We had an appointment on Friday at the bank regarding the financing of a row house (middle or end unit) with the KfW55EE standard.
The house has a living area of about 150m² (1,615 sq ft) and an indoor air-source heat pump. Construction would start from September.
I was surprised that the bank calculated €1.75 per square meter, which totals €262.50, as this seems extremely low to me.
Do you have any experience with additional costs that you can share with me?
Many thanks in advance.

What exactly do you mean by "additional costs"?
Broker fees, land registry, notary fees, property transfer tax?
If so, was the bank advisor maybe not fully clear when advising you?Good morning. I am referring to the ongoing monthly additional costs, not the one-time purchase-related costs.Property tax – depending on the location: approx. 40.00€
Waste collection fees – depending on the location: approx. 15.00€
Water costs: approx. 40.00€
Internet: approx. 30.00€
Electricity + heating: approx. 120.00€
Insurance: approx. 40.00€
Chimney sweep: approx. 6.00€
That adds up to just under 300.00€ – so yes, he’s not far off with his 1.75€ / m² (18.25 sq ft). 🙂

nordanney12 Apr 2021 10:42You already asked this question over the weekend, didn’t you? Where did the thread go?
My answer was there as well: Yes, that works quite well. Although you are best placed to estimate the local costs (and your electricity/water needs).

My answer was posted there too: Yes, it fits quite well. Although you are the best person to assess the local costs (and your electricity/water requirements).Thank you for your feedback. However, I was unable to read it because my thread was deleted due to the title.
