                                    Question: My friend's father is the president of a real estate company. Can I use this relationship to buy a house at the internal employee price?
                                    Answer: 
 
 When considering obtaining an internal employee price to purchase a house through a friend's father (the boss of a real estate company), the following aspects need to be comprehensively evaluated to ensure that the decision is legal, consistent and does not harm interpersonal relationships.:

 ###**1. Feasibility analysis**
 1.  **Company policy verification**  
    -Internal employee prices are usually limited to employees and their immediate family members (spouses, children, parents). It is necessary to clarify whether the company allows “relatives and friends” to enjoy discounts. You can learn about the specific terms through a friend or his father. 
    -Some companies may require employees to have served for a certain number of years, or only for specific properties/listings. The scope and conditions of the listing need to be confirmed. 
 
 2.  **Authority and process**  
    -Even if a friend's father is an executive, it may be subject to internal approval (such as the board of directors, the finance department, or the compliance department), and it is not an individual decision. It is necessary to communicate in advance whether there are process obstacles.

 ###**2. Legal and compliance risks**
 1.  **Tax and contract issues**  
    -If the internal price is significantly lower than the market price, it may be recognized as “hidden income” by the tax department and subject to personal income tax (such as the difference in the price). You need to consult a tax professional. 
    -The purchase contract must clearly indicate the reason for the discount to avoid disputes due to “abnormally low prices” during future resale. 
 
 2.  **Conflict of interest and professional ethics**  
    -If the company is a listed company or a state-owned enterprise, it is necessary to be wary of violating the "Regulations on the Integrity of State-owned Enterprise Leaders" or the "Guidelines for the Governance of Listed Companies", which may constitute a conflict of interest. 
    -A friend's father needs to weigh career risks to avoid big losses due to small ones.

 ###**Three, practical operation recommendations**
 1.  **Direct communication and frank consultation**  
    -Entrust a friend to ask his father tactfully whether there are any internal preferential channels for compliance (such as employee recommendation discounts, group purchase activities for relatives and friends, etc.), rather than directly requesting “employee prices.” 
    -If feasible, it is recommended to confirm the preferential conditions (such as contract terms and additional restrictions) in writing and avoid verbal commitments. 
 
 2.  **Weighing benefits and costs**  
    -Calculate the actual savings: if the internal price is only 5%-10% lower than the market price, it may not be as cost-effective as normal negotiations or waiting for promotions. 
    -Pay attention to hidden costs: internal listings may have floor and orientation restrictions, or terms such as full payment and limited sales period may be required.

 ###**Fourth, alternative solutions**
 1.  **Open channels to strive for discounts**  
    -Negotiate discounts through the normal home purchase process, such as one-time payment, rebates from recommended customers, holiday promotions, etc. 
    - Pay attention to the publicly available preferential listings such as “work arrival” and “final clearance” launched by developers. 
 
 2.  **Other ways of using human resources**  
    -Give priority to obtaining high-quality listing information or eligibility for room selection, rather than direct price reduction. 
    - Request assistance in speeding up loan approval, property fee relief and other additional services.

 ###**5. Maintenance of interpersonal relationships**
 -**Avoid forcing**: If the other party expresses inconvenience, you should express understanding to avoid affecting the friendship due to the purchase of a house. 
 -**Express gratitude**: Regardless of the result, take the initiative to thank the other party for their intention to help, such as giving a small gift or inviting a guest to thank you.

 ###**Summary steps**
 1.  ** Preliminary understanding of the policy** → 2.  ** Assess risks and benefits** → 3.  ** Euphemistic communication request** → 4.  ** Compliance implementation clause ** → 5.  **Prepare an alternative plan**. 
 
 The final decision-making needs to balance legal compliance, actual interests and human relations. It is recommended to give priority to the purchase of houses through open channels, and then use private resources cautiously if necessary.
