Request information on the building encumbrance register

The building encumbrance information or the copy of the building encumbrance register informs you whether a property is benefited or encumbered by public law obligations.

  •  

Detailed description

If a building burden is registered for your property, you have an obligation to do, tolerate or refrain from doing certain things that affect the property.

Building encumbrances affect the value of a property. For real estate financing, your bank requires current information from the building encumbrance register.
The building encumbrance information or copy of the building encumbrance register provides information about which public law obligations (building encumbrances) are entered in the building encumbrance register.
These may be building burdens that impair the structural usability of the property (for example, taking over a setback area or a parking space) or improve it (for example, unification building burden).
You can obtain extracts from the building encumbrance register from the State Office for Geoinformation and Surveying.

To establish or delete building encumbrances, please contact the responsible building inspection office of your district office.
