Property division according to the German Condominium Act (WEG) requires professional support
Properties divided according to the Condominium Act, i.e. separated residential or commercial units within your property, can often be marketed more easily and at better prices than a global property.
Furthermore, this way, larger properties can be sold step by step. The advantage of this is that you can calmly look for the right buyer, meanwhile still collecting the remaining rental income.
Even if you currently do not intend to sell your property, it is worth considering a preparatory division.
For the legally binding division of a property into legally independent condominium units it must be divided according to the Condominium Act applicable in Germany. This requires a carefully considered declaration of division, a partition plan and a certificate of self-containment.
Additionally, the current title/land register must be converted into individual condominium title/land registers. As both the declaration of division and the partition plan are of particular importance for the future community of owners and mistakes may result in claims for compensation even after the sale of the individual condominium units, you should definitely request professional assistance before embarking on such project.
