In terms of layout and size, these are plots that are primarily suitable only for single-family homes. New development with apartment buildings is not feasible at all.<\/p>\n<h2>Securing building rights and inheritance disputes are standing in the way of development.<\/h2>\n<p>Time and again, inheritance disputes delay the sale and thus the development of a property. In most cases, however, the heirs agree fairly quickly on what should happen to the property. Especially because of the impending inheritance tax, many communities of heirs have no choice but to sell the inherited property. Obtaining building rights can certainly be associated with hurdles and problems. Checking whether and how a property can be built on and to what extent the desired ideas can be realized involves a very intensive expenditure of time and work.<\/p>\n\n\t<section class=\"section no-print kontaktieren  nehmen col-pb-0 pt-80 pb-40\" id=\"section_1798919850\">\n\t\t<div class=\"section-bg fill\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n\n<div class=\"row align-middle\"  id=\"row-1369385445\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-2066833689\" class=\"col medium-8 small-12 large-8\"  data-animate=\"fadeInUp\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t<div id=\"text-3791648087\" class=\"text h2-p\">\n\t\t\n\n<p>Contact us \u2013 we are always available<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-261794804\" class=\"col medium-4 small-12 large-4\"  data-animate=\"fadeInUp\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"icon-box featured-box icon-box-center text-center\"  >\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-box-img\" style=\"width: 260px\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-inner\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"175\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rogers-immobilien.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Kontakt-300x175.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Round contact portraits of Katerina and Thomas Rogers side by side\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rogers-immobilien.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Kontakt-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/www.rogers-immobilien.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Kontakt.png 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-box-text last-reset\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rogers-immobilien.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Path-219973.svg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-537\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rogers-immobilien.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Path-219973.svg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<a href=\"\/en\/contact\/\" class=\"button primary\" >\n\t\t<span>CONTACT US<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_1798919850 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n  padding-bottom: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n<h2>Low capitalization prevents the desired development<\/h2>\n<p>Sometimes the construction project fails due to a lack of financial resources.
