We know it’s a very exciting time purchasing and building your first home, however, it doesn’t constantly end up that like that for a good deal of first home buyers.
Too many times we see individuals wasting hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a brand-new house & land package because they thought they were getting themselves a great deal.
But remember, if it sounds too good to be real, it usually is!
See, some Companies ‘conceal’ their additional charges and do not offer you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they just provided you, will most certainly NOT be the total amount you have to pay.
Which’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 cheaper than other comparable houses you have actually looked at … there is probably a great reason why.
Most of the time it’s because you’re missing out on extras that need to really come as standard (and they’ll be making you pay for them later on), or you’re going to be paying additional for ‘site expenses’ so the contractor can make up their original price shortfall.
We hear a lot of scary stories from first home buyers that get a little bit too fired up and unfortunately didn’t do sufficient research prior to parting with their hard-earned cash.
Rahul was among them. He approached us after spending his entire $25,000 deposit to lock in a block of land that no home builder wanted to build on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a low-cost price, but he ‘d really paid more than what it was worth and actually didn’t require to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, approached us after she ‘d already signed contracts with a big home builder and paid her deposit, just to later on be struck with an extra $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ expenses (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 brand-new home specialists had the ability to help him discover a builder that specialised in working on smaller narrow blocks of land and wasn’t going to charge him a fortune to do so.
However, with Sara, it was far too late. Starting once again with another builder and losing the deposit she had actually previously paid wasn’t an option. So she ended up needing to borrow the additional $35,000 from her parents and chalk it up to one of lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are just a few of the numerous first home buyers that discover themselves in a truly difficult circumstance because they have actually made a decision (and parted with a lot of savings) without having all the information and help from specialists, that they needed.
And we honestly do not wish that to occur to you!
