Request a building survey
If new buildings have been erected or the floor plan of existing buildings has been changed, the respective property owner is obliged to apply to a surveying office to have the changes to the existing building surveyed at their own expense. If no application is made, the LVGL can set a deadline for the fulfillment of the building measurement obligation.
Prior to the start of construction, the ground plan area and height of the building structure on the property must be determined in accordance with Section 73 (7) of the State Building Code (LBO) (instruction). The purpose of the instruction, also known as staking out, is to ensure that the new building is erected in accordance with the approved plans and regulations and, in particular, that the boundary distances are correctly observed. In this way, staking out also serves to ensure boundary peace.
The costs for the stakeout depend on the time required.
The verification of buildings in the real estate register creates transparency, legal certainty and forms the basis for planning. It is a central element for the legally secure handling of land in Germany.
Surveying applications can be submitted by property owners or their authorized representatives (e.g. architect, property developer....).
