But you have to look at the future. What does the existing house cost and how old are your parents? I don't want to be booed now, but here you should also deal with topics like care, death, and inheritance.

These are definitely issues we need to deal with. My father has severe back pain and is hardly able to help with anything around the house/garden. It certainly won’t get any better. As I said, without us, they won’t be able to live here forever. Although that of course shouldn’t take the decision away from us. My mother is still very fit health-wise, fortunately. Theoretically, we can leave everything as it is here. We DON’T HAVE to change anything. We just want to make it nicer for ourselves and it is up to us how much money we have to invest here. Sure. In a few years, there will surely be things that should/must be done. I’m aware of that... And maybe that shouldn’t be underestimated...

Assuming the need for care arises. Can you manage it financially or does the social welfare fund have access to the house? Then I would consider whether to build an extension ... or officially buy it out ...
