Working through the paper work presented in Display Homes by the local Home builders often creates confusion over what is and isn't included in the display home building price. This is a tactic employed by builders to make it much more difficult for the average home buyer to compare one home with another. As a Building Broker it can take ฝากขายคอนโด me hours to compare quotes, and that's when I'm comparing quotes for the same house using the same specification! Each builder has their own method of pricing and what they do and don't include in the base price. This simple guide will show you how you can make a comparison between each display home.
The first step is to create a spreadsheet where you can write in figures to make calculations easier. Set up each builders going horizontally and then write each category for comparison vertically in the left hand column. This will allow you to bring each home into line with each other, to make them 'equal' or as close to it as possible using a method of ups and downs to compare.
Enter the house price for each of the homes working horizontally across the page and then the overall area of the home. Dividing the area into the house price will create a 'base square metre rate' where you can see the general square metre price for each of the homes. Square metre rates aren't always the best way to compare homes as it excludes vertical prices, but it can be used as a rough guide.
Now you need to nominate one of the homes to use as a standard. I would recommend selecting the home that you think has the lowest level of product specification included in the price. This is the platform you will use as the 'base level of inclusions'. Often it's the home that is the cheapest when using the square metre rate.
Now you must consider the features in the other homes. Let's say 2 of the homes have stone bench tops to the kitchens and 2 of the homes have standard laminated bench tops. For the homes that only have the laminate you need to add an amount that is reasonable for the cost of adding stone bench tops. In this example, for an average sized kitchen you may want to add between $6,000 - $12,000 depending on the size of the kitchen. You will see that a running total for the 2 lower specification homes has now increased by your nominated amount bringing them up to the equivalent value of the higher specification homes.
Perform this same comparison on all other areas of the home that you can think of. This may include items such as plumbing fixtures, shower screens, ceramic tiling extents, appliances, render vs brickwork just to name a few. When complete you be comparing a fair value of each home on an equal (or close to equal) specification level. By performing this calculation you're able to discover which base price is the best value for money.
Each Display Home is different and each home builder will intentionally try to make it difficult for buyers to compare, however if you take some time and follow this method, you'll be able to establish an accurate guide as to how each builder and display home price compares.
