Hello future homeowners,
Yesterday we received the first estimate from our house builder and, as expected, it was quite over the budget we had set.
The offer briefly outlined:
City villa, detached, approx. 155m2.
Price: €224,429.85 (without land & additional construction costs)
So, now my question...
According to the seller, it is not common at Hanlo to grant discounts, but what you apparently do get are "vouchers" for the customization.
However, the calculation already includes the floor coverings we chose, which differ from the construction service description. Of course, there are a few other things to consider, so in itself "vouchers" are okay.
But with these, we probably won't spend much more than the discount we want.
Our stated budget was max. €210,000.00.
What do you think, how much can one still negotiate/get out of this? Aren't 10% or even more common?
We are grateful for help, advice, and tips!
Greetings from Berlin
