What does the privatization law say??

A non-profit gardening partnership is an organization under law. Territory is allotted by the state for its use; it cannot be used for other purposes.

In addition to having its own administrative structure, details, and charter, the partnership also issues special membership books to its members attesting to their affiliation with the non-profit organization.

In 1991, privatization started to be successfully implemented. Using the process to use the land for commercial purposes is forbidden. Only personal uses are permitted on the land, such as home gardening, vegetable gardens, and construction.

The Federal Law "On Dacha Amnesty" states that the procedure is greatly streamlined for participants who received land prior to 2001. If it arrives later, the process will get more difficult and you will need to gather documentation. While there are paid options, both options offer free registration.

Which laws control the relationship:

1. Land Code of the Russian Federation dated 25.10.2001. On land relations, including issues of property registration.
2. Federal Law N178, 21.12.2001. "On privatization". Regulates the basis and procedure for transferring ownership of plots from the state or municipalities.
3. Federal Law “On Dacha Amnesty” 2006. According to it, the free opportunity has been extended until March 1, 2031.
4. Amendments to the Basic Law dated 01.01.2015. They simplified the process, reduced the amount of paperwork, regardless of the time of obtaining the right to use.

Legislative acts are frequently modified. It is advised that you speak with legal counsel prior to initiating the process.

Who has the right and who doesn"t?

If a participant has a membership book, they can complete it. This serves as the foundation for verifying the allocation rights.

A portion of state property may be privatized once in a lifetime; subsequent registration is not permitted.

As per the legislation, the following are eligible for a free re-registration:

• having a 6-year contract for use 5 years after the start;
• large families;
• owners of real estate located on land (purchased, inherited, donated, etc. up to 25.10.2001.);
• those who signed a lease agreement earlier than 25.10.2001.;
• official owners of real estate who received the territory indefinitely.

Subject to verification, residents who have been granted authorization to construct a home and started the process have the only right, even if the project is not finished. Preemptive rights are another kind that are given to citizens who fit certain preferential criteria (e.g., large families, people with disabilities, etc.).

If beneficiaries refuse or break the terms, in this scenario, third parties may register the property. The same holds true for users who use in line with their involvement in the partnership.

A paid registration option is also available; the cost cannot go above the cadastral value. Under Rosreestr’s direction, regional OFS conducts the assessment.

If you take the proper procedures, privatizing a plot of land within a SNT (Summer Non-Profit Partnership) can be a simple procedure. This post will walk you through every step, from obtaining required paperwork to understanding legal specifications, so you can confidently secure ownership. Our detailed instructions will make the process of privatizing your land plot easy and stress-free, regardless of whether you’ve done it before or need a refresher.

Purposes of re-registration of ownership

The benefits and drawbacks of re-registration must be understood before you start the process.

Advantages:

1. The owner can completely dispose of the property: sell, inherit, donate, use as collateral, etc. The administration does not have the authority to demand the release of the territory.
2. There are clearly defined boundaries of the property, no disputes with neighbors, it is impossible to illegally appropriate part of the plot.
3. When the agreement for use according to membership in the partnership ends, there is no need to renew the agreement. This eliminates the possibility of non-receipt of land for use.
4. Privatized property is much easier to sell.
5. Construction of a house can begin without fear that the area will be taken away for government needs.
6. In accordance with Federal Law N93, through land surveying, determine new boundaries and add up to 10% of the existing area.
7. If the state decides to lay a highway or communications within the territory’s borders, the owner will be paid compensation.

Minuses:

1. The law allows you to use the opportunity only once.
2. In some cases, additional costs are required for a lawyer and land surveying. Occasionally you have to sue for ownership rights with the administration, which refuses registration.
3. In addition to contributions to the general treasury, the property will be subject to land tax, which is paid annually.
4. The owner is individually responsible for the condition of the property and the legality of the buildings on it.

It is advised to privatize in order to fully realize the potential of a summer cottage and to avoid relying on outside judgment. There are numerous additional benefits from this.

Varieties

Privateization can be done in two ways: individually and collectively. Every choice has subtleties, benefits, and drawbacks of its own.

Collective

Since every tenant takes part in the event, the process is typically delayed indefinitely. A designated individual is assigned to handle the design at the meeting; payment for this work is made separately.

Typically, a power of attorney signed by every member of the organization is granted to the chairman of the board, who serves as the authorized person.

Method:

1. At the meeting, determine an authorized representative, provide him with the opportunity to resolve legal issues on behalf of the participants.
2. Conduct preparations: land surveying, issue cadastral passports, collect necessary confirmations.
3. Draw up statements about the desire to transfer municipal or state land plots into the ownership of participants free of charge.
4. Take permission from the administration.
5. Contact Rosreestr and obtain a certificate of ownership for each applicant.

