparency" of the transaction, it can effectively prevent the intermediary from using information asymmetry to unilaterally brag about the housing. But if you want to promote it, you must face the following problems.
1. Technical risk
The account security of private platform is a problem worthy of attention. Once there is a "hacker" or hacked, the information of many houses and landlords may be leaked or tampered with.
2. Security is worth considering.
Although the operator said that a platform to display knowledge would not interfere with the subsequent transactions, in the subsequent transactions, there were cases of one room selling more, fake houses and even landlords "running away with money". Does the platform need to bear legal responsibility?
Nowadays, the connection between real estate and the Internet is getting closer and closer. People can engage in real estate transactions by registering a Weibo or WeChat account at will. Therefore, there are still some risks in real estate transactions in this way.
