Construction costs are currently skyrocketing

Yup, it is an undeveloped plot. As far as I know, starting in 2025, the value is reassessed every seven years. No idea if there are also occasion-related valuations – I guess there are.

Yes, there are. Apparently, the tax office is informed by the building authority upon completion and then gets in touch.

This is how it was for me this morning as well. I had the instructions for the forms open in parallel, so it was manageable. The biggest stumbling block was "Share belonging to the economic unit: numerator" and "...: denominator". People just write down: Do you own the damn thing completely: Yes/No If no: To what percentage: Numerator and denominator, damn...
