So what? Are rental apartments fundamentally more dangerous? I don't think so.

And yet, it's definitely a matter of taste. We were willing to make many compromises when searching for a house, but we wouldn't have been willing to make this one. Of course, there are worse things, but with this argument I would only consider a rental apartment and not ownership. Our last rental apartment was, for example, very nice in itself, but located on a busy main road (with a garden area at the back). Getting in and out with the kids and making it to the front door was a challenge. Fine for renting for a while, but we would never have considered buying it. And yes, kids grow up, but that takes time. And shopping and dealing with the dog don't suddenly become easier just because the kids can finally walk on their own. So, as I said, for us a no-go, but that’s something everyone has to decide for themselves!

Thanks again very much for your answers!

It may possibly have been resolved already. For us, only the terraced house was really an option and we were basically assured that the reservation had taken place. But since there are two people in sales and obviously no communication is happening, another colleague with other interested parties with an on-site appointment got the preference for the reservation. It was an unfortunate situation. But what can you do. According to the salesperson, they might also pull out by tomorrow because nothing has been clarified here yet. We'll see...

As I have now also learned, there is no real division of the property, but rather a division according to WEG law with special usage rights. Does that need to be taken into account in the price? I would have spontaneously said that a terraced house with, for example, 200 sqm of land should be worth more than a house that stands on the same land but whose outdoor facilities are "only" registered with special usage rights in the land register? Maybe this is also a mistake in thinking ..?

Is common with terraced houses with mini plots. Does not change the price at all. Dividing into I don’t know how many individual plots is simply not practical due to the size (additional costs) or even prohibited (minimum size for division).

Not here in NRW.

Since it will be a division according to WEG, you have all the disadvantages that may arise from the declaration of division. In a condominium (which is nothing else but the house), you do not own the load-bearing walls, the front doors, the windows, etc., and for measures on the house, the community must partly decide. The declaration of division is extremely important.
This is not my case at all...

We had such a right of use according to the [WEG] for decades. Land sole special right of use, which in practice is no different from ownership. House, we didn’t have to ask anyone about doors, windows, painting the roof overhang, etc. But when once a sewage pipe, which belonged to all four of us, was defective and water came from the toilet and on 12/26 the flushing truck came and then the camera found the damage, etc., there was trouble because two of the four didn’t want to participate in the costs. Well, we had clean contracts and declarations of division, so that with the help of a lawyer I was able to enforce payment by 4. Only, that’s annoying. You always have idiots in such a group, know-it-alls, penny-pinchers, constantly broke... better is §1 everyone has theirs. Karsten

In small WEGs, it is quite often the case that after an initial phase they self-manage and then they save nothing. That comes back to bite them bitterly. Besides, you need a full house for every structural change when voting. One member without money or willing to disagree - a heavy handicap. Karsten is seriously right!
