How do you know if the apartment is privatized or not? Basic methods

Privatization is a form of transformation of property through transfer to private hands. The purpose of the process is to attract a more efficient way of property management. Depending on the type of object, privatization of an apartment, land and property enterprises is singled out. This question may interest, for example, the relatives of the deceased person who want to sell the house. More details about where and how to find out whether the apartment is privatized or not, read in this article.

Access to data

To date, in Russia, most of the housing is privately owned. After the entry into force of the Federal Law "On Privatization", Russian citizens can receive free of charge the right to own the housing facilities they use. But some of the apartments are still in state or municipal ownership. Therefore, free privatization of the apartment was extended until 2018.

The parliamentarian made this decision, since the majority of citizens who occupy housing in emergency or dilapidated premises may lose the right to change their form of ownership. And persons who are registered as in need of square meters, may not have time to use the same right.

Privatization of an apartment legally allows citizens to make sales transactions, transfers by inheritance, etc. Participants in the process can obtain reliable information about the facility.

How to find out if the apartment is privatized or not

The easiest and most convenient way is to request information from Rosreestr. The same option would work if the housing was privatized before January 31, 1998, but then it was the object of a transaction of purchase, sale, gift or exchange. All this information is displayed in the Unified State Register of Rights to Real Estate (EGRP). This is the largest database created in 1998 with the aim of implementing state control over the implementation of transactions with real estate. In addition, it contains information on the existence of arrests or encumbrances. Any citizen of Russia can obtain information on the object by providing:

• identification;
• Request for data request;
• Receipt for payment of duty.

For legal entities this list has been expanded:

• Certificate of state registration of the institution;
• statutory documents;
• An extract from the govermenter;
• Document on assignment of TIN;
• Power of attorney and the passport of the representative of the organization.

That's where to get a certificate of privatization. The document is valid for 30 days. The information is 100% correct only on the first day of receipt of the paper. Therefore, the document should be provided to interested parties as soon as possible. If there is no data in the EGRP database, then the process of changing the form of ownership did not take place at all or was formalized before 1998 and no deals were concluded on the object.

How to obtain data through the Privatization Department

You apply to the Registration Chamber and fill out the application form. The application form is issued by the employee. A copy of the passport is attached to the document, and for legal entities an additional certificate of state registration of the company, statutory documents, a memorandum of association, a notarized power of attorney will be required. The state fee can be paid directly to the Registration Chamber through the cashier. Further, the employee will issue a "Receipt for acceptance of information for processing", in which the deadline for receipt of the statement will be indicated. Usually it is three days. On the appointed day it is necessary to come to Rosreestr with a passport, a receipt and pick up the original statement with a live signature of the registrar. The information on the privatization of the apartment contains the following data:

• Cadastral number of the object;
• name;
• Purpose;
• Exact area;
• address;
• The full name of the rights holders, the share of each of them;
• Existing restrictions;
• Existence of an agreement of equity participation;
• Information about the current judicial requirements.

Information is provided on a fee basis. The amount depends on who is requesting the data. Individuals need to pay 200 rubles, legal entities - 600.

Alternative method

Where else can I find out whether the apartment is privatized? The key moment in the solution of this issue is the estimated time for changing the form of ownership. The law was adopted in 1991. The following 7 years, this issue was handled by the Bureau of Technical Inventory (BTI). Each department of privatization establishes its own procedure for providing data and issuing certificates.
