Prefabricated house 1980 - Very well maintained condition

If walls are dry I see nothing risky there. This is still how houses are built today.

I think you can confidently name the manufacturer. Maybe some additional information will come up by itself.

Manufacturer:
Fertighaus Weiss

Wall is important, and if there is a basement, is it dry?

According to my grandpa, everything is dry. If there had been anything he noticed, he would have had it fixed.
There is a basement and it is dry.

If you need more information, just let me know.
Thanks so far for your quick replies!

The manufacturer still exists: that is good. Then one can know instead of guess how the house is built - and one has a renovation and remodeling partner who knows the construction like the back of their hand.

Do I understand correctly: the grandpa was also the builder?

If the grandpa has been living there since 1980, he has also "experienced" all possible indoor toxins. If the grandpa is healthy, the house will not be bad ;-)

That will also be our next step: to approach the manufacturer. They still exist and are actually just around the corner from us.

Yes, my grandpa was the builder and has been living in the house since 1980. He is healthy too, apart from the aches and pains you get with age... I assume his broken knee has nothing to do with the house ;-)

I already feel comfortable here in the forum.
Thank you!!

I am not an expert, but that is your grandpa. He hopefully wouldn’t sell you junk. And you know the house and your grandpa has lived in it for 40 years and it is in good condition and the manufacturer still exists. I can hardly imagine better conditions for a purchase. What exactly makes you doubt?

Various statements from the internet make me doubt. I do know: if I google VW Golf problems, I will only see the problems. The same, of course, applies to this house. But despite everything, it gave me a strange feeling; after all, it's a huge investment and needs to be well considered. I will arrange to meet with the manufacturer next week. Regards
