We know it’s a very amazing time buying and building your very first house, nevertheless, it doesn’t always wind up that like that for lots of first time house purchasers.
A lot of times we see people wasting hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a brand-new house & land package since they believed they were getting themselves a great deal.
However remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it generally is!
See, some builders ‘hide’ their extra costs and don’t provide you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Indicating that ‘quote’ they just offered you, will most definitely NOT be the final cost you need 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 less expensive than other comparable houses you‘ve looked at … there is most likely a good reason why.
Most of the time it’s since you’re missing out on extras that must 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 gap.
We hear a lot of scary stories from very first house purchasers that get a bit too fired up and unfortunately didn’t do adequate due diligence before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was among them. He approached us after spending his entire $25,000 deposit to lock in 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 cost, however he ‘d actually paid more than what it was worth and really didn’t require to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, contacted us after she ‘d already signed contracts with a big builder and paid her deposit, just to later on be struck with an additional $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ costs (for items she believed were inclusive in the initial quote) and had no idea how she ‘d cover the costs.
Thankfully, with Rahul, one of our brand-new house build experts had the ability to help him find a builder that specialised in working on smaller sized narrow blocks of land and wasn’t going to charge him a fortune to do so.
However, with Sara, it was far too late. Beginning once again with another builder and losing the deposit she ‘d already paid wasn’t an option. So she ended up having to finance the extra $35,000 from her mum and dad and chalk it up to one of those lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are just a few of the many very first house purchasers that find themselves in a really difficult situation since they‘ve decided (and parted with a lot of money) without having all the details and support from experts, that they required.
And we honestly don’t wish that to happen to you!
