Hello, my husband and I want to build and have received various house catalogs. We are basically still in the initial phase. We have already had two conversations with a construction company. The conversations went great and we had a great impression and a great offer. However, of course, we want to listen to various offers as well as companies (just like other builders do). However, at our second meeting with the construction company, the site manager brought up the topic of a preliminary contract, which we are supposed to sign at the next meeting. The next meeting is supposed to be on Wednesday (so all meetings within one week). That is #not serious, is it? We really had a good impression but this way they are really pushing you...

hi,

I have also inquired, but I am still very far from signing. There are many companies offering similar services, so you don't have to commit to a company that doesn't give you a sense of security. I wouldn't let myself be rushed. There is so much to check and compare that you can't rush it in 3 days.

Regards Bromi

Hello,

Be careful, because you usually cannot get out of a preliminary contract without costs. There is sometimes a 14-day right of withdrawal, but not in all cases. So only sign when it becomes concrete. If he pressures too much, that is unprofessional and it's best to look for another manufacturer.

Best regards, Pit

Thank you very much, I just wrote an email to the construction representative stating that we will not sign. I am curious about his response. However, the offer is very good. We visited another provider today, whose offer we also liked very much. Here, no contract was "forced upon us".
