The Condominium Law regulates common-property management and the allocation of common expenses and advances among unit owners; unit-level due diligence should therefore reconcile management records with the specific independent unit. Before moving to the next workflow step, compare that rule or dataset with the evidence for apartment aidat dues; a generic statement about another property is not enough.
Budget and management decisions
Apartment dues and site management cannot be audited from a single monthly figure. Read the management plan, period budget, owners’ resolutions, allocation of common expenses and advances, the unit ledger, major supplier contracts and any extraordinary collection. Sequence the work so errors are caught before they become expensive: prove identity first, then legal/technical status, then cost and obligations, resolve gaps, and finally recheck changeable facts immediately before payment or signing. On 22 May 2026 the Ministry of Environment announced a new site-fee framework aimed at transparency and placing fee-setting authority with unit owners through the owners’ decision process; the current resolution and budget therefore matter more than a WhatsApp message or an agent’s quoted amount.
On a management handover, reconcile bank balances, receivables, claims, suppliers, contracts, the resolution book and renewal dates. Separate an existing debt of the unit from future management obligations and from a capital expense approved by owners but not yet collected. The review becomes useful when the finding is tied to a defined effect on rights, price, cost or executability and backed by evidence that can be rechecked later.
Reserve based on asset condition
Reconcile the plan with the management budget, cash balance, contracts and approved resolutions, and separate recurring maintenance from capital replacement and emergency repair. Sequence the work so errors are caught before they become expensive: prove identity first, then legal/technical status, then cost and obligations, resolve gaps, and finally recheck changeable facts immediately before payment or signing. If a major item has been deferred for years, low current spending may hide a future liability rather than represent savings. When a supplier quote, work scope or execution date changes, recalculate the shortfall, funding route and the unit’s share instead of preserving the old reserve estimate.
A maintenance and capital-expenditure reserve should be built from asset condition and a work plan, not from one fixed percentage for every building. Start with lifts, roofs, façades, waterproofing, pumps, garages, electrical/mechanical systems and fire equipment, recording age, condition, last service, remaining life and approximate replacement cost. The review becomes useful when the finding is tied to a defined effect on rights, price, cost or executability and backed by evidence that can be rechecked later.
Independent unit and land share
Conversion to Kat Mülkiyeti is tied to documents including the building-use permit under TKGM procedures, so Kat İrtifakı alone is not proof that construction is fully completed or that occupancy approval exists. Sequence the work so errors are caught before they become expensive: prove identity first, then legal/technical status, then cost and obligations, resolve gaps, and finally recheck changeable facts immediately before payment or signing. The land share is not decorative data; it forms part of the ownership structure and can affect rights, voting, allocation of some common obligations and redevelopment. A wrong independent-unit number or share can connect the buyer to a different legal unit from the one inspected.
Compare the registry with the independent-unit plan, project description, actual use and management plan rather than relying on the door number shown in the building. For condominium property, keep three items separate: whether the record is Kat İrtifakı or Kat Mülkiyeti, the independent-unit number and the land share (arsa payı). The review becomes useful when the finding is tied to a defined effect on rights, price, cost or executability and backed by evidence that can be rechecked later.
