How to privatize an apartment in 2021 through the MFC, State Services

Last news

State employees living in the industrial center of Nevinnomyssk, located in the Stavropol Territory, were allowed by local authorities to privatize service apartments free of charge. This step was taken to attract teachers and doctors to work. In a developing industrial city there is a shortage of such specialists.

An apartment privatized by the owner, after his death, can become the property of the state, if there are no heirs and if no one has claimed the rights to the property after six months. Housing is transferred to the territorial fund for social use and transferred to families under a drawn up social rental agreement.

What is the price

You can privatize housing yourself or use the services of an agency.

For the privatization of an apartment, the following payments must be made:

State duty (registration of property rights) for each family member is 2000 rubles.
Production of a technical passport and floor plan (ranges from 1200-3000 rubles, for urgent registration the fee is 10000 rubles)
Registration of a cadastral passport costs 460 rubles.
Certificate of family composition (issued free of charge).
Information from your personal account (an extract is issued free of charge).
Transfer of apartment (notarial agreement) 1000 rub. and more.

The state duty is paid by each participant in the privatization.

One registration certificate is ordered (copies are made if necessary). You can pay in a bank or online. Receipts are attached to the package of collected documents.

There may be additional costs in the following cases: if unauthorized redevelopment was carried out, the fine will be 1000-2500 rubles, and registration of redevelopment at the Technical Inventory Bureau costs between 45-100,000 rubles.

The need for urgent registration can cost 20,000 rubles. and more. Registration of privatization can be expedited by contacting the agency. Payment for services in agencies is very high and varies in regions. Moreover, state fees are not included in the payment for services.

Registration cost

The privatization procedure itself is free. No taxes are charged for its implementation.
But you need to understand that you will have to pay money to some authorities for issuing the required documents. For example, obtaining a technical plan and passport will cost about 1,500 rubles. You will have to pay 500 rubles for an extract from the register. A certificate of non-participation and a notarized power of attorney cost the same amount. The state fee for registration of the contract is 1000 rubles. The state fee for documentary proof of ownership is 2,000 rubles.

Thus, apartment privatization is available to Russian citizens. The most convenient way to carry out this procedure is to contact the department of the Multifunctional Center. It is important to know the features and nuances of privatization: who has the right to submit documents, what kind of housing can be registered as personal property, what to do if the state refuses.

With debts

Before people living in an apartment decide to privatize it, they live in it for a long time. It happens that they have arrears in paying for utilities. If a citizen living in such an apartment decides to privatize, then obstacles arise.

Management companies and organizations for debtors:

Documents (certificate, extract) are not issued.
Organizations carrying out privatization refuse to accept documents.

These actions are illegal. If there is a debt for rent, employees of the relevant authorities are required to issue extracts and certificates. Authorized structures do not have the legal right to refuse to accept an application for privatization of housing.

Accumulated debts for housing and communal services do not affect the privatization process.

What do the deadlines depend on?

The period of privatization depends on many factors:

The preparation of each document is a separate process that can take quite a long time. The term here depends both on the standards (where they exist at all) and on the workload of the performer.
If any documents are missing or there are errors in them, privatization will be refused with an indication of the reason. In such a situation, you need to quickly solve the problem and resubmit the papers. As a result, the period is increased by the number of days required to correct the papers and by the same 2 months of consideration, which will begin to count from the date of the new application.
Queues can also play a role. In some cases, you will only have to stand in them for several days before you can get an appointment. And then wait the same amount of time to get the finished document. This problem is relevant mainly for large cities.
Irresponsible attitude of privatization participants towards the procedure itself. This is perhaps the most important factor influencing the timing of privatization. Often, only one person deals with the problem, involving other residents if necessary. For example, when they need to personally go and fill out certificates or put their signatures. If one of these “involved” persons does not do everything on time, then there is a possibility that some of the documents will expire, which means that many papers will have to be ordered again.

To speed up the procedure as much as possible and eliminate many problems, it is recommended to engage an experienced legal representative. Having received a power of attorney, he collects the documentation on his own and the only thing required of the residents is to put their signatures.

If you have already participated in privatization

Participation of a citizen who has reached the age of majority in free privatization is possible once. Both in the event that a person received ownership of housing, and in the case of shared participation in privatization, the repeated right to privatization is lost.

But there are categories of people who can participate in free privatization a second time:

Children under the age of majority. They participate in privatization before reaching adulthood and after.
People who have lost their property as a result of a terrorist attack or climate disaster.
Immigrants from former republics that were part of the Soviet Union and from the Far North, who simultaneously abandoned property in favor of the state.

By proxy

A power of attorney in this situation is necessary if the future owner of the home is in the hospital or has a limited amount of free time to collect all the necessary papers.

The cost of a power of attorney starts from 502 rubles. and higher. It all depends on the notary’s office, which will complete the privatization transaction and draw up a power of attorney.

If it is not possible to come to the notary in person, you can call him to a place convenient for the principal, but, of course, you will have to pay extra for all these services.

also depends on the type of power of attorney:

Simple power of attorney (from 101 to 502 rubles).
General power of attorney (from 801 to 2001 rubles).

When drawing up a simple power of attorney with the right to another person to privatize an apartment, the future owner of the living space is obliged to provide the notary with his own passport and documentation that will confirm the existence of the right to occupy this living space.

Special attention should be paid to the fact that the drawing up of a notarized power of attorney is carried out on special paper, and after the execution of this document, data about it must be entered into the proper register of powers of attorney.

A general power of attorney takes into account the further sale of the privatized home, since the owner of this document receives almost unlimited rights, allowing him to collect documents, put his own signatures, etc.

