For 3300 euros, I would expect that the "inspector" from TÜV (or whoever it may be) will spend at least 30 hours on the construction site... I'll take a close look at what you really get for this money. I must admit, I haven't looked at what you get for it. At least this amount is significantly more than what is usually charged by the named associations. Maybe something useful will actually come out of it, but I can't judge that.
My former landlord of my first apartment, who was an expert in building defects, told me when he heard that we were building... a proper inspection takes about 1/4 of the time needed to plan, supervise, etc., a house... In other words: expert = 1/4 of the architect's cost.
For our house, the architect received about 25,000 euros, an expert would then probably have received around 6,000 euros. Why the associations can offer that for 3,000 euros... either less content or something else... or are there also houses that cost only half as much as another "equivalent" house?
It's not about expensive = good for me here, but that price differences often also mean differences in performance.
