We understand it’s a very amazing time purchasing and building your first house, however, it does not always end up that like that for a good deal of first house buyers.
A lot of times we see people losing hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new home & land package because they thought they were getting themselves a good deal.
But remember, if it sounds too good to be real, it typically is!
See, some home builders ‘hide’ their additional charges and don’t give you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they just provided you, will most certainly NOT be the final cost you have to pay.
And that’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being sold any house and land packages that are 10s of thousands of dollars less expensive than other similar houses you have actually looked at … there is probably an excellent reason why.
The majority of the time it’s because you’re missing out on inclusions that should actually 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 catch up their original price shortfall.
We hear a great deal of horror stories from first house buyers that get a bit too excited and regrettably didn’t do adequate due diligence before parting with their hard-earned cash.
Rahul was among them. He came to us after using his entire $25,000 deposit to lock in a block of land that no Company wanted 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 worth and truly didn’t require to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, regrettably, came to us after she ‘d already signed agreements with a well known Company and paid her deposit, just to later on be struck with an additional $35,000 in ‘unexpected’ expenses (for items she thought were inclusive in the original quote) and had no thought of how she ‘d pay for them.
Fortunately, with Rahul, one of our new house professionals had the ability to help him find a builder that specialised in working 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. Beginning again with another home builder and losing the deposit she had actually previously paid wasn’t an alternative. 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 just some of the many first house buyers that find themselves in a truly confronting scenario because they have actually made a decision (and parted with a great deal of savings) without having all the info and support from professionals, that they needed.
And we really don’t want that to happen to you!
