Construction report single-family house 1200 €/m²

I don't know if it's different with a new build, but in my renovation, everyone I called was happy to come out immediately, took a look and provided a proper quote. Occasionally, even after requesting, no offer came back despite an on-site appointment, but then it was clear they wouldn't be the ones.

All companies were really good at acquisition... but punctual execution not so much.

So because I am also self-employed, I have full understanding for the work and costs that a [Angebot] entails.

But obtaining 5 [Angebote] from companies that are also suitable for the contract is neither rude nor excessive.

Hampshire forget it. Since Carnival, I've been chasing after the heating companies. The heating season starts in 6 weeks, not even an offer yet. The plumber for the garage roof was a drama from October 2017 to November 2019.

Two houses here under pure self-responsibility like @hegi start of construction spring 2017 end of construction ? One moves in in September, exterior plaster and co missing.

Personally yes of course we know each other. Bargaining? Without an offer. Especially since it is known that I pay without withholding moonlight.

I know of many who only take on bigger orders, like houses, for '22 or later again.

But to accept 5 offers from companies that are also eligible for the contract is neither rude nor excessive.

That depends - after all, it means that four providers have gone through the effort for nothing. In this respect, I find it excessive to request "only" five offers from the outset. Initially, I think two offers are okay, and depending on their variance, then possibly three more for cross-checking (these should fairly be indicated as being more for comparison than for competition).

That depends – after all, it means that four providers have gone through the effort for nothing. In that respect, I find it already too much to request "only" five offers from the start. Initially, I find two offers okay, and depending on their spread, then possibly three more for cross-checking (but to be fair, these should be mentioned as more for comparison than for competition).

Lol

How do you want to determine the price position on the market with only 2 offers?
Statistically, you already have too little data with that.
But to each their own.
Then it is also no surprise why many here always talk about exorbitant prices.

I can't do much with that. In the past, people would just eliminate the best and worst offer at first. I don't think 5 offers - assuming all companies would be considered for the contract - is excessive. Writing and submitting offers is part of the companies' scope of work, just like their actual work. No one can tell me that this isn't factored in. The problem here is rather that the companies have a ton of work and therefore often refuse to even submit an offer. Unfortunately, the ratio has changed. In the past, the one who paid got the work (exaggerated). Today, as a client, you often feel like a petitioner dependent on the goodwill of the craftsmen and have to be happy when a craftsman takes the time. Of course, correct work should be paid accordingly, but with larger items, I would never get the idea to insist on only 1 or 2 offers on my own. A friend of mine recently talked to a contractor. His statement: "It's crazy right now, you raise prices but still get flooded with orders, that he doesn't even know what to do with all the money anymore." This certainly isn't the case in every company, but it says a lot about the situation in the construction industry...
