Realistic cost estimate: Single-family house with unfavorable development location

Which questions would you still find important to include? We are now both pretty much just short of signing.

Questions about what, signing for what: Post #302 ?

Yes, it will be pretty much like in post #302. I can’t tell you which questions, because that falls under the "unknown unknowns." Maybe something like "what happens if the building material prices explode during the process, do we have to bear that?" or "will we get the loan at all without life insurance?". Questions you will be glad to have asked beforehand. And signature for the loan and order confirmation. If the application is approved.

Which questions would you still find important to include?

Well, since everyone has different questions (it also depends on the flow of information, which you have with them, but we don’t), you should ask what’s really pressing for you. Nothing will be and can be risk-free. Some answers might also be unpleasant; you can't avoid that yet, but you still have to sign. I’m thinking of: “what happens if something happens to one of us” or “what if the tiles are no longer available and we have to take more expensive ones?” By the way: are you building with Team Massiv?

Well, since everyone has different questions (it also depends on the flow of information, which you have with them, but we do not), you should ask what is burning under your nails. Nothing will be and can be risk-free. Some answers might also be unpleasant, there is no avoiding it, yet you have to sign.

Speaking of which: are you building with Team Massiv?

Thank you! We are building with a small regional company with direct contact to the boss and a good reputation in the area; the idea was more appealing to us from the start and that's how it came about after comparing offers. I think almost all builders are initially tempted by the pseudo-low prices of the big companies, which often relativize upon closer inspection.

You haven't signed yet and a draftsman/woman is already making plans for you?

Here in the village, this still works with good old arrangement :D if it didn't work out, we would just pay her separately for all previous services.
