Is the construction description for the apartment with floors okay as it is?

Hello everyone,

we are considering buying a ground floor apartment from the developer,
The real estate agent sent me this [Bauleistungs Beschreibung].
It reads detailed and good to me. Is that really the case?

Is it common to pay a reservation fee of 5000€?

Best regards

Jasmin

It's too small on my phone to read everything.

But regarding the reservation fee - payment to the broker - I can say something directly.
- Standard reservation fees (in the terms and conditions or pre-formulated contracts) are inadmissible according to the Federal Court of Justice
- Reservation fees that the customer cannot get back are inadmissible
- Individual agreements are possible but subject to strict conditions
- In practice, reservation fees are therefore very rare nowadays
- If the reservation fee request comes from the seller/developer, notarization is required

I have already researched that as well by now….

So far, the contact has been very positive, but this move makes me a bit unsure now. Of course, I would like to have the apartment and next week is the appointment at the bank to sign the financing agreement. The processing will then take a few more days, and I won’t make a definite commitment until that is finalized.

Construction service description for an apartment, is that okay?

And if not? Please specify your concrete questions. Then you will gladly receive professional assessments here. Keep in mind: a developer project is not a wish concert, the construction service description is not a "negotiation basis," but "take it or leave it." You can buy the apartment or not, but nobody will make special exceptions for you.

I don't want any special treatment.

I have not seen any construction description before, to me it all sounds detailed and good.

Whether something is missing, whether I should ask further questions or something similar, I unfortunately cannot judge. Therefore, here is my question.

I have not seen a construction description before, to me it all sounds detailed and good.

I know some from the single-family house sector and skimmed through. Reads normal. But I am not familiar with sound insulation and co-ownership in multi-family houses. What can get expensive: different bathroom design, larger/more comfortable tub, two-way switches and additional sockets. In the kitchen, for example, the 8 include the appliances. In the bathroom, corner moldings are often upgraded, fixtures in the shower and so on. Floor coverings are good too…
