About the 60% and the 20-30%: When we looked at different companies for the house construction, one of them gave us the feedback that as a rule of thumb you should expect 20-30% additional costs based on the contractual construction sum until moving in: So, total construction costs = land + construction contract + 30% of the sum from the construction contract as incidental costs. For us, instead of 30%, it was rather 60% more, among other things due to the hillside location. However, these 60% already include the kitchen and the complete interior lighting. Should we have planned more from the start? Rather no, we had expected budget overruns from the beginning, which would have occurred even with a higher initial budget. But that is also a matter of attitude.The 60% and the 20-30% I don’t understand.
Do you sometimes get annoyed that you didn’t plan more, or were you still able to change everything during the construction? We once had the thread about the different financial possibilities afterward, and we can’t let the topic go either :-(
