We understand it’s a really exciting time buying and building your very first house, however, it does not always wind up that like that for many first house buyers.
Too many times we see people squandering hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new home & land bundle because they believed they were getting themselves a good deal.
But remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it typically is!
See, some builders ‘hide’ their additional costs and don’t offer you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Suggesting that ‘quote’ they just offered you, will most definitely NOT be the final amount you need to pay.
And that’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being sold any house and land packages that are tens of thousands of dollars cheaper than other comparable houses you have actually looked at … there is probably a great reason why.
Most 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 home builder can catch up their original price gap.
We hear a great deal of scary stories from very first house buyers that get a bit too excited and regrettably didn’t do adequate due diligence before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was one of them. He came to us after spending his whole $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no builder wished to build on (plus the worst part was, he believed he ‘d got himself an inexpensive rate, however he ‘d really paid more than what it was valued at and really didn’t require to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, regrettably, contacted us after she ‘d already signed agreements with a well known builder and paid her deposit, just to later on be hit with an additional $35,000 in ‘unexpected’ expenses (for items she believed were included in the original quote) and had no idea how she ‘d pay for them.
Thankfully, with Rahul, among our new house land experts had the ability to help him discover a 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 again with another builder and losing the deposit she ‘d already 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 lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are just some of the numerous very first house buyers that discover themselves in a really difficult scenario because they have actually made a decision (and parted with a great deal of money) without having all the info and assistance from experts, that they required.
And we truly don’t wish that to happen to you!
