We know it’s an extremely thrilling time buying and building your very first house, however, it does not always end up that way for a good deal of first house purchasers.
Too many times we see people wasting hundreds of thousands of dollars on a new home & land bundle because they believed they were getting themselves a great deal.
However remember, if it sounds too great to be real, it typically is!
See, some home builders ‘hide’ their extra costs and don’t provide you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they just provided you, will most definitely NOT be the final amount 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 homes you‘ve taken a look at … there is probably a great reason why.
The majority of the time it’s because you’re losing out on inclusions that should 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 catch up their original price shortfall.
We hear a great deal of scary stories from very first house purchasers that get a little bit too excited and unfortunately didn’t do sufficient due diligence prior to parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was one of them. He came to us after using his whole $25,000 deposit to lock in 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 low-cost price, but he ‘d actually paid more than what it was valued at and actually didn’t require to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, came to us after she ‘d just signed contracts with a well known home builder and paid her deposit, only to later on be hit with an extra $35,000 in ‘unexpected’ expenses (for extras she believed were inclusive in the original quote) and had no idea how she ‘d cover the costs.
Thankfully, with Rahul, one of our new house build professionals had the ability to help him find 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.
But, with Sara, it was far too late. Beginning again with another home builder and losing the deposit she had actually already paid wasn’t an option. So she wound up having to finance the extra $35,000 from her parents and chalk it up to one of those lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are just a few of the numerous very first house purchasers that find themselves in a really difficult situation because they‘ve decided (and parted with a great deal of money) without having all the information and help from professionals, that they needed.
And we truly don’t wish that to happen to you!
