We understand it’s a really amazing time buying and building your first house, however, it does not always wind up that like that for lots of first house buyers.
Too many times we see individuals wasting hundreds of thousands of dollars on a brand-new home & land bundle because they thought they were getting themselves a good deal.
However remember, if it sounds too good to be real, it generally is!
See, some builders ‘hide’ their extra costs and don’t give you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Suggesting that ‘quote’ they just offered you, will most definitely NOT be the final 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 taken a look at … there is most likely a good 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 extra for ‘site expenses’ so the contractor can make up their original price gap.
We hear a lot of horror stories from first house buyers that get a little bit too excited and unfortunately didn’t do adequate due diligence prior to parting with their hard-earned cash.
Rahul was among them. He approached us after spending his whole $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no home builder wanted to build on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a low-cost rate, however he ‘d really paid more than what it was valued at and truly didn’t require to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, came to us after she ‘d already signed contracts with a big home builder and paid her deposit, just to later be hit with an additional $35,000 in ‘unanticipated’ expenses (for items she thought were inclusive in the original quote) and had no thought of how she ‘d cover the costs.
Fortunately, with Rahul, among our brand-new house land experts had the ability to help him find 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.
However, with Sara, it was far too late. Starting 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 lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are just a few of the numerous first house buyers that find themselves in a truly stressful situation because they‘ve decided (and parted with a lot of cash) without having all the information and help from experts, that they needed.
And we truly don’t want that to happen to you!
