Change the purpose of non-residential premises to residential

The intended purpose of the premises (building) provides for its use in the way that was clearly defined in the property documents. When it comes to housing stock, no difficulties arise here. But there are differences in the operation of premises belonging to the non-residential fund. It is possible to change the purpose of non-residential premises to residential in cases where the purpose is not defined in the documents certifying the ownership of the property (project documentation). If the intended purpose is documented, reconstruction or partial re-equipment can be carried out. The lawyers of our company “PRIKHODKO & PARTNERS” will help you change the purpose of the property.

Features of the legal change of the purpose of non-residential premises to residential

The question of transferring non-residential premises to residential premises arises mainly from the owners of commercial premises. In some cases, even at the construction stage, premises are sold as non-residential in order to reduce their cost or in order to save on compliance with relevant requirements and materials during the construction of the premises. Thus, the owner of the housing will directly deal with the change in the purpose of non-residential premises to residential premises with certain modifications.

Most often, apartments, studios, workshops, which are located in a residential building, can be transferred to the housing stock, but according to the documents, these premises are not suitable for habitation. To transfer non-residential premises to the housing stock, it is necessary to provide evidence – confirmation that this place is really suitable for human life. In particular, the property must have a number of mandatory communications, including: ventilation, plumbing, heating, sewerage. Only after the correct functioning of these nodes has been verified, you can apply to the Center for the provision of administrative services. You also need to prepare a package of documents. All documents must be notarized.

In most cases, the independent transfer of non-residential premises to residential is a rather problematic process. For example, difficulties may arise in situations where the object does not meet the current requirements for residential premises. The expert commission may insist on reconstruction. If the situation is like this, you will need to:

1. Obtain permission to carry out reconstruction.
2. Issue a new registration certificate.
3. Obtain new documents confirming ownership.

Thus, the correct execution of all the necessary documents to change the purpose of non-residential premises to residential requires some effort. If you do not have free time for all this bureaucratic red tape, it is better to entrust it to professionals.
