KFW 461 - Complete renovation to energy-efficient house - Residential units

But then definitely not with a floor structure of 40. Or do you already have room height over 2.35m? I needed a floor structure of 20cm for 55 - and that with PUR insulation.

Again :) 40 (EE) was just an example. I was really only interested in whether the subsidies can be multiplied by the factor 2 or 3.

What will be realistic in the end remains to be seen.

That was simply answered with "yes" as well ;)

That's true ;)

I've been dealing with the whole construction/renovation thing for a while now. Step by step, you approach the goal, just normally I think. The step this week was the appointment with the energy consultant. And with the idea of a complete renovation to an efficiency house (and the resulting funding for 2 or even 3 residential units), completely new perspectives open up again. Then the number games start, you do rough calculations and estimates, think in this and that direction, etc. Overall, you are initially quite overwhelmed by all the information. Now everything will be sorted out and then we'll see.

Trying to achieve KfW 40 (EE) in existing buildings is a challenge even without considering the costs. First for the planner, then for the trades, and ultimately for the wallet.
In my opinion, it makes more sense to aim for KfW 70 EE with an additional individual renovation roadmap.
The additional costs for the isfp, if planning is done anyway, are negligible, and you receive an extra 5% subsidy on top of the 40% for 70 EE. Heating technology can be separately subsidized with 45% (otherwise 35%) when switching from oil, regardless of the KfW standard, plus 5% with the isfp.

The significantly higher subsidies for renovations in existing buildings compared to new construction are absolutely justified. Every new building, no matter how efficient, initially causes additional emissions and resource demand. Renovation, on the other hand, reduces actual emissions and resource use is generally also lower than in new construction.

Is there any news here? I would be very interested :)

461 subsidy was applied for and approved (for 40 EE with 3 residential units). As wrote in . Currently still in planning. Start is spring '23. As of now, it will result in 55 EE with 3 residential units.
