Wait with the building application because of the child construction allowance

Of course, you wait (and still look forward to it a little beforehand). But the world talks about expensive rents in metropolitan areas (and the related purchase prices for condominiums), and now we are pumping money exactly there instead of at least partially supporting the influx of young families into the surrounding areas. Completely crazy.

5 people in 130m². I want to see the floor plan discussed here.

As a standard condo. 3 children's rooms 30 sqm, bedroom 15 sqm, open-plan kitchen/living room 50 sqm, the rest bathroom, balcony, etc. Does it always have to be 180 sqm for 5 people?

Well, that's exactly what I just said. As a [ETW] that's possible. But who builds their own house like that?

What is the purpose of this decision? I just can't see what this cap achieves.

The point was to introduce a Baukindergeld without it really costing anything (or having any effect).

Now someone is supposed to shout that the Baukindergeld will be expensive. I would kick their ass .

One can really rule that out now if the media reports are true

120 sqm and the income limit and they call that Baukindergeld? ...I would say it is regulated completely off-target

Making compromises until the project is no longer recognizable. Grand coalition politics at its finest, I'd say. But that's what we wanted.

What does the CSU say about it? Seehofer would make a fool of himself in Bavaria if he lets this pass.

Well, when I spontaneously check Twitter about the Baukindergeld, no one cares about the news. It will simply get lost in the whirlpool of refugee policy.

But who builds their own house nowadays?

Nowadays I hardly believe anyone does. Even a slice of the German terraced house is bigger.
The rule would probably be based on the current average in the existing stock. If they had looked at new buildings of the last 10 years, the result would probably be different. But the political will is obviously to bury the project, so you just pick the right statistics.

Also practical for Söder, because the Bavaria thing practically dies with it. This was linked to the introduction of the nationwide Baukindergeld, right?

I consider the Baukindergeld an economic nonsense anyway, so I'm quite glad it is now becoming a damp squib (just like the great e-car subsidy that no one wants).
But personally a pity, because I had actually counted on the chance to benefit from a subsidy. Could have worked, but that's just how it is. It's all worthless as long as the ink isn't dry.

Even a pane of the German terraced house is bigger.

As much as I otherwise agree with your post – what is that supposed to mean? German terraced house is certainly not very individual due to the system, but they are not particularly small. Not bad either. If they built them here in town, I would have taken one immediately…

define target group? I am not an SPD voter, but they stand for the little guy, right?

The little guy earns under 75k / year, has 2 or more children, and can't afford a huge new build house. They rather go for apartments.

In the cities where public service employees can't afford anything, it can certainly be useful. Although in those cities it will probably act more like a drug for all the junkies (construction boom). That will fuel the prices even more.

I just went to get some bread. Top apartments are currently being built in Brückenvorstadt (that's the name of the district and it looks like that). I also suspect mostly under 120 sqm. That would be more like the target group

You can now pretty much rule that out if the media reports are true.

Making compromises until you no longer recognize the project at all. Grand coalition politics at the highest level, I would say. But we wanted it like that.

The rule would probably be based on the current average of the stock. If they had looked at new builds of the last 10 years, it would probably come out differently. But the political will is obviously to bury the project, so they pick the fitting statistic.

Also practical for Söder, the Bavaria thing basically dies with it. That was tied to the granting of the nationwide [Baukindergeld], right?

I consider [Baukindergeld] an economic nonsense anyway, so I am quite glad that it is now going to be a dud (just like the great electric car subsidy that nobody wants).
But personally unfortunate, because I did hope to have a chance to participate in a subsidy once. Could have worked out, but that's how it is. Nothing is worth anything as long as the ink isn't dry.

Bad luck with the Bayern [Baukindergeld]. Then you don’t even have to introduce it anymore.
