výpis z katastru nemovitostí

Pronounced vee-pis z ka-tas-troo neh-mo-vi-tos-tee

In one line

An extract from the land register showing who owns a property.

Where you meet it

It is how you check that the person letting you the flat actually owns it.

The fuller explanation

The register is public. You can look a property up online or buy an official extract cheaply at a Czech Point counter. Compare the owner's name with the name on the lease; if they differ, ask for the written power of attorney.
