We understand it’s a very exciting time purchasing and building your very first home, however, it doesn’t always end up that way for lots of first time home purchasers.
Too many times we see people wasting hundreds of thousands of dollars on a brand-new home & land bundle since they thought they were getting themselves a good deal.
But keep in mind, if it sounds too great to be real, it typically is!
See, some builders ‘conceal’ their additional costs and do not give you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they simply offered you, will most absolutely NOT be the final amount you need to pay.
And that’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being offered any home and land packages that are tens of thousands of dollars less expensive than other comparable houses you‘ve looked at … there is most likely an excellent reason why.
Most of the time it’s since 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 builder can make up their original price shortfall.
We hear a great deal of horror stories from very first home purchasers that get a bit too excited and regrettably didn’t do sufficient due diligence before parting with their hard-earned cash.
Rahul was one of them. He approached us after using his whole $25,000 deposit to lock in a block of land that no home builder wanted to construct a house on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a cheap price, but he ‘d in fact paid more than what it was valued at and really didn’t need to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, regrettably, contacted us after she ‘d just signed agreements with a well known home builder and paid her deposit, only to later be hit with an extra $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ expenses (for items she thought were inclusive in the initial quote) and had no idea how she ‘d cover the costs.
Luckily, with Rahul, one of our brand-new home professionals were able to help him discover a home builder that specialised in building on smaller sized narrow blocks of land and wasn’t going to charge him a fortune to do so.
However, with Sara, it was too late. Starting again with another home builder and losing the deposit she ‘d previously paid wasn’t a choice. So she ended up having to finance the additional $35,000 from her mum and dad and chalk it up to one of lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are simply a few of the many very first home purchasers that discover themselves in a really difficult situation since they‘ve made a decision (and parted with a great deal of cash) without having all the details and assistance from professionals, that they needed.
And we truly do not want that to happen to you!
