We know it’s a very exciting time purchasing and building your first house, nevertheless, it doesn’t constantly end up that like that for lots of first house buyers.
Too many times we see people losing hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new house & land package because they believed they were getting themselves a good deal.
However remember, if it sounds too great to be real, it normally is!
See, some home builders ‘conceal’ their additional fees and do not provide you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they just provided you, will most certainly NOT be the total amount you have to pay.
Which’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being offered any house 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 probably an excellent reason why.
The majority 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 costs’ so the home builder 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 unfortunately didn’t do sufficient research before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was one of them. He came to us after spending his entire $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no home builder wished to construct a house on (plus the worst part was, he believed he ‘d got himself a low-cost rate, but he ‘d really paid more than what it was valued at and really didn’t need to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, came to us after she ‘d just signed contracts with a well known home builder and paid her deposit, only to later on be struck with an additional $35,000 in ‘unanticipated’ costs (for extras she believed were included in the original quote) and had no thought of how she ‘d cover the costs.
Luckily, with Rahul, one of our new house experts were able to assist him find 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. Starting again with another builder and losing the deposit she ‘d previously paid wasn’t an option. So she ended up having to finance 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 numerous first house buyers that find themselves in a truly stressful situation because they have actually made a decision (and parted with a great deal of cash) without having all the details and support from experts, that they needed.
