Order the legalization of unauthorized redevelopment of an apartment in Moscow, prices, cost.

How serious are the consequences of re-equipping your own apartment without coordinating such work with the authorized authorities? There is an opinion that there is nothing wrong here - if you need to sell real estate, you can always turn yourself in to the Moscow Housing Inspectorate and agree on everything retroactively.

Let's see how fair this is.

Amnesty is not for everyone

Indeed, in 2011, the Moscow authorities adopted a decree, according to which, in fact, the legalization of unauthorized redevelopment in Moscow takes place (for more details, see the link). However, this solution contains a number of limitations.

Firstly, the amnesty applies only to those apartment owners who themselves declare to the Moscow Housing Inspection about the fact of the reconstruction.

Secondly, it will be possible to agree after the fact only those works that do not violate existing SNIPs, do not threaten the life and health of other people, and do not change the architectural appearance of the house.

For example, legalization is not subject to:

• Installation of central heating radiators on the balcony
• The device of the "warm floor" system connected to the general house water supply
• Dismantling of load-bearing structures without calculations
• Attic conversion

Such violations will clearly be recognized as illegal. The owner of the apartment will have to restore it to its original state and pay a fine. You can try to keep the repair done by going to court. But the chances of a decision in favor of the plaintiff are slim. That is why it is better to coordinate redevelopment in advance.

If repairs have already been made

But what if you arranged changes in your apartment? It will be necessary, having learned the prices, to legalize unauthorized redevelopment in Moscow.

The procedure here is as follows. You will need to apply with an appropriate application to the Moscow Housing Inspection (for residents of other cities - to the local administration), attaching the necessary documents to it. The list of documents is the same as if you were just going to carry out repairs:

• The right establishing documents for an apartment
• Technical certificate
• Conclusion on the state of load-bearing structures
• Project

As for the last document, you have the right to choose one of the standard projects if it is suitable for your apartment. After that, it will be necessary to obtain permission, then receive an acceptance certificate, make changes to the documents at the BTI. The turnaround time for all instances can drag on for months.
