To get a building permit, you need various easements (for walking, for driving all vehicles, for electricity, for water supply...). In case the land around you is owned by the owner and not by the municipality, you also need an easement from your neighbour for electricity and for the construction and maintenance of the water supply. If your neighbours don't give you the easement, it means you can't get a building permit. But you have bought a buildable plot and you have been given location information that says it is possible to build.... For electricity, the solution is to put a concrete pillar on the plot and the electricity is supplied by the electricity company. For the water supply, there is no solution. Many people are afraid of the land registry and interpret it in their own way (in their own way, based on bad experiences in the past, etc.). I think that building plots should have a system where the distributor provides the connection to the plot, because we don't suddenly pay utility charges, which are very high (depending on the municipality, the size of the house... in my case, for a 150m2 single-family house, somewhere between 15 and 20 thousand euros!). And also so that you have a guaranteed way of connecting to public infrastructures, rather than having a neighbour prevent you from obtaining a building permit. Why does my neighbour have to give me an easement for the construction and maintenance of the water pipeline to be registered in the ZK, since this is the subject of the VO-KA and I have nothing to do with the infrastructure itself, but I will pay the costs of water consumption. After all, all distrubuters (water, electricity, sewerage, gas, telecommunications, etc.) operate and "live" at the expense of us, the consumers. Proposal: each distributor (chosen by the investor, if he has the possibility) takes care of the connection on the plot, the investor-consumer then pays for the connection (which he does now) and of course then pays for the consumption.
