About the application process

The plots are allocated according to the municipal points system, which was adopted by Bocholt City Council in 2014: Applicants receive 10 plus points per underage child living in their own household. There are 20 minus points for owner-occupied property in Bocholt. In the event of a tie, the date of entry on the city's list of interested parties or the date of application if there is no entry on the list of interested parties will count.
