Overhaul of apartment buildings: to pay or not - that is the question. Federal and regional law

In 2015, a bill was passed that abolished capital repair fees for the elderly population. Benefits for pensioners are provided on special terms. The change took place gradually and eventually covered all regions of the Russian Federation. So who is entitled to these privileges and how not to pay for major repairs?

Privileges for pensioners to pay for overhaul

Not so long ago in our country, collections began from residents of apartment buildings for major repairs. The duration of this program is 30 years, which is a long time. Many pensioners can no longer wait for such a grandiose transformation of the house, so the State Duma deputies decided to cancel the payment for major repairs for them. Benefits for pensioners over 80 are provided without exception.

Later, this bill came into force and gradually the regions began to cancel this line in the receipt. It should be noted that the benefit applies only to non-working pensioners or to single people.

The privilege is valid if the elderly person is the owner of the property. In this case, the overhaul fee will be waived. Benefits for pensioners over 80 years old are also provided only if they have at their disposal no more than 33 sq.m or 42 sq.m for two. However, the footage is set individually in each region.

If a pensioner occupies a large territory, then a capital repair fee will be charged on the extra square, it does not fall under the benefit.

Where does the law apply and what privileges does it provide?

In general, the law is valid throughout the entire territory of the Russian Federation, that is, the payment for major repairs should be canceled throughout the country. Benefits for pensioners are declarative in nature. If you have any questions, please contact Social Security.

As a result, an elderly person who has become eligible for such a subsidy can count on:

• reduction of payment for overhaul, the benefit for pensioners of 70 years provides for a reduction in the contribution by 50%;
• full exemption from contributions - provided only for citizens whose age has exceeded 80 years;
• compensation - a pensioner still has to pay for the overhaul of an apartment building, but then these funds will be returned to him on a card or account in any bank.

What category of pensioners can count on a discount?

All pensioners who can count on privileges regarding major repairs from the state are divided into two categories.

1. Married couples or single pensioners over 70 years of age. They must meet the following requirements:

• housing must be owned;
• the pensioner should not be officially employed;
• a citizen should not have debts to pay for a communal apartment.

If all the requirements are met, then such a category of citizens is provided with a discount on contributions for major repairs in the amount of 50%.

2. Married couples or single pensioners over 80 years old. For such people there are also requirements:

• lack of an official place of work;
• housing must not be rented;
• the pensioner should not have debts on KU.

If all requirements are met, the overhaul fee will be canceled for the citizen. The benefit for pensioners over 80 is provided in the form of a refund of the amount paid. That is, a person pays for major repairs on an equal basis with everyone else, but after that the money is returned to his account.

How to get a benefit?

If a person falls under the selected categories, then in order to receive the privilege, he needs to declare. There are three methods you can use to claim your capital repair fee discount. Retirement benefits can be obtained through:

• social protection;
• Multifunctional Center;
• Portal "Gosuslugi".

It is worth noting that before this, the pensioner must pay off his debts for the KU and indicate the account where the funds will be returned monthly.

What is the required package of documents for obtaining a discount? This:

1. Statement.
2. A certificate confirming the absence of debts for a communal apartment.
3. Pensioner's passport.
4. Documents confirming the right to receive the corresponding benefits.
5. A copy of the certificate of ownership of the housing.

Drawing up an application

First you need to correctly write an application for a discount on the overhaul fee. Benefits for pensioners aged 80 and 70 without this document are not provided. A citizen can write it on their own or seek help from a social service.

It is mandatory to write in it:

• your data (full name);
• personal account number where you can transfer money;
• what privileged category does the pensioner belong to;
• date;
• signature.

It is worth noting that the regional authorities can independently change the amount of the contribution for capital repairs, however, its amount per 1 sq.m does not differ much in different regions. The state has set a minimum of 6 rubles per 1 sq.m.

Do not put off writing an application and collecting papers. In some areas, the conditions of the program are slightly different, but it works throughout the Russian Federation.

What is the danger of arbitrarily refusing to pay?

Many senior citizens hoped that the authorities would completely abolish the payment for major repairs, and benefits would be provided to pensioners without additional documents. However, for several years the situation remained at the same level.

