When purchasing a suburban (garden) plot, you should be careful and circumspect. It happens that you can’t build anything on it, and a vegetable garden is the only thing it is suitable for. Let’s study the main nuances associated with the purchase of suburban land.
We study the documents
According to the current legislation, all land resources are divided into several types according to their intended purpose. Which of them the plot belongs to is indicated in two documents: the certificate of state registration of ownership and the cadastral passport.
In particular, the following formulations can be found.
- A garden plot. It is intended exclusively for agricultural work, it is forbidden to erect capital residential buildings on such land. The maximum that can be built is a small house for inventory.
- Garden plot. Designed for growing fruit and berry crops. You can build a small apartment building.
- Suburban area. It is used for growing vegetables and fruits. You can build housing.
- Personal subsidiary farm. It is intended for the cultivation of agricultural crops. It is not forbidden to build housing.
- A plot for individual housing construction. Designed specifically for the construction of a residential building. Moreover, in case of idle land, they may even impose a fine for misuse.
Where to buy?
Now that some legal details are known, you can proceed with the choice. In the vicinity of settlements, all plots belong to the category “for settlements”. In turn, they are also divided into separate zones — agricultural, industrial, etc. It depends on the category and territorial zone how to properly register the right of ownership.
For capital housing construction, you should choose a plot in the category of “settlement lands”. For the construction of a country house — “agricultural land” (just make sure that a permit for suburban construction is registered).
We check the plot
So, we have decided on the view. It’s time to come to the place and look around. First of all, it is necessary to make sure of the convenience and safety of the area in which the land plot of interest is located. Few people will like it if it is located near a busy highway, not far from a metallurgical plant, cemetery or landfill.
If you purchase a plot with an existing residential building, you will have to make inquiries about the house. It is necessary to find out from what materials and how long ago it was built.
The presence or absence of connected communications and engineering networks is an important aspect on which the possibility of construction depends. The seller must be required to provide information about the soil and groundwater. Ideally, these should be the results of geodetic surveys. Also, do not forget to learn about the method of removing sewage.
Measure the distances between all the buildings, and check the data specified in the documents with the actual ones. In addition, make sure that there are no unregistered buildings on the ground, as well as there are no discrepancies between their documentary and actual purpose.
In no case do not take a plot with a house where there are not legalized extensions. Do not be lazy to measure the territory and calculate its area by checking the value obtained with the one specified in the contract. Contact the technical inventory bureau to clarify whether the owner has any problems with this organization.
Deal
To make a transaction for the purchase and sale of a plot, the following set of documents is required:
- cadastral passport of the plot;
- a document establishing the right to property;
- certificate of absence of arrest imposed on the land or on the real estate located on it;
- certificate of ownership of the land plot;
- extract from the Unified State Register of Rights to Immovable Property and Transactions with it;
- certificate of standard cost;
- a document confirming the consent of the spouse of the owner of the plot for the sale of the plot.
On the basis of all these papers, the execution of the contract of sale is carried out, to which the act of acceptance and transfer is attached. The obligation to draw up the contract lies with the seller.
At the same time, be sure to check the passport data specified in the document with the actual ones. It is necessary to sign papers on the readiness of the parties to make a transaction in a notary office in the presence of a notary.
The transfer of money must take place in the presence of the registrar. At the same time, an option is possible in which half of the amount is transferred to the seller even before registration. If the cost of the plot is underestimated in the documents, be sure to take a receipt for the remaining funds.
After signing, it is necessary to pay the state fee for registration of ownership rights, and transfer the documents to the registrar.
