Good morning everyone,
since I haven’t been online for a few weeks and, due to private matters (engagement, vacation, and so on), neglected the forum a bit, here are the latest updates on the current status.
In another thread, I already mentioned that my fiancée and I each took out two home savings contracts at the beginning of the year, which could possibly be used as TA loans.
Whether this will actually happen or not will only become clear in 2-3 years (depending on the interest rate situation). Nevertheless, I believe it was a good decision to secure the favorable interest rate from the beginning of the year.
Furthermore, the property search also progressed.
After reviewing the new development area being developed in the city and the plots, we were initially unsure. Either too small or too big. As I see it, this is always a cost/benefit consideration.
In addition, the price per square meter was increased again, which we had expected but, of course, is not exactly advantageous.
So the search continued, and by chance, we found a gap in the village that, at about 760m², is neither too small nor too big (shape almost square). There, we weighed the pros and cons compared to the other development area.
After extensive communication with the city, we looked at the development plan. We thought about whether and how our house could best be realized on this plot.
A building inquiry followed, and lo and behold, it is now allowed to build outside the building lines and in the intended style according to our wishes.
The purchase is now imminent, and we can also pay for the plot with our own funds.
So now it goes on towards our own home… and the next questions will certainly come.
