I have been planning for a long time how my house should look, what I want and don’t want, the costs, the size, the construction type, and everything around it...
And now?
Where do I start?
Should I first ask the bank if I can even get a loan?
Should I check with the local building authority / planning office to see if I’m allowed to demolish and rebuild in the location I want (replacement building)?
Should I ask an architect if my ideas make sense?
I would like someone to ask all these questions, but who? Are there advisory services for this, or where do you begin? What is step one?

If you already own the plot, the very first step would be to visit the local building authority to find out whether the existing structure can be demolished, whether there is a development plan (building permit / planning permission), and what its specifications are. After that, you should clarify what type of construction you want—solid construction, timber frame, log house, prefabricated house, and so on. Once you have made this decision, take a rough plan of your dream house to various construction companies to request quotes. The rest will then unfold step by step. I would only approach the bank once I know that my plans and budget can be realized based on the different offers.
Building authority consultation to check feasibility – only costs one appointment.
Then go to the bank to find out if you can afford a construction project.
Credit limit plus own funds = the maximum budget for the building project.
Determine demolition costs and additional construction expenses.
The remaining amount is what your house can cost – take this to a building insurer of your choice and inquire.
The rest will fall into place 🙂
