Questions and answers regarding the allocation of residential plots in Zuidbroek

1. Who is eligible to register?

Any individual aged 18 or over may register.

2. How can I apply for a building plot?

You can register from 8.30 am on Monday 7 September 2026 until 12.00 noon on Friday 11 September 2026.

To do this, please use the registration form on the webpage. This form must be submitted by 12 noon on 11 September 2026 at the latest to the notary’s office Blankhart & Bronkhorst Netwerk Notarissen, Wolterbeeklaan 3, 7361 ZD, Beekbergen.

Please note: you must be able to provide proof of identity to the notary when registering. Once you have registered, the notary will issue you with a certificate of registration showing your registration number.

3. Can I also submit my registration form by email?

No, registrations submitted by any other means (for example, by email) are not valid and will be disregarded.

Forms submitted after 12.00 on 11 September 2026 will be deemed not to have been received. The risk of late receipt, for whatever reason, lies entirely with the tenderer. Only fully completed, signed and timely received tender forms are valid.

If you really can’t sort this out, please let us know via pacht@apeldoorn.nl. We will then get in touch with you as soon as possible.

4. Can I apply for more than one plot?

Yes. On the application form for the detached houses, please indicate which plot is your first choice and, if applicable, which other plots you would prefer. Allocations will be made on the basis of this information.

If a lot does not interest you, please mark it with an X.

Please complete the registration form for the semi-detached house together with your co-builder. On the form, you can both register for your preferred plot, either the left or the right one.

5. Can I submit more than one application?

No. A maximum of one registration form may be submitted per person, per married couple or per cohabiting couple.

Applicants who intend to live together as a household are regarded as a single applicant and may not apply separately. Even if applicants live at different addresses at the time of application but intend to live together in the new property to be built, only one joint application form may be submitted.

6. Are there any fees associated with enrolment?

No, there is no charge for registration.

7. Where can I find information about the plots available?

All information about the plots, the plot specifications (including site plans), the sales procedure, plot prices, terms and conditions of sale, drawings and surveys can be found at: www.apeldoorn.nl/kavelszuidbroek

8. How does the draw work?

Upon registration, all applicants are assigned a number by the notary. This number is stated on your registration certificate.

When the notary draws your number, you will be allocated your first-choice plot, subject to availability. If this is no longer available, you will be allocated the next available plot of your choice.

If all the preferred plots have already been allocated, you will be placed on the reserve list in the order determined by the draw.

Two reserve lists will be drawn up:

  • one for the plots for detached houses;
  • one for the plots for the semi-detached house.

9. Who conducts the draw?

The draw will be conducted by Blankhart & Bronkhorst Netwerk Notarissen.

10. Is the draw open to the public?

No. To ensure a fair draw, the notary conducts the draw and draws up an official report of the draw afterwards.

11. What happens if I’m selected in the draw?

If you are selected in the draw, you will be notified and a booking interview will be arranged.

During this meeting, the booking will be confirmed for four months, you will have the opportunity to ask questions, and important next steps will be discussed.

12. What happens if I’m not selected in the draw?

If you are not selected in the draw, you will be placed on the reserve list.

If a successful applicant decides not to take up a plot, the next applicant on the reserve list will be contacted.

Further information can be found in the sales procedure at www.apeldoorn.nl/kavelszuidbroek under ‘Documents’.

13. How do I know if I’ve been selected in the draw?

You will be notified by email following the draw.

This email will tell you whether you have been selected in the draw or what position you have been given on the reserve list.

We will send you the results as soon as possible. We would therefore ask you to wait for our response.

14. Reservation of the plot

If you are selected in the draw, the plot will be reserved for you for four months.

You can use this time to:

  • to request quotes from a builder, architect and other advisers;
  • to arrange the funding;
  • to apply for utility connections and a building connection.

You can apply for connections via www.mijnaansluiting.nl.

15. What are the options once the booking period has ended?

After the first booking period, you have three options:

1. Extension of the booking by up to four months

The booking will be converted into a paid booking.

The cost is 5% of the plot price on an annual basis. If, for example, you opt for a two-month extension, you will pay 2/12 of 5% of the plot price.

When you purchase the lot, these costs will be deducted from the lot price. If you cancel the lot, the viewing fees paid will not be refunded.

2. Signing a contract of sale

If you wish to proceed with the purchase, the local authority will draw up a contract of sale for you.

3. Cancellation of the booking

If you decide not to proceed with the purchase, please let us know as soon as possible. No explanation is required.

You will then be required to pay the local authority a fee of €300. You will receive an invoice for this.

16. When does the sale become final?

The sale is final once the contract of sale has been signed and any conditions have been met.

17. Can I choose the solicitor for the conveyancing myself?

Yes. As the buyer, you are free to choose a solicitor for the transfer of ownership.

Ideally, you should choose a local notary’s office in the municipality of Apeldoorn.

18. Can I sell the land freely after purchase?

No. The sale agreement will include an obligation to live in the property and a prohibition on resale for a period of two years.

In exceptional circumstances, the mayor and aldermen may grant an exemption from this deadline.

19. What costs will I have to pay in addition to the plot price?

In addition to purchasing the plot and building the house, you should bear in mind, amongst other things:

  • booking fees;
  • notary and land registry fees;
  • costs of subdividing the plot;
  • administrative fees, licences and research costs;
  • energy facilities;
  • connection charges for utilities and fibre-optic broadband;
  • consultancy fees for the mortgage, builder, architect, structural engineer, installer and quality assurance consultant;
  • survey costs;
  • removal costs;
  • insurance;
  • set-up costs;
  • landscaping;
  • any costs associated with the removal or addition of soil.

20. Do I need an environmental permit?

Yes. An environmental planning permission is usually required to build a house.

21. When should I apply for the planning permission?

The application for an environmental permit must be submitted within six months of the signing of the purchase agreement.

22. When will the soil be delivered?

The handover at the solicitor’s office must take place within four weeks of you:

  • holds an irrevocable planning permission for the construction; and
  • has received a mortgage or a binding offer for one, covering both the land and the construction costs.

In any event, delivery must take place within one year of the signing of the contract of sale.

In the case of a semi-detached house, the deeds of transfer for both plots must be signed on the same day.

23. When should the property be ready?

The property must be completed within two years of the signing of the deed of transfer.

24. Do I have to choose a contractor myself?

Yes. In the case of private plot allocation, you choose your own architect, consultant and builder.

26. Can I cancel my registration?

Yes. You can withdraw your registration as long as the draw has not yet taken place.
Additional conditions may apply following the draw.

27. Can I authorise someone to take part on my behalf?

Yes, provided that a valid written authorisation is presented.
You can find the power of attorney form at www.apeldoorn.nl/kavelszuidbroek under ‘Documents’.

Where can I go if I have any other questions?

Please email any questions you may have to kavelsenpanden@apeldoorn.nl. We will do our best to reply to you as soon as possible. We will add any questions that may be of interest to everyone to this “Questions & Answers” section on the website.
