Do you have a tendency towards perfectionism when it comes to the house?

That was never an option for me. On the contrary, I have been continuously employed since I was 17 years old. ;-) However, we shouldn’t delve any deeper into this here, unless you come to our open house day, which I have already announced here several times. :)

So, with our house, we achieved 99.x%. It was over 2 years of meticulous planning and then just over a year of the construction phase during which I was on site almost every day for several hours or the whole day. Due to the concrete construction method with exposed concrete, you have to plan accordingly…

I personally am usually on Team Pareto and get along well with that :) But there are things that are (important to me) and there I make sure that they turn out as well as possible. It’s the same with our renovation. Important rooms (and the technology - but not by me) are, for example, planned precisely. We are spending quite a bit of money, so I want the result to be the best possible.

With you, I have honestly sometimes wondered why you are building new at all. Because you had a house, if I remember correctly, right?

Best regards

What is perfect? My best friend bought a truly magnificent existing house which, however, is rather suboptimal for a life with three children and the home-based profession as a graphic designer. His office is now the sauna in the garden shed... but he still wants to move into the pantry. For him, that is perfect - the five of them are enviably relaxed and overjoyed in their house.

... and if I remember correctly, about a four-hour drive from the new place of residence ...

We moved from Baden-Württemberg to Saxony at my request.


It was always clear to me that when I achieved financial freedom, I would move somewhere else. And that it became the Leipzig district is a happy coincidence; I could never have planned it to turn out as great as it has. :)
