The full explanation

If a co-owner of a unit decides to sell their share to a non-owner, the other co-owners have a pre-emption right to purchase that share instead. If multiple co-owners wish to exercise this right, each is entitled to buy a portion of the share proportional to their existing ownership in the unit. This right does not apply if the sale is to a spouse, descendant, ascendant, or relative up to the fourth degree. This legal mechanism helps maintain stable ownership within shared family or investment units.
