How long does it take to privatize an apartment: according to the legislation of the Russian Federation and in fact, how long does the process last in case of litigation?

How long does this process actually take?

Collection of documents. One calendar month is allotted for this.
Next, you need to check the condition of the object that will be subject to privatization, in our case, an apartment.
The privatization procedure itself in the territorial body of the Federal Service should take no more than 3 calendar weeks.

But this process can take three, four, even five months. If there is a trial, privatization can last up to one calendar year.

What can increase the time limit?

Let's start by studying the factors that may influence the increase in privatization periods:

Presence of queues in various government institutions.
Speed of response to requests. This applies to such bodies as the technical inventory bureau and the housing department.
The presence of debt obligations for utilities or other encumbrances on real estate.
Location of all privatization participants.

These factors influence the increase in terms, which will subsequently affect the duration of the privatization procedure. Therefore, instead of the allotted thirty days for collecting documents, you can spend from 45 days to one and a half months. Also, in order to submit documents to the local government body, you must stand in line. It can last for several days, as a result of which the submission of documents is extended for an indefinite amount of time.

Where to get the form

When all the documents necessary for privatization (we talked about them in this article) have already been collected, another question arises: where can I get an application form for the privatization of an apartment?

The following options exist:

compose yourself;
take the form from the district (city) administration;
download on our website.

Any of these options are allowed. The main thing is that all legal requirements for the document are met. In fact, there is no single application form. They will not refuse to accept your application and package of documents, but they may not allow privatization if it contains errors, inaccuracies, or false information.

What documents will be needed?

Let's remember what documents are required for privatization.

Passport of the applicant and other residents.
Consent from all apartment residents and children over 14 years of age. Children express their opinions with the permission of the guardianship and trusteeship authority. It is also worth registering for a permit within a few days. The permission is signed by a notary.
A social tenancy agreement that you have available, which means you don’t need to waste time getting it.
A technical passport for an apartment can be obtained from the BTI. It will take from a couple of hours to a couple of days to receive this document, depending on the date of the last application to the bureau. To obtain a registration certificate, you must wait for a specialist to arrive at your apartment to carry out the inspection procedure.
Certificate from the passport office in form F-33. It confirms the stated number of people living in the apartment. 2-3 copies may be required. These certificates have a validity period of 10 days. Therefore, they are made immediately before serving.
The house register can be obtained from the passport office. To obtain this document you need to spend several hours.
A receipt for payment of the state duty is attached. Its value is 2000 rubles. If several people are involved in privatization, the amount can be divided between them.
A certificate from the Unified State Register of Rights is proof that the citizen has not previously participated in privatization. To obtain this certificate you will have to spend 2 to 3 days.
If there are other family members who do not want to participate in privatization, you need to write a refusal. This procedure may take longer due to the fact that some relatives may be in other cities or even regions.

If your premises are in disrepair, privatization may be refused. In order to refute this fact and prove the suitability of the property for habitation, a judicial inspection is necessary, which can last up to one and a half months.

You can send a message to the executive authorities of the city of Moscow as part of a pre-trial appeal.

What to do in case of refusal?

Sometimes situations arise when the privatization procedure is refused. However, if all your documents are formed correctly, no problems will arise. Let's look at the main cases when a refusal may be issued.

You are participating in privatization again.
The redevelopment was carried out illegally.
The housing is currently in poor condition.
Disagreement of several residents or even one to privatization and refusal to draw up an application at the notary office in favor of others.

If you receive a refusal, you can go to court with all available documents. However, first you need to properly draw up a statement of claim using the form located on the court’s website. Do not forget about paying the state fee - this is a mandatory condition that provides for the possibility of accepting the case for proceedings.

In addition, you can contact the person who heads the Rosreestr body with a complaint. You can view a sample complaint on the Rosreestr website or download a regular standard sample on the Internet.

What is paid privatization?

In essence, paid privatization is the purchase of municipal real estate from the state for a certain amount of money. It is the need to purchase square meters that distinguishes paid re-registration from free. All other requirements, conditions and prohibitions for both processes are the same.

So, even for money you will not be able to privatize:

rooms in an existing dormitory;
emergency or dilapidated housing;
real estate located on the territory of closed military cities (ZATO);
office and departmental housing.

In 2021, you can privatize both residential and non-residential premises under municipal or state jurisdiction for a fee. Moreover, the procedure is available not only to ordinary citizens, but also to organizations and individual entrepreneurs.

In order to purchase premises at the cadastral price, businessmen need to enter into a lease agreement with the local administration for a period of 3 years or more. You can try to purchase some state real estate at special auctions, but not at cadastral value, but at market value, which is usually 10-15% higher.

Ordinary citizens also have the right to a paid re-registration, for example, if they have already taken part in a free one. By the way, the transfer of municipal property into private property for money is allowed an unlimited number of times.

