Yes, we are currently trying to figure it out (rough estimate)
I don’t understand that. A general contractor (GU) is by definition a company that sells you a piece of a house at a clearly agreed fixed price upfront. All extras that you buy afterwards are normally not necessary. What is missing in the GU house is always listed in the construction specification or it is mentioned what is included, and the rest you have to organize or book yourself. What is included in your house price offer you should know inside out with your company, which you have at least already signed with (not every socket, but you should at least know whether the walls upstairs are solid and/or what kinds of floors are inside, etc.).
Since you apparently can’t be bothered to search here:
Costs for the house:
- Land amount 0, since it is already available and paid off
- House price from the GU, the amount of which must have necessarily come up at signing
- 40,000€ ancillary building costs, which include supply lines, sewage, various authority fees, surveying here and there, 2-3 small additional costs, soil report, building surveyor, etc.
- Sum x for additional earthwork costs, depending on what ground conditions you have. With a basement this, of course, becomes an even bigger mixed bag, especially if a waterproof concrete shell ("white tub") suddenly becomes necessary. With 10,000€ you are certainly covered here. You could shift extras after the earthworks and if it gets more expensive, save afterward on extras.
- Extras, which nearly always arise depending on the construction specification. Here are some examples with approximate sizes, although prices fluctuate and may or may not already be included by the GU (scaled to 125 sqm since we have the same number of sqm):
- Underfloor heating 4,000€
- Solar on the roof 4,000€
- Door wing covering front door with fingerprint and a bit of fancy stuff 5,000€
- Additional window costs for more security ++ warm edge 1,500€
- Ventilation system 10,000€
- Wall and floor work (where no tiles are included in the price) 10,000€ (simple execution with floor covering ~20€/sqm)
- Additional electrical costs for a handful of LAN and cable/coax, a hefty bunch more sockets, a few more switches 5,000€
- Fireplace + chimney 10,000€ (+1,500€ pressure monitor if with ventilation system)
- Stairs from clear beech to lacquered and a bit prettier with thicker posts 2,500€+
- Bathroom, depending on mood and desires easily 10,000€. At least one shower door (almost 1,000€). You should clarify here whether and what you want to change at all. Changing from 90x90 to 100x100 shower costs about 250€ extra, a bigger bathtub quickly goes up to 700-1,000€ or into the thousands for corner models
etc...
I still don’t understand how you could have already signed when you don’t even know what the GU wants to take off your hands. That makes absolutely no sense.
