COMMUNITY OF PROPERTY FOR AN APARTMENT

 The apartment owners together form the community of owners. Each owner has the sole right to use his residential unit and is also the co-owner of the entire property. For this reason, it is necessary to have a community of owners who can make decisions such as modernizing the central heating system.

The legal basis for homeownership and the community of owners can be found in the Condominium. It regulates

• the requirements, the establishment, the acquisition, and the expiry of residential property
• the rights and obligations of the homeowners and homeowner applicants, the homeowner organizer, and the manager
• the management of the property
• the community of owners
• the exclusion of homeowners
• the provisional homeownership of the sole owner of the property
• the non-dispute procedure under residential property law

General parts of a property

The shared rooms and areas of the property are called general parts. These include the bicycle parking spaces and the staircases, and the building components such as the roof and the facade. A distinction is made between the general parts of a property.

• "Necessary general part" such as the hallway, which is mandatory for all owners as access to their residential unit
• "General part under dedication" such as the garden
• Management of the property by the community of owners
• The community of owners is responsible for the management of the property. The tasks include in detail.
• Repairs and renovations of general parts
• Decision on the amount of the repair reserve

Commissioning a professional property management company

The owners can only jointly determine matters relating to the property. For example, a single apartment owner may not simply order painting work in the stairwell without obtaining the consent of the other co-owners. However, he is allowed to renovate his residential unit.

In practice, it is customary for the manager to represent the community of owners and conclude craftsman contracts, etc., in the name of these. If no manager has been appointed, most owners represent the community of owners. The majority, in turn, results from the ownership shares.

Reserve for maintenance

According to 31, the community of owners has to set up an appropriate reserve in which all co-owners participate proportionally. The account serves to cover future expenses. The contribution each co-owner has to make depends on his or her share of ownership in the property.
