Hello everyone,
After still being unsuccessful in finding a plot of land (I just received a rejection yesterday), and considering the decision of the local council, where chances from outside seem quite limited, I also attended a new construction project. The contractual setup is, as I have mentioned in one of my previous posts, the same again: the owner sells the land, a planner must be paid separately, and a production house provider builds the house (a network where each party earns some extra). Basically, a lot fits: the development seems well planned. The location is ideal for me: infrastructure, proximity to work, schools, etc. There are between 6 and 10 terraced houses planned, depending on size, arranged around a corner with a courtyard (greened), which sounds good at first.
But now there is one thing I am really concerned about: the owner is building an underground garage with direct access to the basements (it is planned that each house will have 2 parking spaces in the basement, meaning about half of the basement space is allocated to the garage). The garden is completely above the underground garage. A soil layer of 60cm (24 inches) is planned. How is this supposed to work with plants and, especially, rainwater? How will the water drain? What makes me a bit uncertain about the project: you basically buy the land, including the basement and underground parking space, from the owner (only via notarized purchase contract). Then the house comes separately from the production house manufacturer (fixed building contract)...meaning I am the client. What should I watch out for here? If the rainwater drainage and sewage system are not fully taken care of, I will end up with puddles in the garden. I also think it will probably be difficult to grow plants. It will likely be limited to some shrubs and lawn area. Maybe a small fig tree or something. I might be able to live with that. The plots are not big anyway, and what do you really want to plant in a row house garden? Of course, a building plot would have been better. But you just don’t get any of those here anymore.
Oh, and the cost for the project is between 600,000 and 650,000 (depending on the plot size between 200 and 250 sq m (2,150 and 2,690 sq ft)), but about 35 sq m (375 sq ft) of communal area still has to be deducted.
Thank you in advance for your opinions.

...and as I said, I’m concerned about how surface water/rainwater drainage will be handled. I don’t want the area to remain constantly flooded. ypg schrieb:
Good drainage. With clay soil, you probably wouldn’t worry much, right? 😉
I would be more concerned about drying out here, although 60 cm (24 inches) might be sufficient.

a few puddles in the garden slowly soaking away, or
a flooded underground garage resulting in total damage to the cars.
I would focus more on asking questions and considering the drainage of the underground garage (lifting station, drainage pipe diameter, buffer tanks, etc.).
To me, the overall description does not sound like a plot of land, but rather a designated special use area within a condominium complex. In my opinion, the basement access from "your house" to the shared underground garage excludes the possibility that we are actually dealing with separate plots here.

I don't know.I do. Anything else would at least be tax evasion and likely not accepted by the tax office. They’re not amateurs.H
