Payment plan set up strangely?

Attitudes can be so different.

We are currently building with established local craft companies that know each other very well and have already completed some outstanding projects together. They receive monthly progress payments based on performance. With the carpenter, the services are not immediately visible; the walls are built in the workshop and then delivered and erected on the construction site. So we also pay for walls that we cannot yet see on the property. In return, none of the craftsmen demanded any security as to whether we can pay the contract.

This is neither risk- nor cost-optimized. Everyone is "keen" on the project. Many details are exceptional potential future references for the craft companies. On the construction site, every employee is in a great mood. The identification with what is being created is strong. That counts for us because this means the likelihood is very high that our house will be exceptionally good. That is our goal.

In the end, it is your decision and your risk.

Hoihoi,
Are the surveying costs also hidden somewhere, or are they paid separately? Can you read anything from it?

Surveying costs are to be borne by the builder

Hi there, thanks for the quick reply. So it is usually normal to still receive an invoice.

Hi linor87,

I believe we are about to build a house with the same developer. The payment schedule looks very familiar to us.
Have you already started building? Has everything worked out well so far? I would like to exchange some thoughts.

Thanks for the feedback.

Hey hey,
That would be something.
Where are you from?

We are in the planning stage. Should start soon.
