We understand it’s a very amazing time purchasing and building your first house, nevertheless, it does not always end up that like that for lots of first house purchasers.
Too many times we see people losing hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new house & land bundle since they thought they were getting themselves a great deal.
But keep in mind, if it sounds too great to be real, it generally is!
See, some builders ‘conceal’ their additional fees and don’t give you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they just provided you, will most absolutely NOT be the total amount you have to pay.
And that’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being offered any house and land packages that are 10s of thousands of dollars less expensive than other similar homes you‘ve taken a look at … there is probably an excellent reason why.
Most of the time it’s since you’re missing out on inclusions that should actually come as standard (and they’ll be making you pay for them later), or you’re going to be paying additional for ‘site expenses’ so the contractor can make up their original price shortfall.
We hear a lot of scary stories from first house purchasers that get a bit too fired up and unfortunately didn’t do adequate research before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was one of them. He came to us after using his entire $25,000 deposit to lock in a block of land that no Company wished to build on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a cheap price, however he ‘d really paid more than what it was valued at and actually didn’t need to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, approached us after she ‘d already signed contracts with a well known Company and paid her deposit, just to later be hit with an additional $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ expenses (for items she thought were included in the original quote) and had no idea how she ‘d cover the costs.
Fortunately, with Rahul, one of our new house land experts were able to assist him find a home builder that specialised in building 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 again with another builder and losing the deposit she ‘d already paid wasn’t an alternative. So she ended up needing to finance 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 numerous first house purchasers that find themselves in a really confronting circumstance since they‘ve decided (and parted with a lot of cash) without having all the details and assistance from experts, that they needed.
And we really don’t wish that to happen to you!
