🏡 “What are property searches?”
We’ve had a lot of first home buyers asking us this recently — and we can tell many are concerned about costs. This is totally understandable in the cost of living crisis, along with the struggles first home buyers face getting into the market.
But here’s the thing about property searches…
1️⃣ Searches reveal the finer details about the property, things you won’t see in the contract or at an inspection, like easements, zoning restrictions, flood risks, or unpaid rates.
2️⃣Yes, they cost money, usually a few hundred dollars depending on the property.
3️⃣ But they might be the best money you ever spend! That small upfront investment can save you thousands in surprises after settlement and give you peace of mind that your new home is exactly what you expect.
Don’t let your dream home become your nightmare. Make sure you do your property searches.
