We understand it’s a very exciting time buying and building your first house, however, it does not always end up that like that for many first time house buyers.
A lot of times we see individuals wasting hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a brand-new house & land package since they thought they were getting themselves a great deal.
But keep in mind, if it sounds too good to be true, it normally is!
See, some home builders ‘conceal’ their additional fees and don’t offer you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Suggesting that ‘quote’ they simply provided you, will most absolutely 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 10s of thousands of dollars less expensive than other similar houses you‘ve looked at … there is most likely an excellent reason why.
The majority of the time it’s since you’re missing out on inclusions that ought to actually 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 contractor can make up their original price shortfall.
We hear a great deal of scary stories from first house buyers that get a bit too fired up and unfortunately didn’t do adequate due diligence prior to 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 home builder wished to develop on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a cheap rate, however he ‘d actually paid more than what it was valued at and actually didn’t require to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, contacted us after she ‘d just signed agreements 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 original quote) and had no thought of how she ‘d cover the costs.
Fortunately, with Rahul, among our brand-new house professionals had the ability to assist him discover a builder that specialised in building on smaller 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 builder and losing the deposit she had actually previously paid wasn’t an alternative. 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 simply a few of the numerous first house buyers that discover themselves in a truly difficult situation since they‘ve made a decision (and parted with a great deal of savings) without having all the information and help from professionals, that they required.
And we truly don’t want that to happen to you!
