We know it’s a very amazing time buying and building your first home, however, it does not always wind up that like that for lots of first home purchasers.
Too many times we see individuals wasting hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a brand-new home & land bundle because they thought they were getting themselves a great deal.
But remember, if it sounds too great to be real, it usually is!
See, some home builders ‘hide’ their extra fees and do not provide you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they simply provided you, will most certainly NOT be the total cost you need to pay.
And that’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being offered any home and land packages that are 10s of thousands of dollars less expensive than other similar homes you have actually looked at … there is most likely a good reason why.
Most of the time it’s because you’re missing 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 costs’ so the contractor can make up their original price gap.
We hear a lot of scary stories from first home purchasers that get a bit too excited and regrettably didn’t do sufficient due diligence before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was among them. He came to us after using his entire $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no Company wanted to build on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself an inexpensive rate, but he ‘d really paid more than what it was valued at and actually didn’t require to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, regrettably, approached us after she ‘d already signed agreements with a well known Company and paid her deposit, just to later on be struck with an additional $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ costs (for extras she thought were inclusive in the initial quote) and had no idea how she ‘d pay for them.
Fortunately, with Rahul, one of our brand-new home land specialists had the ability to help him find a builder that specialised in working 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. Starting again with another Company and losing the deposit she ‘d previously paid wasn’t a choice. So she ended up having to finance the extra $35,000 from her mum and dad and chalk it up to one of those lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are simply a few of the many first home purchasers that find themselves in a truly stressful circumstance because they have actually made a decision (and parted with a lot of cash) without having all the info and support from specialists, that they needed.
And we truly do not want that to occur to you!
