Extract on registered rights to an apartment

State registration of rights to real estate is the only valid evidence of the existence of any right to an apartment (Clause 5, Article 1 of the Federal Law of July 13, 2015 No. 218-FZ “On State Registration of Real Estate”). Information on registered rights to residential premises is contained in the Unified State Register of Real Estate (USRN). According to paragraph 1 of Art. 62 Federal Law dated July 13, 2015 No. 218-FZ “On state registration of real estate”, such information can be provided upon request of interested parties in the form of an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate .

EGRN information (with the exception of data to which access is limited) is publicly available , which is why any person can receive an extract of registered rights to a specific apartment.

As a rule, the need to obtain such an extract arises when making real estate transactions, registering a deed of gift or inheritance, dividing property and other property disputes, for provision to creditors or as evidence in court.

In this case, it is necessary to pay attention to the fact that:

• Information about registered rights to an apartment represents information about the copyright holder of a specific property, as well as the type of right registered in the Unified State Register and the size of the copyright holder's share in this right.
• In addition to information about registered rights, the extract must also contain a description of the characteristics of the apartment (address, total area, number of rooms, floor, etc.), an indication of existing restrictions and encumbrances, information about current legal claims and declared rights of claim, as well as objections to them (clause 7 of article 62 of the Federal Law of July 13, 2015 No. 218-FZ).

The register of rights may contain other information about the apartment of interest and its owner, in particular:

• content of title documents;
• generalized information about the rights of an individual;
• information about the legal capacity of the copyright holder, etc.

However, this information is limited to public access and can only be provided to an exhaustive list of entities:

• owners and their representatives;
• local authorities;
• law enforcement agencies, etc.

An extract on the rights to an apartment can be provided to a citizen in the form of an electronic document or on paper. The legal force of documents, regardless of the form in which they are presented, is equivalent .

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

This document has a specific form, which is established by Order of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia dated March 22, 2013 No. 147 “On approval of document forms in which information contained in the Unified State Register of Rights to Real Estate and Transactions with It is provided.”

A sample extract from the Unified State Register for an apartment looks like this:

What it contains

In the extract from the Unified State Register you can find the following information about the apartment:

• the address of the object of interest, its area, floor location in the house and purpose;
• graphical plan;
• full name of the owner (name of the organization for a legal entity);
• the date of registration, its number, as well as the document providing the basis for ownership of the specified apartment;
• encumbrances imposed on the property, if any (if any, the basis for this restriction is indicated: mortgage or other);
• cadastral number assigned during registration, designated cadastral value.

In other words, this document contains information that was previously displayed in different sources: in the cadastral passport and an extract from the Unified State Register, but now all the basic information is in a single extract.

Information about the transfer of ownership of the apartment

Information on the transfer of ownership rights to a specific apartment is information in the Unified State Register containing the “history” of the transfer of rights to a specific property, indicating all registered copyright holders who owned the apartment in the chronological order of ownership, indicating the date of registration and the date of transfer of rights to each of them.

Previously, the specified information was among the information to which general access was limited, and it was provided only to certain categories of subjects. However, information about the transfer of rights from October 1, 2013 was excluded by the legislator from the restrictions and today is publicly available .

Thus, information about the previous owners of the apartment can be obtained not only by copyright holders, law enforcement and regulatory authorities, but also by any other persons, including potential buyers .

Information on the transfer of ownership rights to an apartment is presented to the interested party in the form of a separately executed document - “Extract from the Unified State Register of Rights to the Property”.

The document provided to the citizen must contain the following data :

• name and purpose of the property, cadastral and inventory numbers, area and address of the property of interest;
• about each of the apartment owners according to the order specified in the state register;
• the type of right registered for each of the former owners, the date of registration and the size of the share in the right for each of them;
• date and number of the record of termination of the right of each owner;
• current information about the currently registered right to an apartment;
• on documents that are the basis for state registration of the transfer and termination of rights to an apartment.

The information contained in such an extract is current at the time the interested party submits a corresponding request to the registration authority.

