The printout of owner apartments shows a “Notification by the custodian of safekeeping documents” restriction for the apartment. What does this mean?

The purpose of the restriction is to provide information about the housing company’s ongoing RS procedure and prevent the registration of entries and restrictions other than those from the custodian of safekeeping documents. The RS procedure is a security system in accordance with the Housing Transactions Act for the buyer of a new property that is still under construction. 

In the RS procedure, the custodian of safekeeping documents (a bank or the Regional State Agency) notifies the new owners of the shares, as well as pledges and possible restrictions, for registration in the Residential and Commercial Property Information System.
