Hello everyone,
We are currently considering a prefabricated house from Bien-Zenker. It was built at the end of 2013, so it’s almost new. A family with five children lived in it for one year. The marriage broke up and the house is now being sold. Some interior work was done by the owners themselves, which is visible in places (bathroom grout is poorly done).
The details are as follows:
The purchase price is €390,000 plus realtor fees. The walls all need repainting as they’re quite marked by the children. Some baseboards need repair. The garden still needs to be landscaped.
What do you think? Is the price reasonable?
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Timo

Invest some money and hire an expert. They can provide you with much, much better guidance for this decision than any forum post here.
Also, keep in mind that, for example, you should have the kitchen excluded when calculating the building value for property tax purposes.

That will be difficult, as there are hardly any building plots available, and if you find any, they tend to be quite expensive.And that’s exactly why people also consider looking at existing properties.
Check real estate listings in your area for comparable properties to understand their value on your local market.
Your gut feeling should decide whether you would like to live there.
Even with a new build, compromises have to be made: some accept less living space, others the design, and some the technical features.
I didn’t get the impression of any gold rush mentality here.

There is no gold rush hype, because I know the owners.
Immoscout initial valuation says €367,000I did not suggest that you should make an appraisal, but rather that you should check what else is available. If everything else is €100,000 more expensive or at this price everything is 20 years older, you can decide for yourself whether this is a good deal on the market.
