For the photovoltaic system, I used the value given to me as an estimate (without storage) by both salespeople at the model house exhibition – I was told it could easily be retrofitted if desired.
I have already helped with 2 terraces. Four years ago, we redid the terrace at my parents’ house, and two years ago, the acquaintance with the €15,000 prefabricated garage bought and renovated a house. We made the terrace there with five people. I know you shouldn’t rely on it, but since not everything has to be finished within two weeks, acquaintances could also help us. By the way, you can’t tell that the terraces I helped with were done DIY.
About Alexa and the like: For God’s sake, that lady wouldn’t get near a window/door opener in 100 years. We don’t need anything like that at all; we can still open doors perfectly well ourselves with a key. What’s really great is the lighting control, heating control, window sensors for the heating system, and of course possible shading.
Pff, just because you have an office job doesn’t mean you have two left hands. My parents have practically done everything on their house themselves since forever. When I was 15, my mother and I together converted the roof truss over the summer holidays from the picture "exposed insulation" to the picture "new teen room" (with laying panels, pulling cables, installing sockets, we even installed a bathroom). Well, that was our daily occupation from morning until evening for 4 weeks, but it turned out really well and we were both very proud.
I am well aware that it will be a lot of work. But these are all things (except for filling and painting) that you can do gradually. Yes, a driveway would be nice, and I don’t want to look at a construction site forever, but having to finance – I don’t know – another €25,000 just to have a "finished" house shouldn’t be necessary.

Because SAP developers are born craftsmen, you think?
