Breaking the deadlock: is it possible to get the apartment purchased not from developer

The failed developer paid to its counterparties in square meters in the multi-storied building to be constructed in the future, and one of the counterparties sold them to individuals, even without receiving the housing under a transfer and acceptance certificate. One of the buyers has not got her apartment and decided to be included on the register of claims for the transfer of apartments. The court of appeal and the court of cassation have dismissed her claims since the scheme was illegal. The Chamber for Commercial Disputes has explained why they were wrong and provided a legal assessment of disputable transactions.

Lawyers consider a general property owners’ meeting the preferred form to show a declaration of intent

Lawyers recommend that housing residents hold general property owners’ meetings, regardless of whether their home is currently on the list of any renovation program or there is only the possibility of it being included in one. In addition, it is advisable that property owners check whether their cadastral documentation has been issued for the plot of land under the building that is a common shared property; if not, it should be registered as soon as possible.

Investors will be attracted by land areas

The draft law providing for favorable conditions of land lease for investors that are ready to fulfil obligations for “long-delayed construction projects” is being considered in the Krasnodar Region. The Administration ensures that the value of compensatory land plots will cover at least half of costs for commissioning the troubled buildings. The market participants treat the taken actions as urgent but lawyers see in the draft law a number of provisions that contradict the provisions of federal legislation.

"Serdyukov’s dacha" is still in civilian life

Arbitration Court will consider an appeal of the Military Prosecutor’s Office in relation to a dispute over the legality of privatization of the land plot located outside Anapa, on which the so-called "Serdyukov’s dacha" is situated. The decision to return the land plot to the state, which was rendered earlier, has been overridden by the Supreme Court; at the new hearings, the court took the side of the land plot buyer, i.e. CityEngineering LLC. The territory in dispute was transferred to the military department in 2010 at the request of Anatoly Serdyukov, Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation; afterwards, the plot was sold as a non-core asset for 110 million roubles. According to lawyers, the state has legal opportunities to settle the dispute in its favor.

Fundamental problems

Real estate developers believe that certain prerequisites have been created for the housing market to recover as soon as 2017. The forecast by the Ministry of Construction is full of optimism - it expects that, over the medium term, construction output for residential real estate will grow by 5-8% per year. Independent experts are more restrained in their estimates. They remind us that the market is encumbered with a multitude of problems that require immediate solutions.

Question of hubs

City Hall has been looking for ways to eliminate the famous Moscow traffic jams on the city’s roads. One possible solution was announced back in 2011, a plan to build transport interchange hubs (TIH) in the capital city. However, its implementation would require huge investments, which the city government simply does not have, and which private investors will not touch, seeing great risks, according to some players, in these poorly designed projects. Even the prospects of building huge amounts of new real estate within such TIH are not able to attract major developers.
