*hust* short night. Children create work and cost money. If they also made money, our discussion would be different and my coffee cup made of gilded diamond. The content above is still true.

A child has two hands, but only one mouth? ;)

I also think that DINKs who can reasonably live off the rate with a similar income are more of an argument against doing it with 5 people. Although personally, I would mainly take the previous lifestyle as a reference, because most people find adjustments in terms of restrictions difficult.

Presumably, we can conclude that the 3000 rate would most likely be affordable for DINKs, in second place come DIDKs, and in last place are DKNI (Double Kids, No Income). :D

As a DINK, I can only confirm that. The restrictions then apply for a longer period of time. We are at 5k net (pretty much 50/50) and 1.3k installment and have also renovated. In the end, I probably could have taken out 30k-40k more to invest a bit more in the garden, terrace, etc. On the other hand, we are now deciding very concretely ourselves what we tackle when (and it will be the terrace railing + roofing + flooring) or whether it will be the elaborate vacation or the special repayment.

And especially this "There is always something to do in the existing property" reserve is completely missing for me.

The OP already has to pay over €2100 in interest alone at the beginning, which is more than €100 higher than your total monthly payment. That’s depressing, at least for me it would be. You actually earn very handsomely and first give a third of your salary to the bank just for lending you money. As your "own investment," you only have the €900 you pay down with. Of course, that ratio shifts more and more in your favor over time.

Then there are probably fairly high additional costs (have you checked how high the property tax would be on the property after the reform?), insurance and cars have to be paid for, and 3 kids cost an average of €365,000 until they turn 18. And suddenly your handsome salary is gone, and you have to figure out how to make ends meet.

When you’re old, you have a house that’s become old again, maybe paid off, maybe not because you had to do another big renovation, and a meager pension, even at maximum pension. When you look back on your life then, you think, for having earned really well, I haven’t really experienced much, where did all my money go!? The answer then is: the bank.

Don’t get me wrong, you can do it, but whether it’s worth it is more than questionable. It wouldn’t be worth it to me.

I had that feeling with the new build but honestly as well. There aren’t any legacy issues, but for most builders money isn’t abundant enough to fulfill all wishes to perfect satisfaction. So some side projects remain unfinished. For quite a few builders, for example, the entire outdoor area is such a project, into which you can pour endless money and work if you want.
