Quick side question: Who pays for the labor that goes into the preparations for the “wooden house” = cutting wood, planing, assembling the construction, etc.?
My experience in our building area (so far approx. 150-160 houses) shows that prefab houses are generally somewhat more expensive than solid buildings. Unfortunately, there are no identical houses (and many families also do not really talk openly about prices) where prices can be openly compared.
We stayed with the architect-designed house in solid construction because comparable prefab houses were more expensive.

If apparently no one who wants to build a house is expert enough to compare apples with apples, it is relatively useless to insist that only an expert can build an HRB cheaper than a solid house. Especially when you first have to spend ages defining the criteria for a comparison so that they fit the HRB, while the builder usually prioritizes personal needs over constructively determined ones.

but precisely for that reason, you cannot just claim and write that a wooden frame house is more expensive than a solid construction, or that it should have disadvantages, that is wrong, and if the market for a prefabricated house in wooden construction allows for high prices and a wonderful profit (as Nordannery writes), then these prefabricated house manufacturers are the last ones not to fully exploit such profits, the fuel prices of all suppliers have also risen sharply before the start of the holiday season and it is the same at the hardware store.

Yes! When you design a house according to your wishes and based on HRB it is usually more expensive than solid construction, that may still be subjective but precisely based on your own needs. If HRB can only meet these in very rare cases without restrictions, that relativizes a price advantage in the optimal case if it is not demanded by anyone.

It is sheer mockery that you criticize the lack of comparability but assume (independent) expert knowledge for comparability, which simply cannot exist in this form for the "average" builder.
