The privatization process, launched in the 90s of the 20th century, allowed a large number of Russian citizens to take possession of residential premises that they had previously used under a social tenancy agreement. Not all people were able to take part in this process, so the question arose of who would get the municipal apartment after the death of the tenant. Personal property can be inherited by relatives or strangers. Obtaining municipal housing by heirs is problematic and depends on a number of factors.

Powers and obligations of a tenant under a social tenancy agreement

The tenant of municipal housing has a wide range of rights in relation to this real estate:

• grant the right to other people to live in an apartment free of charge or for a fee (unless this is prohibited by the norms of the current housing legislation);
• exchange residential premises for similar real estate from a fund owned by the municipality (according to the provisions of Article 72 of the Housing Code);
• use the capital repair service provided free of charge;
• use various services provided for money by public utilities.

The responsibilities of a municipal housing tenant are as follows:

1. Use the apartment strictly for its intended purpose (for the residence of the tenant and his family members).
2. Carry out routine repairs and constantly monitor the proper operation of communications in the residential premises.
3. Pay for services under the rental agreement, as well as utility bills, on time.

Re-registration procedure

The re-registration of a social tenancy agreement after the death of the tenant of the apartment takes place directly in the municipal local government authorities, which are authorized to deal with housing issues in a given locality. In some cases, it is possible to renew the contract through the Multifunctional Center if this institution provides similar services in a given locality.

Before contacting one of the institutions listed above, a citizen who lived in a municipal apartment with a now deceased tenant must:

• Agree with other residents that the contract will be reissued in his name;
• Discharge a deceased tenant from the apartment by contacting the migration service at the location of the residence and providing a death certificate;
• Prepare the required papers for renewal of the contract.

After the preparatory stage has been completed, a new agreement is concluded. A copy of it should be provided to the management organization so that appropriate changes can be made to the personal account for payment of utility services.

In the event that residents are unable to independently come to a decision about to whom the contract will be renewed, the issue must be resolved in court.

Features of registration and residence of family members

If the tenant rents municipal housing with his family, they must be indicated in the social tenancy agreement. The following persons fall into this category:

• wife husband);
• parents;
• children;
• tenant's dependents;
• other citizens living with the employer.

All persons specified in the contract have equal rights and obligations with the employer. New citizen-relatives can be registered only with the consent of all people included in the social tenancy agreement.

Persons who are not relatives can be registered in an apartment only with the consent of the municipality. If there are more people living in a residential building than required by the standards, the landlord has the right to refuse registration of other people. If we are talking about minor children of registered citizens, then they do not need to obtain an individual permit.

○ What rights do residents of non-privatized apartments have?

Citizens of the Russian Federation who have the right to use residential premises of the state or municipal housing stock on the terms of social rent, have the right to purchase them on the terms provided for by this Law, other regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation and regulatory legal acts of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, in common ownership or in the ownership of one persons, including minors, with the consent of all adults and minors aged 14 to 18 years who have the right to privatize these residential premises. (Article 2 of the Law of the Russian Federation “On Privatization” dated July 4, 1991 No. 1541-1).

In addition, the tenant is endowed with a list of rights that are regulated by Art. 76 Housing Code of the Russian Federation. In accordance with this law, he may:

• Moving third parties into the apartment.
• Sublease it.
• Allow temporary residents to stay.
• Exchange or replace the used apartment (subject to an agreement with the municipality).
• Require the landlord to: make major repairs in a timely manner, take part in the maintenance of common property, provide utilities in a timely manner and in full.

In this case, the tenant cannot sell or donate the living space.

Who gets municipal housing after the death of the main tenant?

Since the apartment transferred for the use of citizens under a social tenancy agreement is owned by the local administration, only it can dispose of it. Therefore, housing cannot be the object of inheritance.

If the tenant lived alone, and no one else is registered in the residential premises, after his death the apartment passes to the municipality. He can leave the apartment without tenants or transfer it to other citizens under a social tenancy agreement.

Good to know:

• Privatization of an apartment: where to start and where to go first
• Pros and cons of a non-privatized apartment
• Use of residential premises under a social tenancy agreement

If other people lived in the apartment with the tenant, they are given the right to continue renting the premises under the same conditions, but changing the information about the tenant.

When does the transfer of housing to the municipal fund take place?

