How to put a house into operation – the cost of putting a private house into operation in 2024

According to current Ukrainian legislation, the commissioning of any real estate, in particular, a private house, is the final stage of construction. It is after this procedure that you will be able to use the building for its immediate purpose. In this article, we will consider how to put a house into operation, as well as the cost of legalizing a private house in 2024. If you do not have any experience in this matter, it is better to entrust this matter to professionals - specialists of our law office Prykhodko and Partners.

Requirements for legalization of a private house

Currently, there is no law or document in Ukraine that fully describes the process of commissioning an already built private house. Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 461 characterizes only the procedure for submitting documents. However, at the same time, many nuances are not taken into account.

Among the requirements that should be considered in the process of legalization of a private house:

1. Completion of necessary stages of technical inventory.
2. Availability of a package of documents.
3. Compliance of existing documents with existing building rules and regulations.

Now we will consider in detail the stages of putting a private house into operation. Everything will depend on what type of house is legalized:

• Houses with an area of up to 500 m2.

For houses of this area, the general procedure for putting the house into operation applies. At the same time, it does not matter whether the self-build was erected before April 2015 or you are just planning to start construction.

• Houses with an area of more than 300 m2.

For such houses, the "general" procedure for putting the house into operation also applies. Other commissioning rules apply to non-residential buildings and industrial facilities.

Among the documents that need to be prepared for the legalization of a private house:

1. Personal documents of the owner (passport, TIN).
2. Statement.
3. Technical passport (if available).
4. Documents confirming land ownership.
5. Notice regarding the start of construction works.

Why is it necessary to put the house into operation?

Ignoring the procedure for putting a private house into operation creates a sufficiently large number of significant legal risks and consequences. In particular, it is impossible to donate it, sell the house, connect it to communications, etc. In addition, serious problems may arise in the process of changing master plans. In some cases, the lack of documents confirming the commissioning of the house can lead to the demolition of the building.

What does the cost of putting the house into operation in 2024 depend on?

The cost of the procedure for putting the building into operation in 2024 depends on the following factors:

1. The area of a private house.
2. The location of the house.
3. Year of construction.
4. Availability of documentation (notification of the start of construction work, technical documentation, etc.).
