Definition : Amendment

Change made to the declaration of co-ownership following a vote at a meeting of the co-owners or the signing of a written resolution by all the persons entitled to vote. The purpose of the deed of amendment is generally to correct, supplement or delete certain provisions of the declaration of co-ownership. The deed must be the subject of a writing filed in the register of co-ownership and be kept at the disposal of any co-owner who requests it. When the amendment concerns the constituting act of the co-ownership or the description of fractions, it must also be notarized and registered in the Land Registry Office under the registration number of the common portions only, unless they directly affect a private portion.
