Floor plan design experiences - criticism?

- even though you want to sell the house again soon -

Oh, where should I have overlooked that, and why? - surely not just because of the carports, when the area is supposed to be so nice?

Oh, where was I supposed to have overlooked that, and why?

That is somewhat briefly expressed and, as I assume, due to the fact that I mentioned that we do not necessarily build "for eternity" and, if we don't like it, simply move/change again. Maybe in five years we want to travel the world in a motorhome ... or in 30 years we take our last breath in the house ... I don't know. Our situation is different from that of people who plan with children and grandchildren. I seem to have given some forum members the impression that it would only be a transitional home, which in principle ultimately applies to every housebuilder.

I seem to have given some forum members the impression that it would only be a transitional home, which basically applies to every homebuilder in the end.

However, most homebuilders do not want to admit the latter; the average German is a real estate clinger par excellence.

I hope that the motorhome will then be a self-built one, including the planning thread in the forum :cool:

In case anyone is interested: Our sampling will take place tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, provided we test negative on the required "Corona spit test." I really hope so, as we are both vaccinated and had about 4.5 hours of travel time.

If there are any helpful, general tips for the sampling, please do not hesitate to share them here. :) Feel free to also share "your" wrong decisions, if you want to. Everything is welcome. Also happy to indulge in memories; other people's memories are often helpful. :)

Tip for selection:
Form your taste beyond the offer of your provider.
Accept nothing that doesn’t please both of you.
Don’t let yourself be lulled by “That’s how it’s done nowadays” sayings. Later, it won’t be “one” living in your house, but the two of you.

Our situation is different from that of people who are planning with children and grandchildren.

We have children and should I become a grandpa, I have a lot of beautiful scenarios in mind. However, I will not plan my children’s lives nor interfere. They are free people who should and can shape their own future. It’s not foreseeable at all what they want to do (and at the moment whether they want to do anything at all ;)). Therefore, we will not align our life path as a couple with the children – just like you, for whom this question doesn’t even arise.
From this perspective, despite being parents, we think quite similarly to you. The idea of moving completely into a motorhome has evaporated since we have one. It is really great as a change and also great to be home again. Latter would somehow be missed. So a both/and is our solution, not either/or. In the back of my mind, my wife and I quietly have a French chateau with a vineyard. Nothing concrete, but my experience is that things I have visualized eventually do come true, even though there are always dry spells in between.
