Regarding your existing property, you could also try to include a clause in the sales contract that allows you to stay in the house for X months after the contract is signed. It is also possible that you would get an amount X (e.g., 1,000 euros rent x 9 months) deducted from the purchase price. How feasible such a sale with this clause is and to what extent a "rent deduction" applies depends on the demand for real estate in your region.
Advantage: You save yourself the hassle of searching for an apartment, a complete interim move, and know the "rent" incurred in the meantime. Furthermore, you can present the sales proceeds to the bank.
Accordingly, you should of course be at a stage in your planning where, upon signing the contract, you immediately secure the land and construction can begin. Be sure to clarify with the bank before the sale how and under what conditions a loan repayment is possible.
That's more or less how I imagined it. In our case, 3 months were fixed because the previous owners didn't need more time. That's why I'm already trying to weigh up in advance how it would be with a new build.
