Strategy meeting house purchase or "How far should I go?"

In the opinion of most experts, we should have already seen several interest rate cuts by now.

No. All experts predicted rate cuts from the end of Q2 or rather from Q3. And the end of Q2 fits quite well for the ECB.
But: Nothing has changed about that, although the number of rate cuts has been revised downward.

A 6% forecast was – as seen by all experts and also by us here in the forum – complete nonsense, just like most of your forecasts and assessments.

It is unlikely but not impossible that the municipality will exercise its right of first refusal. It is more likely that a beneficiary listed in the land register will exercise their right of first refusal. As I said, it is not listed there for no reason.

The municipality can only purchase if there is a municipal council resolution or if the house is located in a designated redevelopment area.

Well, I'm curious about that. It will probably take a few months until a sale is settled. Unfortunately, the realtor has not yet gotten back to us. So we don't know whether the offer caused the seller a heart attack or a laughing fit.

You have 2 months to exercise the right of first refusal. However, this is after the 2-week withdrawal period of your own financing.
