Hello everyone,
We are about to start building a house (rural area, Schleswig-Holstein, 60 km (37 miles) from Hamburg) and are uncertain about how to proceed due to the coronavirus crisis:
Option 1: Turnkey with a solid construction company Massivhausanbieter Viebrockhaus, because – as we assume –:
- more financially stable/crisis-proof as a large company, lower risk of insolvency
- own sample display centers with likely on-site material storage
- own trades/construction crews (no cross-border workers who currently cannot cross the border)
- relatively short construction period
Option 2: local architect/construction manager who uses local tradespeople, because:
- has known many trades in our region for decades
- very good reputation/experience
- can adapt plans more flexibly in case of illness/material shortages (has several framers, carpenters, electricians, etc. available)
- feels personally committed to the construction project
What do you think, which option would be your favorite and why?
Thank you very much for your opinions, advice, and tips!

Where are they located, and how did the best friend come across them?They are based in Schuby but, for example, have an office in Timmendorf.
Stoll built a house for their parents-in-law and is currently building more houses in the same new development. Their quality is very good there as well. Whether this is always the case, I don’t know, but I have only heard positive things about them.