The execution of this document is carried out only by an authorized notary company, since no seller or buyer will deal with a person whose documents do not contain any details.

In addition, the execution of this kind of power of attorney in the presence of a notary makes it possible to provide an additional guarantee that the applicant has agreed to its preparation of his own free will.

Through MFC

You need to contact your nearest center. There you can fill out an application in accordance with the sample or you can put your signature on the application drawn up by an MFC employee. Attach documents to the application. All citizens who are participants in the privatization must sign the application.

After receiving the documents, the center specialist will set a date for further paperwork. To formalize the contract on the specified date, everyone involved in the privatization must come to the MFC. Be sure to bring your passport with you. The completed agreement is submitted again to the MFC to register ownership. The MFC will issue it within 9 working days.

Term according to the Law of the Russian Federation

In accordance with Article 8 of Law No. 1541-1, which primarily regulates the privatization procedure with all its features, the procedure should take no more than 2 months. However, the countdown starts from the moment all documents and the application are submitted. This is already the very end of privatization and right here nothing depends on the applicant. But the time it takes to collect all the necessary documentation is not regulated anywhere and can range from several days to several months.

FAQ

Can I privatize housing without providing the consent of the tenant who has already formalized the privatization of the residential premises?

Yes. Privatization of housing can be carried out without providing the consent of a person who has already used the right to free privatization of another premises intended for housing.

Is it possible to discharge a person who is registered in a privatized apartment?

If he is the owner, then he cannot be written out. Deprive a person of registration and evict him, possibly by court decision. But you need to provide strong evidence. This may be a long-term absence and the presence of other housing, as well as a violation of the rights of people living together. But then the court must present evidence: police reports or the Management Campaign, written testimonies from residents.

Can I privatize the apartment where I live with my mother? She is ill. How to do it?

If your mother wants to take part in privatization, she can draw up a power of attorney from a notary to carry out privatization in equal shares for two. If she does not want to participate in privatization, then the refusal must also be formalized by a notary.

Payment for realtor services

When collaborating with a realtor, several stages can be distinguished: first, the terms of this cooperation are agreed upon, then an agreement is concluded in which they are fixed, the realtor is given a power of attorney to represent the client’s interests, and he begins work.

Negotiation of conditions

You will have to pay for privatization services, depending on the city in which it is carried out and the prices of a particular company, an amount of approximately 12,000 to 40,000 rubles. The first meaning can be found more often in small towns, and the second – in Moscow.

But this is for ordinary privatization; if it is burdened by a legal dispute, then agency employees will have to spend significantly more time, which means the price of their services will be much higher - usually several times higher. How much the price will increase will depend on the specific situation for which it is necessary to go to court.

Conclusion of an agreement

After the conditions have been discussed, it is necessary to record them in writing by concluding an agreement with the agency, which clearly indicates the rights and obligations of the parties, as well as other nuances of cooperation.

There are two main options for the distribution of responsibilities, which should be reflected in the agreement: in the first, the customer himself prepares the documents, after which the real estate agency completes the registration. In the second, which will cost more, the agency takes full responsibility for the design, and the client’s participation in it will be minimal.

When concluding a contract, it is important to read it carefully, which many do not do, believing that since they are not specialists, there is no point in it. In fact, it is important to discuss all those points that seemed unclear and find out in detail exactly what scope of services the company will provide in order to avoid unpleasant surprises in the future. The same applies to the rights and obligations of the parties.

Issuing a power of attorney

In order for realtors to work, they will need to issue a power of attorney for privatization.

If the power of attorney is drawn up correctly, then it clearly outlines the terms of reference of the agent for whom it is issued, and he does not receive anything extra - and rumors about various kinds of fraud carried out under the guise of a power of attorney are mostly fiction or a serious exaggeration. Therefore, you should not be afraid to draw up a power of attorney; it does not imply any risk of being left without registered real estate, and only gives the right to collect the necessary documents.

The main thing is to clearly state to the notary when drawing up what powers you intend to transfer. Since we are talking about privatization, it is necessary to include a clause stating that the power of attorney does not give the person for whom it is issued the right to alienate it - in this case, the housing will definitely not be re-registered to a third party.

Where and how to pay the state fee

You can pay the state fee in various ways:

Banks . The easiest and most affordable way. It is enough to visit any branch of any bank and at the cash desk express your desire to pay the state fee. Conveniently, there are a lot of bank branches everywhere.
Post offices . The second most popular option is in many ways similar to the previous one. Its only drawback is the frequent long queues at the post office. As a result, you will have to wait a long time.
Stationary terminal . This method is also analogous to paying through a bank, but instead of visiting a cash desk, the operation is performed at a terminal (or an ATM, if it has such a function). Fast, simple and convenient, however, people who do not use such devices on a regular basis may have problems with control. This is usually resolved by calling a consultant.
Government services . Another quick way to pay the state fee is on the State Services website. There is a special form where you just need to enter all the data and confirm the operation.
Online payments . Another analogue of payment through a bank, but in this case you don’t even need to leave your home. Everything is done in the personal account of the bank where the applicant is served (and almost everyone has them).

Sample receipt for payment of state duty

After payment, be sure to request a receipt with a stamp and signature. If this is not possible (when paying remotely), you will have to print this document separately.

Is it needed?

How to privatize an apartment if there is no warrant? Since the document is not currently valid, it is not included in the package of papers for the process . But this is only if a rental agreement is concluded with citizens in return.

There are three types of contracts between citizens and homeowners: social, gratuitous and commercial rental.

The contracts contain information about the address and area of the property. When concluded, they include everyone registered at the address. An agreement can be concluded on the basis of a previously received order.

If paper is available, the process will go faster. If lost, you will have to spend time restoring it .