Re-registration of a social tenancy agreement by one of the family members after the death of the tenant responsible for the apartment allows for the privatization of the apartment. This can be done if the deceased has already begun this process, but did not complete it due to death. Then his relatives receive a similar right or after re-registration of the DSN. But if a sufficient amount of time has passed since the death of the tenant, and none of the family members have applied and re-concluded the contract, or no other registered persons lived in the apartment, then the non-privatized housing again goes into the municipal fund.

The right to receive such an apartment is only available to a certain circle of persons by law who are citizens of the Russian Federation. These include:

• low-income citizens whose income is below the subsistence level in the region;
• persons who have nowhere to live and do not have their own housing;
• citizens who have a place to live, but the size of the allocated area is less than established;
• own housing is in disrepair or is temporarily subject to reconstruction;
• live together with patients who pose a threat to their health (for example, a chronic infectious disease).

All of the above persons are officially recognized citizens who need housing or improved conditions. In this case, the state can provide an apartment under a social rental agreement, where you will only need to pay for utilities and maintain living conditions in an appropriate manner. However, if there is a waiting list for such housing, you will not be able to move into a municipal apartment right away.

Features of a social tenancy agreement

Based on the agreement concluded by the parties, the tenant has the right to use the premises specified in the agreement indefinitely, as long as he does not violate the rules for using the property.

The contents of this agreement are established by the provisions of Resolution No. 315, issued by the Government of Russia on May 21, 2005. According to this legal act, the social tenancy agreement must contain the following information:

• specific description of the municipal property (exact address, characteristics);
• list of powers and obligations of the parties;
• procedure for making various changes;
• grounds for termination of the contract by agreement of the parties and unilaterally.

The annex to the contract indicates all citizens registered in the apartment and living with the tenant. They are responsible for the property in the apartment jointly and severally with the main tenant.

If during the use of social housing there is a need to make any changes to the rental agreement, this is carried out in accordance with the norms of the Russian Housing Code and other acts.

Citizens living in a municipal apartment can enter into a single rental agreement with the administration, according to which all specified entities are included in the family.

If none of the residents objects, the apartment can be re-registered to any of the citizens registered and living in it. Thus, the death of the main employer entails the emergence of such a right.

How to register a non-privatized apartment after death

A special procedure has been established for the succession of rights to a municipal apartment.

The main feature is that there is no actual inheritance, but a re-registration of the employment agreement to another person.

Inheritance of a given premises

A municipal apartment, by definition, belongs to the authorities of the relevant municipality and is considered the property of the state. So the successors of the deceased person will not be able to inherit. According to civil law, you can only leave your own property as an inheritance.

In succession to a municipal apartment, the social tenancy agreement is being reissued. As a rule, everyone who is registered in such housing has the right to live in it and use the premises on an equal basis. However, among them one is elected who will be responsible for the legal operation of the apartment.

This person is responsible for the safety of housing, for compliance with living standards in apartment buildings, etc. After the death of such a person, another is simply chosen to perform the functions of a responsible tenant.

To be a full owner of an apartment, it is necessary to carry out privatization. Everyone who is registered in the corresponding apartment and has the right to use it has the right to privatization. With privatization, they all become owners.

However, residents who have reached the age of 18 at the time of privatization may refuse to participate in privatization in favor of another resident or simply refuse.

Minor citizens do not have this right, so they become the owners of this apartment without fail.

Minors cannot independently register their rights to housing with the authorized body. So they are given a deferment until they turn 18.

How to re-register?

The administration of the relevant district is authorized to dispose of municipal housing. Therefore, the application must go there. You can also carry out the entire procedure through the MFC.

But before that, some mandatory steps must be taken. So, the first step is to check the status of the apartment. It must be eligible for privatization.

According to Art. 4 of Law No. 1541-1, the following categories of housing are not subject to privatization:

• with an officially established emergency condition;
• which is special-purpose housing (in military camps, closed facilities);
• service living quarters;
• located within zones with special environmental conditions.

If the housing does not have one of the above statuses, you can begin collecting documents. The exact list of required documents must be clarified with the administration or the MFC.

After submitting the documents and application, you must wait for the response from the authorized body. The response is issued within a month and if the administration approves the privatization, then the parties involved are invited to conclude an agreement.

After concluding such an agreement, it is necessary to register ownership in Rosreestr during a personal visit or on the website.

