We understand it’s a very amazing time buying and building your first house, however, it does not always wind up that like that for many first house buyers.
Too many times we see individuals losing hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new home & land bundle because they thought they were getting themselves a good deal.
But remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it generally is!
See, some builders ‘conceal’ their additional costs and do not provide you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they simply provided you, will most definitely NOT be the total amount 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 10s of thousands of dollars less expensive than other similar homes you‘ve looked at … there is most likely a great reason why.
The majority of the time it’s because you’re losing out on inclusions that should actually come as standard (and they’ll be making you pay for them later), or you’re going to be paying additional for ‘site expenses’ so the contractor can make up their original price gap.
We hear a great deal of horror stories from first house buyers that get a little bit too excited and sadly didn’t do sufficient research prior to 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 Company wanted to build on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself an inexpensive cost, but he ‘d really paid more than what it was worth and actually didn’t need to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, sadly, came to us after she ‘d already signed agreements with a big Company and paid her deposit, only to later be struck with an extra $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ expenses (for extras she thought were inclusive in the original quote) and had no idea how she ‘d pay for them.
Thankfully, with Rahul, one of our new house land professionals were able to assist 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. Starting again with another builder and losing the deposit she ‘d previously paid wasn’t a choice. So she ended up having to borrow the additional $35,000 from her parents and chalk it up to one of those lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are simply some of the many first house buyers that discover themselves in a truly difficult situation because they‘ve decided (and parted with a great deal of cash) without having all the details and support from professionals, that they required.
And we truly do not wish that to happen to you!
