So I can only report on two consultation meetings, with the second one already being a proper planning meeting at Haas... The first meeting was spontaneous during the model house visit in Poing. Nevertheless, we already stated concrete wishes, ideas, and above all our budget for the finished house. The development plan of our plot was also included. On this basis, the consultant wanted to create a floor plan and an offer. Two weeks later, the appointment to receive his offer took place... What can I say: the consultant had not prepared at all! A large part of our wishes was not taken into account; it was only scribbled in during the conversation using pre-made prefabricated house floor plans from the catalog. Several variants were scribbled on top of each other in the same floor plan... Absolutely no overview was possible anymore. :-( The big shock came with the offer! Our budget was not considered at all! It’s nice that the consultant chose a generous floor plan (living area was still only 135-140 sqm), but our budget was already reached with the shell construction! The interior finishing would be entirely own work and over budget. Then, as a brief addition at the end, it was mentioned that the floor slabs were not yet included in the offer. About €20,000 would be added to the offer price... O-o Please?! Prefabricated house companies are actually only affordable if you can take a house offered by them in the catalog one-to-one. If you have an unusual plot (we have a semi-detached house with maximum external dimensions of 10m x 14m, so single-family house size), there is no pre-made version, and every small change quickly becomes expensive! So I can only report back after obtaining further offers from local solid house builders: our house will now be built by local construction companies. Far below our budget although all other wishes (almost 200 sqm living space, fireplace, photovoltaic system, air heat pump, KfW 55, noise protection measures, central ventilation system, high-quality floors, etc.) are considered! We are now getting our completely individually planned house at our desired price without compromises. Similar experience with Aurorahaus... There we would have paid 1/3 more than now for comparable house equipment.