Example

Citizens B. and K. intended to conclude a transaction for the purchase and sale of an apartment. Analyzing the real estate documents presented by B., K. drew attention to some features of the extract from the Unified State Register, due to which he had doubts about its authenticity. In order to avoid a deal with a fraudster, K. decided to obtain such an extract on his own, for which he submitted the necessary application to the local branch of Rosreestr, along with which he presented a copy of his passport and a receipt for payment of 200 rubles. state duties.

After some time, K. received by mail the required extract, according to which B. was not the sole owner of the apartment, but had only ¼ of the ownership of it. Based on the information received, K. canceled the transaction and filed a corresponding statement of fraud with the internal affairs authorities.

What is the difference between a paper statement and an electronic one?

Paper and electronic statements have the same legal force and contain a complete list of information about the property. But there is a main difference between them – the printing format. A blue wet stamp is affixed to the paper document and certified by the signature of the manager. The electronic statement is sent with a digital signature and stamp.

How else do these types of statements differ:

State duty when receiving an extract from the Unified State Register for an apartment

As already mentioned, in order to receive an extract from the Unified State Register, the interested person must attach to the request for information a document confirming payment of the state duty . This could be a payment receipt, check order, payment order, etc.

The specific amounts of the state fee charged for providing information from the Unified State Register are established by Order of the Ministry of Economic Development No. 650 dated December 16, 2010. The amount of the state fee will vary depending on the required extract, as well as the form in which it is provided.

According to it, the fee for providing information and making extracts from the state register is charged in the following amounts:

• For an extract in the form of a paper document received upon request submitted at the location of the property: government agencies and individuals. individuals - 200 rubles, organizations - 600 rubles.

Fee for providing information

For providing a paper statement, a state fee of 200-900 rubles is charged, and an electronic one - from 150-300 rubles. The service itself is considered free. Everything is processed quite quickly in 2-3 days. The paper version may take longer - about a week. The cost also depends on the status of the requested person. For legal entities prices are much higher.

For registration of real estate or land in the register, the state duty is paid in a much larger amount. Prices for this service can reach 2-22 thousand rubles. Registration can only be carried out by the owners or their legal representatives.

Validity period for an extract from the Unified State Register for an apartment

Domestic legislation does not contain any specific provisions regulating the validity period of documents containing information from the state register of rights to real estate. Based on this, and also on the fact that such an extract from the Unified State Register is not a regulatory act, its validity period is determined based on the relevance of the information it contains.

In turn, the information contained in such a document will be relevant until changes are made regarding the rights to the apartment, information about which is contained in the extract.

Thus, the validity period of a particular extract will depend on changes made to the register.

But it is necessary to take into account some features:

• Organizations (banks, notaries) that require the provision of statements as part of certain packages of documents independently establish the terms of their validity. As a rule, such periods do not exceed 1 month from the date of issue of the extract.
• Citizens fear for the “legal purity” of apartments and possible fraudulent actions, which is why when conducting real estate transactions, as a rule, they require extracts issued no later than two weeks before the transactions.

The above must be taken into account when preparing documents for transactions. Thus, with the party requiring the provision of an extract, it is necessary to initially agree on the terms of its validity at the time of concluding contracts/submitting documents. The agreed deadlines must be taken into account when applying for an extract.

Design options

To obtain the necessary information regarding real estate, it is necessary to submit a corresponding request to the responsible authority that stores and provides such information. There are several options for submitting a request and each of them has a different response time.

• Personal application to the institution with the submission of a written application and the applicant’s passport;
• Mailing. In this case, only copies of documents certified by a notary are included;
• Submitting an electronic request through the service. Around the clock, in just 10 minutes, you can get complete information about the property according to official data from Rosreestr.

When appearing in person to receive an extract for an apartment, land, private house or other real estate, it does not matter which registry authority to submit the application to. That is, it is not necessary to apply specifically at its location, since the data is available through a single database throughout the Russian Federation. In this case, the resulting document will be official and can be presented to any authority if necessary. As for the postal item, it is advisable to send it by registered mail with notification in order to know for sure that the request has been received and to note the deadline for receiving a response.

What is it for?

Due to the completeness of the information presented in the document, the extract is applicable in the following cases:

1. To confirm ownership of an apartment that is involved in a commercial transaction.
2. For assessment of market value carried out by authorized organizations.
3. When carrying out non-commercial transactions.
4. In case of disputes related to an apartment or other real estate.