So, lawyers warn that if a pensioner still wants to get his discount on capital repairs, he must pay this line in the receipt without fail.

If an elderly citizen arbitrarily decides to refuse to pay for overhaul and does not apply for the benefit due to him, then he loses the right to receive such a privilege. Moreover, the contribution to the capital improvement of housing is the same payment as for electricity or heating, penalties will begin to accrue on the debt over time.

If this does not help to reason with the pensioner, then the regional operator has the right to sue the citizen, and the court, in turn, will decide to collect the debt from the pensioner. In addition, if the court takes the side of the regional operator, the pensioner will also have to pay all the costs incurred by the plaintiff due to the proceedings.

The payment that comes in monthly cannot be excluded or not paid simply at the request of the property owner.

The minimum tariff for payment for this service is set in a specific subject of the Russian Federation.

The payers of utility bills are:

• owners of private property;
• owners of non-residential buildings such as hairdressers, shops and other facilities;
• owners of state and municipal facilities.

The money that residents of the house contribute is summed up and sent to a special account or to the account of a regional operator.

After that, they are used to carry out the restoration and renovation of the common part of the house property.

Paying utility bills

How exactly to transfer money for the overhaul of the house, residents will need to choose on their own. You can transfer them to the account of the regional operator or to a special account.

This must be done no later than two months after the adoption of the overhaul program in the region comes into force.

If the decision is delayed or not taken at all, then the money will be automatically transferred to the account of the local operator.

The Special Account is usually the account of a housing cooperative or HOA representing up to 30 tenants.

If this option is chosen, then the owners of the premises have to independently:

• work with the bank;
• insure an account;
• take full responsibility for the funds;
• determine the list and tariffs for the work carried out;
• look for a company for estimate services and inspection of repair work.

A special account is created to hold money transferred by the owners of a particular house.

It can be spent only for the implementation of major repairs and it should be created if the owners have the time and desire to deal with this issue.

The local operator account represents the account of government organizations. When choosing this method, all worries fall on the shoulders of the regional operator.

What is included?

The overhaul includes almost any service related to the performance of work on:

• repair;
• update;
• improving the condition of the common parts of the house.

Therefore, for the monthly fee established by the tariff, residents have the right to demand the necessary range of services for major repairs.

Utility payments for major repairs in 2018

Just a few years ago, the repair of apartment buildings was the concern of the state, and apartment owners did not take part in this.

During the 5 years of the active renovation program, more than 130 thousand residential buildings were repaired, the changes affected 15.2 million people.

Law

In January 2018, the owners of residential buildings saw a new capital repair column in their receipts for payment.

Now payment for the repair of the common parts of the house has become the responsibility of each apartment owner, and if you do not pay within a certain period, a fine is charged.

Now it will regulate utility payments for major repairs, so evasion of this type of payment can be considered a violation of the law.

Size

For each region, separate ones are established, including major repairs. On average, it turns out about 5-6 rubles per square meter.

For example, if the property has an apartment of 60 sq. meters, then the amount of utility bills will increase by about 300 rubles.

Repair list

The finances received from the payment of the overhaul column are used for the implementation of the following type of work:

1. Roof renovation and refurbishment.
2. Insulation and repair of the facade.
3. Repair or partial replacement of the elevator.
4. Reorganization of basements.
5. Repair and insulation of the facade.
6. Updating and laying engineering systems throughout the house.
7. Installation of accounting meters for general house needs.

Who doesn't pay?

According to the legislation, it is possible not to pay utility bills for major repairs in 2018 in two cases:

1. If the house is declared emergency or uninhabitable. If funds for major repairs remain on the account until the house is recognized as emergency, then they are returned to homeowners.
2. Residents of apartments that will be withdrawn by decision of the state or municipal authority will not have to pay for major repairs.

Also, there is no need to pay contributions to tenants of state and municipal real estate, because they are not considered their owners.

Housing legislation has taken care of low-income citizens. They can count on.