Only after this will the residents of the apartment have the right to dispose of it. If one of the owners dies, then inheritance is carried out in accordance with the general procedure. However, the owners can leave the apartment or a share in it to any person, even those who are not relatives or residents of the apartment.

List of documents

You can find out exactly what documents will be needed for privatization only at the administration or the MFC. However, the following documents must be submitted without fail.

Identification documents of residents participating in privatization:

• passports of all persons who are already 14 years old;
• birth certificates of persons under 14 years of age.

It is worth noting that privatization is the prerogative exclusively of citizens of the Russian Federation. Foreign citizens and stateless persons cannot obtain ownership of an apartment from the state.

You will also need documentation for the apartment, which includes:

• documents from the BTI and cadastre;
• an extract from the passport office indicating the circle of persons who are registered in the apartment;
• rental agreement for a municipal apartment;
• a certificate from a housing organization confirming the absence of utility debts.

In addition, depending on the situation, the following documents may be required:

• notarized power of attorney – if privatization is carried out with the participation of a representative;
• permission from the guardianship authority - when one of the persons participating in privatization is a minor and does not have legal representatives.

In exceptional cases, when the privatizing parties are not relatives, the administration requires an agreement on the shares in which the apartments will be privatized.

Such an agreement is drawn up by the residents themselves in simple written form.

Grounds for termination of a social tenancy agreement

There are several grounds for terminating housing legal relations under a social tenancy agreement:

• consent of both parties;
• identification of violations of the terms of the contract on the part of the residents registered in it;
• the inability to continue living in the apartment due to the demolition of the house or its reconstruction;
• termination of the agreement at the initiative of the administration in connection with a ruling of a court or other authorized body that has entered into force;
• seizure of a land plot with the provision in return of the right to reside in another municipal facility;
• rent arrears for more than 6 months;
• proven guilt of residents in causing significant damage to municipal housing;
• use of the apartment for other purposes;
• systematically committing actions that violate the rights of neighbors.

Unilateral termination of the contract is possible only through court.

What does living in an apartment provide under a social tenancy agreement?

After the conclusion of the contract, an indefinite right to use the premises arises as long as the accommodation complies with the law. The content of the social rent agreement is regulated by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 315 of May 21, 2005. The provisions of the contract must include information about housing, residents and the rights of the tenant and landlord.

The standard form for social employment must contain:

• an accurate description of the municipal facility (address, characteristics);
• list of rights and obligations of the parties;
• procedure for making changes and grounds for termination.

• Registration of inheritance for an apartment after death: documents, tax, rights

There is an annex to the agreement that reflects the names of all registered citizens who are jointly and severally liable along with the main tenant.

If in the process of using municipal housing there is a need to make changes, they are based on the provisions of housing legislation:

1. Citizens registered in such housing have the right to enter into a single contract for living space, subject to the inclusion of such persons in the same family (as happens when registering a marriage).
2. If the remaining residents do not express a negative attitude, in agreement with the municipality, the apartment is re-registered to any of the citizens already registered in the living space. The death of the main tenant is one of the reasons for re-registration of the right to use municipal housing.

Grounds for termination

• Apartment rental agreement: rules for drawing up

In rare cases, the question arises about terminating a social tenancy agreement. Such circumstances include:

• mutual consent of the parties;
• identified cases of violation of the contract by a tenant registered in the living space;
• impossibility of living in the house due to demolition and reconstruction, seizure of land with the provision of the right to live in another apartment;
• termination of the contract at the initiative of the municipality or other authorized body on the basis of a court order;
• arrears in payments for the apartment for at least six months;
• establishing the culpability of the residents for significant damage and destruction of the apartment;
• use of housing for purposes other than residence;
• violation of the interests of neighbors.

To terminate a contract on a unilateral initiative, you will need to go to court.

Re-registration of municipal property to another tenant

Each Russian region establishes its own procedure for submitting applications for re-registration of municipal housing. The main thing for tenants after the death of the tenant is to determine which of them will be a party to the contract. Before submitting the list of required documents, it is important to deregister the deceased relative.

When the municipality makes a decision to re-register the contract to another person, applicants must contact the housing management company, which will change the personal account information. According to Article 69 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation, a contract can only be re-issued in the name of an adult capable person.

The timing of re-registration depends on when employers submit the appropriate application and receive the consent of the municipality. If the administration refuses to re-sign the contract without good reason, the tenants need to go to court to protect their interests.

How to change?

