How much monthly salary is required to buy a house in Shenzhen china before the age of 30?

As the ancients said, a man should be able to establish himself at the age of 30. I am quite curious about one thing:

In Shenzhen, what kind of existence are those who buy a house and get married before the age of 30?

With curiosity, I went to ask them, wanting to hear why these “elites” in Shenzhen chose to buy a house so early and enter the “grave of marriage”…

01

“Really? Can’t you save hundreds of thousands a year?”

At the beginning of the chat, 29-year-old Xiaoman gave me a critical hit. She came to Shenzhen after graduating from college and stayed in Shenzhen for 6 years. Her goal was only one – to buy a house in Shenzhen.

Save money, manage finances, spend less, and repeat this cycle.

Oh, by the way, the house she bought is in Pingshan, with a down payment of 360,000 yuan, 35 square meters, and spare money for decoration. Her husband paid for the decoration, and together with the newly born Dabao, the family is happy and complete.

02

“Everyone says I am a second-generation rich, but I am actually a second-generation poor.”

Aliang, who just settled his 44-square-meter new home in Songgang, has a loan of 6,000 yuan per month, which he calls “saving money in the future bank.”

He works in the Science and Technology Park, and he also scraped together the down payment. Together with his girlfriend, he took out four wallets from both families.

“You will get married only if you have a house, and it will never change.” Aliang told me.

03

Daxiong, whose parents are divorced and whose father has passed away, has no one to rely on, in his words.

He only achieved marriage and childbirth, bought and sold cars, and failed to buy a house. He has no property rights. He doesn’t know if he was cheated, and he hasn’t paid for the house yet.

04

As a programmer, Eric is exactly 30 years old this year.

After graduating from university in 2013, I came to Shenzhen. In 2018, I bought a house in Shenzhen with a down payment of 400,000 yuan. In addition to getting married and buying a car, I spent nearly 600,000 yuan in total. I earned all this by writing code and investing reliably. I can say that I have a wife, a car and a house at the age of 30.

05

“I was forced to buy a house by my parents.”

Apan, who said this, is 28 years old this year and the only child in the family. He has been in Shenzhen for more than seven years, has been dating his partner for three years, and got the marriage certificate last year.

After collecting 4 wallets in Longgang and settling the down payment, he, who earns 15k a month, has only 4,000 yuan left after paying off the monthly mortgage of 9,000 yuan. Daily food and drink costs 2,500 yuan, transportation costs 300 yuan, water, electricity, gas and 400 yuan…

Parents have empty wallets, and living with their son and daughter-in-law naturally has many contradictions.

“Next time, I still want to buy a house with my own power.”

06

Arron, who has worked in Shenzhen for 4 years, did not spend a penny from his family. He and his wife saved money to buy a house in Pingshan. The total price was 700,000 yuan, with a down payment of 30%. Later, the renovation and car purchase cost nearly 400,000 yuan.

“Although Pingshan is far away, it is also Shenzhen. Buying a house still requires the joint efforts of two people.”

07

A Fei, who has never been to college, came to Shenzhen to work hard 10 years ago. From a monthly salary of 1,800 yuan at the beginning to a monthly salary of 40k later, when I asked him what he did to soar to the sky…

He only replied me two words: keep it secret.

Now, he doesn’t have to consider the price of food. He bought a house in Luohu a few years ago.

A wife and children are warm and comfortable. It’s really good.

08

Before he got married, when Camby, 23, encountered any troubles at work, he would immediately say, “I quit!”

Now, at the age of 30, he has a family in Shenzhen. When he encounters something unpleasant, he will only think:

“I still have a lot of debts, and this little thing is nothing at all.”

09

“I tell you, it’s really different after buying a house!”

After buying a house, 28-year-old Leo no longer has to worry about the landlord raising the rent. He can decorate his own home as he pleases, which makes him deeply feel that only with a house can you have a life.

Terry, 30 years old this year, has been working for 7 years. His child was born not long ago, and he already has a house and a car in Shenzhen.

After graduating in 2013, he joined a state-owned enterprise. At that time, his annual salary was about 100,000 yuan. With his extraordinary ability to save money, he saved more than 100,000 yuan a few years later. Later, he switched to the financial industry and hit a good opportunity with an annual salary of 400,000 yuan.

I bought a house in early 2019, 70 square meters, with a total price of about 3 million yuan. I paid 30% of the down payment, but I still needed tens of thousands of yuan, so I had to borrow from my parents.

Fortunately, my wife is also a career-oriented woman. The couple works together, and the work is not tiring. The life of small happiness is enviable.

Starting a family in Shenzhen is undoubtedly the ultimate dream of many people who come to Shenzhen.

In addition to the endless pork trotter rice, Shenzhen has unlimited possibilities.

And those who can buy a house and get married in Shenzhen around the age of 30 have experienced the ups and downs of life.

I believe that everyone who works hard in Shenzhen will be one step closer to their dreams.
