Andrei Vorobyov admitted inability to solve the problem of equity holders. How to get into the register of deceived equity holders? Government Decision on defrauded equity holders

  • 19.12.2019

Regional authorities will quarterly report to the Ministry of Construction on how they solve the problem of defrauded equity holders. The ratio of the number of agreements of share participation in problematic facilities to the total number of DDUs will be taken into account when assessing the effectiveness of regional authorities. In turn, the Ministry of Construction will report to the government on a quarterly basis, said department head Mikhail Men during the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

The obligation of the authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation to report on the solution of the problem of defrauded equity holders is fixed in the order of the government No. 1063-r, which Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev signed on May 26. According to the document, the regions should draw up plans (“road maps”) of work in this direction according to the approved form by August 1. The plan should include lists of problematic facilities and dishonest companies, statistics on defrauded equity holders, and legislative, organizational, and financial measures that regional authorities plan to take to solve the problem. Deputy governors are appointed responsible for the implementation of the roadmaps.

According to the decree, progress reports and updated plans should be sent to the Ministry of Construction on a quarterly basis. The department has the responsibility to monitor the implementation of the “road maps” and report to the government on how the regions facilitate the situation of equity holders. “It is important for the regional authorities to tighten control over the terms of construction of houses that are being built with the help of citizens' funds, as well as the implementation of measures aimed at restoring the rights of defrauded real estate investors,” the press service of the Ministry of Construction quotes Mikhail Me.

According to the ministry, the number of child care in problem homes of the total number of such agreements concluded by citizens on average in the country is 5.43%. In some regions, it exceeds 20%, and in a number of regions, on the contrary, it is below the average.

The president of the Moscow Region Developers Association, Andrey Puchkov, believes that the participation of the authorities of the subjects in solving the problem can significantly improve the situation of defrauded real estate investors nationwide. “Our experience with the government of the Moscow region confirms that if the region is actively involved in the fate of deceived equity holders, then the problem is being solved. In the Moscow region, efforts began to be actively made, and out of 20 thousand cheated, 5.5 thousand remained. A lot depends on the position of local authorities, if this approach is applied throughout the country, then, of course, the reliability of the market will increase, ”Andrei Puchkov quotes newspaper

Last November, I wrote a blog about our work on solving the problem of defrauded equity holders. Once again about the current situation and new steps of the Moscow Government.

Since 2011, thanks to the assistance of city authorities, over 11 thousand deceived equity holders have received their apartments. Believe me, it was extremely difficult to do this.

However, today in Moscow there are more than 30 problematic objects that can be divided into several groups.

  1. Objects for which decisions are made

At eight addresses, decisions were taken and are being implemented to restore the rights of affected citizens.

List of these objects:

  1. Buildable objects

Only 14 objects. Where former investors were unable to continue the project, the city attracted new developers.

Seven addresses are currently resuming construction work.

For seven more objects, the planned dates for the resumption and completion of construction are determined.

The task of the Moscow Government is to interact with new developers, to monitor the implementation of obligations, to ensure that in the end all affected citizens receive their apartments.

50 percent

Shcherbinka, Ovrazhnaya street, ownership 3, 8

60 percent

The analysis of the situation at each of these objects. Based on the results, a decision was made to continue the search for new real estate developers at seven out of ten addresses. According to experts, to solve this problem will be difficult, but possible.


Special situation

The most difficult situation is for the deceived real estate investors of Tsaritsyno, Akadem Palace and Terletsky Park.


Attracting new investors at these sites is objectively impossible or the search process will take many years.

For example, in the Tsaritsyno residential complex, the former investor refuses any form of constructive cooperation with the Moscow Government. The new investor, Promsvyazbank, which seems to have promised to tackle the problems of the long-suffering LCD, is now solving its own problems.

For each of these LCDs, a long train of criminal cases stretches, flagrant abuses and managerial errors are revealed.


To help the defrauded real estate investors of the Tsaritsyno, Akadem Palace and Terletsky Park, they decided to take advantage of the recent amendments to the legislation on shared construction and bankruptcy.

We agreed with the Russian Ministry of Construction that within the framework of the bankruptcy procedure of unscrupulous investors, these residential complexes will be transferred to the city organization, which will become a new developer. In fact, the city will act as a guarantor and take responsibility for completion. Affected citizens will receive their apartments.

Of course, the bankruptcy process is not fast, but not endless.

The decision is not simple, literally unprecedented, but I see no other way out of this situation.

The Russian authorities continue to struggle to solve the problem - how to provide housing to deceived participants in shared construction. The scale is impressive. Interest holders themselves claim that at least three million people have suffered from unscrupulous companies. But official statistics show a figure a hundred times smaller: 36.6 thousand people appear in the registry of the Ministry of Construction. About the most interesting regional practices - in the Federal Press material.

The situation with deceived equity holders became especially acute last summer; hundreds of thousands of people across the country attended rallies. To solve the problem radically, Vladimir Putin instructed to develop a “road map”, which will gradually abandon this construction scheme. From July 1, 2019, developers will be prohibited from accepting money from citizens for apartments not yet built. Payment for housing from buyers will be accumulated on special escrow accounts in authorized banks and stored until the completion of the construction of the house. It is assumed that so co-investors will be fully insured.

