House construction too expensive - Stop building?

I always think very conservatively, always for the worst case. That was just an example of how it can start. Of course, many more additional costs will come very quickly. House set 40cm higher for flood protection 50,000€. Filling the ground level of the aforementioned elevation on the plot 40,000€. Interior sample selection 50,000€. Electrician surcharge 60,000€. Sanitary surcharge 40,000€. Painter and floor layer, of course with natural stone Italian marble throughout the entire house 80,000€. Terrace 50,000€, garden filling and planting 25,000€. etc. and so on. With such a small income, you quickly reach your limit.

Hello, please do not insult! Building land is scarce and this view of the cathedral is of course premium.

Did you sink a Benz into your foundation or do you just like getting ripped off?

Well, sorry...
1. The income is still not small and 2. If such additional costs arise, as you listed, then not only was the calculation extremely bad, but also your own budget was forgotten during the selection process.
That is anything but usual

if you find during the sampling that the standard is completely rubbish, of course. Bathroom only white hospital tiles in standard. Rest at extra cost per m2. Doors only cardboard doors in standard. Mini bathtub for children etc.

Please... With which general contractor is that the case? I have already built with Town & Country, which is rather low budget than premium, and even there were plenty of tiles in different color variations to choose from, unless you think that you can only live a decent life with large formats and 60x30 is beneath your dignity.

The provider also said there was a great selection and a lot in the standard. As I said, some people are fine with it. For me, what was offered either wasn’t my taste or just felt way too inferior. How am I supposed to fit into the mini standard bathtub or the 90cm standard shower as an adult weighing 150kg? The necessary XXL bathtub was just as expensive as the necessary 2x2m walk-in shower.
