We know it’s an extremely thrilling time purchasing and building your first home, however, it doesn’t constantly wind up that way for a good deal of first home buyers.
Too many times we see people losing hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new house & land bundle since they thought they were getting themselves a good deal.
But remember, if it sounds too good to be real, it usually is!
See, some Companies ‘conceal’ their extra charges and don’t provide you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they simply gave you, will most definitely NOT be the total cost you have to pay.
And that’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being sold any home and land packages that are 10s of thousands of dollars less expensive than other similar homes you‘ve looked at … there is probably an excellent reason why.
Most of the time it’s since you’re losing 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 builder can catch up their original price gap.
We hear a lot of horror stories from first home buyers that get a bit too excited and regrettably didn’t do sufficient research prior to parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was one of them. He approached us after spending his entire $25,000 deposit to lock in a block of land that no home builder wished to develop on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a low-cost price, but he ‘d actually paid more than what it was valued at and actually didn’t need to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, regrettably, came to us after she ‘d already signed agreements with a big home builder and paid her deposit, just to later be hit with an additional $35,000 in ‘unanticipated’ costs (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 home professionals had the ability 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.
But, with Sara, it was too late. Beginning again with another builder and losing the deposit she ‘d previously paid wasn’t an alternative. So she wound up needing to borrow the extra $35,000 from her mum and dad and chalk it up to one of those lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are simply some of the numerous first home buyers that discover themselves in a truly difficult scenario since they‘ve made a decision (and parted with a lot of cash) without having all the info and assistance from professionals, that they required.
And we honestly don’t want that to occur to you!
