01x04 - Episode 4

Post by bunniefuu »

PREVIOUSLY

I may have a buyer for the villa.

-When was the villa built?

-I'd have to look it up.

Embarrassing.

We're in a professional situation.

Where's the kitchen?

How immature and childish can you be?

Just speechless.

Hi. I just had the viewing with Sarah,

with her client.

It was very interesting, I must say.

I was so annoyed.

I just had to call Louisa

and tell her about it.

I find her difficult to work with.

It was also an interesting

goodbye with her just now.

Why? Did you get bitchy with each other?

Yes, it's interesting that she can't

really take criticism that well.

Okay, that happens a lot.

Definitely.

She encourages me,

since she thinks the same about Sarah.

She also finds her

I'm not surprised by how the meeting went.

I think they're both very alpha.

And there is no space for a person

to be subordinate.

And did the client notice

that there are tensions?

I don't think he noticed it, but

She interrupted and talked a lot.

I found that a bit disruptive.

I think the client always notices

when people don't get on.

When there are two women

who constantly b*tch at each other,

that's just not helpful.

I think that always

comes across as unprofessional.

If he is unsure,

it's probably better to act

as a team in front of him.

She's not a team player. She's a maverick.

Well, if he's really interested,

then I'll close the deal.

Otherwise

I'm curious to see if there will be

another viewing with the two of them.

Valeria was really pissed afterwards.

Not much else has to happen

for a real argument to break out.

Conclusion.

Today,

I'm at a viewing with Edwin

and we're looking

at a penthouse at Burj Khalifa.

SINCE 2008, BURJ KHALIFA HAS BEEN

THE TALLEST BUILDING IN THE WORLD.

PURCHASE PRICE

13.5 MILLION EUROS

LIVING AREA

418 SQM

This listing is so crazy.

The Burj Khalifa gives you an expanse

and view that you can't find

anywhere else in the world.

The tallest building in the world.

The owner has placed so much

emphasis on the smallest details.

There is marble everywhere

from different areas of the world.

All of the furniture

is from designer ranges.

The chandeliers were designed

for the apartment,

the leather on the walls,

the color concept and everything

just gives the property such a cool

and coherent appearance.

All combined with the prestige

of the building

the Burj Khalifa.

Just the b*mb.

Very nice.

103RD FLOOR

4 BEDROOMS, 1 STAFF ROOM,

You come in here, and it's just fantastic.

WINE CELLAR & BAR

+ PANORAMIC VIEWS

This is a very special day for me.

You don't get to do a viewing

at Burj Khalifa every day.

Very exciting.

Perfect. So nice, right?

We've chosen a good day today,

since we can see very far.

-Right.

-Hello.

-Hello, my friend.

-Very nice.

Markus is a good client of mine

and I've known him for nearly two years.

EDWIN

HIS FIRST PROPERTY AT BURJ KHALIFA

He's a very relaxed person.

Very funny,

a great social media entrepreneur.

And he simply likes unique things.

-I immediately feel at home.

-Right?

Very good.

-Yes.

-Welcome.

Thank you. Tell me all.

It's a unique property.

There's no other apartment

like it in the world.

-It really is very special.

-Nice.

It's 110% an Italian product.

-Okay.

-We have the best Italian furniture.

THE PENTHOUSE RENOVATION

TOOK 2 YEARS IN TOTAL.

We have marble in nearly every room,

and, a great detail, as you

can see, the wall is not straight.

It's meant to be in harmony

with the exterior walls,

which aren't straight either.

It creates this natural, relaxed mood.

300 SQM OF MARBLE WORTH

190,000 EURO - €630 / SQM

Marble, of course.

-Classic elegance.

-Awesome.

The oven is hidden behind this.

Very nice. Super quality.

Everything you touch feels nice.

The haptics are awesome.

Let's have a look at the master bathroom.

BATHROOM FILLED WITH NATURAL LIGH

AND GREAT PANORAMIC VIEWS.

The bathtub directly

in front of this shower,

with the skyline in the background,

that was just so cool. Really cool.

And it's demonstrated nicely once again.

The expanse in the shower,

yes, the open space.

