Legalization (legalization) of the extension

Legalizing an extension is a necessary step to ensure the legality and safety of your home. This process requires proper documentation and compliance with construction legislation. Contact the company “Prykhodko and partners”: we are ready to help you in the legalization of the extension, providing you with peace of mind and confidence in the legal status of your home.

Why do you need to legalize the extension?

Legalizing an extension is a necessary step to ensure the legality and safety of your home. The first thing to consider is that a building that has not passed legalization can be recognized as illegal. This means that at any moment of time it can be subject to dismantling or other legal measures.

Legalization also avoids potential legal problems in the future. Illegal additions can result in fines, lawsuits, or even loss of title to your property.

In addition, the legalization of an extension can improve the value of your property. If the building is officially registered and meets all legal requirements, this can be an additional plus when selling or evaluating your property.

Therefore, the legalization of the extension is not only about ensuring legality and security, but also about protecting your property and future investments.

How to legalize an extension to the house?

The algorithm for the legalization of an extension to the house may include the following steps, in which our experts will provide maximum support:

1. Obtaining consent of co-owners. If the real estate has several owners, it is necessary to obtain the notarial consent of all co-owners for the extension.
2. Obtaining a construction passport or MBUO. If the area of the object does not exceed 500 m² and the number of floors does not exceed 2 floors, you will need to obtain a construction passport. In the case of larger areas and floors, it is necessary to obtain MBOO (Local building conditions and restrictions).
3. Development of project documentation. Depending on the need, develop project documentation, which includes a construction project, plans and calculations.
4. Submission of notification to the State Inspection of Architecture and Urban Planning (DIAM). Submit the necessary notification of the start of construction work.
5. Obtaining a technical passport at BTI (Technical Inventory Bureau). After the construction is completed, get a technical passport for your extension.
6. Commissioning of the facility. After receiving all the necessary permits and documents, put the extension into operation.
7. Obtaining a mailing address (if necessary). If required, obtain an official mailing address for your extension.
8. Register ownership. After completing all procedures for the legalization of the extension, register your ownership of the object.

This algorithm will allow you to consistently perform all the necessary actions for the successful legalization of an extension to the house. It is recommended to consult with a specialist of the company “Prykhodko and Partners” for additional information and specific requirements for your region.

What is needed to legalize an extension to an apartment?

In order to legalize an extension to an apartment, in addition to the steps mentioned above, additional requirements must also be taken into account:

1. When building an extension to the apartment, it is necessary to take into account the need to maintain the possibility of passing cars through the yard. Any structure or equipment that obstructs passage may become an obstacle to obtaining a legalization permit.
2. An extension to an apartment should not block the view from the windows of other apartments in this building. This is important from the point of view of safety and ensuring the comfort of the residents of the house.
3. When building an extension to the apartment, it is necessary to take into account that the construction work does not reduce the load-bearing capacity of the building’s structures. Any changes or additional loads must be carefully calculated to avoid the risk of damage to the house or its elements.

Compliance with these additional requirements is important for the successful legalization of the extension to the apartment and ensuring the safety and comfort of all residents of the building.
