Construction company wanted in the Stuttgart metropolitan area!

That can definitely be interpreted as an insult. [...] But I am not resentful, just want to mirror to you as an alleged "autist" what can come across to a person with your sentences.

With that you have practically answered that you are not an autist (which is not an insult, but was a question), because interpreting neutral statements as insulting is practically a characteristic of non-autists :)

Assigning some "blue type" (sounds like learned at a seminar "Psychology for the Profession") is also sorting into a drawer. Also that you accuse me of considering the sentences of these people as "Emogedöns" for me is definitely meant derogatorily here.

No, for blue types (and it would be even more so with blue types who are at the same time autists) it is a typical reaction not to perceive Emogedöns (you called it "funny results") as valuable information:

The inquiry then partly leads to funny results like "We simply felt well cared for," "It just fit," or "They felt what we wanted" or "They just hit our taste" or "We were lucky, everything went well with them." That only helps to a limited extent.

If that is not a devaluation: the people give you valuable information, and you say it only helps "to a limited extent." Hey, the people spoke to you — a stranger — about their feelings! (that is meant empathically on their part) — they can't help that this answer is not formatted in a way compatible with your expectations! — they don’t want to disappoint you with it, but simply cannot look inside your head.

As for the assessment (or as you call it, "sorting into a drawer"): you can be sure that every experienced sales consultant makes such an assessment — whether in individual cases according to "color" types, according to temperament theory, according to Myers-Briggs, or otherwise. Trained sales consultants — who by the way are rather rare in house sales — are trained to "pick up" the prospect and "guide" them to the most suitable product (that you tend to react prickly to this led me to classify you as a blue type and ask whether you also have autism). You must consider that sales consultants are engaged as an intermediary position between you and their deliverable products. In providing information for parametric-tabular comparison funnels, sales organizations do not see their task. If you evaluate this as consumer-unfriendly ...

But they have to be forced to do so, if necessary by legal pressure (cf. antitrust authorities and building code (contract) regulations for construction companies). Otherwise, building owners would just get ripped off.

... then that is, I’d say 'neutral' :), "your view of things." If I now read that through your sensitive filter, I would have to think that you see those who refuse the information you desire as delinquents. Just mirrored like that, if you understand ...

If that’s not a disparagement: the people give you valuable information, and you say they "only help to a limited extent".

Why you so vehemently defend the builders in the new development area, I don’t know now... My goal is not to disparage them, I didn’t write that anywhere. How I assess their information (useful or not) has nothing to do with their personality!

Hey, the people talked to you - a stranger - about their feelings! (that is meant empathetically on their part) - they are not to blame that this answer is not formatted compatible with your expectations! - they do not want to disappoint you with it, but simply cannot look inside your head.

I know, it’s clear to me too. My point was to show that polling in new development areas is also not the be-all and end-all. And it doesn’t necessarily have to lead to the goal of finding the suitable provider. That’s what this is about here.

As far as the assessment (or as you call it "sorting into a drawer") is concerned: you can be sure that every experienced sales consultant makes such an assessment - whether in individual cases according to "color" types, temperament theory, Myers-Briggs or otherwise. Trained sales consultants - who by the way are rather rare in home sales - are trained to "pick up" the prospect and to "lead" him to the product most suitable for him.

I already thought that the sales consultants are presented with some psychologically based customer types in their training and thus have an idea how to deal with customers. I agree with you, of course they don’t want to hand out tabular data.

Your sensitive-person magnifying glass

Provoking new users here is fun for you, isn’t it? Enjoy yourself :cool:

if you keep going like this, collecting construction performance specifications and data sheets and trying to make them comparable in spreadsheet programs, there are hundreds of other construction companies who don’t make a living feeding you with information. Then you won’t build a house. Clients who demand the 3.1B certificates for the nails and the COC for the window handles are just annoying and hinder the construction process. Your scattergun request with the detailed description (at least 10 pages) has already put you in this drawer. The only one who can match your request with the company’s possibilities is the salesperson, whom you don’t want to meet. Or do you think the boss does that himself, just for you?

Then you don’t build a house.

That almost sounds like a threat/warning. Easy does it with the young horses. So far, I have successfully collected many construction service descriptions and offers. From that, I form my opinion and calmly decide with whom I want to have in-depth discussions and negotiations.

Building owners who demand the 3.1B certifications for nails and the COC for the window handles only annoy and hinder the construction process.

My opinion. I’m glad that I’m not one of them.

Your bulk inquiry with the detailed description (at least 10 pages)... Or do you think the boss does that himself, just for you?

Where did you get this claim from? Again: please lower the emotional level. I don’t even know where this anger from you and 11fant comes from. That’s at least how I perceive your posts. Personal attacks/snarky remarks are not helpful here.

I am factual and in a good mood, nothing to do with anger. Many have built here, are in the process, or are planning construction. The methods are different, your approach is rare. I wish you much success with the house construction, please keep us updated :)

I really like how you respond, Nida. Others would have snapped right away. The usual approach is to gather information first and then select 2-3 providers to have individual talks with, I assume? I’m happy to keep you updated. I think it’s a nice thing if you appreciate it here.
