I want to sell my property - I also have many interested parties who are bothering the mayor.
We moved there before 2010 - there was a wild growth of trees but no registered tree stock according to the land register where today the mayor has designated protected tree stock and a biotope. We were happy that the property had no sidewalk.
Two years after moving in, a sidewalk was built there - with a lowered curb - then we got a letter that although we had been paying taxes and registered there for 2 years, we could only now be identified for voting on whether people were in favor. Huh? So the sidewalk was built, including the lowered curb.
We put the property up for sale and learned from potential buyers that in 2012 there was a zoning change about which we were never informed: the tree stock was registered as "protected area." Also, the mayor called me saying he is annoyed by the many people asking him about the property and that there are "problems" because the property is not developed, which he tells everyone. Not developed because we have no access road since the 1960s the municipality messed up and failed to include the access road in the plan. My answer: if a mistake was made back then, they have to fix it. For the sidewalk we had to pay for, the office knew that a lowered curb belonged at the obvious entrance... The property was the first plot in the industrial area - located on the street - over the years, neighbors moved in all around. The mayor said it is only "tolerated" since the 1960s that you can enter/leave the property by car because there is no driveway...
Now this week the mayor came with a new bombshell: the wild growth of willows - which were registered as "protected tree stock" without prior notice - are a biotope.
We also paid normal construction price for the green strip back then - there used to be a hall someone started renovating - the base plate is still there.
Is it legal that if the municipality made mistakes in the 1960s the mayor scares off every potential customer by telling them the property is not developed? Shouldn’t the owner be informed if suddenly a change is made regarding "protected tree stock" - mind you, wild growth of willows - and since this week it is declared a biotope? No animals present, no water - but it means that for the originally 5400 m2 property, people naturally only want to pay for about 4500 m2. Those who were there saw that the property is developed - electricity/water/two times gigabit internet are available and the lowered curb... So far no one had to teleport because allegedly no "access" exists.
When we bought the property ourselves, the agent told us: approach, it can be cleared at any time - at the land registry only the trees with protected status were listed. There was no mention of sidewalk construction back then either... Since the property with the house was enough for us at that time and consisted of 4 connected lots, it was clear to us at the purchase: we use 2 - the house itself, the hall in the second lot partially rented out, the other 2 lots were intended as retirement provision.
Now that we want to emigrate, we are surprised at what the mayor suddenly says... people who want to buy the whole thing - 5400 m2 - are scared off by the mayor and only want to pay a fraction because the 5400 m2 property has shrunk to 4500 m2 thanks to the "biotope" which before was normal building land in my opinion. Thanks to the mayor there are hardly any interested parties left anyway because according to him the property is not developed... and a biotope has existed since this week. At least he claims this to potential buyers... I had buyers who offered 1.6 million - after they spoke with the mayor, the offer dropped to only 1 million...
Thank you, Mr. Mayor - I pray for you every night... although my prayers involve electricity and bowel movements...
If anyone has tips I would be happy... Even if you inform yourself when buying - look at the zoning plan etc., you can’t be sure to avoid unpleasant surprises (also on the local website there was no mention of a planned sidewalk - that came 2 years later when no one informed us, even though we had lived there for 2 years)... I am seeing this myself now with the property sale....
