Condominium registration in the unified land registry in Hungary : toards the 3D registration

Ossko, Andras

Developing, introducing a 3D Cadastre, Land Registry is a challenge and very strong need in many countries. In big and densed cities there are many real estate development under and above ground creating engineering constructions, like tunnels, bridges, pipe lines, other objects as properties, have been unregistered in the land registry. The investors, owners of these constructions require registration as properties in the Land registry in order to create legal status and mortgage facilities of objects above and under the surface. Development of 3D registration requires comprehensive legal and technical solution, but before to reach the final aim, gradual approach can be possible. Condominium, condominium units as properties have been registered in the land registry in Hungary since decades. Condominium units as properties have unique ID number with link to the land parcel number and physical description therefore itts possible to register them in the land registry. Condominium registration is a kind of 3D registration because units as properties are existing above and under the surface. This paper wants to describe the condominium registration in the Unified Land Registry in Hungary. Following the method of condominium registration it is possible to extend the registration of objects above and under the surface gradually, towards the creation of complete 3D Cadastre, Land Registry.
