Hello,
I have selected two home builders and requested quotes based on my custom specifications.
Offer 1 is from Heinz von Heiden, building a KfW 70 house with a ground source heat pump.
Offer 2 is from Viebrockhaus, building a KfW 40 Plus house.

The Viebrockhaus offer is exactly €43,000 more expensive than Heinz von Heiden. However, I would still receive subsidies of €15,000 from the KfW bank and an additional €2,000 from BAFA if I choose to build the KfW 40 Plus house. This leaves a net difference of €26,000.

What do you think? Is the KfW 40 Plus house worth the extra €26,000, or would you prefer to go with the KfW 70 house from Heinz von Heiden?

I look forward to your advice.

Viebrockhaus builds solid construction houses.

and be clear about what I want.

Heinz von Heiden is generally not recommended, mostly interesting because of the price – it can be an option for those who cannot afford the quality of Viebrockhaus. However, I also have some objections to Viebrockhaus:
First, I would definitely insist on a longer construction period, then add some individuality through different facade options, and finally, the Nibe heating system is not that great.
