What does sectional title mean?

Sectional title refers to a property that is part of a complex, estate, or other such group-owned development.

This is in contrast to a freehold property, which is a standalone property independent of surrounding buildings.

Sectional title ownership means being part of a Body Corporate that manages the estate, sharing the administration costs and decision-making.

Sectional title estates often include communal facilities such as a swimming pool, security features, and children’s play areas.

Sectional title properties have become more popular as home buyers seek greater security and a sense of community.
