Building an house ... long task !

Many questions here but it is interesting to see also these points.
Thanks Digi for your remarks. Concerning the price, it cost me 270 000€ without everything inside (kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, ...) neither painting or electricity and plumber (I am doing it with the father of my wife who is in this branch).
This cost do not taking in account the exterior job (walls, road to the garage...). To be honest, I think be close to 370 000 at the end .... at least

.

The more difficult thing for me is to keep the price in the planned line. My budget was really strict. It is a 20 years investment with a bank and I have a personal margin of course but it is very fast close to it !
Of course my aim is to do everything to keep the CSL ! For now the objective seems to be almost reached.

I was also completely new in the house building and I understand now why people say that you must build 3 houses to finally get the perfect house. You learn to avoid the mistakes and the money burned !

To conclude, I will say that this house is a nightmare since several month. Money is going away very fast and everything thing is costing much more than planned. I am the only one to not be able to appreciate it due to all this stress. May be it will be forget when I will start the first BBQ

P.S : By the way Digi, nice garage that you have
