Basically correct; our basement has a ceiling height of 2.35m with the finished floor and underfloor heating everywhere, so it is virtually usable as living space. However, lighting only through light wells.One can also consider whether it needs to be 300 sqm including the basement.
We are finishing the basement immediately, inconvenient if things are already in the basement (inevitable), but plaster, paint, or tiles are missing.Regarding the top salaries for lawyers, one must keep in mind that the 140k p.a. is only possible with 60-hour weeks. That corresponds to a salary of about 90k with "normal" working hours. So everything is relative
I basically think electromobility is great! However, that does not mean I ignore any energy standards in construction!
On the actual topic:
Unfortunately, we are not that far yet to say much about the civil engineering work. The plot is definitely perfectly level.
Regarding the construction costs, I feel a bit different when I hear that we apparently have to add another good 100k on top of the generous 570k.
Based on our details, it is already clear that we have to finance at least 500k.
Actually, we had planned to initially limit the outdoor facilities to the bare essentials. The same applies, for example, to the basement expansion.
So if we really want to build at the end of 2018, our project probably won’t happen... 670k is not feasible.
You could save on the garage... maybe do it later. If the cars are parked outside, the neighbors can better admire the hopefully high-priced premium brand[emoji6]Regarding the top salaries for lawyers, you have to keep in mind that the 140k p.a. is only possible with 60-hour weeks.

To the actual topic:
Unfortunately, we are not that far along yet to be able to say much about the civil engineering work. The plot is level.
As far as construction costs go, I feel a bit different now when I hear that on top of the apparently generous 570k, we have to add a good 100k more.
From our information, it is already clear that we have to finance at least 500k.

In our case, solid construction Poroton without ETICS, to KfW 70 standard with air-water heat pump, KNX electrical, whirlpool, decent tile quality, parquet everywhere, and all plastering and painting work included.. But beware: depending on the demands for KNX or interior finishing, you can significantly increase the expenses here. For example, we are having 190 m2 of parquet laid, which you can buy for 35€/m2, 70€/m2 or 120€/m2 or even more euros.... A simple KNX system starts at 5000€, with no upper limit. And since we are already talking about electrical work: there is no problem buying lamps including installation for 20,000 euros for 150 m2 of living space....Now I really wonder what the flat-rate construction costs of 1800-2000€ are still worth...
You could save on the garage... maybe do it later. If the cars are parked outside, the neighbors can also better admire the hopefully high-priced premium brand[emoji6] Aside from that, 2 prefabricated concrete garages would be available for less than half the price...
Without a basement you should indeed be fine....Unfortunately, you're hitting the mark exactly because that's where the 100k that apparently we're missing is. I have to come clean and admit that a model from Zuffenhausen would be pretty sadly left out in the rain there (I'll leave the Golf out of this for now, that one might manage it...)
Whether there will actually be a basement remains to be seen (the neighbors had quite a few conditions, which apparently were relatively costly). If the corresponding costs really get out of hand, we'll drop it. Then we should probably be able to manage financially with the 200m2 as long as we hold back on the outdoor facilities for now. What do you think?
