I've seen a wide range of estimates. Starting a new construction and unsure if I should build a pool. How much would it cost to maintain per month? I've seen people say the energy for the pump alone is $100/mth. Plus the cost of chemicals, cleaning, etc. The pool would be 4x10m. Anyone add a pool recently and have a rough idea?

What is the main problem? To be honest I didn't even know it was a rule until somebody pointed it out to me.

Seems like everyone is saying to find another plot. I've spent over a year looking for plots or houses and haven't come up with much. Is it a huge downside having a neighbor that close? I understand a bit of privacy and cooking smells, but if I build my house say ~6m from the wall, it doesn't seem like much difference (despite a little extra cost). I'm not looking to sell anytime soon so not worried about price fluctuations that much.

The rest of the area is really nice. My wife seems concerned that someone knowingly violating the rules wouldn't be a great neighbor.

I'm looking to buy a plot of land with a good view. At the moment the plot right next to it is building a house that looks to be in violation of the building code. It's a 3 story building but it's certainly closer than 3 meters to the wall, probably closer to 1m. The house is 80%+ built, so it don't think they'd be able to change it at this point. I guess I could complain and have them block off all the windows, but this would ruin their view and I'd probably have quite an enemy as a neighbor. The current owner of the land is also unhappy with the situation and did not give permission. Any suggestions?