Sometimes situations arise when a family loses a tenant for one of the following reasons:

1. The main tenant has moved to another apartment.
2. After the divorce, the spouse remained in the apartment, who is not the responsible tenant.
3. The citizen was sent to prison.
4. He went missing, which was established.
5. If a person dies.

The remaining residents can choose a new candidate from among themselves and contact the housing department with an application to conclude a new social rental agreement. The application must indicate what happened to the previous employer.

There is another situation. For example, 2 people live in an apartment, one of them is the tenant. The second one wants to change things. First he needs to contact the housing department with an application. A valid reason must be provided, such as that the other tenant is not paying the bills. This fact needs to be documented. A good proof would be an extract from the bank account through which the utilities were paid. If there are no reasons, then the municipality is unlikely to change anything.

In controversial situations, the owner can renew the contract by concluding it with both (several) tenants at once. In this case, everyone will be responsible for themselves and will receive a separate account for paying utility bills.

Important! If one of the residents decides to become a tenant against the wishes of the rest of the family members, then nothing will work out for him.

How to re-issue documents correctly?

So, there are serious reasons for changing the tenant, and all residents have reached agreement on a new candidate, what to do? Write an application to the housing department to recognize another person as the employer. Attached to it:

• A copy of the personal account.
• Copies of passports of all living family members.
• Extract from the house register.
• Lease agreement for this premises.
• Certificate of deregistration of the previous employer due to death or departure.

If the housing department has approved the application and entered into an agreement with the new tenant, you need to contact the housing department and present them with a new agreement. They, in turn, are required to change personal accounts and indicate the name of the new employer on receipts.

List of required documents

Re-registration of the contract will be possible when the tenant chosen by the residents appears at the municipality together with other citizens registered in the residential premises, submits an application to re-sign the contract indicating all persons present and attaches the following documents to it:

• residents' passports;
• a document confirming the death of the main employer (court decision, death certificate);
• original of the current social tenancy agreement;
• extract from the personal account.

After submitting the documents, the applicant must wait for a written response from the administration and re-sign the agreement with it.

Living in a municipal apartment is beneficial from a financial point of view. But if the main tenant dies, there may be problems with the continued residence of the remaining tenants in the premises. Often it is necessary to resolve the problem through the courts.

How to become one?

In order to become the main tenant in a municipal apartment, you need to enter into a social tenancy agreement in your name. This can be done by agreement with other family members. If an agreement cannot be reached, the housing department can appoint a tenant.

How to file a claim?

How to file a claim to become the main one? In accordance with Article 672 of the Civil Code and Article 82 of the Housing Code, any adult and capable family member can become a tenant with the consent of the existing tenant and other residents. Therefore, it is legally possible to ask the municipality, represented by the housing department, to renew the contract. How to change employer? To do this, submit a corresponding application.

However, such requests are not always satisfied. Therefore, you can file a claim for the same in the district court at your place of residence. There are standard templates for such applications, so submitting one will not be difficult.

The following documents are attached to the statement of claim:

1. Copies of passports of all participants.
2. Registration certificates.
3. A copy of the personal account.
4. A copy of the latest receipt, which confirms the absence of debt.
5. Social rental agreement for premises.
6. If the previous employer has left or died, you must provide a certificate of deregistration.
7. Receipt for payment of state duty.
8. Depending on the specific situation, other documents may be needed.

Important! In the event of a positive court decision, municipal authorities will be required to enter into a social rent agreement on new terms.

How to get

The legislation of the Russian Federation establishes clear requirements for citizens who are granted the right to receive municipal living space. Therefore, a positive decision is made only if the applicant belongs to the group of beneficiaries. Each submitted application is carefully checked to ensure compliance with all criteria, such as:

• whether the citizen has any real estate for living - an advantage for those who do not have any housing;
• in what conditions does the applicant live at the time of application - benefits for those who live in emergency premises;
• does anyone with a dangerous chronic disease live with the applicant - if so, resettlement is due;
• how much living space is there per person living in the applicant’s apartment or house - if less than ten square meters, this will also affect a positive decision.

In other words, when considering social protection bodies and the state, they give preference to low-income citizens. Obtaining low-income status in each region of Russia follows different requirements and depends on the average income level in the region. When calculating a family's monthly income, the income of each member will be taken into account, regardless of whether they all live in the same apartment or private house.

For military personnel, for example, there is a rule that they can apply for municipal housing only after twenty years of service or after ten years for beneficiaries.

