This is simply a mathematical question - whether it's an old building, new construction, or renovation. How long does your entire repayment take, and what is your individual risk tolerance for a higher interest rate in the follow-up financing? He could have easily calculated for you up to which interest rate level 15 or 20 years would offer an advantage. In other words - if the interest rate after 10 years is 5% or higher, your bet probably didn't pay off. If the interest rate in 10 years for another 10 years is below the rates of your current 20-year financing, you have paid extra and must consider the higher interest rate of the first 10 years as an insurance premium. Then you cancel, refinance for 10 years, and then have better conditions.

Calculate it yourself, using the advisor's data. You cannot be generally advised here - except to ask yourself about your personal risk tolerance.

Thank you BackSteinGotik,

his argument was along the lines of: If I finalize the financing now and there are delays during construction, then I lose repayment time and the remaining debt will accordingly be higher. From when does the 10-year term start? In my case: If I were to sign the purchase contract this month and the apartment is completed next May, do the 10 years start from this month or from next year? The actual payment will probably only be triggered next year. Maybe these questions are totally stupid... Sorry for that.

Is there a good website or recommended books to get a better start? What does a solid financing look like? What are the parameters for deciding the repayment rate (e.g., 2% vs. 3% repayment).

Best regards

There is the so-called provision period in the loan agreement. This regulates until when the loan should be fully drawn. If something has not been drawn by then (for example, because the construction takes longer), higher interest rates are usually paid than if the amount has already been disbursed.

The provision period and the interest rate for undrawn loans can basically be negotiated, as can repayment changes; these are soft factors alongside the bare interest rate of the loan.

Hello everyone,

I have now taken care of my own calculation and, in my opinion, calculated the maximum cold rent I could pay for an apartment over a period of 10 years. To simplify the calculation, I did not assume any increase in the value of the property and opportunity costs of the invested capital of 5%. Feedback is welcome. It is also clear: if I ask this question in a stock forum, parameters will probably be set that make a property look worse. Here in this forum, probably the other way around. :) In the end, I have to decide for myself which parameters are realistic for me (with my own bias ;))

Total costs (including additional costs and underground parking space) = 664,808 euros
Equity invested = 75,000 euros
________________________________________________
Loan amount 389,808 euros
Interest (10 years term) = 0.95% (with Dr. Klein calculator)
Repayment 3%

__________________________________________________
Costs over 10 years
Interest costs = 30,591.77 euros
Purchase incidental costs = 30,408 euros
Reserves (1% of purchase price) = 41,000 euros
Opportunity costs (5% of 75,000 euros over 10 years) = 47,000 euros
_________________________________________________
Total = 148,999.77 euros

Possible cold rent = 149,000 euros / 120 months = 1,240 euros / month

What do you think of the calculation? Any major errors? The most debatable points are certainly the reserves and opportunity costs.

Total costs amount to 464,808 euros. It was a typo. :)

No one has an opinion on this? Did I overlook something? Is the calculation method correct?
