Kohusektaar

Kohusektaar is a term used in Estonian law to refer to the legal concept of a "registered part" or "registered share" within a property. It is a unit of ownership within a larger property that has been officially registered with the Land Registry. This registration clearly defines the boundaries, rights, and obligations associated with that specific part of the property. Kohusektaar is often used in the context of apartments or condominium units, where each owner holds a kohusektaar representing their individual dwelling and a share of the common areas.

The establishment of a kohusektaar typically involves a legal process that requires a survey of the property and the creation of a division plan. This plan outlines the specific portions of the property that will be designated as separate kohusektaars. Once registered, each kohusektaar is treated as a distinct legal entity, allowing for individual ownership, sale, mortgage, and inheritance. The rights and responsibilities associated with a kohusektaar are usually detailed in the property's statutes or bylaws, especially in cases of multi-unit dwellings. This system ensures clarity and security of ownership for individuals within larger property developments.
