I have read a lot about this topic, but I’m still not any wiser. Here in Munich, we generally have the problem that plots of land are very scarce and expensive. Now we have found an offer for a plot measuring 420 m² (4,520 sq ft), and the house plan is already finalized. Our question is whether we should invest an additional 33,000 euros in building a solid construction house (massive house) with 190 m² (2,045 sq ft) of living space or not. The following questions are on my mind:
1.) I was told that achieving KfW 40 energy efficiency standard is not possible with a solid construction house. Why exactly is that?
2.) Is a solid construction house really more expensive? I have read everywhere that prefab houses are more costly.
3.) I find it hard to create a checklist comparing the advantages and disadvantages of the two building methods. In my mind, I only think: if there is a fire, I won’t have a house afterward. But how stable is wood compared to stone?
Could someone please help me with this?
Good luck
Yasemin

2. General statements are also incorrect here, as regional providers of solid houses are often more affordable.
3. Take your time for such a comparison. You can build a beautiful house either way.
4. You should know your budget; here it states 33,000 euros. Ok, the garage would be set with that.
5. If the house burns down, everything is gone anyway. However, houses don’t burn that often.
Stone or wood—doesn’t matter—both are good!

You can build solid and technically up-to-date houses that are worth the money using various masonry materials, timber frame panels, or other construction methods. My advice is to find a builder whose reliability and expertise you trust. Then have them build your house using the material they know best. Forget the ring ...! (Mel Brooks).

Yasemin.G3 Jan 2021 01:06Thank you very much for the quick responses. I have already looked for reviews and unfortunately found a lot about the construction company. Do you know HOFFMANN Holz- und Massivhaus GmbH?

Something seems a bit suspicious on their website, as the pictures of the model houses mostly look very familiar to me – they appear to be widely used stock photos on the internet :-(

THANK YOU, that’s it. Somehow I see similar pictures everywhere.
