Description

What is it?

Acquiring a building plot refers to the process of buying land with the intent to construct a house or other structure.

Who needs it?

It’s most suited for anyone interested in constructing a house or a building, may it be investors, families or developers.

Procedure

  1. Identifying the land: This involves looking for available plots of land that can be used for your intended construction project. Websites such as Reality or Sreality may be helpful in the Czech Republic.
  2. Legal Checking: Once the land has been identified, conduct a legal check to ensure that the land can be legally sold and is not burdened by right of third parties. You can do this by checking at the Land Registry in Czech Republic.
  3. Negotiation and Agreement: Negotiate the price and terms of the sale. It’s advisable to write this agreement down in form of a purchase agreement.
  4. Financing: Secure financing for the land. Some financial institutions provide special loans for land purchase.
  5. Purchase and Transfer: Finally, purchase the land and have the transfer recorded in the local land registry.

  • Proof of financing.
  • Proof of transfer. This is typically a document provided by the local land registry indicating that the land has been transferred to the new owner.