Rules for using municipal housing

Tenants of public housing are forced to comply with all the rules that apply to it. There are quite a lot of them. In addition to the ban on sales, there are also a number of restrictive rules. They are:

• redevelopment of the internal space can only be done with the permission of the municipality;
• It is forbidden to carry out capital works on your own; they are carried out by a special service at public expense;
• Move-in of adult relatives is carried out with the permission of the owner.

Residents can carry out a number of works in public apartments at their own expense:

• redecorating;
• replacement of doors and windows exclusively in places provided for in the plan;
• improvement of living conditions through the introduction of removable technical equipment (air conditioners, for example).

For information: illegal redevelopment without the appropriate permit will be challenged by the authorities. The resident will receive an order:

• legalize construction (if possible);
• or dismantle the structures and restore the premises to their original form.

Agreement with housing and communal services

A person using a state apartment has certain rights. One of them is the right to receive utility services. They are provided on the basis of an agreement, the parties to which are:

• citizen;
• utility service or management company.

Important: the owner of the property (municipality) is not a party to the contract for the provision of utilities. The tenant is obliged by agreement:

The tenant is obliged by agreement:

• pay received bills;
• comply with regulatory requirements regarding the replacement of metering devices;
• do not interfere with utility company representatives inspecting relevant systems.

The service provider is obliged:

• provide them in full;
• maintain a personal account, calculate payments;
• disclose information important to clients;
• carry out repairs at the request of the recipient.

Important: refusal to pay fees for the use of municipal property and utilities for six months without a valid reason leads to the cancellation of the social tenancy agreement (eviction). This norm is given in paragraph 90 of the LC

The right to inherit an apartment

According to legal norms, a state-owned apartment remains the property of the local community until the tenant exercises the right to privatization. If a person dies, the living space is returned to the state. The municipality may transfer it to another employer.

In practice, this algorithm is used only in the event of the death of a single resident.

1. If family members of the main tenant are registered in the premises, they continue to use the apartment. Nobody will evict them. In addition, these individuals can use the privatization advantage themselves.
2. If relatives are not registered in the premises, then there is also a way out. It is necessary that the main tenant draws up a will with an order for privatization. This paper will be the basis for providing housing to the heirs. After receiving the warrant, it can be re-registered as property.

Attention: for direct reasons, municipal square meters are not subject to inheritance. We describe standard ways to resolve legal issues, but each case is unique and requires individual legal assistance

Rights of citizens living in a municipal apartment

Housing that is provided to citizens temporarily belongs to the state. Such property is called municipal property. Accommodation in the apartment is carried out on the basis of a social tenancy agreement. Citizens do not have the right to dispose of a residential property (sell, donate), but can own and use it.

In addition, the following rights are provided for those living in a non-privatized apartment:

• provide living space to other persons;
• exchange real estate with tenants;
• receive free capital repair services;
• use public services for a set fee.

At the same time, citizens also have responsibilities, for example, to take care of property.

One of the most common questions regarding rights to municipal property is whether a non-privatized apartment can be bequeathed. You need to focus on. The inheritance includes the property that belonged to the testator at the time of his death. If the apartment is not privatized, it remains municipal property.

Right of inheritance

As mentioned above, since a municipal apartment is the property of the state, after the death of its owner it automatically passes back to the municipality. The general right of inheritance here has no legal force, since only the personal property of citizens can be inherited by law.

A way out of this situation may be a will with an order for privatization. Relatives of the deceased have the right to file a claim in court to re-register the living space in their name through inheritance, with the subsequent right of privatization. In addition, you should not lose sight of the fact that only persons who are registered in this apartment can claim the right of inheritance.

