Hello MNers living in (or having lived in) Germany!
I would so appreciate your help with a building quandary.
We are having a house built and can't decide whether we should get a basement. They are 37,000 Euros to build and if I don't get a basement I can have a bigger / fancier house above ground. Also if we get a basement I'll have to clean it and it will get filled with crap that we don't need. However, we have this feeling that Germans love their basements and I don't want to be building a house that will be hard to sell or be worth less than it ought to be.
The ground is unusually flat for round here and so the basement would be totally underground and not one of those above ground on one side types. I wouldn't mind one of those.
If anyone has any experience or opinions please let me know.
Ich danke im voraus!
