Dream house in the Harz: Brockhaus couple masters unexpected challenges

The Harz - a place of magic and calm. Dense forests, picturesque landscapes and idyllic villages not only attract nature lovers, but also people looking for a retreat. So also Anke and Ulrich Brockhaus from Hildesheim, who were looking for a second home in this dreamlike region for years. Her dream finally became a reality with a grave house in the Oberharz, but the way there was not easy. News38 reports that you did not only want to use the Grabenhaus for yourself.

After buying the lovingly restored monument, it turned out that the modernization was only the smallest obstacle. The problems that occurred after the handover were much worse: an unreliable fountain, lack of access rights and even inconsistencies regarding the property boundaries. "It seemed as if the time stopped when we contacted the previous owners to acquire additional land," says Ulrich Brockhaus. The local authorities could not help due to data protection regulations and so the Brockhauses became detectives themselves for some challenges. Toppnews describes the great commitment of the couple, which they showed together with cooperative authorities to master their challenges.

But the aspects to rent the apartment were also more complex than initially thought. The requirements for homeowners are diverse and private rental is often in the way of speculative tax that can be incurred after the sale of a property within ten years. This is a fact that potential buyers should always keep in mind. Such information is to be found on ImmobilienScout24

an unforgettable experience

Despite all the adversities and hurdles, Anke and Ulrich Brockhaus never thought of foregoing their grave house. "We enjoyed the positive feedback from our guests and found the time in the Oberharz to be very relaxing," emphasizes Anke Brockhaus. It is important to take enough time for yourself and not just be busy with work.

The history of the Brockhaus shows that the dream of home cannot always be easily implemented. But with a clever head, a big heart and the right commitment, you can also make the best out of difficult situations. The Harz has clearly gained charm and life for them - even if the way there was rocky.
