We know it’s a very exciting time buying and building your very first home, nevertheless, it doesn’t constantly end up that like that for many first home purchasers.
Too many times we see people wasting hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a brand-new home & land package because they believed they were getting themselves a good deal.
However keep in mind, if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is!
See, some home builders ‘conceal’ their extra charges and don’t provide you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Indicating that ‘quote’ they just offered you, will most absolutely NOT be the final cost you need to pay.
And that’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 comparable homes you‘ve looked at … there is most likely a great reason why.
Most of the time it’s because you’re missing out on inclusions that must actually come as standard (and they’ll be making you pay for them later), or you’re going to be paying extra for ‘site costs’ so the home builder can make up their original price gap.
We hear a lot of scary stories from very first home purchasers that get a little bit too excited and sadly didn’t do sufficient due diligence before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was one of them. He came to us after using his entire $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no builder wished to develop on (plus the worst part was, he believed he ‘d got himself a low-cost rate, however he ‘d in fact paid more than what it was valued at and really didn’t need to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, sadly, came to us after she ‘d just signed agreements with a well known builder and paid her deposit, just to later be struck with an additional $35,000 in ‘unanticipated’ costs (for extras she believed were included in the original quote) and had no idea how she ‘d pay for them.
Thankfully, with Rahul, one of our brand-new home build professionals were able to assist him find a builder that specialised in building on smaller narrow blocks of land and wasn’t going to charge him a fortune to do so.
However, with Sara, it was too late. Beginning again with another Company and losing the deposit she had actually previously paid wasn’t an alternative. 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 just some of the many very first home purchasers that find themselves in a really stressful scenario because they‘ve decided (and parted with a lot of money) without having all the details and assistance from professionals, that they needed.
