Property division - what is the best way?

Definitely in favor of Escroda's suggestion.

Really? But you have a north orientation and the space for a garage is also questionable. Don’t you think people will be even less interested then? When I look at the whole thing, it probably won’t happen. The buyer is building a Town & Country – which to me already means as cheap as possible, please. Now he has seen our offer at 29 Euros/m² and thinks he can pick out a gem and goes home with that idea. If I do the division as Yvonne suggested, the southern plot would be about 1000m² (very roughly). Since the upper one would otherwise become too unattractive, both would have to be offered at the same price – so each 40K. On top of that come all the surveying and notary costs + clearing the plot. So in the end that will probably cost them about 50K each. Whether he’s still willing to pay that for it? We will see...

What is always so bad about a north orientation? You will find plots oriented like that in every new development area that still get sold. You lose the southern sun on the terrace, but that’s only interesting for shift workers, retirees, or the unemployed. The average employee only ever sees the western sun anyway. Upstairs it doesn’t matter either, the children’s rooms just face the street at the bottom of the plan. Only in the ground floor living room do you have to make sure the room still gets enough light.

Perfection does not exist. There is always something. Personal preferences do not necessarily have to align with those of potential buyers. You can also see this wonderfully here in the forum in the floor plan discussions, how the builders are sometimes aggressively pushed away from their wishes and ideas.

I simply do not see the economic viability if ypg’s version comes into play. Overall, the plot there is just too cheap to justify investments. You probably have to be glad if anyone takes it at all? The rear neighbor will pay five figures for the connections and would also bear the costs arising from the slope alone. What is then still a reasonable price if the front one ends up at €35K. 25? 20?

PS: If you rotate the sketched building masses 90 degrees, i.e. adapt the shape to the plot, new options arise. Provided it is allowed. This also applies to garages; they don’t always have to be placed in the building line and can possibly be rotated as well.

That's of course an argument as well. The pipes are a main problem. I need to see to what extent they might already be there and especially where. If the garages have electricity, there might already be something... who knows.

The slope doesn’t cause any costs as long as you don’t build anything on it. So I would neglect that, because the house itself is situated further south on the level.

In the end, one could also offer 2 options (one divided crosswise and one lengthwise), attach a fixed price to each, and the customer can decide which one or if they would like one of them.

I simply don't see the economic viability if the option from ypg is chosen

Actually, I didn't make a suggestion at all, but only expressed my tendency towards V2. I still stick to that, but I do see the connection problem.

True, I misplaced it mentally. Mea culpa.

Now he has seen our offer with 29 Eus/m² and thinks he can get a piece of the cream and goes home with it.

Cream of course costs extra.
