The bank thinks that 220,000 would be doable without any problems, sounds alright at first, I think. Equity about 15,000, so rather slim...
Are the 220 including the 15K equity or would that be on top?
Costs for turnkey about 150,000.
Do you think something is doable for this "money"?
Have you already dealt with the provider, or read through the construction service description? And for which equipment line are the 150K? Although it is advertised as turnkey, for example
painting work inside, wall and floor coverings as well as silicone joints are not included in the scope of services.
These usually add another 10-15K€ on top at this house class.
The earthworks included will probably not be enough. More precise information will only be known after the soil survey. Still, this must be planned for.
Then the other ancillary building costs like supply/disposal services/etc. etc.
Also, the standard is only an energy saving ordinance house without underfloor heating. Kfw55 is extra. Does anyone still want that today?
What about outdoor facilities, as well as carport or garage?
And from a sampling no one comes out without having spent another 10-15K.
Just these points, which I just noticed together, easily add up to 90-105K€; and two-thirds of that are absolutely necessary to move in. And the remaining third is needed so it looks like a house.
oh yes, you also need the plot. Also think about the ancillary purchase costs; but at 30K they don’t weigh that heavily.
Expecting a child in March house construction will of course only be carried out afterwards when the missus goes back to work
You still have some time. Maybe save some more equity. What do you pay in cold rent today?
Otherwise, the only help is to continue dealing with the topic so that in the end you don’t experience any nasty surprises. For example, also read construction diaries of those who have built with SH. That also gives a good insight into what is missing in the calculation.
And don’t let SH pressure you into just signing a work contract.
