The establishment of condominium ownership is of central importance in real estate development projects – whether in connection with a new build or the revitalization and conversion of an existing building. It is not only the formal prerequisite for the individual sale of residential units but also forms the legal basis for the future community of owners. A well-conceived condominium structure is therefore essential to the legal and economic success of a project. The experts at GIBEL ZIRM Attorneys at Law support you from the very first step through to registration in the land register.

Parification and Utility Value Appraisals: Technical and Legal Components in Harmony
Parification involves both technical and legal elements. As part of a utility value appraisal, authorized civil engineers objectively determine the relative value of the individual units, such as apartments, commercial premises, parking spaces, or basement compartments. This assessment is carried out based on statutory criteria and forms the basis for the allocation of co-ownership shares. These findings are then translated into legally binding form in an agreement drafted so that it can be entered in the land register and establishes the legal independence of the individual units.
The Condominium Agreement: Scope for Structuring with Lasting Effect
The condominium agreement does not merely determine who owns which unit. It also defines key rules for the future management and use of the property, including:
- Which usage categories apply?
- How are the costs allocated?
- Are structural alterations, such as air conditioning units or terrace extensions, permitted without further consent?
- How is the use of common areas regulated?
Because every property and every project has its own individual circumstances and challenges, a carefully coordinated condominium agreement is essential. Only in this way can later conflicts between co-owners be avoided and the foundation for a functioning ownership structure be laid.
Legal Certainty and Flexibility – Even During the Marketing Phase
For property developers in particular, the establishment of condominium ownership is also strategically important from a commercial perspective. A professionally drafted agreement allows you to remain flexible even during the sales phase. This provides both planning and financing security while preserving flexibility in the event of project adjustments.
