We understand it’s a really exciting time buying and building your very first house, nevertheless, it does not always end up that like that for lots of first house purchasers.
A lot of times we see people wasting hundreds of thousands of dollars on a new home & land package because they thought they were getting themselves a good deal.
But keep in mind, if it sounds too great to be real, it typically is!
See, some builders ‘conceal’ their extra costs and do not give you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they simply provided you, will most certainly NOT be the total cost you have to pay.
And that’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being sold any house and land packages that are tens of thousands of dollars cheaper than other comparable houses you have actually taken a look at … there is probably a good reason why.
The majority of the time it’s because you’re losing 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 expenses’ so the builder can make up their original price gap.
We hear a great deal of scary stories from very first house purchasers that get a bit too fired up and sadly didn’t do enough research prior to 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 home builder wished to construct a house on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself an inexpensive cost, however he ‘d actually paid more than what it was valued at and truly didn’t need to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, sadly, approached us after she ‘d just signed agreements with a big home builder and paid her deposit, only to later on be hit with an extra $35,000 in ‘unanticipated’ expenses (for items she thought were included in the original quote) and had no idea how she ‘d cover the costs.
Luckily, with Rahul, one of our new house land specialists were able to assist him find a builder that specialised in working on smaller 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 again with another builder and losing the deposit she had actually already paid wasn’t an option. So she ended up needing to borrow the extra $35,000 from her parents and chalk it up to one of those lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are simply some of the many very first house purchasers that find themselves in a truly stressful situation because they have actually decided (and parted with a great deal of money) without having all the details and help from specialists, that they required.
And we truly do not want that to occur to you!
