We are currently gathering information everywhere about building a house and I would like your opinion on the financing.
About us: we are 30 & 35 years old, both in public service and have a combined net income of 4,200 (which will increase over the years due to advancement steps). We have the opportunity to get a plot of land for 60,000 and build there. An offer from the construction company is available: 349,000 (including the land), additional construction costs of 25,000 would be covered by savings. There is not much more equity though. In initial talks with banks and advisors, we have come up with a model that would cost us about 1,400€ per month in payments. However, that was calculated only for the 350,000. We were told to add another 20,000 for outdoor facilities on top. (We want to do a lot of this work ourselves)
What do you think? Does this all sound reasonable/doable?
