Pricing

One complete report. You choose the language.

EUR 29 for one complete German or English edition. EUR 39 for both editions. EUR 29, EUR 39 and EUR 10 are final consumer prices. No tax, fee or other charge is added.

On coverage: the development plan is currently queried at parcel level in Brandenburg, Berlin, Hamburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and North Rhine-Westphalia. In the other states the report marks that gap and names the municipality and the Bauamt. The report reads no contaminated-land register in any state; instead of a result it names the lower soil-protection authority and the question to put to it. Pick a parcel and the map lists all twelve topics for your state, what the report reads and what stays open, always before you pay.

Each report takes about 10 minutes.

Questions about scope and limits

What the service does and where it stops.

Which region is covered?

A point-based report is available in all 16 federal states. Official parcel outlines are available in 15 federal states. Deep state-specific thematic sources are connected for Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and North Rhine-Westphalia; parcel-level planning data is verified for Brandenburg, Berlin, Hamburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and North Rhine-Westphalia. Bavaria does not publish parcel outlines openly, so the order page shows which checks remain open there before purchase.

In which federal states is the development plan actually read?

At parcel level in Brandenburg, Berlin, Hamburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and North Rhine-Westphalia. There we query the official planning service for the selected plot and report what it returns. In Hesse we read the plan where the municipality has published it as a queryable dataset in Geoportal Hessen. In Schleswig-Holstein we read the plan where the municipality has published it in the Land's development-plan service, as in the Flensburg sample. In the remaining states the report reads no development plan automatically: it marks the gap and names the municipality and the Bauamt as the authoritative sources for the answer. Bavaria does not publish parcel outlines as an open data service, so the report stays point-based there. An empty result never proves that no development plan applies.

What does a report cost?

One German or English edition costs EUR 29. Both editions cost EUR 39. You can add the second language later for EUR 10 from the report's delivery page, reached through the private link in the delivery email.

What is in the report?

The report puts parcel, location, public planning data, visible risk indicators and open questions for further review in one place.

Is the report legally binding?

No. It does not replace a land register extract, a building pre-application, legal advice or a survey.
