Russia - What happens if you register a tenant in the capital

Russia (bbabo.net), - Only seven percent of Moscow homeowners agree to provide their tenants with temporary registration. Oksana Polyakova, deputy director of the apartment rental department at INCOM-Nedvizhimost, told about this. Most homeowners see certain risks in this: you never know if the tenant suddenly moves out ahead of time or the relationship with him does not work out. And then they will stop paying, and they will apply for accommodation. Or even fraudulently proves his rights to housing - such cases have also happened.

So is it possible in Moscow to do everything according to the law: to register tenants and receive rent? The interviewed lawyers and realtors are sure that there should not be any serious risks for the owners in any case. There are simply moments that you should definitely pay attention to when drawing up a contract and getting to know your tenants. Temporary registration from the point of view of the law is a mark at the place of residence, that is, where a person actually lives at the current moment. It does not cancel permanent registration and is mandatory for those who live outside the place of registration for more than 90 days.

Registration in a Moscow apartment worries mainly families with children. After all, a paper confirming a temporary stay gives grounds to register a child in a kindergarten and school. The Internet is still full of offers to deliver the treasured piece of paper even in a day. However, in most cases, as comments on social networks show, you will either be brought a frank "fake" or registered in a "rubber apartment". Their addresses are well known to various regional services.

“Apartment owners are more willing to agree to issue temporary registration if the tenant is a legal entity,” continues Oksana Polyakova. “For example, if an organization rents housing for its employees for a long time. There is more confidence in such tenants.” However, individualso get lucky. True, as a rule, the owners nevertheless first try to get to know their tenants better, and only then solve the issue of registration.

“The very possibility of temporary registration does not affect the rent,” comments Oksana Polyakova. “But when registering a new tenant, utility bills increase - this issue should be immediately discussed with the tenant and, accordingly, taken into account in the rental rate.”

As practice shows, most homeowners do not want to register tenants, not out of harm and laziness to go to the MFC, but out of considerations "no matter what happens." “There are indeed risks, even if you don’t register tenants,” lawyer Mikhail Gergolenko said. “For example, if the police find out that you let people in for more than 90 days and didn’t register them, you could be fined 7,000 rubles.”

Doubts of the capital's rentiers are not without reason, emphasizes Vladimir Kuznetsov, vice-president of the Association of Lawyers for Registration, Liquidation, Bankruptcy and Legal Representation, member of the General Council of Business Russia. After all, families with a child most often request registration. Even if only an adult tenant is registered, then he can then register a child with his own hand and without the consent of the owner at the same address. And that's when problems can arise. After all, when the tenant violates the terms of the contract, his registration canceled quite calmly.

But if a minor is registered in the apartment, it will not be so easy to get rid of the tenants without their consent. Registration can only be terminated by a court order. Therefore, many, having weighed the possible risks, decide to remain as a last resort without 7 thousand rubles than with a million potential problems.

Specifically

Conditions for terminating temporary registration

- the desire of the tenants themselves;

- damage to the property of the owner of the apartment;

- violation of the terms of the lease agreement;

- submission of forged documents;

- deprivation of liberty by a court decision;

- call to the army.

However, it will be more difficult to de-register citizens of certain categories. These include children, the military, the disabled and other privileged persons.

By the way

Personal experience

The correspondent had to go through several options for rental apartments before he managed to find owners who were ready to register a tenant. Registration was extremely necessary, since it was time to send the child to kindergarten. Actually, the registration process itself took only 15 minutes. We just came in advance with passports and a birth certificate. There was practically no queue at the MFC of the Otradnoye district. The owner and we, the tenants, simply made statements and handed them over to the center employee. Then we were given a receipt and a few days later they invited us to pick up the documents on temporary registration.