There are even lesser-known ways that you can avoid paying for a major home renovation. If apartment owners decide to collect finances to a special house account, then they have the right to carry out repairs at any time convenient for themselves.

According to the Housing Code, for homeowners who transfer money to a special account, the amount of payment is set at the minimum amount of the fund.

Therefore, when the amount on the account reaches the minimum level, apartment owners can stop raising funds for major repairs.

You can try to receive funds through the rental of common property, for example, if the house has non-residential premises. There is also the option of renting out the facades of the house for the provision of advertising services.

Consequences of non-payment

Many are interested in the question, what will happen to those who are not going to pay a receipt for a new utility expense item. Of course, in theory, the owner of the apartment may not pay the receipt for the overhaul in full or not pay it at all.

Sooner or later, the regional fund will begin to deal with all non-payers, adhering to the same scheme as in case of non-payment of other utility bills.

In the first stage, the debtors will receive that they must pay the full amount of the delay.

If this does not affect the defaulter, then the company has every right to sue him for.

In addition, every month for an unpaid receipt will be charged, which will also need to be paid.

Registration of a subsidy

The possibility of obtaining a subsidy is provided for by law, and if everything is done in accordance with the established rules, then the applicant has every right to receive guaranteed payments.

Citizens whose payment for major repairs exceeds the allowable percentage of spending on housing and communal services can count on a subsidy.

Prior to the entry into force of the Federal Law of the Russian Federation of December 25, 2012 No. 271-FZ “On Amending the Housing Code of the Russian Federation and Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation and Recognizing Certain Provisions of Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation as Invalid” (hereinafter Law No. 271-FZ) overhaul apartment buildings helped to conduct the housing and communal services fund. Now the fund will only sponsor the resettlement of citizens from dilapidated and dilapidated housing. After entry into force Federal Law No. 271-FZ owners of housing in apartment buildings will pay for major repairs. Repair payments are mandatory. The amount of the monthly fee in each region is set separately and will vary from 5 to 7 rubles per square meter.

Let's look at the pros and cons of Federal Law No. 271-FZ how this will affect the wallets of ordinary citizens. The new law, in fact, did not introduce a new norm into civil law, since the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (Article 210) and the LC RF (Clause 1, Article 158) clearly state:

Owners are responsible for the maintenance of owned housing. In other words, a person who has bought, privatized or otherwise acquired the right to own an apartment in an apartment building receives not only rights, but also obligations to maintain housing in proper condition (repair of the roof, facade, foundation, etc.).

Law No. 271-FZ, recognizing the payment for overhaul as mandatory for all owners, is aimed at creating a clear mechanism that will allow for the overhaul of the entire housing stock in a planned manner.

In case of misuse of funds collected for the overhaul of apartment buildings, federal law No. 271-FZ provides for the following solutions:

1st option: By the end of 2013, the regions of the Russian Federation must create a capital repair fund and establish a state enterprise - a regional operator. The regional operator will carry out capital repairs using the funds that will go to the fund according to the plan, which will include each apartment building in the constituent entity of the Russian Federation. Such lists will be compiled by local governments. The registers will be in the public domain, and every citizen will be able to follow the progress of the queue for repairs. Each region will set its own fee for residents, but the federal and regional budgets will co-finance capital repairs.

This fundraising option actually contradicts the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and the Constitution of the Russian Federation. As noted above, the owner bears the burden of maintaining his own property, but not someone else's. As a general rule, officials allow the use of collected funds from one house for the overhaul of another, according to the approved schedule. One can only guess how the queue will be formed, and who will receive assistance in the first place, and whose house will be repaired in 10 years;

2nd option: The HOA has the right to open its own special account, to which the owners will transfer contributions for capital repairs in order to form a capital repair fund. At the same time, funds from such an account can only be used for major repairs and for nothing else.

If the Management Company arbitrarily increases the amount of the contribution for capital repairs, the owners can apply to the court to protect their interests.

Video: Discussion of the law on payments for capital repairs in 2016. Is it possible to “not pay capital repairs contributions” from July 2015

Should I pay for a major home renovation in 2016?

After the entry into force of Law No. 271-FZ, owners of housing in apartment buildings will pay for major repairs. Overhaul payments are mandatory.

