Seksjonsnummer


A Seksjonsnummer is part of a unit in the Norwegian land registry. The abbreviation is Snr.
A Seksjon is used where a property consists of several independent owner units to be sold and mortgaged separately, and where it is not normal to share the property in the usual way of sharing a business. Typically, several condominiums are in a building or several businesses are in a shopping center. A seksjon can be of two types: a residential seksjon or a commercial seksjon.
There are several requirements that must be met for a seksjon:
All main seksjons should be part of a building, but they may have specific extras amenities the building.
All sections shall have access from the common area.
All area that serves common use shall be common area.
All residential sections should have their own bathroom, kitchen, bedroom and living room.
The entire property must be seksjoned, not just parts of it.
A request for seksjoning must be sent to the municipality. If the conditions for sectioning are met, the municipality shall grant permission for seksjoning.
A common way of writing the term for a section unit is e.g. 17/235, Snr.2, where 17 is the Gårdsnummer, 235 is the Bruksnummer and Snr.2 is the seksjonsnummer. Another way of writing is Gnr 17, Bnr 235, Snr 2.