And then the homely feel

and the coziness in the bathtub.

The tub is a bit small.

No offense.

You have to cozy up

when there's two of you.

Here we have camouflage marble from Iran.

Here's another cool feature.

If you're putting on an event

and you only want the guests

to use the living room

then you can swing out these two walls,

this one and that one over there.

Awesome.

-That's a cool idea.

-Nice, right?

The wow factor

with the penthouse was just

SARAH

A FAN OF INTERIOR DESIGN

that it kept on opening up.

You come in, the two doors

that swing closed open up,

and you discover

the apartment as you come in.

It was so nice to show that to Markus

but as agents, it's also exciting for us.

I knew that you were looking

for something very special, unique.

This place is on the market

for 54 million dirham.

Roughly 13.5 million euros.

No, well You did everything right.

-Very nice.

-We're pleased to hear that.

-How it should be.

-Great.

When I get this reaction

or feedback during a viewing,

that it's exactly what he's looking for,

then that's great, of course.

Sarah did her part. I did my part.

And that's why everything

was the way we wanted it.

-Bye.

-Bye.

Valeria's big party is tomorrow.

The most important thing is what you wear.

That's why we invited Maria and Johanna.

-Hello.

-Hello.

-How are you?

-Come on in. Nice to see you.

Both are very important

VALERIA

EXCITED ABOUT HER PARTY TOMORROW

and good friends.

It will be such an enjoyable morning.

How about a prosecco?

JOHANNA AND MARIA

VALERIA'S GIRLFRIENDS

-How were the past few days?

-What did you do?

Valeria has a new favorite girlfriend.

Is that right?

We had that team building event.

I mentioned it briefly before.

Sarah showed up and said she had a buyer.

-Edwin's Sarah?

-Exactly.

Sarah who's on a team with Edwin.

Then we went to the villa the next day

and she kept on talking at the guy,

kept interrupting him.

She didn't let him finish a sentence.

It was so awkward.

She kept on mentioning other properties.

"Yes, I have an option there.

I'll show you that one later."

And she confused the client?

-You really have to keep the focus.

-You can't do that.

You wouldn't say during a date

that there are other women out there.

No.

I called Firas to discuss

the situation with the viewing

in Nicole's villa.

Simply because

SARAH

WANTS TO SET THINGS STRAIGH

I was really speechless and shocked

at how that went.

Where's the kitchen?

Where can I envision that?

Unfortunately, I don't know.

-How big was the property?

-I'll give you the brochure.

Giving the client a brochure

and saying, "check it out yourself."

That's a no-go.

I know that Firas, in this case

SARAH

VALUES CEO FIRAS'S OPINION

is number one for me,

since he can tell me exactly

how to salvage the situation.

Ultimately, Firas is the last person

who wants to lose a client like Nicole.

Firas was just shocked.

If there is one thing

that Firas doesn't like,

it's when you are not 100% prepared.

What I take away

from this conversation is

SARAH - WANTS TO CLOSE

THE DEAL WITH MARVIN

that for the success of myself,

my team and ultimately fäm,

I must take action.

Don't sit back. Jump in.

-Cheers, again.

-Cheers.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow.

-I'm hosting a small party.

-Awesome.

-On a sporty, cool yacht.

-Okay.

It's a get-together of good friends

and some investors.

It will be a bit like a social network

in Val-style.

-Are you in?

-Awesome.

Will Sarah also be

at your boat party tomorrow?

No.

She's not invited?

I think somebody would end up

falling overboard.

Sarah behaved very unprofessionally,

and this is a private party.

So I can't see why she should be invited.

Who else is coming tomorrow?

I met an haute couture designer,

the youngest in the world.

He designed for Lady Gaga.

And he will dress Valeria.

This means we have to look top.

My outfit is ready. How about you?

We haven't finally decided yet.

-Maybe you can help us?

-Yes, with pleasure.

Valeria places huge importance

on a grand entrance.

You don't just rent a yacht

and then look plain.

-So cute.

-Yes.

-Really cute.

-You're like, "Oh no, it's cute!"

I'm not actually so cute anymore.

