We understand it’s a very exciting time purchasing and building your first house, nevertheless, it does not always end up that like that for many first house buyers.
Too many times we see individuals losing hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a brand-new home & land package because they believed they were getting themselves a great deal.
However keep in mind, if it sounds too great to be true, it normally is!
See, some builders ‘conceal’ their additional charges and don’t give you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Suggesting that ‘quote’ they just offered you, will most certainly NOT be the total cost 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 tens of thousands of dollars cheaper than other similar homes you‘ve looked at … there is probably an excellent reason why.
Most of the time it’s because you’re missing out on inclusions that need to really come as standard (and they’ll be making you pay for them later), or you’re going to be paying additional for ‘site expenses’ so the contractor can catch up their original price gap.
We hear a lot of horror stories from first house buyers that get a little bit too fired up and sadly didn’t do sufficient research before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was among them. He came to us after using his entire $25,000 deposit to lock in a block of land that no Company wanted to construct a house on (plus the worst part was, he believed he ‘d got himself a low-cost cost, however he ‘d really paid more than what it was valued at and actually didn’t require to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, sadly, contacted us after she ‘d already signed agreements with a well known Company and paid her deposit, only to later be hit with an additional $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ expenses (for items she believed were inclusive in the initial quote) and had no idea how she ‘d pay for them.
Thankfully, with Rahul, one of our brand-new house build experts had the ability to assist him discover a home builder that specialised in building on smaller sized narrow blocks of land and wasn’t going to charge him a fortune to do so.
But, with Sara, it was far too late. Beginning again with another home builder and losing the deposit she ‘d already paid wasn’t an alternative. So she ended up needing to borrow the additional $35,000 from her mum and dad and chalk it up to one of lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are just some of the numerous first house buyers that discover themselves in a truly difficult circumstance because they‘ve decided (and parted with a lot of money) without having all the information and help from experts, that they required.
