Is new garden landscaping tax deductible?

It was not like that with us. We saved a lot of money by hiring externally, among other things because the landscaper passed the materials on to us with his price advantage. But everyone has to calculate that for themselves.

Where does he shop that it makes such a big difference? I get the same prices as any company... If you buy at the DIY store but at the building materials supplier?

The limit of €20,000 is primarily intended to counteract undeclared work in the field of domestic care (mainly from Eastern Europe).

I believe very few people outsource the outdoor area in a tax-optimized way.

Some enjoy the garden,
some do it piece by piece on their own to save money,
others want nothing to do with it, fully finance the landscape gardener as long as it gets done

Has anyone of you successfully applied the labor costs to the new construction? I have already read that it does not apply to new construction. However, it is disputed when it is considered new construction and when it is not new construction?

It's about the household. Not moved in yet - no household. This has been ruled by the court, there is nothing to dispute.

Therefore, the different amounts as well. It was never intended for the new establishment of "postponed" new construction measures, but for repairs and maintenance. That the initial paving or initial installation is subsidized at all was not the case for many FA a few years ago. However, it is now established case law that everything from move-in counts as modernization.

I don’t know, but it’s probably the quantities he buys. The labor costs were also very low, as I said, overall it was worth it.
