Hello dear forum members,
we are currently looking for a plot of land to build a single-family house in the Lake Constance region, ideally Friedrichshafen.
Since Friedrichshafen and the surrounding area were heavily bombed during World War II, the question arises how to best ensure before purchasing the plot that no unexploded ordnance is present on the property? The seller apparently has no information on this.
If during the planning phase a suspicion of unexploded ordnance arises or even is confirmed, but the purchase contract made no mention of the matter of unexploded ordnance: can the seller be held legally and financially responsible here (keyword: hidden defect)?
Thank you very much for your answers
