A property survey confirms the boundaries of a given property ing to records and legal descriptions. It can be potentially significant to know where your property line is for legal purposes and if you're adding structures to your property.
Pennsylvania's inium property acts require that a registered land surveyor prepare a plat showing the elevations of floors and ceilings on a vertical plane and the boundaries of a inium unit with reference to an official datum.
Iniums in Pennsylvania are governed by the Uniform inium Act, 68 Pa. Stat. §§ 3101 to 3414 (the “UCA”). Although “inium” is a term generally used to refer to an individually-owed unit, it is also a form of ownership where property other than the individual unit is deemed to be common property.
There are three common real property measurement methods; the Gross Building Area (GBA), Gross Living Area (GLA), and the American National Standard Institute (ANSI). While each method is specific in what areas are included and excluded, all of them calculate the property size based on square footage.
Inium is a Latin word that means "Owning property together." That's what it is like when someone buys a condo unit. They have an "interest" in the land beneath the building, but the building's association owns the actual land.
In a inium, the common facilities are owned directly by the unit owners as an interest appurtenant to the units. In a planned community, the common facilities are owned by the association, and each unit owner has a membership interest in that association because they hold the title to their unit.
A inium (or condo for short) is an ownership regime in which a building (or group of buildings) is divided into multiple units that are either each separately owned, or owned in common with exclusive rights of occupation by individual owners.
No. A deed is binding even if it is not recorded. However, for numerous reasons, it is in your best interest to record it. One good reason: the former owner can go on getting mortgages, judgments and suits on your property, since records in the Office would show that he/she still owns it.
Your inium doesn't have a lifespan, but the corporation managing it has one. In the Philippines, 50 years is the lifespan of all companies and corporations, big or small. However, the corporation can still be renewed for another 50 years, so your inium ownership does not necessarily end at that point.