-It's also elegant.

-True.

Very sexy, love it.

-Already my favorite.

-Really?

It's perfect for a yacht.

I think that's the winner so far.

-Yes.

-Really suits you.

In the end,

one outfit stood out.

Also cool.

Okay, that's very sexy.

I don't know where people are supposed

to look at the yacht party.

Definitely not at the island.

I took Marcus down again.

Yes. And?

-Was good, right?

-He was very happy.

He really liked it, as expected.

I hope we can toast

to this viewing with an offer.

I wanted to address something else.

Are you going

to Valeria's yacht party on Friday?

I don't know anything about a yacht party.

-She didn't invite you?

-No, she didn't.

Okay.

What do you think?

-Are you going?

-I'm not invited.

Well, I am Well, no.

Yes.

I would just take you.

I mean we're a team.

How can I not mention an event

EDWIN - SEES NO ISSUES

BETWEEN SARAH AND VALERIA

organized by our colleagues to Sarah?

If she were invited to something

that concerned both of us,

I would expect her to tell me about it.

I mean, if she has

other agents there, and buyers,

I'm happy to be there.

I'll hide behind you.

We just show up together.

Okay?

I think drinks will fly.

-Thank you.

-Have I offered you some water?

-I'm not a water fan.

-Me neither.

Okay. Unknown number.

SAYGIN YALÇIN

ENTREPRENEUR IN DUBAI

I got your number from a friend.

I immediately knew who it was.

It was a big call.

-Who?

-Saygin Yalçin.

I saw your video.

I didn't catch the name.

It was something important.

I saw on her face that he was

someone I ought to know.

Saygin Yalçin is a well-known entrepreneur

who's been in Dubai for quite a while.

He built up and sold large companies.

SAYGIN YALÇIN

CEO OF SELLANYCAR.COM

More than a million followers.

My pleasure. How can I help you?

I saw your video.

With my social media knowledge

in particular, I can help sellers

with their sales in the best way possible.

Now I want to buy something bigger.

I'm happy to get some inspiration.

Could you help me with the search?

When he said, "I saw your video,"

I immediately switched from private

to business mode.

How many bedrooms are you looking for?

-At least five or four bedrooms.

-Okay.

And what's your budget approximately?

Budget, limit I don't have one.

"Budget is no problem"

is of course the best sentence

you can hear as a realtor.

Can I maybe send you some options?

I already have one or two things in mind

that you might like.

Yes. Sure.

Thanks a lot for your call.

I hope we'll find

a great property for you.

-Okay. See you then.

-See you then. Thanks. Bye.

It's crazy that he's calling you

because of the video.

I don't even know

what's happening right now.

-I'm happy. I'm proud of you.

-Thanks.

Precisely because it's Saygin Yalçin,

it's a chance I have to act on.

This can change everything.

I'm 100% excited and 90% stressed.

I'm meeting Nicole today,

the owner of the villa in Frond H.

We're meeting because

I want to talk to her about the viewing.

I don't think

SARAH

DOESN'T WANT TO LOSE THE DEAL

she'll hear the truth

about the viewing from Valeria.

-Where are you from?

-Berlin.

I've been in Dubai

for three and a half years.

-Okay. Awesome.

-Exactly.

Where are you from?

I really don't know

what was up with the small talk.

That's not what the owner hired you for.

Valeria doesn't know

SARAH

THE PALM IS HER PATCH

that I'm meeting Nicole.

But she doesn't know

anything about my life.

So that's nothing new.

Nicole is an important person.

Nicole is someone

who has built up several very

SARAH - NEVER SOLD

A VILLA FOR 60 MILLION EUROS

successful companies.

Certainly someone

with very high standards.

I definitely have the necessary respect.

It's not a small property.

And the realtor has a responsibility

to bring the best possible performance.

We have to act quickly

to salvage the situation.

-After you.

-Thank you.

Today, I'm meeting Patrick.

I've known him for six years.

I booked a lounge for us.

This way we can speak more relaxed.

Patrick is only 32 years old.

PATRICK

EDWIN'S FRIEND, BUSINESS PARTNER

In four years,

he's built a very successful

construction company in Germany.

