... Are builders sufficiently motivated and do they work well and reliably due to the construction boom, or are they rather somewhat careless or overworked because of the many (potential) customers? In other words, how do you currently assess your position and negotiating power as a prefabricated house buyer (Leipzig region)?

They take me even less seriously than the house sellers, and with a general contractor or architect, I have to deal with more details. Correctly recognized
No seller wants to have you willingly either.
Too detail-oriented, too difficult

too detail-oriented, too difficultDo sellers really expect you to just hand over your entire savings on trust like that? Or do other homebuyers actually part with their money more easily? You know what, I’m starting a new thread based on this question because I’m genuinely interested.P
Pinkiponk11 Nov 2019 11:19The conclusion from this and my other threads is that, for now, I should place more trust in my "business partners." It’s difficult for me, but I will try. Basically, I trust that other people do a good job, but I hear so many negative things about the construction industry and have had bad experiences myself, which makes it hard.
Thank you for all your feedback and food for thought.

There are different sellers with varying company philosophies. Naturally, everyone aims to do as little work as possible while maximizing profit.
Some use empty phrases and just want you to sign quickly.
Others make you feel comfortable. They take their time and treat you as an equal.
A simple question that doesn’t require any expertise on your part:
What features are included in the standard specification?
Or simply: nice doors—standard or an upgrade?
Those who rely on empty phrases are usually done by this point.
I am in favor of small general contractors.
Not just salespeople. They support you from start to finish without staff changes.
No dedicated complaints department.

Of course, everyone wants as little work as possible for the highest profit.
Some are just smooth talkers who really just want you to sign the contract.
Others give you a good feeling. They take their time and treat you as an equal.
A simple question that requires no knowledge on your part:
What standard features are included?
Or simply, nice doors — standard quality or an upgrade?
Smooth talkers are usually already finished at this point.
I am in favor of small general contractors (GCs).

No complaints department. I would prefer a small turnkey builder from the region, but despite weeks of research, I haven’t been able to find anyone like that.