There are usually no problems with obtaining permission for paid privatization. Such transactions are very beneficial to the state, because when they are carried out:

The number of economically active owners is increasing - non-residential real estate is used by businessmen as retail, office, warehouse and other types of commercial premises.
Responsibilities for maintaining the housing are transferred to the new owners.
The budget receives amounts of money equal to the cadastral or market value of square meters.
A new taxable object is registered.
Government programs related to providing housing for the country's population are being implemented.

Is it necessary to privatize a private house if it is owned?

If a private house is already owned by a person, then there is no need to privatize it, because privatization is the transfer of municipal or state apartments/houses into private ownership.

It is a completely different matter if the owner does not have documents for housing. But we are not talking about privatization here, but rather about confirming that housing belongs to a person.

Also, you should not privatize a house if it is the personal property of a citizen and not the property of the state . If the house is owned by a citizen or legal entity, this means that it does not belong to anyone else, so there is no need to privatize the housing.

Cost of housing privatization

In order to privatize your apartment, you need to prepare documents for submission to the BTI at the first stage of privatization.

Prepare for the fact that you will have to spend a lot of time and effort collecting a package of documents. In addition, for the preparation of most certificates and extracts, you must pay a state fee and other fees. Additional documents may also be required. And the shelf life of certificates is on average two weeks, so future owners who decide to deal with the procedure themselves will have to do everything in a short time. Read full information about free privatization here.

Many citizens are concerned about the question: how much does paid privatization cost? Until March 1, 2021, this procedure remains free; no one can say for sure how the cost of privatization will be calculated in the future. There is an assumption that the apartment will have to be purchased from the state at the cadastral value.

An equally popular question: is it possible to privatize an apartment with rent arrears? Read about it in our article.

How to arrange everything correctly

How to privatize a municipal apartment - detailed instructions for 2021. First, you should consult the privatization department of the district administration to find out what documents to collect, what the specifics of the procedure are in their area, and where to go next. Next, we submit all documents and certificates to the authorized body, each city has its own. Employees will study the application and draw up a privatization agreement, which must be signed by all participants. Then take the agreement to the MFC, where they will register ownership of the apartment. After registration, participants already become owners of the apartment.

Methods for accelerated privatization

If you need to speed up privatization, check out the existing options for urgent re-registration and choose the most suitable option for yourself.

How can you speed up the procedure:

Payment for urgency when preparing documents. It will help to significantly reduce the time required to collect certificates. For example, if in the usual manner it takes several months to prepare a technical passport for housing, then in an accelerated manner you can receive the papers in a week or a week and a half.

Turnkey privatization. It will save you from having to deal with re-registration. Just issue a general power of attorney for the agent. After which, on your behalf, he will prepare documents, draw up an application, conclude an agreement with the administration and register property rights in Rosreestr. All you have to do is visit the registrar to receive the title document for your property.

Privatization through the courts. Will help restore violated rights. If your application for privatization submitted to the administration was refused and you do not agree with the authorities’ decision, try appealing it in court. To ensure that the proceedings do not drag on for six months or more, take advantage of qualified legal assistance. The specialist will competently draw up a statement of claim and prepare all the necessary evidence the first time. As a result, the period for proceedings will be reduced to several months, after which your privatization rights will be restored in full.

Example. Three people were registered in the municipal apartment: a young woman, her daughter and a cousin. Over the past few years, the man appeared in the apartment extremely rarely and did not pay for utilities. And when he did come to “stay”, he almost always started drunken brawls. The woman is tired of this. She decided to privatize her housing as quickly as possible and exchange it for two smaller apartments in order to leave her negligent relative forever. Having heard about his sister's intentions, the brother said that he would never give his consent to this. The woman, after consulting with a lawyer, filed a complaint with the administration, asking to evict her cousin on the grounds that he did not actually live in the municipal apartment, did not pay his share of the rent, and was constantly rowdy. All her words were confirmed by written testimony from neighbors. After considering the appeal, the administration employees decided to initiate a forced eviction procedure and filed a corresponding statement of claim in court. Two months later, the court decided to forcibly evict the man, and his sister freely carried out urgent privatization, sold her home and moved with her daughter to another area.

Features of privatization of a house in a village

Before moving on to the issue of privatizing a house in a village, it is necessary to decide what status the house should receive:

If the house belongs to the category of non-residential premises (it is used only during the summer season, that is, from spring to autumn, because communications are not connected to the house), then the owner needs to prepare documents for privatization such as: an application, a civil passport of the future owner, documents , confirming the right to the object, site plan, cadastral passport, receipt of payment of state duty.
If a house in a village is intended for year-round living, then for privatization you need to prepare a more extensive package of documents, which includes the following papers: passports of all persons registered in the house or birth certificates of children (for persons under 14 years old), an application, documents for housing , an act on putting the house into operation, land management, a declaration on the property, which indicates the parameters of the house; cadastral passport; a certificate stating that the applicant or persons living with him have not previously participated in privatization; an extract from the house register about persons registered in the house, a receipt for payment of state duty.