The refusal to privatize by one partnership member won’t have any bearing on the other partners. He will be able to take advantage of the chance to independently, or redeem from the state, if he so chooses.

Individual

If a citizen (or an official representative) makes a personal appeal, the procedure will move more quickly.

The algorithm

1. Appeal to the chairman of the partnership for provision of: charter, decision to join SNT, copying of the site, etc.
2. Carrying out land surveying to clarify boundaries is carried out at the expense of the future owner.
3. Submitting an application to the administrative authority.
4. Drawing up an agreement transferring land into sole ownership.
5. Completion of bureaucratic actions, registration with Rosreestr, obtaining a certificate of ownership.

Confirmation can be obtained in person, at the MFC, or by contacting State Services; the latter method requires two weeks.

Procedure for dacha amnesty

A simplified scheme can be used to privatize what was received for use prior to 2001. The process is followed in compliance with Federal Law No. 137, which was enacted on October 25, 2001.

The primary distinction is that the tenant petitions state agencies to approve a transaction. To get the final certificate, the tenant applies to Rosreestr right away.

You’ll need the site’s title document in order to accomplish this:

• certificate;
• agreement or act of provision for unlimited use;
• extract from the household ledger.

Stages of administrative

Divided into five general procedures, some of which are exempt from requirement for specific groups of citizens.

Preparation of a package of documents

Thus, the following is the list:

1. Statement. In it, the tenant expresses a desire to register a specific SNT territory as personal possession. If the boundaries have not yet been marked, land surveying will be required in order for a cadastral passport to be created for the site (Article. 39.15 of the Land Code of the Russian Federation). If the allotment is received for 6-year use, the citizen asks to close the contract.
2. Identity document (+ power of attorney, with the participation of a representative).
3. Consent of the wife/wife of the future owner, certified by a notary.
4. Confirmation of permission to use the site.
5. You will need to present a cadastral passport or a document explaining the absence.
6. Extract from the Unified State Register of Land Registers.
7. For civil servants of municipalities (holding a position according to the list approved by the constituent entity of the Russian Federation), confirmation of employment.
8. For large families – confirmation of conditions.
9. For other special categories – the right to receive benefits.

Depending on the particular land plot and the type of procedure, the list may need to be expanded.

Transfer of papers

Documents must be completed according to the form, be error-free, not expired, and have all necessary signatures. The owner of the privatized territory is identified in the extract from the Unified State Register as either the state or the municipality.

Give it to the municipal government if the first option is chosen. If the latter, to the Federal Property Management Agency’s local division.

The check is valid for thirty days; in the event that a discrepancy is found, you must add the missing package and fix any mistakes. As an alternative, pick a different plot of land.

Cadastral registration

This phase is reserved for individuals whose allocation is not recorded or necessitates delineating boundaries. The cost of hiring a cadastral engineer is borne by the applicant. You should get in touch with Rosreestr after drafting the act so that it can be registered in the cadastre.

Getting your application approved

The package is forwarded to the relevant authority upon receipt of the cadastral passport and an extract from the Unified State Register, after which the citizen is given a decision. It is prepared in writing, delivered, and serves as the foundation legally for carrying out the final step.

Decor

What should be sent to Rosreestr?

• statement;
• identification document of the applicant;
• decision of the municipality/Rosimushchestvo;
• duty payment receipt.

Costs:

• 350 RUR. to pay the duty;
• 200 RUR. for an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate;
• from 100 rub. notarial services.

What will the citizen ultimately receive and where to go with it??

If everything is supplied correctly, registration can be finished in ten days. A certificate of ownership is given to the citizen, who keeps it with him. The owner then has to pay land tax every year, which is equivalent to 0.3% of the value based on the cadastral valuation.

During the payment collection period, you can pay directly through the Federal Tax Service website, or the payment order is generated automatically and delivered to the recipient’s registered address.

If you feel the need or desire to leave SNT, you can do so by completing an application and sending it to the chairman.

How does the procedure and documents change if there are buildings (house, etc.) on the garden plot?.P.)?

If the building is going to be used for legal transactions (donations, inheritances, etc.), it needs to be registered separately. If not, there would be no need for this action.

When can they refuse and why??

There are various causes:

• ban from government agencies (without explanation);
• purpose of land for the needs of the state (construction, sowing, etc.);
• withdrawn from circulation;
• the applicant and the user are different people;
• the package of documents was collected incorrectly;
• the plot has already been privatized.
