Land in Sight -> Construction Planning Experiences

Permitted construction: 8 by 12 meters, basement, ground floor, upper floor, 40% roof pitch. Next to it a driveway including garage.

Building height? Two full floors possible? Development plan would be very helpful here. In most federal states it can be accessed online (links not allowed).

Basically, given the budget and the expected conditions, I consider the basement very tight to hardly feasible. Soil survey highly recommended!

due to the development plan it will be difficult to achieve more than 130-140 sqm of living space.

Development plan?

- Wooden house or solid house, prefabricated house or not?

Engage an architect for service phases 1-3 (often possible at a fixed price). Have the house planned. Obtain offers from several companies.

Otherwise, no comparability is possible. Then you can find the company that suits you best, regardless of whether it will be wood or masonry construction.

Also a good exercise:
Go to a model home park, don’t sign anything (!). Collect and learn to read construction service descriptions.

That will be helpful, as annoying as it may seem at first.

All the best!

Also, here’s an exercise:
Go to a model home park, don’t sign anything (!). Collect the construction service descriptions and learn to read them.

But keep in mind (see: wenn Musterhäuser "lügen") not to take model homes at face value. Model home parks are places where home sellers can expect a high visitor frequency of people interested in building a house. That’s why they are attractive locations for house sellers. For example, houses from providers who have withdrawn from the market are not torn down but rented out by the exhibition operator. So the house may not even have been built by the company that sells their houses there. Also, model homes built by the company presented there do not necessarily reflect the current standard and often contain extra features. And: white sheep are rare in house sales; most house salespeople measure their performance in "perjuries per hour."

It is also very important: never enter model homes before you know your own specific plot.

By the way, model home exhibitions are never even remotely a representative cross-section of the market of providers: there are almost only "prefab" houses, and within these almost only of the timber frame panel construction type (almost all providers use the popular misnomer "Holzständerbauweise"), regional providers are generally rare, and those of the stone faction are regularly not represented at all.

I appreciate all inputs. I have already browsed the forum a bit, but I am also happy if you link me the 2-3 most important posts. Everything helps me in the current phase.

You no longer plan to build a house? No answers to the questions could mean that you are not serious about it and therefore no longer receive well-founded answers. I will refrain from answering your second question here in the forum.

Already because of the tax, I would tend to lean more towards buying land. But that doesn't seem to really interest you. Is the land in MUC?
