The importance of an inspection prior to acceptance of the building

Another striking distinction between divided co-ownership and undivided co-ownership is found in the inspection process. In fact, in divided co-ownership situations there are two kinds of inspections: one for your private portion and the other on the common portions.

For the private portion, you, the co-owner of a private portion, are responsible for having your apartment inspected. While for the common areas, the union will be responsible for finding a building professional to inspect the building.

Note: if for the private part you have the choice to be represented or not by a building professional, for the common parts the presence of a building professional is mandatory.