Once the required package of documents has been generated, the applicant should contact the municipality that manages the property of interest. Usually, if you want to privatize a house in a village, you need to contact the village administration.

After registering the application, an agreement will be concluded with the applicant to transfer the house and the land under it into ownership . When the contract is signed, the applicant must contact Rosreestr and submit documents to register ownership of the privatized house.

You can privatize a residential building in the same way as an apartment, but you need to keep in mind that only real estate that is owned by the municipality is subject to privatization.

The process of appropriating a house is simple: first you need to collect a certain package of documents, then go to the municipality that owns the property. If everything is in order with the applicant’s documents, then the last step is to send the documents to Rosreestr to register ownership of the residential building.

Features of submitting an application

An application for privatization can only be submitted once in a lifetime. An exception is made only for minors, who can participate in the procedure twice: before reaching adulthood and after it.
You can refuse to participate in privatization by drawing up the appropriate document. It must be certified by a notary. It should be remembered that a person who refuses automatically loses the right to his share, but retains the very possibility of privatization.
Some of the housing stock is not subject to privatization in principle: emergency real estate, apartments in closed communities, service housing, rooms in dormitories, and so on.

It is better to draw up an application for privatization of an apartment with the help of an experienced lawyer, so as not to miss a single important point. At a free consultation, our specialists will talk about the main points of contention, and they can also act as representatives of the client, taking on the entire privatization.

Rights acquired after privatization

After you have privatized the apartment, you can dispose of it at your own discretion, but within the framework of Russian legislation. So, you acquire the rights:

Conclude property transactions with the apartment (you can sell, bequeath, rent, etc.).
Add any person to the list of registered persons at your own discretion, without requesting permission from the municipality.
It is practically impossible to carry out redevelopment in a municipal apartment legally.
Use residential property as collateral if the need arises.

However, it is worth remembering that along with rights come responsibilities, namely:

payment of annual property tax;
the obligation to carry out major and current repairs at your own expense.

Rights of residential premises owners

The rightful owners can use a privatized house as they please - sell, donate, rent out.

If the owner decides to put his part of the residential building up for sale, then the relatives living there have the priority right to buy it. If within a month they agree to buy this part of the residential premises, a purchase and sale agreement will be drawn up. If there is a refusal, this part will be offered to third party buyers. Then anyone can purchase a share. You can rent out a room only with the consent of all residents.

Application requirements

The application can be written entirely by hand, on a form (partly printed and partly written) and completely on a computer. If you decide to fill out this document by hand, try to do it in as legible handwriting as possible. Any discrepancy in the stated information may serve as a refusal to privatize. For example, if the house or apartment number is illegible.

The form can be completed in either blue or black ink. But you shouldn’t choose bright colors (yellow, green, red, etc.). Firstly, this is contrary to the norms of office work, and secondly, it will show your frivolous approach to the problem and officials are unlikely to treat you with due respect.

In general, before drawing up an application, it is best to contact the authority where you are going to submit it. Some regions of the country have their own rules for drawing up a document.

Since when has it not been issued and what paper has replaced it?

The main regulatory act on which they rely when denationalizing residential premises is Federal Law No. 1541-1 as amended on July 4, 2017. This law “On the privatization of housing stock in the Russian Federation” spells out all the basic requirements that must be adhered to if you want to privatize public housing .

The reform carried out in 2015 introduced changes to the rules for registering real estate. In 2021, No. 218-FZ “On State Registration of Real Estate” came into force , after which for privatization, instead of the certificate described above, an extract from the Unified State Register began to be used.

An extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate is a certificate that contains certain information about a specific property located in the Unified State Register of Taxpayers.

The bulk of information about real estate located in the State Register is open to public access. Any citizen can freely submit a request to the Unified State Register of Real Estate and obtain information about certain property. It is possible to request an extract either in person or online.

An extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate since 2021 is the only legal evidence confirming the owner’s right to real estate.

What does an extract from the Unified State Register look like?

An extract from the Unified State Register can be obtained either in paper or in the form of an electronic document (if requested through the website of Rosreestr and State Services). The form was approved by order of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia No. 378 dated June 20, 2016.

The extract contains several sections, each of which contains certain information about housing:

Technical details:
price;
room area;
the number of floors or the floor number where the apartment or room is located.
Information about rights and copyright holder:
type of registration and its number;
paper or papers confirming the entry into possession of the housing premises;
possible restrictions on real estate (pledge, arrest, etc.).

The statement is valid for 30 days. The fresher the document, the more trustworthy it is.

Not all information in the Unified State Register is available to the public; some blocks of information have access restrictions. These are:

content of title documents (only information about restrictions is open);
information about the ownership of other citizens or about the real estate that once belonged to them;
information about the legal capacity of property owners.
