Hello and good evening,
I would like to buy a small house through a developer. They are building a total of 12 units on a plot, including houses and detached houses. Communication with the real estate agent is always very slow, and answers to specific questions are often vague. After requesting references, we didn’t hear from the man for two weeks, even though HR Hausbau from Gründau Lieblos is not a beginner in the construction business and should certainly be able to provide some proof.
Recently, we asked for the following documents:
1. Floor plans and cross-section of the building
2. Planning documents (plot with building, among others)
3. Soil report (including water contamination in the ground) and the construction description of the basement
4. Energy certificate including the thermal insulation proof
Apart from the construction description, the draft contract (with notary from the developer’s side) and a few colorful floor plans, we don’t have anything in hand.
The agent said that the developer does not do a soil sample and that there is no energy certificate (plan) because they build according to the Energy Saving Ordinance 2009. Furthermore, we don’t even have a cross-section of the house with measurements; the agent also said that the building permit has not yet been applied for the detached houses.
What do you think about this?
Which documents and "investigations" do you think are important for a new build?
I would be very grateful for many answers.
Merci and many thanks in advance,
Sandy
