ᐅ Has anyone ever had success with land services?

In a small village without a train station and without a supermarket.

Even if you live closer, in most cases you will still need to drive or bike to the train station. It doesn’t really matter to me whether I drive 1 meter (3 feet) or 5 kilometers (3 miles) if I’m already in the car.

Supermarkets are usually located where the train station is, and you might only need to visit the store once or twice a week, often on weekends anyway.

Therefore, I would suggest loosening some of these fixed parameters (everyone has them!) and maybe other plots of land—which might have different advantages like size, location, or view—will become more interesting.

Apparently, there are standard search criteria that almost everyone uses. Sometimes it makes sense to break away from those, because when you look closely, the situation might not be as bad as it seems.

Our house was in a village with a great sunny plot. The distance to the train station was about 12 kilometers (7.5 miles; regular stops there). Friends lived in that town. They needed 8 minutes to get to the station, and I needed 15 minutes (straight on a country road). They had a very small plot for double the price.

For me, that was always the better decision.

Fine and well. Everyone has their reasons, I have a 70-year-old mother who I don’t want to burden with driving for every small grocery trip. But this doesn’t address my actual question. As I mentioned, I haven’t found anyone in all the threads who had success with a land service. Is there simply no one, or are only negative experiences shared in these forums?

Radius 40km (25 miles). However, it should be connected to public transportation.

Have you already checked out the residential area Herzo Base 3? The S-Bahn (commuter train) will be available soon....

Hirschaid will also get a new development area soon, and with the S-Bahn, you'll have a direct connection to Fürth.

Sorry for the apparently unhelpful reply.
- You didn’t mention the mother.
- The property would have to be within absolutely walking distance to the supermarket for elderly people to really take that into account.
...I’m already off.

The city of Herzogenaurach operates a so-called local resident model, so sales are conducted through an application list. People who live in Herzogenaurach, work in Herzogenaurach, or come from Herzogenaurach and have lived here can apply for inclusion.

We had looked at Langenzenn back then. Unfortunately, the new development area (Klaushofer Weg) is quite close to the B8 road. Here, plot prices were around €180,000 for approximately 450-500 sqm (4,840-5,380 sq ft).

€170,000 is really not much in the metropolitan region, especially if you need good train or bus connections.
