Commissioning of autonomous construction

According to the current Ukrainian legislation, putting the real estate object into operation is a mandatory procedure. However, not always the owners of a house, apartment or other real estate object pay due attention to this procedure. That is why the existence of self-builds remains an acute issue in Ukraine. Commissioning of independent construction is one of the services provided by the specialists of our law firm Prykhodko and Partners. In this article, we will consider the specifics of this procedure in detail.

What real estate objects belong to self-construction?

The self-construction category includes various types of real estate. These can be houses (cottage, residential), structures, buildings, the construction of which was not accompanied by the issuance of the relevant permit documentation.

Also among such objects of the building that were erected:

1. In the event of incorrect registration/absence of the construction project.
2. In the case of non-compliance of the house or building with the purpose of the land plot.
3. When carrying out work with significant violations of current building rules and regulations.
4. In the absence of necessary permits for construction work.

Commissioning of independent construction in accordance with current legislation

Legalization of independent construction is a legal process related to state registration of ownership. If this procedure is ignored, the responsibility defined by the current legislation follows, namely:

• Warning.

We are talking about the prescription of DIAM (State Inspection of Architecture and Urban Planning).

• Fines.
• Forced demolition of the real estate object.

In addition, without acceptance into operation, the owner of the real estate cannot become its full manager, namely: he will not have the right to sell, exchange, lease, etc. Also, the real estate object cannot be legally connected to such engineering networks as gas, water, heat, electricity. The supply of energy carriers is possible only in the presence of relevant contracts.

Documents on the registration of ownership of the real estate object are considered within 5 working days. As a result, the real estate owner receives an extract from the state register of property rights to real estate.

An important issue also concerns the construction amnesty. In 2018, a construction amnesty was introduced for houses built between 1992 and 2015. That is, it is still possible to register these houses according to the appropriate procedure.

Stages of self-construction commissioning

Current Ukrainian legislation regulates the implementation of all construction processes only with the accompaniment of a large package of documents. Carrying out work on various real estate objects is prohibited from legal registration.

To put self-build into operation, you need to take just a few steps:

1. Passing technical inventory.
2. Registration of the Declaration on putting the object into operation in the State Agency for Economic and Social Affairs.

Thus, the procedure for putting self-built construction into operation is a rather long and complex process. Its completion requires considerable perseverance and specialized knowledge. It is better to entrust this matter to professionals in their field - Prykhodko and Partners lawyers.

As for the cost of legalization of independent construction, everything depends on the following factors:

• Area of the house.
• Availability of permission documents for the land.
• Year of construction of the real estate object.
• Purpose of the plot of land.
• Conformity of the real estate object to the rules and norms of the current construction legislation.
