Good day and thank you very much for your attention!

We plan to purchase a plot of land in a newly developed area. The seller has already had all connections installed approximately 1 meter onto the property for all plots and has completed the street entirely. There is a separate "cost assumption declaration for the settlement of the land connection costs" related to the purchase contract of the plot. Costs for planning and construction of the property house connections are settled. The lump sum buyout amount includes the costs for the wastewater and rainwater property connections as well as the earthworks and civil engineering work for the water and electricity property connections.

Now to my question: What costs should one expect if the following point is part of the agreement?

Costs for the delivery of materials and the installation service of the water and electricity property connections are not included in the lump sum buyout amount. These are carried out by the respective utility providers at their own expense and invoiced to the later connection user. The property connection from Telekom is also invoiced to the later connection user.

Thank you very much for your support!

Best regards
R.

That primarily depends on where the pipes are located under the street. We were lucky; electricity, water, and gas are on "our" side of the street or under "our" sidewalk. The neighbor across the street had to pay 6-8m more just because of this dumb coincidence.

Thanks for the quick response. The lines/connections are already all on "our" property. I was only confused by the point that the costs for the material delivery and the installation service of the water line and electricity property connections are billed separately. For me, that's an intangible item. Maybe as a newcomer to the field, I'm interpreting this wrong?! Thanks again :)

Yes. However, I understand it to mean that you also have to pay for this rescheduling in addition to the property.

There you have a particularly clever salesman who not only makes you pay for the base but also for a part of the work that actually gives the floor its value ;)

That sounds like a land development including realignment, infrastructure provision, and road construction (although the road is not yet publicly designated). If the seller is not the municipality itself, you can expect a billing of the contributions from the property owners from the municipality (after the public designation of the road) once the road is "completed" (this could be a single finishing stone or a streetlight inspection cover still missing). The purchase contract should contain declarations regarding this, if the road is offered to the municipality for designation in the actually fully completed state. There are also dead-end roads that remain private forever. Your cost risks or questions yet to be clarified therefore have a somewhat larger dimension than just the material costs of the connection parts, which here basically only serve to ensure that the curbstones of the road for the individual connection installations no longer need to be touched, as they are already finally tunneled underneath.
