Project Description
NEW LAUNCH PROPERTY WITH FREEBIES, DISCOUNTS, REBATES
Many people prefers to buy under construction property mainly due to the freebies or accessories that developers provided free of charge, for any purchase of new launch properties. This is mainly a marketing strategy by the developer to help increase the sales of new launch properties. For purchasers, having their own dream house is something that comes straight out from the fairy tale. Even though some people may opt to invest in subsale property, however, some may choose to buy new launch properties mainly due to the freebies that developers include in marketing their under construction properties.
It is well known that you will get higher affordability when you purchase under construction properties, as it is not only giving you lower entry costs, but also some freebies, discounts, rebates and other exciting things that will keep the interests of the buyers skyrocketing and attract them to immediately secure their place in the booking system.
Normally the freebies that developers offer for under construction properties includes free legal fees as well as subsidized stamp duty. This means that the developer will absorb the legal fees and stamp duty that normally required when you purchase any properties. This kind of marketing strategies ensure easier entry costs for property buyers, as they do not need to come up with as much cash upfront to buy any properties.
Some of the developers that grant freebies in the form of interior furnishing and household items such as kitchen cabinets, air-conditioners or automatic gate system. This would help make the property investment much more interesting because it would help investors save on furnishing costs, if the properties come with partial furnishing. Also, developers would be able to get bulk discounts from buying these furnishing items as well as save some installation costs, when these installations are done during construction phase of the properties.
Other marketing strategies focused mainly on rebates. These rebates are often being given by the developers in the form of the deduction against the 10% down payment that the house buyers normally required to make when purchasing a house. The rebates however will fluctuate from 3% up to 10% where the full 10% means that the buyers are excluded from paying the down payment and they just need to be qualified for balance of 90% of the housing loan.
In term of rewards, it might be from both categories either in the form of monetary and non-monetary. There are some promotions that provides the first 20 people to purchase the unit and signed the SPA, will receive additional car park lots. Some offers free subsidy of legal fees for first 50 customers. Another type of rewards include selling off loan reject units at old price before price increase of the properties.
Below we look at some of the rewards example that are normally being promoted by the under construction developers.
