All the details about what happened to paper certificates for an apartment (and other real estate) and how to now confirm that I am the owner.
In the midst of July, when half of the population of our Motherland is quietly engaged in beds and preparations for the winter, great changes are taking place in the legal life of the country. But it's one thing when new rules for fishing water resources come into force, and quite another when it comes to real estate, which almost everyone has one way or another.
The essence of the changes: from 15.07.2016 paper certificates of state registration ownership of real estate will no longer be issued. The procedure for state registration of the emergence and transfer of rights to real estate is preserved.
This news about the abolition of the certificate of ownership for all non-lawyers in the country seemed revolutionary. Habitual certificates for an apartment or house in folk wisdom were considered the only and most durable confirmation of ownership. And then once - and the news: the certificate for the apartment was canceled and will not be issued again. How can you not worry? But really, there is nothing to be afraid of.
How can I verify that I am the owner?
From July 15, 2016, an extract from the Unified State Register of Rights to Real Estate and Transactions with it becomes a document that confirms the registration of ownership of real estate - extract from USRR. You can get this extract from paper form, as well as in in electronic format.
The USRR registry has been maintained for a long time, and extracts have existed for a long time. From the USRR statement, it has long been possible to see who the owner is, whether there are restrictions (encumbrances) on real estate - for example, whether the apartment is pledged to the bank (mortgage) or under arrest. In addition, long before July 15, the owner could already choose how to certify his fact of registration of the right - with a paper certificate or an extract from the USRR. But the majority, of course, chose the usual evidence. An extract from the USRR was more often ordered, for example, when concluding a contract for the sale of an apartment, in order to look at the entire history of the object and make sure that the transaction was clean. And now this extract will need to be ordered more often - for example, also when renting an apartment.
In fact, a certificate of registration of ownership of real estate has long been no guarantor. The old certificate could easily remain with the previous owner of the apartment in his last name and open up scope for fraud. Or another illegal space - forgery of forms.
The certificate itself, in essence, did not confirm the right of ownership forever, but only for a certain date - the date of its issue. With an extract from the USRR, everything is the same - and it confirms all the information only on the date of issue, and the very next day - there may be a completely different entry in the USRR. And you need a fresh release. The main difference is that the certificate was issued once and for all, and the extract will need to be ordered as much as there will be different real estate transactions - buy / sell / rent, etc.
Important!
Both the certificate earlier and the extract from the USRR today confirm only the fact of state registration of the right. In this case, the main documents have always been and remain title documents - a contract of sale, a donation contract, a certificate of the right to inheritance, etc.
Do I need to change the certificate for an extract from the USRR?
No no need. Paper title deeds issued prior to July 15, 2016 are still valid. Any structures, in order to confirm the ownership of real estate, are required to accept certificates of ownership in the same way as an extract from the USRR.
How to get an extract from the USRR?
You can order and receive an extract from the USRR both for your own and for any other apartment in order to find out who the owner is, whether there are any litigations for the apartment, whether there are any arrests or bails.

A huge role for homeowners is played by documents confirming the right of ownership. Whether it's an apartment or a house, it doesn't matter. The main thing is that we are talking about certificates indicating that a person has ownership rights to property. What is it about? Where and how to get the relevant certificate? How can you get ownership of a home?
It is not so difficult to understand the above questions. In particular, thanks to latest changes Russian legislation.
Documents confirming the ownership of an apartment play an important role in a person's life. They indicate the legality of property ownership and allow real estate transactions.
The certificate of ownership of the apartment appeared in Russia in 1998. Since then, it has been used in all real estate transactions. For example, when registering the purchase and sale of property.
What documents are there in the Russian Federation confirming the ownership of an apartment? Among them, as we have already found out, there is evidence of the established sample. It contains certain information.
Which? Today in the certificate of ownership of the apartment allocate:
As a rule, there is no more information in the mentioned paper. Nothing extra!
Many are interested in how to get ownership of an apartment. But more on that later. First, it is worth understanding which authorities will issue the relevant certificates.
Today in the territory of the Russian Federation, you can apply for a certificate of the established form to the following organizations:
It is also allowed to register property rights with the issuance of a certificate through the State Services and the Rosreestr website. But these are not the most popular services. Therefore, they will not be considered.
Documents confirming the ownership of the apartment are different. There are several types of these papers. The first category of documents indicates the presence of certain grounds for the emergence of property rights. The second - to the immediate rights to own, use and dispose of property.
