We know it’s an extremely amazing time buying and building your first house, however, it does not always end up that like that for a good deal of first house buyers.
Too many times we see individuals wasting hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new house & land package due to the fact that they believed they were getting themselves a great deal.
But remember, if it sounds too great to be true, it typically is!
See, some Companies ‘hide’ their additional costs and don’t offer you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they simply provided you, will most certainly NOT be the total amount you need to pay.
Which’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 less expensive than other similar houses you‘ve looked at … there is most likely an excellent reason why.
Most of the time it’s due to the fact that you’re missing out on extras 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 catch up their original price gap.
We hear a lot of scary stories from first house buyers that get a bit too fired up and sadly didn’t do enough 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 lock in a block of land that no Company wished to construct a house on (plus the worst part was, he believed he ‘d got himself an inexpensive rate, however he ‘d actually paid more than what it was worth and truly didn’t require to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, sadly, contacted us after she ‘d already signed agreements with a well known Company and paid her deposit, just to later be struck with an additional $35,000 in ‘unexpected’ expenses (for extras she believed were included in the initial quote) and had no idea how she ‘d pay for them.
Fortunately, with Rahul, one of our new house build specialists were able to help him find a home builder that specialised in working on smaller narrow blocks of land and wasn’t going to charge him a fortune to do so.
But, with Sara, it was far too late. Starting once again with another home builder and losing the deposit she had actually already paid wasn’t an alternative. So she wound up having to finance the additional $35,000 from her parents and chalk it up to one of lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are simply some of the many first house buyers that find themselves in a truly difficult circumstance due to the fact that they‘ve decided (and parted with a lot of money) without having all the details and assistance from specialists, that they needed.
And we really don’t wish that to occur to you!
