Hello,
the plot of land I want to buy is rectangular, measuring 20 meters by 25 meters (65.6 feet by 82 feet).
The land has a slight slope from the back left to the front right, about 1.5 meters (5 feet).
My question is: Is this considered significant, or would the plot still be seen as “nearly flat”?
If the land is leveled, there will be height differences of about 0.75 meters (2.5 feet) compared to the neighboring plots.
How should these height differences be taken into account later, especially on the right property boundary where a garage is planned?
Thanks and best regards,
Tom

xMisterDx2 Aug 2023 00:11My land rises about 1 meter over 35m (115 feet), so I will level it with a terraced garden. Anything else, like cutting, shoring, filling, and supporting, would be way too expensive.

1.5 m (5 feet) is not much compared to the size of many plots,Over a 32-meter (105-foot) diagonal, this corresponds to about 2.7 degrees, which is basically negligible. A (still highly relative!) 11ant becomes an issue only because the original poster wants to level the entire plot in terms of water and floor level, instead of focusing just on the house footprint and its immediate surroundings. In the relevant area, we are therefore probably talking about a magnitude of around forty centimeters (16 inches).https://www.instagram.com/11antgmxde/

@11ant: A forum exists to ask questions. You don’t have to respond if my questions bother you. But not to first split them into pieces and scatter them like a scavenger hunt across multiple threads. If I want to play “Memory” (for example, if thread 123 contains important background information needed to answer a question from the same original poster in thread 789), I won’t do that here. For participants with an 11ant-like memory, this is just an unwelcome mental exercise; for those without an 11ant memory, it becomes an exhausting overload. And if those participants are not just readers but also responders, it adds rudeness to the mix. All just because you enjoy not putting the dog and the tail in the same basket :-(

Whether I want to level the entire property or just parts of it is not decided yet. That’s why I appreciate any advice. By the way, you didn’t ask whether we recommend a proper or a total operation; you already decided on the approach of "balancing everything precisely":

The goal is to even out the land, so the property is truly level.
Retaining wall or slope? I’m not sure yet. I would appreciate tips on that. So, in any case, it’s like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut; only "retaining wall or slope" was the question posed.
