Registration of an apartment in the property: rules and nuances of the bureaucracy

If you bought an apartment in a new building, you need to legalize your ownership. Registration of an apartment in the property is an obligatory procedure, without which you can not sell, bequeath real estate and get a bank loan.

If the apartment in the new house is purchased under a contract on share participation in construction, then you should first wait for the developer to sign the protocols on the distribution of residential and non-residential real estate. On the basis of these securities you will receive a document on the implementation of the investment contract. Having received such an act, do not start registration of ownership of real estate, until the developer notifies you that he opened the registration address of the house in the State Register. After the house gets on this list, you must decide on how you will formalize the property in the property.

Registration of property can be entrusted to a private organization. This will save you trouble, but it will require significant monetary costs.

You can allow documents to be collected by the developer. In this case, you will have to write a power of attorney for the registration of the apartment in the property.

If you are ready to take time off and spend time in lines, then you can collect all the necessary documents yourself. But before you start the registration of the apartment in the property, do not forget to take a proxy from the developer for registration. Then, with the originals and copies of the contract for the purchase of real estate and the act of fulfilling the contract, you should contact the Federal Bureau of Technical Inventory. They will remove copies of these documents, and after payment of the state fee, you will be allowed to apply for explication. The explication usually looks like a table in which the dimensions of the total, living space and each apartment are indicated. After it engineers BTI will make a cadastral passport for an apartment. In accordance with the law on the municipal cadastre, without this paper the design of the apartment is not allowed.

Now again about the documents. You should have: the developer's power of attorney for registration; Two copies of the contract for the purchase of the apartment; Two copies of the act on the fulfillment by the developer of its obligations; Explication of the apartment; Cadastral passport; Receipt of payment of state duty. Only having received all listed papers, you can apply to the State Registration Service.

In Rosreestr you will have to stand the line for filing documents and an application for registration.

You can receive a certificate of registration of the title in two weeks. Sometimes it takes about a month to wait.

Some private entrepreneurs skillfully use the bureaucracy of the state system and offer people an accelerated registration of a certificate of ownership for an additional fee. Having received such an offer, you should make sure that the firm has the appropriate authority and its activities are registered. It is desirable that this organization was a subsidiary of Rosreestr and was in the same room. Otherwise, you can become easy prey for scammers and even lose an apartment.
