Is a 180 sqm house feasible for 300,000 EUR?

that's exactly how I see it right now. As far as I am informed, finding a plot of land will be the most difficult part and alone will probably take about a year at first. Until everything is clarified and the building permit is granted, many months will also pass.

So we will have some time to save up equity. The personal contribution during the finishing phase also counts as equity. I think that in total we can save up around 25k.

Is it really true that solid construction is no longer the most expensive? As I said, timber frame construction is okay, Okal Haus, Allkauf Haus, Elk or Fingerhut. We visited all of them and I knocked and shouted a lot. That was definitely not as flimsy as the simple drywall in the upper floor of this Town & Country house.

It never was. On the contrary: by now, a prefabricated house can also be made somewhat cheaper, so it evens out a bit in the single-family house sector. Since some time will pass, take advantage of the time to save. However, as a self-employed person (ahem, do you even get that much money?), I would be cautious with planning EL...

If Ytong, then also on the upper floor.

But you do know that Ytong is not exactly the first choice for sound insulation.

Yes, I mean drywall. It was like I knocked on the wall and the plates rattled on the other side. No, I don't want that. If Ytong, then also on the upper floor.

At Town & Country, it depends on the house type whether the walls upstairs are solid or not. The Flair 152RE, for example, has solid walls on the upper floor... I believe that all houses with 2 full stories are completely solid accordingly (except for partition walls in the bathrooms).

No, the Town & Country consultant told us that the upper floor is always drywall. Also with the Domizil and Flair – both around 180 sqm.

Yep, that was also the experience we had live at Town & Country.

All good, I've been in business for 12 years already. But we are who we are, got it?

No, the Town & Country consultant told us that the upper floor is always made of drywall. Also with the Domizil and Flair - both around 180sqm.

So then that's a special case of your local franchisee. Our upper floor definitely has solid walls... I think I read in the construction specification about the 2 full stories, but I'm not entirely sure. If I remember, I can check tomorrow what exactly it says. That's a general specification that basically applies to all Town & Country builders. But it could also be that Town & Country doesn't have houses over 180sqm and 2 full stories... I don't know offhand.
