Defensive offer, or have house prices become so expensive?

100,000€ for man-high L-walls... such nonsense. If you don't have such amounts available, the plot simply remains sloped. No basement, no L-walls. The three children have to quickly hit the football before it rolls away sideways. They'll manage that.

Where it is not needed, it is also cost-neutral because it is simply left out there ;-)

Exactly. That’s why you then build a basement.

A bit about me :) We live in Ba-Wü on the border to Bavaria (Crailsheim) and of course want to build there. I myself grew up in a wooden house, hence the preference for it. Our current income is rather above average with a net household income of about 5,500 per month without special payments. We also have almost 200k in equity, of which we only want to use about 150k. But when a child is there, you can’t count on this income, as one parent will be home for at least 2 years. Currently, we don’t have any children. We will probably have to find a compromise, e.g. only 2 children’s rooms upstairs and when the oldest child is about 10-12, they have to move to a basement room with a light well or something similar. Of course, the basement then has to be better equipped, e.g. with underfloor heating, etc.

The calculation doesn't add up. Underground living space is always more expensive than above-ground living space. Making even a single room habitable is disproportionately expensive. Leave the basement out, instead build 20 sqm more above ground and save the rest of the money.

Of course, I'm terribly projecting from my own experience onto others, sorry in advance, but at 26 without concrete family planning, I would very likely have built something (or not built something) that wouldn't have fit the family that eventually materialized at all. So I wouldn't let myself get stressed. Or will the plot slip away otherwise? Or is the money burning a hole in your pocket?

If the house is on the street and then slopes down to the back, what do you do? You need the L-walls then; €1000 is exaggerated but you can't always do without.

Do you have a sloped plot, or why the basement? That alone already costs 100k.
Otherwise, your plot is comparatively inexpensive. But why not open your own thread for floor plans and calculations? Maybe there’s still more potential for savings.
