This guide explains the steps in a flying freehold
transaction.
Reaching an agreement
Once you have agreed a price for a flying freehold apartment,
the seller's lawyers will prepare the sale documents, including
a draft conveyance.
Qualification and consents
Permission is required under the Control of Housing and Work
(Jersey) Law 2012 (CHW Law) to own freehold property in Jersey so
you must obtain a Registration Card from the Population Office
confirming your housing status prior to purchase.
If you wish to carry out any works to the apartment, Planning
and Bye-law consent may be required as well as the consent of the
other apartment owners so you should investigate this prior to
purchase.
