We would like to have two prefabricated garages, each 2 x 3.3 m (6.6 x 10.8 ft), installed after the house construction. We think the driveway would be too narrow for a delivery vehicle, as it is only 3 m (10 ft) wide. How much does it typically cost to install the garages using a crane? Any experiences? Should we expect additional costs for barriers or road closures?

Are there any recent experiences with Büttner Massivhaus?
We were attracted by the Simply series. Since the standard floor plans didn’t fit, we created a custom design. We received our quote and are surprised that it is 10-20% higher in comparison. So you planned individually, and Büttner’s quote was that much higher than a same-size Simply model? Could it be due to the scope of work description, and that the custom design is automatically offered as the "Vision" series instead of Simply?

The plot is purchased, and the floor plan and house placement with garages are about 90% complete. What’s still open is the financing and whether we work with a general contractor, architect, or building consultants. How can it still be undecided whether to work with an architect if the floor plan is already “90% complete”? The architect usually comes before the floor plan (and before searching for a building company – more precisely: even before initial major decisions –) otherwise something is off.

The garages are also included as a financial buffer in the calculation. They might be built later. Banks want a very detailed breakdown of costs. Then just include a prefabricated garage plus about a thousand for crane and road closure as a financing placeholder; for that price, you can definitely build it yourself later.

Sorry, I don’t have anything on my phone about that. As described above, the plot is nothing special and easy to imagine. Both Kerstin and I have been here for a while and cannot just imagine it well enough to give meaningful advice. My phone can access the internet and take cadastral extracts or Google Earth screenshots as needed.
P.S.: I just read:

In our planned house, the same wood flooring will be installed throughout the entire upper floor (except for the bathroom). We want no interruptions when moving between rooms. We would like to install it ourselves. The installation method will be floating.
Can anyone share their experience on the best way to do this? You want to install wood flooring yourself as beginners, continuously across expansion joints?!?
Could it be that you have a generous budget vs. ambition gap and your skills are rarely calibrated?

Could it be that you have a large gap between your expectations and budget, and your skills are rarely evaluated?@11ant I’m starting to feel uncomfortable in this forum. Did I say something wrong to you? This is my first house, which is why I’m asking my questions here. If you find my questions too basic, please just ignore me.
@Franke89 The question about the site plan drawing is not exactly new. There is also paper and pencil, with which you can roughly sketch the plot, street, north arrow, and approximate planned house location to scale, then take a photo and upload it here to provide helpful information.

If you think my questions are too silly, please just ignore me.Your questions are not "silly," but they do suggest that you might not be ignoring the issues but actually need help—and I’m happy to provide that. The same goes for Kerstin, whom you are only preventing from being very helpful by your limited participation.https://www.instagram.com/11antgmxde/
