Hello SeanBM

The land owner is selling of plots of 14 in total, of land wich he had gotten permission to sell as indvidual building plots. There is a well, and there are at least 20 houses near by so i didn't think that electric connection would be a problem. Have you build in poland?how long will it take to get planning permission, and services connected

I don't know sean I really don't how much i can build for. The land has permission for a house of 80 sq meters, However i have the plans for a cottage roughly 70feet x 45 feet.I am trying at the moment to do a pricing to see how much i would need. Its all the hidden expenses i will come across i am trying to account for as well. Like the cost of septic tanks and electric connections and fees to all the powers that be. How much based an your experience can a person build a house for in poland

It is exactly cos of the rogue builders or tooth less villge idots that have tried to convince me they are builders i realise that the only way my house stands a chance of getting built is to do it ourselves.


Every one says that to me Olsztyn is cheap. I don't think its cheap any more, the estate agents in Olsztyn told me that house and land prices have gone up 200% in the last two years.

If Olsztyn is cheap i can't imagine what the rest of poland prices are.
