We know it’s a very thrilling time buying and building your very first home, nevertheless, it does not always end up that way for a good deal of first time home buyers.
Too many times we see people wasting hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new house & land bundle because they believed they were getting themselves a good deal.
However keep in mind, if it sounds too good to be true, it typically is!
See, some Companies ‘hide’ their extra fees and don’t give you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Suggesting that ‘quote’ they simply gave you, will most definitely NOT be the total amount you need to pay.
Which’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being sold any home and land packages that are 10s of thousands of dollars cheaper than other similar homes you‘ve looked at … there is probably a great reason why.
The majority of the time it’s because you’re losing out on inclusions that must actually come as standard (and they’ll be making you pay for them later), or you’re going to be paying extra for ‘site costs’ so the home builder can make up their original price gap.
We hear a great deal of horror stories from very first home buyers that get a little bit too fired up and sadly didn’t do adequate due diligence before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was one of them. He approached us after spending his whole $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no home builder wanted to construct a house on (plus the worst part was, he believed he ‘d got himself a cheap cost, however he ‘d actually paid more than what it was valued at and truly didn’t require to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, sadly, contacted us after she ‘d just signed contracts with a big home builder and paid her deposit, only to later be hit with an additional $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ costs (for extras she believed were inclusive in the original quote) and had no idea how she ‘d cover the costs.
Fortunately, with Rahul, among our new home build experts were able to help him discover a 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 too late. Beginning again with another Company and losing the deposit she ‘d previously paid wasn’t an alternative. So she ended up having to finance the extra $35,000 from her parents and chalk it up to one of lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are simply a few of the many very first home buyers that discover themselves in a really confronting scenario because they‘ve decided (and parted with a great deal of cash) without having all the information and support from experts, that they required.
And we truly don’t wish that to occur to you!
