We understand it’s a very thrilling time buying and building your very first home, nevertheless, it doesn’t constantly end up that way for lots of first home buyers.
Too many times we see individuals losing hundreds of thousands of dollars on a new house & land bundle since they believed they were getting themselves a good deal.
But keep in mind, if it sounds too good to be real, it normally is!
See, some Companies ‘conceal’ their extra charges and don’t provide you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they just offered you, will most absolutely NOT be the total amount you need to pay.
And that’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being sold any home and land packages that are tens of thousands of dollars less expensive than other similar houses you have actually looked at … there is probably a great reason why.
Most of the time it’s since you’re missing out on extras that need to 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 home builder can catch up their original price gap.
We hear a lot of scary stories from very first home buyers that get a bit too fired up and sadly didn’t do enough due diligence before parting with their hard-earned cash.
Rahul was one of them. He approached us after using his entire $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no home builder wanted to develop on (plus the worst part was, he believed he ‘d got himself a low-cost price, but he ‘d really paid more than what it was worth and truly didn’t require to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, sadly, contacted us after she ‘d just signed agreements with a well known home builder and paid her deposit, only to later on be struck with an additional $35,000 in ‘unexpected’ costs (for items she believed were inclusive in the initial quote) and had no idea how she ‘d cover the costs.
Luckily, with Rahul, one of our new home build professionals were able to help him discover a home builder that specialised in working on smaller 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 once again with another Company and losing the deposit she ‘d previously paid wasn’t an option. So she ended up needing to borrow 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 very first home buyers that discover themselves in a truly difficult scenario since they have actually decided (and parted with a lot of cash) without having all the details and help from professionals, that they required.
And we honestly don’t want that to happen to you!
