Requesting information from the register of building encumbrances
You would like to request information about building encumbrances that are registered for a property.

Basic information
By submitting a written declaration to the lower building supervisory authority, a property owner can make a public-law obligation to do or refrain from doing something that affects their property (e.g. taking over spacing or parking spaces, joining properties). The declaration is entered as a building charge in the register of building charges. Anyone who can demonstrate a legitimate interest can inspect this register or have copies made.
Requirements
The legitimate interest must be proven for the information, for example the buyer of the affected or neighboring property.
