If you have the money, you go to the architect, yes... if not, you take a ready-made floor plan from the developer.
But above all, you should deal with your budget before you start, even if you take pen and paper yourself. Because you quickly move away from the architect again ;)
I therefore find the comparison with a car inspection incorrect. Rather, you would have to take the purchase of a new car here. Only very few allow themselves a completely individual design all the way to the adjustment of the bodywork, etc.
PS:
But even with a standard floor plan of one of the most sold/built houses in Germany, the Flair 152 RE, I have already found some "traps" before the start of the interior fittings, which I would not do the same way next time ;)
If you equate an architect with free planning, then you can certainly see it that way.
But an architect does much more than just HOAI III - not for nothing are there 9 phases.
I think especially for a layperson, an architect definitely makes sense - even if you rely on a ready-made plan.
Of course, you can now say - I take a prefab house, that is much easier.
But especially for a layperson, in my opinion, a prefab house is actually the more difficult solution than an architect.
Because the prefab house company is only interested in the effective construction of the house.
You as a layperson have to piece together and find out all the rest by yourself.
There are definitely architects with whom you can use ready-made floor plans, and a good architect recoups his salary on his own.
In other words:
I would not automatically define an architect as expensive and luxury now.
A house built with an architect can also ultimately be cheaper and better in terms of price/performance than an off-the-shelf house.
