Hello everyone,
My wife and I are planning to purchase a plot of land in the Gummersbach district. However, before buying, we would like to clarify whether our building project is feasible on this site. We intend to build a townhouse (170 m² (1830 sq ft)). The plot size is 1025 m² (11041 sq ft). The floor area ratio and plot ratio should not be exceeded by this.
The following information about the plot was provided by the local authority.
Development plan 1 and 1a: general residential area, two-story, open construction method, floor area ratio: 0.4, plot ratio: 0.7
Quote from an email with the responsible official
"Development plans 1 and 1a specify mandatory two-story buildings.
Only the remaining buildable areas are regulated by Section 34 of the Building Code."
Neighboring buildings consist of a townhouse, single-family homes with pitched roofs, and multi-family buildings.
We would now like to submit a preliminary building inquiry.
Which documents must be included?
What should these documents contain?
Do I need to hire an architect, or are rough sketches sufficient?
Is an informal request enough?
How long does the processing time take?
What are the costs involved?
Thank you in advance