Today, I want him to listen to my idea

for a joint business.

-Have you ever been here?

-No.

The first time. Awesome.

I've seen it on Instagram, but

How well do you play?

-Minigolf, yes?

-Yes.

-But not yet real golf.

-Okay.

-Understood everything?

-We'll manage.

Playing golf is cool,

but I can't play golf.

EDWIN - HAS REGULAR

MEETINGS WITH HIS CLIENTS

-You hit the air.

-Yes.

That was good.

Nice.

Hitting the air.

-I'm still with fäm, as you know.

-Yes.

It's just that I believe that

there are also other things,

as you know.

-You've been self-employed for 10 years.

-Yes.

I'd like to suggest that we join forces.

That we take your expertise from Germany

and my contacts and the experience

I've gained here in the market,

and we combine them.

And then actually

make it a success here, right?

And offer renovations

and German construction quality.

I think it's about time.

Dubai is simply on fire right now.

EDWIN

WANTS TO MAKE HIS CAREER IN DUBAI

So many people come to Dubai.

So many

new things are being built

and also renovated.

But the quality is lacking.

And this is exactly

the right time for us to attack.

That's why we have to do business.

Look. Our market would be over there.

The Marina.

Many apartments will be coming

on the market in the next few years

that are in need of renovation.

-A huge opportunity.

-Definitely.

So we have to get into gear.

You have the know-how as a realtor.

You know the good locations.

We have the know-how in construction.

-This can only be good.

-Exactly.

But I also know

that at some point it will no longer

be possible for me to split my time.

I haven't discussed this with Sarah, yet.

We're a team.

But at some point I'll have to tell her.

I really value Sarah as a colleague.

But I know that at some point

the time comes

to move on and develop.

And then I just want to focus on myself.

You have to be a little selfish at times.

That's how it is.

Oh, my God.

It was a load off my mind

SARAH

ALWAYS STRIVES FOR PERFECTION

because I didn't know

how the talk would go.

The villa is too big for there

not to be further consequences.

The fact that I have the listing now

and Valeria had it first,

there definitely will be

discussions with Firas.

It's okay. I know the facts.

SARAH

HAS WORKED AT FÄM FOR 2 YEARS

I know what happened

and that's how I'm going to tell it.

I'm excited. The big day has come.

I booked a yacht almost 40-meters long.

Very sporty, very chic

with a Jacuzzi on the sun deck.

We have a DJ.

I've got drinks, c*ck.

It's hot. 29 degrees Celsius.

Only the best for my guests.

Thank you, Universe.

The guest list was absolutely top notch.

RENTAL PRICE 35 METER YACH

3,800 EUROS / HOUR

The yacht was beautiful.

Valeria came up with something great.

I decided

that I wanted to arrive separately.

And I'll have a grand entrance.

I'm looking forward to that.

I already know a few of her friends.

I can see Edwin.

I look further.

And then I see Sarah.

-Hi. How are you?

-Hello.

What are you doing here?

Who invited you?

How did you know about this?

How dare you come here?

If I'd seen her at the entrance,

I would have intercepted her.

I don't care much about Louisa, so

She should clarify this with Edwin.

He brought me along.

-Are you going?

-I'm not invited.

Well, I am Well, no.

I would just take you.

I mean we're a team.

-Edwin invited me.

-Yes.

Louisa wants Valeria for herself.

It was already too much

that I was invited.

But then Sarah, too

-I thought, "Bro."

-That didn't go down well.

Apparently, she has a very good network.

I work a lot with Edwin.

Maybe we can get to know some people

and do more business.

I wouldn't want to be going out on a yacht

with my arch enemy.

You can explain this to Valeria.

Is that good for team building?

Why do you have a problem with it?

If my best friend is planning a party

and doesn't want someone there

I don't understand how you bring someone

with you without permission,

and especially not

if the plus one is Sarah.

It's not your party. So chill out.

-No plus one either, right?

-Correct.

-But we are colleagues.

-This is a private party.

Where was your best friend

at the entrance when the people arrived?

She doesn't have to be here first.

