Hello everyone,
slow and steady progress is being made with our approach.
(https://www.hausbau-forum.de/threads/kaufmoeglichkeit-altbau-1953-hilfe-bei-bewertung.44699/)
We have now had the floor plans created by having someone come on site to take measurements, calculate the living area, and then send us the floor plans and sections. This cost us about €1500. So far, so good. However, the windows in the floor plans were placed quite randomly and only loosely resemble reality. A door to the main bathroom from the bedroom is missing, as well as a wall in the living room that separates the office. Overall it’s not “critical,” but it is simply not correct, and the floor plans and sections alone ended up costing us €600. (The price breaks down as floor plans + sections = €600 and living area calculation = €900).
How would you proceed? We needed the living area calculation and floor plans for the bank. That was sufficient for them, and my husband thinks we should just accept it as is. But I’m already annoyed that we paid €600 for only a very rough floor plan, which we could have had done online for €25–50…
I will upload the floor plans with the indicated errors shortly.
Oh, and the stairway entry from the ground floor is also incorrect. As I said, none of this is critical, and I understand my husband’s view if we just let it be. But I would be interested to hear your opinions.

We have now had the floor plans created by someone who came on site to take measurements, calculated the living area, and then sent us the plans and sections. This cost us about 1500€ (around $1600). So far so good. However, the windows in the floor plans are randomly placed and only vaguely match reality. I remember. For this property, accurate plans would be preferable, especially since some exist that no longer reflect the current condition. The price sounds like the usual offers from fully qualified but not yet registered architects, while the execution seems like extremely overpriced nonsense. You could really get that done for one and a half grand.

An online company commissioned to provide this service, advertising compliance with the living space ordinance or DIN277. I think I’m not allowed to mention their name, right? Correct, for any potentially disputable "accusations" against tricksters, there is a moderated specialized section here.

The dimensions also do not match those from the measurement report we have separately. For the purpose of using these for bank documents, this could be considered document forgery. Has the clever one signed their "calculation" based on these incorrect foundations?
I would reject the invoice and try to recover any payment already made. The drawing itself is childish scribbles even when printed out, and as such, nonsense to be sold at a fair price. However, the calculation of a floor area report according to DIN is a qualified service that, in my opinion, has clearly not been properly provided here.

The drawing itself, even when printed out, is childish scribble and therefore just a rip-off to sell it at a premium price. However, the calculation of an area verification according to DIN standards is a specialized service that, in my opinion, was clearly not provided flawlessly here.How do you plan to recall a payment? You can try to request a refund!
