How to buy an apartment

To protect personal interests and protect yourself from scammers when making an apartment purchase and sale agreement, several stages must be consistently. Consider a step-by-step algorithm for the purchase of cherished square meters.

Carefully examine the history of the transaction object. Checking the owners of the apartment should include:

study of the mental and physical health of the seller;
analysis of the legality of obtaining rights to the apartment under the contract of donation, inheritance or court decision;
familiarization with information about the history of the shift of the owners and the real number of legal owners of real estate;
appeal to guardianship and guardianship authorities with a request for the availability of rights to sell an apartment, the owners of which are minor children;
search for information on the established relations of residential property owners with law enforcement agencies.

Next, you should familiarize yourself with the existing information about the subject of the contract of sale. This will allow:

have a clear idea of \u200b\u200bthe past major repairs, reconstructions, redevelopment, state of sanitary equipment and other communications;
make sure the authenticity of all the guidelines and the absence of debts on utilities;
check the apartment for its possible stay in pledge.

We advise the day before the conclusion of the transaction to go with a statement to the USRP on the provision of extracts for purchased residential property. The official document with the owner and information about its rights at housing is allowed to issue property to the buyer without the knowledge of the owner.

If the test results are satisfied, then proceed to the next stage of acquiring residential real estate - prepare a package of documents. The purchase agreement must include information on the location of the object of the transaction, its actual area, appointment and value. For his detailed study, attract an experienced lawyer.

The following documents are attached to the contract:

passport or document replacing it;
certificate of marriage (when acquiring real estate in collaborative ownership with her husband / wife);
notarized consent of one of the spouses for the acquisition of real estate in sole ownership;
a loan agreement (if the acquisition of residential real estate is carried out on credit funds);
certificates from narcological and psycho-neurological dispensaries on the legal capacity of the seller;
resolution of guardianship bodies;
extract from the cadastral plan;
certificates of the birth of children;
technical passport of the apartment;
extract from a single state registry;
information certificate "On registration" (form 9) with a list of owners and prescribed persons;
certified by the notary obligations of prescribed citizens about discharge from the sold apartment;
archival form 9 about previously prescribed, time, addresses and causes of extracting previous tenants.

In the presence of a notary, enter into an agreement.

On the day of the conclusion of the transaction, all legal paper should be provided to Rosreestr. In the presence of a federal service employee, you will sign an application for registering a signed agreement and give a receipt of all the necessary documents. After 7-30 days, you will be returned to you and will be awarded the certificate of ownership of the purchased apartment.

When transferring cash to the apartment, you demand from the seller to write a receipt of money. Remember that payment must precede the conclusion and registration of the transaction.
