We understand it’s an extremely exciting time buying and building your first home, however, it does not constantly end up that like that for many first home buyers.
Too many times we see people wasting hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new house & land bundle due to the fact that they thought they were getting themselves a good deal.
However keep in mind, if it sounds too great to be true, it normally is!
See, some Companies ‘conceal’ their extra fees and don’t give you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they simply gave you, will most absolutely NOT be the total cost you need to pay.
Which’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being sold any home and land packages that are tens of thousands of dollars less expensive than other similar homes you‘ve taken a look at … there is most likely a great reason why.
The majority of the time it’s due to the fact that you’re losing out on extras that must actually come as standard (and they’ll be making you pay for them later on), or you’re going to be paying extra for ‘site expenses’ so the builder can make up their original price gap.
We hear a lot of horror stories from first home buyers that get a bit too excited and unfortunately didn’t do adequate due diligence before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was among them. He approached us after using his entire $25,000 deposit to lock in a block of land that no home builder wanted to develop on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a low-cost rate, however he ‘d really paid more than what it was worth and actually didn’t need to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, came to us after she ‘d already signed agreements with a big home builder and paid her deposit, only to later on be struck with an additional $35,000 in ‘unexpected’ expenses (for extras she thought were included in the initial quote) and had no thought of how she ‘d pay for them.
Thankfully, with Rahul, among our new home professionals had the ability to help him discover a home builder that specialised in building on smaller narrow blocks of land and wasn’t going to charge him a fortune to do so.
But, with Sara, it was too late. Beginning once again with another home builder and losing the deposit she ‘d previously paid wasn’t a choice. So she ended up having to finance the extra $35,000 from her parents and chalk it up to one of lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are simply some of the many first home buyers that discover themselves in a truly stressful circumstance due to the fact that they‘ve made a decision (and parted with a lot of cash) without having all the info and support from professionals, that they needed.
And we honestly don’t want that to occur to you!