In the second case, only the following papers can serve as confirmation:
For some time now, Russia has stopped issuing certificates of ownership. Instead of them, extracts from the USRR are now fully used. These are interchangeable documents.
Does the citizen have a certificate of ownership of the apartment? Then there is no need to obtain an extract. Previously issued property documents are recognized as valid.
The following documents may help with privatization:
To start the privatization procedure, you will have to present an agreement on social recruitment real estate and a certificate with a residence permit of a citizen. After registration of housing in private ownership, the owners will be issued either a certificate of ownership or an extract from the USRR.
But that is not all! When thinking about which document confirms the ownership of an apartment, it is necessary to understand that there may be several such papers. This is normal.
In the case of confirmation of ownership rights when selling, buying, donating and exchanging housing, you can do:
The list of documents confirming the ownership of the apartment does not end there. After all, the listed cases do not cover all life situations in which citizens become homeowners.
Sometimes people get houses and dachas by inheritance. In this case, the documents confirming the ownership of an apartment or other real estate will differ significantly from the previously listed papers.
So, for example, the basis for the appearance of a new owner at the apartment can be:
Also, at the time of confirmation of your rights, you will have to bring:
Usually, on the basis of these papers, there is a confirmation of kinship with the testator and an indication of the right to inherit. After registration of property rights, an appropriate certificate is issued with an extract from the USRR.
If citizens have purchased an apartment in a housing cooperative and paid a share for it, then they will be able to indicate their rights with the help of a certificate of the established form. It is issued by the housing cooperative and registered without fail.
As a rule, in exchange for such a certificate, you can get an extract from the USRR. But this is not the end of title documents for real estate.
What other scenarios are there? Russia is full of various documentation. And some papers indicate ownership of the property.
Other evidence often includes:
In fact, there are a lot of documents confirming the ownership of the apartment. But it is worth noting that the main evidence in real life is still extracts from the USRR. They must be ordered immediately before the implementation of a particular operation.
What conclusions can be drawn from the above? There are a lot of papers that can prove ownership of property. Only among them are almost always found evidence of the established form and extracts from the unified state register of real estate.
How can property rights be acquired? Most often, the following reasons are distinguished:
Each procedure has a number of its own characteristics. For example, the rights to an apartment under a donation agreement usually pass during the life of the donor, and in the case of receiving an inheritance, you will have to wait for the death of the testator without fail.
And what exactly needs to be done so that a citizen can order a certificate from the USRR or a certificate of ownership? As a rule, it is required to follow a certain algorithm of actions.
Namely:
Usually, such an alignment helps to obtain both a certificate of ownership of real estate and an extract from the state register.
How much does this operation cost? For some title documents there is a place National tax. But it is not always present.
For example, you do not need to pay for the issuance of a certificate of ownership. This service is usually provided free of charge. For the preparation of an extract from the USRR, it is required to pay about 350 rubles to individuals and about 600 rubles to organizations.
When registering property rights under a donation, donation or exchange agreement, you need to pay different fees. Additionally, if necessary, notary services are paid. But as a rule, all of these operations do not require special costs from a person.
How quickly does Rosreestr cope with the issuance of these certificates? Ownership of an apartment is registered very quickly. According to the law, 15 days are allotted for this operation.
If a citizen makes changes to existing documents, then new legal documents are issued in 5-10 days. The exact period depends on the reason for applying to the registration authority.
Below is a sample extract from the USRR. Now we understand that this paper has recently been the main proof of the rights to real estate. You shouldn't fake it. After all, the validity of the document is easy to check on the basis of Rosreestr. If it turns out that the certificate is not genuine, then the property transaction will be canceled and invalidated.
From now on, it is clear what are the documents confirming the ownership of an apartment, house, cottage or other property. Getting them in Russia with legal grounds is much easier than it seems.
If the current certificate of the established form is lost, it is enough to contact Rosreestr with an identity card and an application for issuing a duplicate certificate. Employees will issue it on the basis of information stored in the database of the cadastral chamber. What document confirms the ownership of the apartment? Extract from the EGRP!
As you know, until July 15, 2016, a separate document was issued in Russia confirming the right of ownership, which was referred to as a certificate of state registration. Starting from 2017, extract from the USRN instead of a certificate of ownership became a mandatory process for registering property rights. Besides, new law FZ-218 abolished such concepts as cadastral passport, extract from USRR. Now, only an extract from the USRN is official document, which confirms your legal actions. Let's try to figure out what it is connected with.
