We understand it’s a really amazing time purchasing and building your first house, nevertheless, it does not constantly end up that way for many first house buyers.
Too many times we see people wasting hundreds of thousands of dollars on a brand-new house & land package since they believed they were getting themselves a great deal.
However remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is!
See, some home builders ‘hide’ their additional charges and do not provide you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they just gave you, will most certainly NOT be the final amount you need 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 looked at … there is most likely a good reason why.
Most of the time it’s since you’re losing out on extras that must 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 home builder can make up their original price shortfall.
We hear a great deal of scary stories from first house buyers that get a bit too excited and regrettably didn’t do enough due diligence before parting with their hard-earned cash.
Rahul was among them. He approached us after spending his whole $25,000 deposit to lock in a block of land that no Company wanted to build on (plus the worst part was, he believed he ‘d got himself a low-cost cost, but he ‘d in fact paid more than what it was worth and really didn’t require to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, regrettably, came to us after she ‘d just signed agreements with a well known Company and paid her deposit, only to later be struck with an additional $35,000 in ‘unanticipated’ costs (for extras she believed were included in the original 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 help 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 too late. Starting once again with another home builder and losing the deposit she ‘d previously paid wasn’t an option. So she ended up having 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 many first house buyers that find themselves in a really difficult circumstance since they have actually made a decision (and parted with a great deal of savings) without having all the information and help from experts, that they needed.
And we really do not want that to occur to you!
