Construction costs for a 180 sqm single-family house

It is not serious to compare sofas and retail with house construction, that is something we can certainly agree on.

from on the go

Comparing buying furniture and building a house is indeed absolutely impossible. And if they justify a 15% discount with synergy effects because they are building 2 other houses in the development, I would then ask how inefficient they must otherwise operate to "waste" 70 k€. For the 70 k€ I would almost take half a year of unpaid vacation myself and personally pick up all the workers and the material etc.

Instead of just criticizing my example, you could also suggest a better comparison. Furthermore, I wrote:

In order to maintain credibility, it was then said, for example: oh yes, in that construction area we still have 2 more projects, there’s already 15% because of synergies..

I mean, you can read from that that I didn’t take the explanation at face value. Nevertheless, that is completely normal business conduct. In the industry I work in, it is also perfectly normal to initially try to sell plants with a 50% margin. When you realize that the customer has a capable purchasing department, you might reduce the price by 25%. You always have a second chance. Why should it be different in the construction industry?

Sorry - I am currently busy with our private renovation; so I only look for irregularities, like the moderated area in the forum. That’s why I just read your request.

Regarding the special feature garage, I need the section in order to provide you with a somewhat reliable estimate.

Hello Bauexperte,

the garage has a width of 6.5m, a length of 9.0m, and a height of 2.4m.
Thank you.

Because the competition, at least with us, is much greater!?!
And if you submit an offer that is already 70k€ more expensive for a comparable service, you quickly fall out compared to realistic offers.
With special machines, for which there may be few or no alternatives, it can be quite different.

That is not enough; I need the cross-section since the garage is partially built into the house. Rhineland greetings
