Problems with housing documents can become a serious challenge for property owners. Don’t be upset, it is possible to recover lost documents, and we will tell you how to do it.
When you discover that your housing documents are missing, the first step is to restore those that confirm your ownership. These may include a purchase and sale agreement, a shared-equity construction agreement, a donation agreement, an inheritance certificate, and others.
If the transaction was executed with the participation of a notary, you can get a copy of the document from the notary office. To obtain an official copy of the contract of sale or donation, you can contact the Multifunctional Public Services Center or Russian Registration Authority. If Russian Registration Authority cannot provide a copy of the contract, you can contact the regional bureau of technical inventory. Do not panic, restoring documents will not take much time. For example, you can get a new statement from the Unified State Register of Immovable Property in just 3 business days.
Since July 2016, the issuance of certificates of ownership of the apartment has been discontinued, and instead an extract from the Unified State Register of Immovable Property is used. For getting an abstract you must contact the territorial division of Russian Registration Authority, the Multifunctional Public Services Center or submit an online application through the portal "Gosuslugi".
Since 2017, the issuance of a cadastral certificate has also been discontinued, and information about the property is contained in an extract from the Unified State Register of Immovable Property.
The technical passport for the apartment contains a description of the main characteristics of the property, and it can be obtained from the regional Technical Inventory Bureau. To do this, you will need to write an application and present your passport, a receipt for payment of state duty and documents for the apartment.
Do not postpone the recovery of lost documents for later, especially if you plan to perform any real estate transactions. It is better to check in advance the availability of all necessary documents and restore them in order to avoid unnecessary hassle in the future.
In case of questions or difficulties, you can always seek help from specialists or lawyers who will provide the necessary support and advice on the restoration of housing documents. Remember that having all the necessary documentation for real estate will provide you with peace of mind and confidence in your rights.
