We know it’s a very amazing time buying and building your first home, however, it does not always end up that way for a good deal of first time home buyers.
A lot of times we see individuals squandering hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a brand-new house & land bundle because they thought they were getting themselves a good deal.
But keep in mind, if it sounds too great to be real, it usually is!
See, some home builders ‘hide’ their extra fees and do not give you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Suggesting that ‘quote’ they just provided you, will most definitely NOT be the total cost 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 tens of thousands of dollars cheaper than other comparable houses you have actually looked at … there is probably a good reason why.
The majority of the time it’s because you’re losing out on extras that should actually come as standard (and they’ll be making you pay for them later on), or you’re going to be paying extra for ‘site costs’ so the contractor can make up their original price shortfall.
We hear a lot of horror stories from first home buyers that get a little bit too fired up and regrettably didn’t do enough research before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was among them. He came to us after spending his entire $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no Company wanted to construct a house on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a cheap price, but he ‘d in fact paid more than what it was valued at and actually didn’t require to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, regrettably, approached us after she ‘d already signed contracts with a well known Company and paid her deposit, just to later on be struck with an extra $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ costs (for items she thought were included in the original quote) and had no idea how she ‘d pay for them.
Thankfully, with Rahul, one of our brand-new home land experts had the ability to assist him find a home 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. Starting again with another builder and losing the deposit she ‘d already paid wasn’t an option. So she wound up having to finance the extra $35,000 from her mum and dad and chalk it up to one of those lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are just a few of the many first home buyers that find themselves in a really stressful situation because they have actually decided (and parted with a lot of cash) without having all the info and assistance from experts, that they needed.
