Take a look at the thread by :
If I understood correctly, it has already been agreed that both want to build with a basement. Although we will see whether this still applies after the neighbor’s financing discussions – the worst case is when (see the Goalkeeper thread) the house builder who starts earlier builds without a basement and the house builder who starts later builds with a basement. I also fear that I have correctly understood that you do not want to hire a joint planner. In my opinion, however, that would be the best chance to coordinate the building process as well as possible. The houses really only fit together with the same roof pitch if they also have the same "house depth," and the same front and back ends as well as the same heights. Just try searching here with "11ant" and "duplex" or "semi-detached house," I have written all of this several times in detail (and always with the conclusion: the best option is a joint planner – which by the way does not mean that the houses have to be built as identical twins).
My great concern is that I read from the one-year difference in construction start that you and the neighbors have progressed very differently – meaning that what you currently have in mind is already quite close to what you will actually do (and with the neighbors, the plans are not yet so mature and may still change). But even then, the risks can be minimized if you have a joint planner. The expected additional effort due to the more complicated technical process compared to building simultaneously has already been explained here. On the latest pages from , you can read about a particular nightmare: the neighbor who starts building later wants to lift loads with his crane over the already standing neighboring houses.
