We understand it’s an extremely thrilling time buying and building your first home, however, it doesn’t constantly end up that like that for many first time home buyers.
Too many times we see people losing hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a brand-new home & land bundle due to the fact that they believed they were getting themselves a great deal.
But remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it typically is!
See, some home builders ‘conceal’ their additional fees and do not offer you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they just offered you, will most definitely NOT be the total amount you need to pay.
Which’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being offered any home and land packages that are 10s of thousands of dollars less expensive than other similar homes you have actually taken a look at … there is most likely an excellent reason why.
Most of the time it’s due to the fact that 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 additional for ‘site costs’ 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 excited and sadly didn’t do adequate research before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was one of them. He came to us after using his whole $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no builder wished to develop on (plus the worst part was, he believed he ‘d got himself a cheap price, however he ‘d actually paid more than what it was worth and actually didn’t need to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, sadly, approached us after she ‘d already signed contracts with a well known builder and paid her deposit, only to later be hit with an extra $35,000 in ‘unexpected’ costs (for extras she believed were inclusive in the original quote) and had no thought of how she ‘d pay for them.
Fortunately, with Rahul, one of our brand-new home professionals were able to assist him discover a home builder that specialised in working 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. Beginning once again with another home builder and losing the deposit she ‘d previously paid wasn’t an alternative. So she wound up needing to borrow the additional $35,000 from her mum and dad and chalk it up to one of lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are just some of the numerous first home buyers that discover themselves in a really confronting situation due to the fact that they have actually decided (and parted with a lot of savings) without having all the info and support from professionals, that they needed.
And we really do not wish that to happen to you!
