Financing: How much did your house cost?

I absolutely agree with you. However, it does make sense for people to realize that very few have built a house and purchased the land with a total budget of 300,000 euros. My plot cost about 160,000 euros -> So 300,000 euros + 160,000 euros was the total. If the plot had only cost 50,000 euros, the house would probably have ended up at 350,000 - 400,000 euros,...

With the current land prices, it is also better to just compare the house costs a bit ... That varies by 10 km difference by sometimes 100-400 euros per m2

Your land prices are brilliant. Here you get something for your hard-earned money, same goes for the house. Great features!!!!!

Here with us, you come up empty in comparison. Colleagues are almost jealous if someone has a 500 sqm spot like mine, which already costs double in my relatively cheap area (correction: cost, prices are skyrocketing here too). One town over it’s three times as much, and heading towards Düsseldorf it gets insanely expensive.

PS: Included in every bit, so all costs from connections through land, notary to mailbox and access road. Moving. Kitchen installation. Interim furniture storage and so on. So all costs that the house construction directly or indirectly caused.

370T (about 10T are still missing in the garden, let's leave those out).
135 sqm
480 cubic meters
Results in:
2,740 / sqm (which is not bad at all for local conditions)
770 / cubic meter

Remaining plots in the previous new development area would have been available for €35/m². However, we did not like the surrounding buildings. Now it looks like this:
