The process of Creating of a Sectional development


  • A sectional plan describing two or more units is prepared by a surveyor from a building plan approved by the county government. This could be a private surveyor. In preparing the sectional plan, the surveyor will require a land search, construction permit and the floor plans. Further, the physical structures must have been erected on the land.
  • The application for registration of the sectional plan is lodged at the land registry for registration. The Registry Index Map will be amended upon registration.
  • The application to register a sectional plan is accompanied by an application to incorporate a management corporation. The management corporation consists of the unit owners. A certificate of registration of the management corporation will be issued to the applicant.
  • Once the sectional plan is registered, the land registrar is required to submit the registered plan to the county government for apportionment of rates within 21 days.
