Hello everyone,

My fiancé and I are trying to secure a plot in a new residential development within a community where my fiancé grew up. We have already added our names to the community’s list of interested buyers and are now waiting for the start of the land allocation process. The community told us they are currently still in “purchase negotiations.” Can anyone explain what that means? I am also very interested in reading about other people’s experiences with buying land from a community (how did it go for you? Was it difficult to get a plot? Would you do it again?).

Best regards,
Kathi

By the way, I’m really impressed with this forum. It has already provided me with a lot of useful information!

The municipality will only designate the building area once it owns all the plots.

This can then take years before construction can begin.
You should check with local sources to find out how far along the process is.

It’s frustrating for prospective builders, but understandable from the municipality’s perspective.
For example, in our area, there are officially more developed building plots on paper than there are people wanting to build. In reality, there are zero plots available for sale.

In my opinion, the land previously belonged to a farmer from whom the municipality has already purchased the land. So I wonder what negotiations are still taking place. Well, I guess you just have to ask the municipality....

Since the municipality is located near larger cities, the demand will be very high. However, we have time; we are not in a hurry, so it can still take a while.

If she has already purchased it, then it concerns the zoning plan / building regulations etc.
Just purchase negotiations alone don’t sound like that.

Do you already have a plot of land secured? How was it allocated (point system, bidding process)?

If the municipality is still negotiating the purchase, then your opinion or the rumor about the sale is simply incorrect. It’s that straightforward.
Basically, it doesn’t matter. The best approach is to just wait. I would call and check in monthly.

Also, have your other thread deleted. The terms and conditions you agreed to prohibit having two threads on the same topic.
