We are not limited to new development areas! But so far, every comparison of costs (and also the process – everywhere it is warned against scheduling the notary appointment before the 14-day withdrawal period for the financing has passed, because the seller might change their mind. I guess the probability of that happening is lower with a municipality selling at a fixed price than with a private person who might get a better offer) has clearly shown an advantage for plots sold by the municipality in new development areas. But besides that, peat in this development area, peat in the neighboring town, a moor in the surroundings, can one not say that it is very likely to find peat at various, if not most, locations where building could take place?

Why do you think it could be the dumbest plot in this area? One disadvantage I can think of is shoveling snow! There are plots in the development area where less shoveling is needed, but also some with more road frontage. Otherwise, I only see advantages. You don’t know how long, but for now, there is the edge-of-town view over fields to the east, no neighbor to the east (as said, for now, no one knows if that will last forever), no neighbor to the south (since the basin is there), one neighboring plot to the west, and to the next plot north you are separated by a small street. Do I have a neighborhood allergy? No, not that, I hope for super nice neighbors with whom one can live easily and gladly greet each other! But less noise, fewer arrangements, more green around. That sounds optimal to me!

Another advantage, the fence to the south is already erected, less cost and work!

Access from the north, garden to the southwest would also be an advantage!

What am I overlooking?

Regarding the foundation with the vibro-compaction columns, you are of course right, it certainly doesn’t increase the value! But everyone in the development area on whose plot peat was found will presumably be forced to build with additional costs. So later on, higher resale prices will be demanded there for all houses. If other prospective builders decide on the option of a reinforced foundation, then in the future every later buyer will have to accept the possibly stronger settlements and potentially unpredictable consequences for the building due to the peat. As a seller, you can therefore present the argument of a good foundation here?

Interesting, I didn’t know that L-walls are rather cosmetic. You learn something in every thread here. Until now, I only knew that with L-walls it is like with peat, that is, significantly higher costs.

Regarding the floor plans, I expressed myself very unclearly, sorry! There are many example floor plans of the general contractor freely available on their website as well as in the catalog, and since for health reasons we absolutely want to build with straight stair steps (whether through a straight one-flight staircase, a staircase with a landing, or an angled staircase with straight steps does not matter at first), we also received quite a few floor plans with corresponding stair solutions. We are not being blackmailed! What I meant, and simply explained badly, is that we will only receive our personalized floor plan once we are customers with a signed contract.

New development areas of recent times are increasingly those that the geologist would not have recommended to his own family. Building gaps in town centers are often a better choice - even if these are regularly not offered by the municipality. I had already explained that: we do not know how the positioning of the retention basin came about, and this plot is the closest to it. It is not far-fetched to infer from this the relative quality compared to the others in this development area, even if it is of course not a certain indication of Z-quality. I could also have said "spices." In any case, they are only good for moderate terrain modeling and/or securing. They are not the magic tool of the civil engineering toolbox. In their often attributed function as a wonder bra or slimming pants, they are massively overrated. Where the soil has a viscosity or other stability problem, in a serious case the avalanche simply takes the L-walls along. Pudding remains pudding.
