Could you also explain why you see this house as more suitable for us?
Oh, the house model was more a concrete example for a more suitable size. Actually, I see you with your needs more in a bungalow or one-and-a-half-story house than in a villa instead. Even more, I recommend you to inform yourself here with the keyword "Lieblingsheinz" about the joys other builders had with it (even if Gabriele was probably the only one who vented her anger by building a chicken coop).
I understand that you are dealing with houses, but number 1 should really be an active / "aggressive" search for land. Especially if you are rooted in Berlin / surrounding area where you want to go. Tap into everything possible. I mean, sure you have to know roughly where the prices for a house lie, but without land, the house won’t work.
I currently also have 3 inquiries on concrete offers open, which we still want to look at, but to clarify the budget with the financial advisor we also need an overview of what the construction would cost.
Yes exactly, use all Barthel tips. "Inquiries on concrete offers" sounds, however, like "buying
on the market" - but I always emphasize that you find better
before/next to the market. "First to the financial advisor" is
normally wise, but we are not living in normal times right now. Finding the land here is the bigger bottleneck than clarifying the financing.
Men and basements ... that was an endless topic for us as well and I will certainly have to listen until the end of my days that the basement is sorely missed. We are building a craft garage for my husband.
Well, for basements you need a real slope *LOL* ... and a garage for the workbench (with swinging door and Pirelli calendar) is a recommendation that (with the side entrance sink) belongs right at the top of every builder’s poetry album :-)
