Registration of ownership of an apartment in the MFC, documents, deadlines and state fees

What is MFC?

The MFC or state multifunctional center was created specifically to provide services to the population in various areas. Here the documents are accepted and subsequently transferred for registration and registration of rights. There is a branch in every city, which makes the process easier.

In addition, the center’s specialists will help in preparing a package of documents for registration of housing, and everything will be done within the legal framework. Each center has the opportunity to make an appointment online. You can also make an appointment by phone for a specific date and time.

Important! If, when transferring the package for registration of property, not the entire set was collected, the missing papers can be delivered, but it is still better to collect the entire package - this will definitely exclude the suspension of ownership rights.

User instructions

The property registration procedure has its own nuances. The citizen must complete the following actions:

Make an appointment with a multifunctional center employee. This can be done by phone or on the official website of the organization. Another option is to visit the MFC in person.
Prepare the necessary documents.
At the appointed time, go to the MFC registrar and, with his help, fill out an application for registering the apartment with the cadastral register.
Pay the state fee at the nearest terminal.
Receive a receipt for documents acceptance. You can use its number to check whether the certificate is ready.

It is worth mentioning separately some of the nuances of the multifunctional center. The state fee can be paid directly at the MFC office. In addition, if necessary, employees can additionally advise the client on issues of interest.

Multifunctional center employees do not provide receipt forms for receipt of funds by the seller. The user can visit the official website of the organization. Also, the MFC does not provide contract drafting services. If there is no need for its mandatory written confirmation, it comes into force after both parties have signed the transaction and agreed to its terms.

Decorating an apartment received as a gift

As a rule, apartments are given to close relatives. It is extremely rare for a complete stranger to become a participant in such a transaction. The transfer of rights occurs on the basis of an agreement. Its legislation allows you to draw it up yourself, or with the assistance of a notary. In the latter case, you will have to pay for the service, but you will be sure that:

the document is completed correctly;
If lost, it can be easily restored.

Among other things, the notary’s signature indicates that all participants are legally capable. What is important is if someone tries to terminate the deal through the court.

The deed of gift is not in itself a document confirming the alienation of real estate. It becomes such only after issuing a certificate of registration of property. In this case, you must contact Rosreestr within a year. After this period, the gift agreement becomes invalid.

In this case, the following documents should be submitted to the multifunctional center:

a certificate confirming the donor’s right to the apartment;
registration certificate;
passports of all participants;
the original of the gratuitous transfer agreement;
a certificate from the building management containing a list of people living in the apartment.

If necessary, you also need to bring to the multifunctional center:

consent of the remaining co-owners of the apartment certified by a notary;
permission issued by the guardianship authorities (if one of the parties to the transaction has not reached the age of majority or is declared incompetent).

Registration procedure

Separately, it is worth mentioning how the registration of ownership of a house takes place at the MFC after submitting the necessary documentation. If the employee has no doubt about the authenticity of the submitted documents, he will take them for registration, and the applicant will receive a receipt.

In the multifunctional center itself, ownership rights are not formalized. The received documentation is submitted for examination to Rosreestr.

If the specialists consider the list of submitted documents to be incomplete, they will suspend the transaction and ask the client to bring the missing papers. In addition, Rosreestr employees identified the following reasons for rejecting the transaction:

Types of prohibitions on housing established by law (for example, arrest).
Unreliability or falsification of the information provided (for example, an apartment of a deceased person can be registered only if an inheritance has been opened).
Inaccuracies in documentation.
Illegality of the transaction.

When an expert from Rosreestr makes a positive decision, information is entered into the Unified State Register of Real Estate that the deal has been concluded. Then the documentation provided by the client is transferred to the MFC, and registration is considered completed.

Registration of an apartment transferred into ownership by inheritance

Transfer of real estate from a deceased occurs in two cases:

by will;
in law.

In both cases, you will need to notarize the right to acquire property. In this case, you need to bring to the multifunctional center:

certificate confirming the right to inheritance (original and copy for the registration authority);
registration certificate for real estate;
Russian passport;
receipt for transfer of state duty.

It should be noted that a technical passport is required only in a situation where registration occurs as a primary matter.

Other situations

In addition, you have to contact the MFC to register if:

construction of the house has been completed;
changes are made to previously made entries after redevelopment of the apartment;
property passes into other hands by court decision, etc.

In general, in all cases, including in relation to apartments purchased with a mortgage, the list of required documents is the same, only the legal grounds differ. These are considered contracts for:

apartment exchange;
privatization;
participation in shared construction if housing is registered in a new building.
