Hello,

I am new here and ask for your understanding if my question seems basic. I have already tried to find an answer in your previous posts but was not successful.

Now to my question:
Apparently, there are prefab house companies that offer the selection of finishes BEFORE signing the purchase contract. Does anyone here know of such a company? This would be a good reason for me to choose that prefab house company, as it would help me better estimate the costs for the new house.

Thanks in advance for your time and best regards, Pinkiponk

The concept of a standard product is a bit tricky. As @Nordlys once said, “The water coming out of my Ideal Standard shower is the same as from a very expensive brand.”

That’s something to keep in mind.

Oh dear, I suspected this. To be honest, I’m not proud of it, but when so much hard-earned money is involved, I tend to be stubborn. Fortunately, I have a husband who is loved by all salespeople and agents; he’s very likable and manages to smooth things over without costing us anything extra.

I would really like to “buy immediately” if I had a basis for making a decision. But the homebuilding companies simply don’t provide that. When every detail is guarded like a state secret, it’s not my fault the process takes so long. I had even planned for us to sign the purchase contract four weeks after the initial meeting … which could have worked with more transparency and openness from the builder’s side.

Yes, that is true, and I will keep it in mind.

We had a preliminary selection appointment with Schwörerhaus. Although it was rather basic, it helped us decide which doors, tiles, and additional features we wanted beyond the standard options.
Beforehand, we had already finalized details such as the fireplace, window sizes and positions, floor plan, and shower area.

In addition, we chose a large double bathtub.

Listelie and mosaic

Front door side panel, self-closing with drill protection.

Different air vents

Tiles throughout the entire ground floor.

There are enough electrical outlets.

That’s the general overview.

We were able to sample options at Dennert in advance, and all prices were known from the very beginning. By the way, in my opinion, they are also the only company that genuinely delivers almost prefabricated houses.
