Build a terraced end house with an additional unit (GÜ) on your own

would team up with the others

can't be true!

One and a half meters of fill

That would be crazy. You just need to remove the topsoil (which has to go anyway) and you’re at basement level. The basement can now only cost half as much. I would get some quotes, even without my general contractor.

I had already obtained quotes for the basement before signing the contract - besides, you always have to consider the follow-up costs in the basement like screed, floor coverings, water/sewage, electricity, etc. We will calculate it once the exact heights are determined. The pure basement without excavation is 44k with our general contractor - estimated costs for foundation and materials around 20k.

What I do wonder here, however, is why the municipality is not obliged to inform someone about the significantly higher street before the sale? There was never any mention that such differences exist. I have now learned from the site manager that there is probably a height difference of 1.50m on our plot. Can't the municipality be held responsible for that?

There are plans that your general contractor should read.

There were no plans with height specifications provided to us before the purchase.
