We understand it’s a very amazing time buying and building your first home, however, it does not always wind up that like that for a good deal of first time home purchasers.
Too many times we see people squandering hundreds of thousands of their hard earned money on a new home & land package due to the fact that they thought they were getting themselves a great deal.
However keep in mind, if it sounds too great to be true, it usually is!
See, some home builders ‘conceal’ their additional fees and do not provide you fixed upfront ‘quotes’. Indicating that ‘quote’ they just offered you, will most definitely NOT be the final amount you need to pay.
Which’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‘ve looked at … there is probably an excellent reason why.
The majority of the time it’s due to the fact that 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 costs’ so the builder can make up their original price shortfall.
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 prior to parting with their hard-earned money.
Rahul was one of them. He approached us after using his whole $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 an inexpensive rate, but he ‘d really paid more than what it was valued at and truly didn’t require to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, regrettably, came to us after she ‘d already signed contracts with a big Company and paid her deposit, just to later be hit with an extra $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ costs (for extras she thought were included in the original quote) and had no thought of how she ‘d pay for them.
Luckily, with Rahul, among our new home land experts were able to assist him find a home builder that specialised in building 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 home builder and losing the deposit she had actually already paid wasn’t a choice. So she ended up having to finance the additional $35,000 from her parents and chalk it up to one of lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are just some of the many first home purchasers that find themselves in a truly difficult circumstance due to the fact that they‘ve made a decision (and parted with a lot of money) without having all the info and assistance from experts, that they needed.
