ᐅ Additional cost for plot with a “significant drawback”

Hi,

I’m asking on behalf of a friend who, by a lucky coincidence, was allocated a plot of land by the local municipality (application process/point system).

Here is some information:
- Total of 24 plots
- Price: 206€/m² (about 19 USD/ft²) fully serviced
- Allocation decided by the municipal council; evaluation of application forms -> point system -> order of plot selection
- North-facing slope
- Defined building envelope (house + garages including ridge direction / exception for the central section)
- Maximum budget 650,000€ (about 695,000 USD) including the land
- Approximately 150m² (1,615 ft²) of living space planned (not necessarily with a basement)

If there is still a “suitable” plot left during allocation, which one would you choose and what approximate costs would you expect…
Attached are the plots in question.

Thanks for your opinions

How does that work exactly: does the person with the highest points get to choose first?
Maybe you can tell your friend that we rarely bite ;-)

Most of the biting insects have already gone... The acquaintance can also feel free to drop by in person.

The funny thing is the hypothetical question, if he doesn’t have any control over it anyway.

If one "suitable" plot is still available when the allocation happens, which one would you choose?

If there is ONLY one suitable one left, then there is no choice.

Unfortunately, he can’t choose the plot in advance... he has to take what is "left"... hence the question about your favorites...

So, if I understand correctly, you give him this result and then he adjusts to the one we haven’t mentioned, because that would be the one left, right?

Because the slope is quite steep in some places and there are restrictions in the building area etc...

… steep is 4 meters (13 feet) over 10 meters (33 feet), but not 2 meters (7 feet) over 20 meters (66 feet)... The building area barely restricts anything except the usual boundaries.

Wouldn't it make more sense to ask the question when it’s his turn and it is clear which plots of land are still available?

Of course, that makes more sense 🙂
It’s also more practical to register here yourself, since there are still plenty of questions. After 150 posts, you get the bonus of being able to send private messages 😉

Good morning,

I informed him about it, and he will get back to us once the contract award is finalized and he has chosen a plot of land.

Thank you for your opinions.
