Bien-Zenker Compares Building a New House to Buying or Renovating
Prefabricated house manufacturer Bien-Zenker GmbH has released a comparison highlighting the advantages of constructing a new build home over purchasing a property or renovating an existing structure.

German prefabricated house manufacturer Bien-Zenker GmbH has presented an analysis emphasizing the benefits of building a custom home compared to purchasing a property or undertaking significant renovations on an existing one. The company suggests this approach offers greater cost and timeline predictability.
According to Bien-Zenker, constructing a new house allows for complete customization and the implementation of individual design preferences. It also facilitates the direct integration of modern energy efficiency standards, such as Plus-Energie-Haus and Effizienzhaus 40 Plus, from the outset of construction.
The company states that the building process, particularly with a turnkey solution, is more transparent. Bien-Zenker asserts that fixed costs and predetermined schedules reduce the financial uncertainties often associated with renovating older properties or the ongoing maintenance expenses of purchased homes.
The analysis also touches upon sustainability aspects of prefabricated construction, citing benefits like reduced transportation distances and the use of sustainable materials. The company highlights the 'Made in Germany' quality standard and a potentially lower carbon footprint.
Bien-Zenker offers various house models, including single-family homes, bungalows, and town villas, stressing the importance of personalized design throughout the construction process.
