Where did the ownership certificates go, and now what in return?

More recently, when buying an apartment, they issued a certificate of ownership. This was a guarantee that the transaction was completed and the apartment was now yours. Several years ago, these certificates were canceled. But when you are not aware of this cancellation, then doubts arise about the authenticity of the transaction, and there is a feeling of deception.

You really don't need to worry. The title deeds were indeed canceled in 2016. All those certificates that were issued prior to this date are legally binding. But in principle, when carrying out real estate transactions, they are no longer needed, an extract from USRN.

USRN - this Unified State Register of Real Estate. When conducting real estate transactions, an entry is made in the USRN resources. The Federal Service for State Registration, Cadastre and Cartography maintains this register, reflecting in it all real estate transactions in our country.

In 2016, two lists of real estate accounting were kept for some time - the USRR and the State Real Estate Cadastre. A little later they were combined into one accounting system - USRN. Therefore, if you suddenly see an extract from the USRR, do not worry. It also has power.

The main advantage of an extract from the USRN is its relevance and reliability. Certificate of ownership - the document is not entirely reliable. He helps scammers. After all, the owner of the real estate could change, and the certificate, nevertheless, could remain on hand. An extract from the USRN for real estate transactions is always issued fresh with a round seal of the Rosreestr. This statement reflects the entire history of the property and full information about all transactions that are with it were carried out, as well as the type of ownership of real estate - equity or full-fledged, existing encumbrances and restrictions right. This is very important for buyers of living space. An extract can be very helpful.

Obtaining an extract from the USRN is a simple process. This can be done both in paper and electronic form. You can request a paper statement in one of the MFC branches. It is issued within a few days. When applying for an extract request, you will need to pay a state fee - 450 rubles. You can request an electronic statement online on the Rosreestr website. Usually it is sent out within 24 hours.

An extract from the USRN is a registration document. In addition to it, there must be a document of title. This is the one on the basis of which the owner obtained the ownership. For example, a sales contract, a certificate of donation, inheritance, etc. An extract from the USRN is a document confirming the registration of this right and the existence of restrictions.
