How does a building community work?
A building community is an association of households and individuals who jointly acquire a plot of land in order to plan and build their residential project on it and also to live there themselves. The project can be a new building or an existing property. In any case, the primary objective is the creation of residential property. However, rental models are also possible, either with a cooperative approach or in cooperation with one or more investing partner(s).
In addition to the opportunity to save costs compared to the "normal" housing market, building groups offer the possibility to actively shape the future - communally but still individually. Building communities require their members to participate in the project. Commitment, participation and a willingness to compromise are therefore required. The joint use of objects and spaces helps to save resources and creates scope for new offerings such as community rooms, workshops and music rooms, sports and play rooms, roof terraces and urban gardens, and much more.

Online contact exchange
In order to form a strong construction group that can successfully follow the common path, it is important to find suitable comrades-in-arms. In addition to friends and acquaintances, other interested parties can also join in.
The online contact exchange of the state capital helps to bring like-minded people together. Individuals and households can look for a connection to an existing group or make contact with fellow campaigners in order to found a group themselves. Existing groups, in turn, can look for further comrades-in-arms for their group or project.
