Privatization of the land under the house
According to the current Land Code of Ukraine, the procedure for privatizing a plot of land on which a residential building is located is significantly simplified. At the legislative level, the need to obtain permits for the development of relevant projects has been abolished. However, it is worth remembering that living in a private house does not mean that you are the owner of the real estate object and the plot of land at the same time. In this article, we will consider in detail how the land under the house is privatized.
Peculiarities of the privatization procedure
Once again, we draw your attention to the fact that ownership of a house is not a guarantee that you also own the plot of land under it. You can have completed documents for the real estate object, while the plot of land can be for your use only. In order to fully own a plot of land, it is necessary to go through the privatization procedure.
Current Ukrainian legislation regulates this issue as follows: every citizen of Ukraine has the right to free land privatization. That is, we are talking about the transfer of ownership from the state to a private person.
Of course, the process of privatizing a plot of land is significantly simplified if it has been in use and a residential building has been built on it. It should be remembered that each case is individual and depends on various factors. That is why it is worth enlisting the professional support of real estate lawyers. Specialists of our Prykhodko and Partners law office provide the full range of services related to the privatization of a plot of land.
According to the Law, privatization of communal or state lands can be carried out for:
- Personal or farm management, horticulture.
- Construction and maintenance of a country house or individual house.
- Construction of a garage, etc.
The following documents will be required to carry out the procedure of land plot privatization:
- Documents that will serve as confirmation of ownership of the real estate object (if available).
If for some reason you have not had time to register the ownership of the house, we recommend that you do it first. Our real estate specialists will advise you on the possibility of carrying out the procedure for registering ownership of a house. In addition, we will help in the preparation of all necessary documents.
- Technical passport for a residential building.
- The decision to provide a plot of land for use/ownership.
Advantages of legal support for land privatization
The algorithm for privatizing the land under the house is as follows:
- Development of the necessary documentation.
We are talking about land management documentation, surveying the territory of the land plot. On the basis of the received data, electronic documents for privatization are formed.
- Verification of documents by the cadastral registrar.
All documents must comply with current Ukrainian legislation.
- Assignment of cadastral number. Registration.
The plot of land is registered in the Land Cadastre. The result is the receipt of the DZK extract.
- Documentation is considered at a session of the local council. The goal is to approve and transfer the plot of land into private ownership.
- Completion of ownership registration.
The relevant information is recorded in the State Register of Property Rights to real estate objects.
Important: if you do not privatize a plot of land in a timely manner, you will not be able to freely dispose of it. In addition, it will lead to a decrease in the total cost of land ownership. You will lose the opportunity to protect the territory of the plot of land from the encroachment of third parties. It will also be impossible to obtain permits for the construction of new real estate objects.

- Formation of land management documentation for a plot of land in accordance with the requirements of current legislation.
- Land plot registration in the State Land Cadastre.