Municipal apartment -

Housing owned by the municipality, allocated to citizens without property rights with the conclusion of a social rental agreement.
The advantages
of living space owned by the state.
Among the advantages, the following aspects can be highlighted: 1. Not taxed. 2. A citizen has the right to count on improved living conditions. 3. In the event of irreversible damage or destruction of the apartment, the tenant may apply for a new and equivalent dwelling. 4. By law, the tenant has the right to thoroughly repair individual areas or the entire premises. If the work was carried out by the tenant himself, or the alterations made by the management company turned out to be of poor quality, the citizen can seek reimbursement of expenses in court. 5. For elderly, lonely and disabled people, the big advantage is the minimal risk of deception from scammers. It is very difficult to privatize a municipal apartment without delay, and the tenant cannot manage the housing independently. Criminals will not be able to quickly and quietly take over their living space using deception or violence. It turns out that a municipal apartment is perfect for living by anyone who has no intention of exchanging or selling it. Disadvantages
of non-privatized housing: 1. It is not easy, and sometimes impossible, to rent out an apartment. To do this, responsible tenants need to complete a lot of approvals: . consent of all registered family members; . permission from neighbors; . confirmation that no one in the family suffers from serious illnesses; . permitting certificate from the management company 2. The biggest disadvantage of a municipal apartment is the danger of losing it due to complaints from neighbors about the defendant violating the rules of the generally accepted charter or by a decision of the authorities to use residential meters for other purposes. 3. Relatives of a family member who is not at the place of permanent registration have the right to ask the court to make a decision to evict him, since he has not fulfilled his obligations to pay and maintain order in his home for a long time. Due to the death of the tenant, also called the responsible tenant, everyone who lived in the apartment without registration is subject to eviction by court order. A long period of cohabitation with the deceased, testamentary notes and other arguments are not considered by the court. The municipal apartment will go to those relatives who were paying the rent at the time of the owner’s death and were registered at this address. If a person living in a non-privatized home plans to exchange, donate or sell it, resolving issues will become very problematic, and often insoluble, because the housing, which was actually leased from the state, does not belong to the citizen.

Legislative changes

According to previously existing standards, privatization processes should have been completed on 03/01/17. However, on the initiative of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin, the legislator extended it indefinitely.

There are many reasons for such a decision:

The reluctance of many citizens to register ownership of apartments is due to:

• unsatisfactory condition of buildings;
• reluctance to incur additional costs (tax);
• the presence of family problems and other factors;

the state is forced to invest in supporting a large housing stock, which is actually used by citizens.

When analyzing the results of the privatization of the housing stock, serious shortcomings of the previous mechanism were identified. They were the ones who slowed down the registration of apartments by residents. In particular, the emergency fund has not yet been completely resettled. People do not receive real estate that cannot be sold, exchanged, or used for their needs.

Attention: the authorities admit that registration of “free” privatization requires quite a lot of money to obtain documents. And this also slows down the process

What has changed for employers

The law of February 22, 2021, which lifted restrictions on privatization, allowed people to calmly decide on the exercise of their rights. More than one million employers have not yet taken advantage of it. And living in a state apartment imposes a number of restrictions on people that do not allow them to use modern financial instruments.

USEFUL INFORMATION: Is it possible to get married abroad: registering a marriage abroad

Not only can municipal property not be sold. A person cannot use housing as collateral to obtain a loan. Real estate cannot be gifted or left as an inheritance to grandchildren. By accepting the changes, the legislator counted on changes in public perception of the new reality. People are gradually learning to see their benefits from owning real estate.

The state will also receive a number of benefits from the new legislation:

1. Its main task is to fill the budget, which is also spent on social guarantees for the country’s citizens.
2. Real estate owned by people is a profitable budget item.
3. Therefore, the authorities extended the privatization right for an unlimited time. They need to rebuild the economic principles in the country.

To understand: the legislator expects that within a certain time real estate will become the property of people. That is, mistrust in the actions of the authorities will be overcome. Download for viewing and printing:

What to expect

Extending the process will allow people to deal with the accumulated problems without haste and make an informed decision. Among the main experts are the following:

1. Lack of money to complete the required documentation. Now employers don’t need to rush. You can save a certain amount and register the property.
2. Unresolved family issues. Indefinite privatization will allow you not to rush into deregistering relatives. You can find a consensus and divide the square meters.
3. Reluctance of people to engage in independent economic activity. The legislator admitted that society is inert. The new rules scare him. And the activities of “black realtors” did not contribute to the formation of trust in the authorities among the population. Now is the time to create a more favorable environment in society, helping to revive economic interaction.

For information: the problem of raising funds for major repairs of state property was also resolved by amending the paragraphs of the Housing Code. Now contributions are paid by all apartment owners and tenants.

Today, not everyone knows what a municipality is, since issues of territorial self-government are not often unnecessarily interested in, and the right is used quite rarely. Housing provided by the municipality is given to citizens for temporary use and belongs to the state. In other words, a municipal apartment is the property of the territorial government, so residents experience not only the advantages of such housing, but also the disadvantages of limited rights.
