We understand it’s a really amazing time buying and building your first home, however, it doesn’t constantly wind up that like that for many first home purchasers.
Too many times we see individuals losing hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new home & land package because they thought they were getting themselves a great deal.
However remember, if it sounds too good to be real, it generally is!
See, some builders ‘hide’ their additional fees and do not provide you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they just gave you, will most absolutely NOT be the total amount you need 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 less expensive than other comparable houses you‘ve taken a look at … there is probably an excellent reason why.
Most of the time it’s because you’re missing out on extras that ought to 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 home builder can catch up their original price shortfall.
We hear a lot of scary stories from first home purchasers that get a little bit too fired up and unfortunately didn’t do sufficient due diligence prior to 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 builder wanted to develop on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a cheap rate, but he ‘d actually paid more than what it was valued at and really didn’t require to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, contacted us after she ‘d already signed agreements with a well known builder and paid her deposit, just to later on be struck with an extra $35,000 in ‘unexpected’ expenses (for extras she thought were inclusive in the initial quote) and had no thought of how she ‘d pay for them.
Fortunately, with Rahul, among our new home build experts had the ability to assist him find a builder that specialised in building on smaller narrow blocks of land and wasn’t going to charge him a fortune to do so.
However, with Sara, it was too late. Beginning again with another builder and losing the deposit she had actually already paid wasn’t a choice. So she wound up needing to finance 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 purchasers that find themselves in a really difficult scenario because they‘ve decided (and parted with a lot of cash) without having all the info and assistance from experts, that they needed.
And we truly do not wish that to happen to you!
