We understand it’s a very amazing time buying and building your very first house, however, it doesn’t always end up that way for lots of first time house buyers.
A lot of times we see people wasting hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new house & land bundle since they thought they were getting themselves a good deal.
But remember, if it sounds too good to be real, it typically is!
See, some builders ‘hide’ their additional fees and don’t offer you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they simply gave you, will most absolutely NOT be the total amount you have to pay.
And that’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being offered any house and land packages that are tens of thousands of dollars cheaper than other similar homes you‘ve taken a look at … there is probably a good reason why.
The majority of the time it’s since you’re losing out on inclusions that should really come as standard (and they’ll be making you pay for them later), or you’re going to be paying additional for ‘site costs’ so the home builder can catch up their original price shortfall.
We hear a lot of scary stories from very first house buyers that get a little bit too fired up and regrettably didn’t do adequate due diligence before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was one of them. He approached us after using his entire $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no home builder wished to build on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a low-cost cost, but he ‘d actually paid more than what it was valued at and truly didn’t need to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, regrettably, came to us after she ‘d already signed agreements with a well known home builder and paid her deposit, just to later be hit with an additional $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ costs (for items she thought were included in the original quote) and had no thought of how she ‘d cover the costs.
Fortunately, with Rahul, one of our new house land professionals were able to assist him discover a home builder that specialised in building on smaller sized narrow blocks of land and wasn’t going to charge him a fortune to do so.
But, with Sara, it was far too late. Starting again with another home builder and losing the deposit she ‘d already paid wasn’t a choice. So she wound up having to finance the additional $35,000 from her mum and dad and chalk it up to one of those lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are simply a few of the many very first house buyers that discover themselves in a truly stressful situation since they‘ve made a decision (and parted with a lot of savings) without having all the details and support from professionals, that they required.
And we honestly don’t wish that to happen to you!
