In order to secure performances owed in the form of an annuity as consideration for the building right, the owner may request from the holder of the building right at that time the mortgaging of the building right entered in the land register as an immovable for a maximum of three years' annuity.

If the annuity has not been fixed in the form of equal performances for each year, the registration of this statutory mortgage may be requested for the amount that would correspond to three years if the annuity were distributed equally.

MADDE 834 · 1. İpotek kurulmasını isteme hakkı

Malik, üst hakkı karşılığı olarak irat biçiminde borçlanılan edimleri güvence altına almak amacıyla, o tarihteki üst hakkı sahibinden en çok üç yıllık irat için tapu kütüğüne taşınmaz olarak kaydedilmiş üst hakkının ipotek edilmesini isteyebilir.

İrat, her yıl için eşit edimler biçiminde belirlenmemiş ise; bu kanunî ipoteğin tescili, iradın eşit olarak dağıtılmasında üç yıla düşecek miktarı için istenebilir.
