Hello everyone,
Is it worth hiring a prefab house expert?
We are still at the very beginning of our home building plans. If we’re lucky and secure a plot in our town, we want to build a single-family house (about 140–160 square meters (1506–1722 square feet) of living space, with a basement) on it if possible.
We have already decided that we want to build a prefab house.
Last weekend, we had two consultation appointments at the Poing building center. A certain Tobias Beuler, who presents himself as an expert on prefab houses and writes many different contributions on the subject, offers his services for contract negotiation, construction supervision, supplier selection, etc. (for a fee, of course).
Has anyone had experience with this gentleman, positive or negative? Does it make sense for a layperson to have such an expert at their side, or is it unnecessary wasted money, considering that over time you can acquire the expert knowledge yourself?
Thanks in advance!

The wall structure in timber frame construction should definitely not be something you overlook!

Meanwhile, the prefab house expert team now also includes an architect, Amelie Forster.
We actually find the idea quite appealing to be supported by the team from A to Z, that is, from architectural planning to the final house inspection.
Can anyone share their experiences with Amelie Forster?

How did you come across that? I haven’t seen it mentioned on their website yet (?)They have their own podcast, which I can definitely recommend. Just search for house building tips with Flo. It has been mentioned there several times. Also, on their website’s imprint/legal notice, you can see that it is managed by the prefabricated house experts.
(I skipped adding links since I’m new and not entirely sure what is allowed to be linked)

On their website, you can also see in the imprint that it is operated by the prefabricated house experts. I only saw the note on their website (the architectural firm’s), which is why I asked in surprise. Before your earlier comment, I wasn’t aware that they had strengthened the team.
