This decision sheds important light on your property rights. Here is what it changes for you.
The situation
Pursuant to Article 1 of the Law of 10 July 1965, which governs any built property the ownership of which is divided between several persons into lots comprising a private portion and a share of the common parts, any provision in the co-ownership regulations reserving to the person who divided the building a right to display signage on the façade, the roof, and the entrance doors of the building is void, since this right did not confer on its beneficiary a right of ownership over a private part of the building but merely a right to use the common parts.

This decision confirms the fundamental principles of property law.
Key takeaways