The amount of the monthly fee in each region is set separately and will vary from 5 to 7 rubles per square meter.
Local self-government bodies are required to create a capital repair fund and appoint a regional operator who will repair the housing stock and publish information on the state of the repaired houses on the Internet in a timely manner.
At first glance, everything is very clear, moreover, in some regions, even before the adoption of this law, the owners paid for the overhaul of residential buildings, but there are many speculations and rumors around this document about how this money will be collected and spent.
So, for example, it was not clear what fate awaits the money contributed by the tenants: whether they would put it on a separate bank account and repair only a specific house on it, or whether the authorities would create a “common pot”, the finances from which would be spent as needed.

Is there a way to avoid paying contributions for the overhaul of apartment buildings?

The law provides for three possibilities not to pay.

1. You can not pay if the house is recognized as emergency.
2. Because according to the new law on overhaul, the decision is made by the tenants themselves, then by a common decision the payment collection process can be stopped by collecting the required amount.
3. Use as contributions the funds from the rental of non-residential premises in the house (if it is common house property) and the rental of facades of the house for advertising.

As you can see, all of the above methods are just small exceptions to the rule. True, now at the level of the Russian government the issue of exemption from payment of tenants of new buildings is being discussed.

What happens to those who don't pay?

The overhaul fee will appear on your utility bill. However, Muscovites theoretically have the right to pay the receipt not in full. At the same time, the regional overhaul fund says that they will deal with debtors according to the scheme worked out by other communal organizations - first send them notifications, and then sue them. And the amount collected through the court will include interest and court costs. Therefore, it is better not to postpone payments and pay all contributions on time.

Is it possible to apply for a subsidy for the overhaul contribution?

Yes, there is such a possibility. The contribution is considered a payment for utility services. Therefore, if, with its advent, your payment for these services exceeds the standard of the maximum allowable share of citizens' expenses for housing and communal services, you will be entitled to apply for a subsidy.

What will happen if tenants paid contributions for repairs, and then their house is recognized as emergency?

Today it is one of the most difficult questions. According to the law, from the day the house is recognized as emergency, tenants will be exempted from contributions for overhaul. However, the funds collected in the common cauldron of the overhaul program cannot be directed to the resettlement of the house. Meanwhile, the program for the resettlement of dilapidated houses at the expense of the federal budget is calculated only until 2015.

Recently, a fraud scheme has appeared in which you can lose your housing, even if you have a certificate of ownership of the apartment in your hands (lying at home). Attackers simply enter into a contract of sale on your behalf, and the certificate is received as a duplicate.

Repair fee. Do I need to pay for overhaul, in what cases is it necessary to do this, are there any benefits for pensioners? These are questions that have been worrying Russians since a new column appeared in utility bills.

Should I pay for overhaul and are there benefits for certain categories of citizens? These are questions that Russians have been worrying about since a new column appeared in utility bills. It should be noted right away that overhaul contributions are classified as mandatory payments. For what purposes are they intended, what works are carried out at the expense of these funds, where and on whose accounts are they accumulated? Contributions collected from homeowners go to the established overhaul fund or to a bank account opened for these purposes, and does not depend on the decision made by the homeowners.

Do I need to pay for repairs

What work is done with overhaul fees:

• basement renovation;
• roof repairs and maintenance;
• if necessary, work is carried out to reconstruct the foundation of the building;
• repair of elevators and their replacement with new ones;
• restoration facade work;
• repair and replacement of communications, including sewer, ventilation, water supply systems, etc.

Renovation fee for new buildings

Many people are concerned about the question, but do you need to pay for major repairs in new buildings? There are some nuances that must be taken into account without fail.

The Housing Code has undergone some changes in matters relating to which residential buildings should be considered new buildings. Now, buildings that have been put into operation since July 2016 are recognized as such.

According to the new legal norms, payment for major repairs in a new house by "new settlers" is not paid for 3-5 years. The exact grace periods are determined by regional authorities.

Commissioned residential buildings before the specified period, over the next 5 years, are often under warranty service from the developer, who must fix the problems found at his own expense.