It's her party.

Yeah, okay. It's too late now.

What can she say? "You're not coming in."

I don't think so.

Edwin did it on purpose.

-Cheers.

-Cheers.

I was really stressed

because Valeria would ask

why she came along.

Sarah is somehow the stain on the party.

Valeria hasn't arrived yet.

So far the mood is very good.

The mood can definitely change.

Good. My mistake.

I don't have a glass.

You have to clear this with Valeria.

Where is she?

The best comes last.

I thought it would be nice

if my guests went out,

and then I could have a grand entrance.

It was such an awesome scene.

The sea, the sun

My guests were on board

and I waved to them.

Valeria's entrance was crazy.

Like a queen.

It's nice to be in the spotlight.

All eyes were on her.

Unnecessary.

Embarrassing.

I don't know what Valeria

needs to prove to herself and others,

but if she needs it

It's not for everyone.

But I think it's cool.

It was a nice vibe.

Hey. Wow, you are so tanned.

I arrived at exactly the right time.

I walked around looking

for the other guests.

Valeria won't like Sarah being there.

Now, I think we're on very thin ice.

Drama's coming.

-Hey, you look good.

-Hey, how are you?

Hi. How are you?

Many thanks for the invitation.

I'm doing very well. And you?

I'm well. Thanks.

I've brought a surprise.

Suddenly, Sarah is standing there.

Sarah. At my yacht party.

-Edwin invited me.

-Okay. That's nice.

Why did I hug her and be so nice?

Maybe I felt sorry for her.

VALERIA

HAS A STRONG TEMPERAMEN

But I found it so annoying to see her.

Valeria, thank you very

much for the invitation.

-Cheers.

-Cheers.

I'll just go

Bye.

I knew I would have to find out

how she got there.

I didn't like that at all.

-It's nice that you're here.

-It's nice that you're here.

It went completely wrong.

sh*t.

-Well?

-Well.

Look who decided to show up.

I was surprised you were so calm.

I was really stressed out.

Dude, what's that about?

Why does Edwin just bring her

without asking me?

He said it was a work event.

I said it wasn't.

Next time, I won't invite Edwin either.

-Absolutely.

-He knew exactly what he was doing.

I didn't expect him

to just bring Sarah along.

-She doesn't have to be here.

-No.

These are my friends, my contacts.

Cheers.

It's totally shameless for her to connect

with my best friends.

-Cheers.

-Cheers.

Cheers.

Flirting with my boys.

SARAH

HAS LIVED IN 6 COUNTRIES

I use every situation in my life

to get ahead and make contacts.

Just low level and embarrassing.

I should have kicked her off

the boat straight away.

But who knows what else will happen?

Shortly after that,

I saw a missed call on my cell phone.

Firas had called me.

I withdrew,

eager to hear what he had to say.

What is he trying to say?

Something else is coming.

-When was the villa built?

-It was built

I'd have to look it up.

I've got a brochure.

Where's the kitchen?

Where can I envision that?

Unfortunately, I don't know.

-Okay.

-Okay.

-Okay.

-So, we

Well, the kitchen would be

rather essential.

FIRAS

MANAGES MORE THAN 1,000 REALTORS

Some tough words.

He said I had completely failed.

FIRAS

EXPECTS COMPLETE PERFECTION

Great. Perfect.

Speechless.

This bnow has my listing.

I won't let this go.

This has consequences.

FIRAS

FOR HIM, THE CLIENT COMES FIRS

I feel totally betrayed.

How did that happen?

She must have gone behind my back.

FIRAS - HAS BEEN WORKING

IN REAL ESTATE FOR 17 YEARS

It's enough that I have to, sorry

see her face at my own party.

Then I find out that this fake snake

stole my listing.

That's absolutely not okay.

I've had enough.

The fact is

COMING UP

you betrayed me.

This is a 60 million euro villa,

and you sure as hell didn't even know

where the kitchen was!

Now you've crossed a line with Valeria.

You're keeping all your options open.

What the f? Be faithful! Be loyal!

When push comes to shove,

I don't give a sh*t about the team.

Now it's really getting started.
