We know it’s a very thrilling time purchasing and building your very first home, nevertheless, it doesn’t always wind up that way for lots of first home buyers.
Too many times we see people squandering hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a brand-new house & land package because they thought they were getting themselves a good deal.
However remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it normally is!
See, some home builders ‘conceal’ their additional charges and do not provide you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Suggesting that ‘quote’ they just offered you, will most certainly NOT be the final cost you have to pay.
Which’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being sold any home and land packages that are 10s of thousands of dollars cheaper than other similar homes you‘ve looked at … there is most likely a great reason why.
Most of the time it’s because you’re losing out on inclusions that should really 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 home builder can catch up their original price shortfall.
We hear a lot of scary stories from very first home buyers that get a little bit too fired up and unfortunately didn’t do sufficient research prior to parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was among them. He came to us after using his whole $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no home builder wanted to develop on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a low-cost cost, but he ‘d actually paid more than what it was valued at and really didn’t need to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, approached us after she ‘d already signed contracts with a well known home builder and paid her deposit, just to later be struck with an extra $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ costs (for extras she thought were included in the initial quote) and had no idea how she ‘d pay for them.
Thankfully, with Rahul, among our brand-new home professionals were able to help 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.
But, with Sara, it was too late. Starting again with another Company and losing the deposit she had actually previously paid wasn’t a choice. So she wound 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 a few of the numerous very first home buyers that find themselves in a truly stressful situation because they‘ve made a decision (and parted with a lot of money) without having all the info and support from professionals, that they needed.
