We understand it’s a really amazing time purchasing and building your first home, nevertheless, it doesn’t always end up that way for lots of first time home purchasers.
Too many times we see people wasting hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a brand-new home & land package because they thought they were getting themselves a good deal.
However keep in mind, if it sounds too great to be true, it generally is!
See, some builders ‘conceal’ their additional fees and don’t give you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they just offered you, will most certainly NOT be the total amount 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 tens of thousands of dollars less expensive than other comparable homes you have actually looked at … there is probably a great reason why.
Most of the time it’s because you’re missing 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 additional for ‘site expenses’ so the builder can make up their original price gap.
We hear a lot of horror stories from first home purchasers that get a bit too excited and sadly didn’t do adequate due diligence before parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was among them. He came to us after using his whole $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no builder wished to build on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a low-cost price, however he ‘d really paid more than what it was valued at and truly didn’t need to turn over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, sadly, approached us after she ‘d already signed contracts with a big builder and paid her deposit, just to later be hit with an extra $35,000 in ‘unanticipated’ expenses (for extras she thought were included in the initial quote) and had no idea how she ‘d pay for them.
Thankfully, with Rahul, among our brand-new home build specialists had the ability to assist 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 too late. Beginning once again with another Company and losing the deposit she had actually previously paid wasn’t an alternative. So she wound up needing to borrow the additional $35,000 from her mum and dad and chalk it up to one of those lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are just a few of the numerous first home purchasers that find themselves in a truly difficult situation because they have actually decided (and parted with a lot of cash) without having all the information and assistance from specialists, that they needed.
And we really don’t want that to happen to you!
