Indiviso (Undivided Share / Common Interest)in-dee-VEE-so
Indiviso is the percentage of undivided interest a condominium unit owner holds in the common areas and infrastructure of the property. Under Quintana Roo's Ley de Propiedad en Condominio, each unit's indiviso is fixed in the escritura constitutiva and determines the owner's share of voting rights, maintenance fees and reserve fund obligations.

How it works
In Quintana Roo condominiums, the indiviso appears as a percentage next to the unit size in the escritura or fideicomiso deed. A unit with 2.5 percent indiviso owns 2.5 percent of the pool, lobby, hallways, elevators and other common property. That percentage cannot change without amending the master deed. The indiviso directly sets the owner's vote weight in the condominium assembly and the proportional share of monthly cuotas de mantenimiento. Larger units typically carry higher indiviso percentages, reflecting greater use of shared facilities. Developers usually calculate indiviso based on each unit's built area divided by the total built area of all private units, though some allocate by sale price or usage factors. Buyers should verify the indiviso matches the unit size and confirm the total of all units sums to 100 percent, as allocation errors can trigger governance disputes and unequal fee burdens.
