Costs and incidental expenses when building a house – what is involved?
During many consultations with various house builders, we got the impression that the ancillary costs at Viebrock are the most realistic (and therefore the most expensive). In our comparison of home building costs and utilities, we had Massa Haus, Weber Haus, Kage Bau and Viebrock. Here is an excerpt from our list of the incidental…

Timeless children’s room furnishings are easy to maintain
General considerations for two little kids Rooms should have plenty of storage space to stow toys in boxes or baskets. The baskets should be decorative and are welcome to stand on open shelves. Hiding everything then would somehow not be nursery-like and too “clean” for me personally. The closets should integrate well into the room,…

Communication with the Viebrock site manager: annoying
We are still in the middle of the construction phase, but there is a clearly noticeable caesura. Over the last two years, from the first contact to the conclusion of the contract to the building application, we were very well “looked after” – competent contact persons who are also available and who, in the case…

Two pacifiers and a puzzle piece
Why children sleeping in the marital bed is not a good permanent solution The title describes my finds this evening before my own bedtime: A puzzle piece, at least made of cardboard and not wood – which slightly increases the comfort factor when lying on it – and two pacifiers found under the covers in…

The saleswoman told me about her son and her view of style. The eight-year-old was not allowed to have…

Zero Followers – should parents be allowed to upload their kids’ lifes on social media?
I’m a child of the late 80s – videos were made at Christmas and birthdays at best. With a video camera, which is more cumbersome to make videos than my laptop today and about as heavy and was recorded on tapes. Today’s generation of children doesn’t even know what the square pencils were used for…

How to find a building plot in Germany – the best strategies
From “Subscribe All” to Foreclosure How do we find a building plot? This question has also occupied us for about three years. In the process, the search is also an evolution and ultimately the weighing of one’s own wishes. What has priority? What is a “must have”, what is merely a “nice to have”? And,…

Planning, (incidental) building costs and floor plan
During the Viebrock consultation before the start of construction, i.e. from the first contact with Mr. O. about 2 years before the start of construction to the completion of the building application, we were very happy with the support. At the beginning we did not have a plot of land, so Mr. O. accompanied us…
