We know it’s an extremely thrilling time buying and building your first house, nevertheless, 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 home & land package due to the fact that they believed they were getting themselves a good deal.
But keep in mind, if it sounds too great to be true, it normally is!
See, some Companies ‘conceal’ their extra costs and do not provide you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they just gave you, will most certainly NOT be the final amount you need to pay.
And that’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being sold any house and land packages that are tens of thousands of dollars cheaper than other comparable houses you‘ve looked at … there is most likely an excellent reason why.
The majority of the time it’s due to the fact that you’re losing out on inclusions that ought to really come as standard (and they’ll be making you pay for them later on), or you’re going to be paying extra for ‘site costs’ so the contractor can catch up their original price shortfall.
We hear a great deal of horror stories from first house buyers that get a little bit too excited and unfortunately didn’t do sufficient research before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was among them. He came to us after spending his entire $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no home builder wished to develop on (plus the worst part was, he believed he ‘d got himself a cheap rate, however he ‘d really paid more than what it was valued at and really didn’t require to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, contacted us after she ‘d already signed contracts with a well known home builder and paid her deposit, just to later on be struck with an extra $35,000 in ‘unanticipated’ costs (for extras she believed were included in the original quote) and had no thought of how she ‘d pay for them.
Thankfully, with Rahul, one of our new house land specialists were able to help him discover a 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. Starting once again with another Company and losing the deposit she ‘d previously paid wasn’t an alternative. So she ended up needing to borrow the extra $35,000 from her parents and chalk it up to one of lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are just some of the many first house buyers that discover themselves in a really stressful scenario due to the fact that they‘ve decided (and parted with a great deal of savings) without having all the details and help from specialists, that they required.
