Hi @ all,
we have reserved a plot of land in Lampertheim (Hessen).
It has an area of 428 sqm (4605 sq ft).
Previously, there was a scrapyard/recycling center on the site, so the city has now excavated the entire area by approximately 1.80 m (6 feet). This means it would first need to be filled up again by about 1.80 m (6 feet). The road is almost finished.
The question now is, which would be more cost-effective: this filling or perhaps building a basement?
We want to build with a prefab house manufacturer, and the house will have external dimensions of about 9 x 11 m (30 x 36 ft), so approximately 140–150 sqm (1500–1600 sq ft) of living space.
What would the approximate costs be for such filling? Or for a finished basement?
Thanks and regards,
Sven

Sebastian7921 Apr 2016 10:53I wouldn’t say that – material and labor costs do vary noticeably across the country.

Peanuts7421 Apr 2016 11:22The materials come from the wholesaler and the prices are probably more dependent on the company than on the region. Craftsmen near the Polish border are certainly cheaper than in Munich, but the difference should not exceed 20%...

Peanuts7421 Apr 2016 11:35As mentioned, with Town & Country, the difference for a turnkey house, I mean 169,000 to 200,000 in comparison between Görlitz and Munich, so less than 20% for the entire house.
However, I estimate land prices to be 10 to 20 times higher depending on the location.
Therefore, the region mainly determines the price through the cost of the land...
