Abgeschlossenheitsbescheinigung Ausstellung

The certificate of seclusion is one of the prerequisites for dividing your property and the building on it into condominiums or granting someone a permanent right of residence to an apartment in your house and parts of your property.

For example, you need a certificate of completion if you:

• want to sell an apartment or several apartments in your apartment building individually
• want to transfer an apartment in your house to your child.
• want to create a permanent right of residence in favor of your parents, for example.

You must submit an application for this. The condominium ownership or permanent right of residence can only be entered in the land register with a certificate of seclusion. With the certificate of separate ownership, the responsible building supervisory authority certifies which rooms of an apartment, separate cellars or garages are eligible for separate ownership. To this end, they must form self-contained units of the residential building.

• Informal application (the lower building supervisory authority may have a sample that can be used)
• Proof of ownership
• Site plan at a scale of 1:500 or
• Current cadastral map, not older than 3 months, each in duplicate
  
• Construction drawing (floor plans, elevations, sections) in duplicate at a scale of 1:100

In the construction drawing, all individual rooms belonging to the same residential property or permanent residential right, including rooms not used for residential purposes, must be marked with the same number. Jointly used rooms must be indicated as such (e.g. with "G"). In addition to the location of the property (town, street and house number) and the cadastral designation (district, corridor and parcel), please also state the designations of the land register and land register page.

The drawing must be an as-built drawing for existing buildings.

The rooms to which the condominium or permanent right of residence relates must form a complete apartment. The apartments or the rooms not used for residential purposes must be self-contained.

Completeness is given if apartments are structurally completely separated from other apartments and rooms and have their own lockable access directly from the outside, from a stairwell or a vestibule.

Have a competent person (e.g. an architect) draw up a construction drawing, the so-called subdivision plan of the building and the property. Submit this subdivision plan together with the other required documents to the responsible building supervisory authority and apply for a certificate of completion at the same time.

You will then receive a written certificate by post from the building supervisory authority together with a signed and stamped copy of the corresponding partition plan.

Every co-ownership share and every permanent residential right must be entered in the land register. The basis for this is a registration permit issued by a notary. In order for the notary to be able to notarize this registration approval, he must have a certificate confirming that the apartment(s) is/are separate. For this purpose, he often requires a calculation of the living space of the rooms concerned. It is recommended that you submit this calculation to the building supervisory authority together with the application for seclusion.