But in any case, at a general meeting of residents (whose houses have been in operation for less than 5 years), a number of issues related to further actions are resolved, including:

• with the order of collection for overhaul;
• with their size;
• with a list of priority tasks.

Important

In new buildings, capital repairs will be charged sooner or later in any case, this also applies to tenants, even temporarily exempted from such, so that fees can be made in advance, for the future.

Please note that when buying an apartment in shared construction, there is a risk factor - and where to turn?

Is it possible not to pay for overhaul

How not to pay for overhaul and is it possible? Contributions of this kind are now mandatory, although more recently their payment was voluntary. However, even now there is an opportunity to save the residents of high-rise buildings from such a "duty" on completely legal grounds. In particular, the legislator exempts the following groups of owners from mandatory contributions:

• living in residential premises officially recognized as emergency, and all the money paid by the owners for the overhaul (after the housing was declared unsuitable / dangerous for living) must be returned to them;
• those who rent out their housing, and pay contributions from the income received from tenants, of course, in this case, part of the profit will have to be lost;
• those who want to take over the responsibility for the overhaul without creating any funds, then the owners “discard” and hire a repair team to carry out certain work that is necessary at a certain stage, but the issue of savings in this case is rather controversial;
• those who decide to provide the facade of their house for the placement of advertising banners / billboards, other devices of a similar nature, and the resulting funds, the tenants have the right to use to pay off contributions for overhaul.

Unfortunately, some Russians choose the wrong path, simply refusing to pay contributions, but in the end they will not be able to save money, rather, on the contrary. So the answer to the question, whether to pay contributions for overhaul or not, is unequivocal, it is better to do this, and within the allotted time, because the accumulated debt for overhaul is fraught with unpleasant consequences.

By the way, if you have noisy neighbors, find out both day and night?

Benefits for overhaul, pensioners do not pay for overhaul?

Starting from 2016, more Russians can count on overhaul. These include, for example, those living in houses that are subject to demolition, or the seizure of land under them in order to use it for municipal / state needs.

In addition, the legislator gives the regions the right to independently establish benefits for the overhaul of certain categories of citizens, as a rule, the latter include:

• blockade, veterans of the Great Patriotic War and labor;
• a number of public sector employees, including those living in rural areas;
• liquidators of the consequences of the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant;
• families with many children;
• victims of political repressions and others.

Benefits for overhaul for pensioners deserve special attention, since their payment of contributions directly depends on their age. That is, if the homeowner has reached his 70th birthday, then he has the right to count on a 50% benefit, but only if he lives in an apartment alone or with the same pensioners.

And the overhaul benefits for pensioners whose age has crossed the 80-year mark are provided in full (100%), also on the condition that they are single.

Are there benefits for overhaul for the disabled? The answer is positive if we are talking about disabled people of groups 1 and 2, as well as about parents who have dependent children with disabilities. For such categories of citizens, payment of contributions is provided for no more than half the amount. For more information on benefits, please contact your local authorities.

Penalty for non-payment of overhaul

What happens if you don't pay for the overhaul? Debt reminders will be sent to non-payers. You should not wait until the issue of paying contributions is resolved in court, because in such a situation you will have to give detailed explanations for what reason the payment was not made. And if the court considers the arguments presented to be insignificant, then the legal costs will be recovered from the defendant, and these are additional costs, because the resulting debt will also have to be repaid. Moreover, the costs are also increased due to sanctions, since it provides for the payment of a penalty for overhaul, in case of late contributions to such. In addition, unscrupulous owners face the suspension of payments of other benefits and subsidies.

If a citizen, for some reason, does not know the amount of the fee, where can he get the necessary information? For example, how to find out the debt for major repairs at the address?

For these purposes, you can contact the overhaul fund or the management company serving a particular house. This can also be done via the Internet, since most funds and management companies have their own websites where the necessary information is indicated.

Based on the foregoing, everyone can draw conclusions regarding the overhaul contributions to pay or not to pay them, and whether it is worth waiting for the onset of negative consequences for oneself, which someday will definitely come.
