Hello everyone,
After searching for some time, we were fortunate to secure a plot of land. Now comes the stressful phase, as usual: planning. I urgently need your advice.
1. Challenge – Demolition
There is an old semi-detached house on the plot that is no longer habitable and must be demolished. Both semi-detached houses were built around 1930 and most likely share a common party wall. Is it possible to demolish the house without damaging the neighboring property?
2. Challenge – Full Basement
The existing house has only a partial basement, about 20 sqm (215 sq ft). According to the development plan, we are allowed to build 17 x 7.5 m (56 x 25 ft). Is it possible to excavate a full basement given the adjacent house?
3. Challenge – Architect
We would like to build with an architect but have not found one so far. I’m also unsure if every architect can handle the two challenges mentioned above. I found the portal construyo online, which seems interesting. Does anyone have experience with such a portal?
I would be very happy and grateful for any comments or advice.
Best regards,
Zonny

I have received some documents regarding real estate and will upload them during the day.
I found some demolition companies nearby in the Yellow Pages but cannot assess them. Could you give me some advice? I would like to get two quotes.

This is everything I received from the real estate.Ah, now I understand... were you in France before? – the profession is called "real estate agent" in German. ZonnyNg schrieb:
On the development plan, the building zone is marked in orange.Interesting. So it’s not a continuous gable across the full depth, as I initially thought.https://www.instagram.com/11antgmxde/

The building envelope shows the area on the plot where you can build, but it looks like the floor area ratio restricts building too much, or there may be another limitation regarding the width of the house. The houses are not that narrow for no reason.

The building envelope shows the area you can build on the plot, but it looks like a floor area ratio limits building too much, or another restriction limits the width of the house. That’s why the houses are so narrow. I have talked to a building consultant. Yes, a 3m (10 feet) distance to the neighboring boundary must be kept, and the width is almost 7.5m (25 feet). To the rear, it’s like in the building envelope, about 17m (56 feet) deep. The representatives from two construction companies said the same. But yes, it is still not 100% sure. I am also happy with 7 x 14m (23 x 46 feet), as long as it is doable and with a basement.
