correct. The OP seems a bit overwhelmed
:D Fuchur phrased it understandably. We've never dealt with financing before, please forgive me if not everything is immediately familiar.
I don't know the background, so sorry if this question has already been asked. Since you have no equity (112% financing), I wanted to ask what you want to buy/build with €250k?
A 12-year-old single-family house. Our equity is not quite enough for the incidental purchase costs (which amount to just under €30,000; the house itself costs €220,000) and will therefore be used for the outdoor facilities not yet created as well as for the furniture; whatever remains will be split between a special repayment account and a reserve account.
We could probably cover the incidental purchase costs if we were to terminate one of our savings contracts, but our advisor told us that it would be better to keep them due to the good interest rate and that the conditions would not improve much if we painstakingly scrape the money together now.
You mean over 29 years, or what exactly?
The building savings model has the advantage that it is cheaper. But your broker should be able to provide you with the total costs for the respective options in writing or explain them to you.
Exactly, over 29 years you pay significantly more interest on a regular annuity loan than with the building savings combination.
The thing with the building savings combination is that everyone advised us against it, mainly because the advisors/brokers are supposed to earn from it.
What would you say, which option is the most suitable for us?
1. Annuity loan
2. Annuity loan with KFW
3. Building savings combination
