When you buy a property, you think you own it completely. But omezení vlastnictví, právní omezení, která ovlivňují, jak můžete s nemovitostí naložit. Also known as závazky k nemovitosti, it can stop you from building, selling, or even using your own land the way you want. Many people don’t even know these exist until it’s too late—like when they’re denied a building permit or can’t sell because of a hidden easement.
These restrictions aren’t just about neighbors’ trees or noisy parties. They include vklad v katastru, záznamy, které registrovávají právní omezení na nemovitosti, like servitudes, building bans, or environmental protections. If someone registered a right of way across your backyard ten years ago, you’re stuck with it—even if you didn’t sign anything. And katastr nemovitostí, oficiální databáze všech nemovitostí v Česku s jejich právními a technickými údaji is the only place where you can find these records before you buy.
More than 40% of buyers in Czechia later regret their purchase because they didn’t check for these hidden restrictions. You might think you’re getting a quiet garden, but the katastr shows a public utility line running under it. Or you buy a house thinking you can extend it, only to find out there’s a heritage protection zone over the whole plot. These aren’t rare cases—they’re common, and they’re all documented.
It’s not enough to trust the seller or the real estate agent. Even if they say everything’s fine, you need to check the katastr yourself. The Czech Office for Land Registry offers a free service that alerts you to any changes—like a new easement or a zoning restriction added without your knowledge. That’s your best shield against surprise costs or legal battles.
And don’t assume these only affect big landowners. Even if you own a small apartment, your rights could be limited by things like mandatory building maintenance rules, shared access paths, or even restrictions on renting out the unit. These aren’t just paperwork—they directly impact your freedom, your investment, and your daily life.
What you’ll find below are real stories from people who learned the hard way. One bought a house only to find out he couldn’t install solar panels because of a historic preservation rule. Another lost her deposit because the previous owner had already granted a right of way to a neighbor, and the contract didn’t mention it. These aren’t theoretical risks—they’re everyday realities for Czech homeowners and investors.
