Beware of hidden costs

Remember that if something is too good to be true, it probably is! It is wiser to take precautionary measures and look out for hidden costs or variation orders.

Bad actors might initially lure you into signing a low-cost package; then… jack up prices by surfacing excluded items during the renovation e.g. omission of costs such as dismantling, manpower, and, additional materials etc.

‍So… when should you go for Renovation Packages?

✔ If your priority is to move in at the lowest cost possible

Renovation packages often only provide homeowners with the essentials to help them move in at a relatively low cost. So… don’t expect fancy designs or top-notch materials.

✔ If you have simple needs and are okay with a one-size-fits-all solution

As mentioned, renovation packages prices are kept low due to bulk purchases from suppliers. This means that the items provided are ‘one-size-fits-all.’ In some cases, making slight variations can cost above market rate. e.g. topping up $2k-$3k if your actual kitchen length varies from what is quoted in the package.
