You as co-owners have joint responsibility for taking care of the community facility. You together form a special construction community.
Two ways of managing a community
A community can be managed in two ways, as co-owner administration or as association administration. It is based on the law on community management.
Co-owner management
In co-owner-managed communities, the co-owners make joint decisions. This means that the co-owners must completely agree on all decisions made in the community.
If the co-owners can not agree on a certain issue, a co-owner can contact Lantmäteriet and request a so-called co-owners' meeting. We then need to know which issue you want to address. At a co-owner meeting, a decision can be made by the co-owners voting. If there is a draw, Lantmäteriet decides.
If a co-owner wants the community to be association-managed instead, he or she can apply for it. We will then hold a meeting to form a community association.
Form for application can be found here.
Community association
In association-managed communities, issues can be decided at an association meeting where the co-owners vote for a decision to be made. In an association-managed community, there must be a board that ensures that the decisions made by the members are implemented. The board is also responsible for ensuring that the day-to-day management of the joint facility works.
The fee for a shareholder meeting is SEK 900 per hour.
If the community facility needs to be changed
A community facility may need to be changed, for example the share figures may need to be updated.
