Check the costs for connecting to the house. The providers usually end at the property boundary (transfer pillar, sewage shaft...) and then there is the roof drainage (into the sewer, cistern, infiltration)...
Anyone who tracks/controls their expenses as well as you should also be able to figure out family planning.. We are currently on parental leave with a similar situation.. it’s going great, the costs go down because mom is at home.. Let’s see how the daycare adjustment and return to work will go... In principle, you can plan a lot, then life happens and you have to deal with it... A little kid is definitely something that resets all clocks..
Regarding connection costs: These are calculated for 30m and come directly from the provider. So I assume these are the actual connections to the house, especially since the residential area is currently being developed by the city.
Regarding potential savings during parental leave: Since my fiancée’s commute is very short, there are no savings there. Also, there are no or hardly any other expenses during working hours.
Oh, and one more thing I noticed, you don’t say anything about electricity... Is there a SAT system, network, motion detectors etc... Frugality is good. Bringing the place up to a minimum standard is good for resale value.
Regarding the SAT system and electricity: That’s true, I forgot or omitted that. The SAT system is just nice to have for me/us. We now watch almost everything over the internet (Netflix, media libraries). I forgot to take the extended electrical wiring into account.
@all: Since we have now decided not to proceed with the purchase/construction for the time being (deadline from the city until 03/24), the question arises how we could sensibly invest our equity so that we can build or buy in about 3-4 years.
Is it worth taking out a building savings contract? Especially to secure the low interest rates?
PS: Unless we win the lottery today, then we’ll build