Crisis or withdrawal?

But while in 68 Russian regions there are those who are trying to achieve justice. In fairness, we note that now their problems are being solved. The most effective mechanism is as follows. The company, which is completing the problematic object, is given privileges by giving it a lease of land without tendering. A house is being built on this land, apartments are being sold there, and the problem object is being completed with the proceeds. This significantly accelerated the process of providing apartments to deceived people.

The reasons for the appearance of deceived equity holders in the regions are approximately the same:

Companies at the stage of building the house raised money, but people did not receive apartments, because the construction of housing stopped. There are several reasons for this - both the problems of the companies themselves, which have not calculated strengths, and the market ones - for example, after the crisis of 2014, construction increased sharply, apartment sales fell, and banks stopped giving loans to borrowers, but somewhere developers tried to withdraw money banally.

It probably makes no sense to talk about all the cases - and we have summarized those cases where the most deceived equity holders or their appearance was caused by not quite ordinary factors.

Ural Federal District: interest holders brought down the housing market

In the Ural Federal District, the Chelyabinsk Region can be considered the most problematic region. According to the ministries of construction and infrastructure of the Chelyabinsk region, the region currently has 45 long-term construction projects, in which about four thousand interest holders are waiting for apartments. There are two major problem sites here - the Academ Riverside, which was built by Greenlight and Churilovo Lake City by Rechelstroy.

A rather interesting story is connected with the latter. Russian President Vladimir Putin, departing from Chelyabinsk, where he was on a visit on November 9, last year, called the representative of the initiative group of co-investors of the Rechelstroy construction company Elena Malinina. The conversation lasted several minutes and concerned the unfinished microdistrict. After that, a criminal case against the developer intensified in the region

According to the Ministry of Construction and Infrastructure of the Chelyabinsk Region, there are currently 45 long-term construction projects in the region, in which about four thousand interest holders are waiting for apartments. But objects are quickly being completed. So, in December 2017, five houses were commissioned in the Akadem Riverside microdistrict for almost 1,700 interest holders, and by the end of 2018, the investor plans to populate all the affected customers. Some of them will be moved to houses of a higher degree of readiness. In late 2017 - early 2018, the construction of the first stage of the Churilovo Lake City microdistrict of the Rechelstroy company was resumed, in which, according to a court decision, an observation procedure was introduced. In 2017, the company froze the construction of 18 multi-storey buildings. One of them was nevertheless able to be completed and commissioned, having populated 110 participants in shared construction.

Oddly enough, in Chelyabinsk, the situation even served as a catalyst for complex market mechanisms: In the city, like nowhere else in Russia, the average price per square meter in a new building is lower than in the secondary market. Many people prefer to buy a resale or a finished house, than to invest in houses at the construction stage.   “There is no massive fear of new buildings, because there are developers who have a good reputation, and people trust them so far. But people are apprehensive about shared agreements and therefore there is a shift in interest towards finished housing, ”   - says the development director of the LLC Real Estate Service Real Estate LLC in Chelyabinsk Denis Stukalov.

In the Middle Urals they decided not to offend anyone

In the Sverdlovsk region, affected shareholders in official lists are only slightly less than in Chelyabinsk, but the problem for the region as a whole and for Yekaterinburg is not as acute as in Chelyabinsk. There are 16 problematic objects in the region. The number of victims - 3760, for the most part these are little-known complexes. It was decided in the region that not only those who participated in shared construction, but also those who were members of the housing and construction cooperative would be included in the list of defrauded real estate investors. The problem of the largest residential complex was solved: Zapadny residential complex, where 1,480 people were left without housing. A criminal case is ongoing against the former developer, VVK Company. At the same time, the construction of residential buildings has actually been completed. The houses are partially handed over to citizens and settled.

Now almost all problematic construction projects in the region already have new investors, and residents no longer worry about whether they will get an apartment, but that they do not get exactly what they sometimes agreed with non-existent companies many years ago. In particular, some residents of the residential complex “Shcherbakova 20” did not agree to participate in the exchange of their shares for apartments in a house built by the Sverdlovsk Housing Credit Agency. The shareholders of another problematic residential complex - "New Uktus", in turn, are unhappy with the pace of construction with a new investor.

Deception is the lot of the rich

Assessing the history of the Tyumen region and the autonomous okrugs, you understand - nevertheless, big scandals with levitation are the fate of poor regions. For example, in the Tyumen region, judging by the information of the main construction department of the region, there are three problem houses. Two of them were built by Continent PSK in Tyumen; another unfinished building is located in the village of Bogandinsky on Shkolnaya Street. Its developer is LyuMax Engineering LLC, where 18 people suffered from the actions of the developer. The history of the first two long-term construction stretches for about 20 years. All objects are put under control, including the prosecutor's office and the regional authorities.

On the website of the Housing and Construction Supervision Service of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug - Ugra, it was published that as of February 1, 2018, the register of deceived equity holders in the region contains nine apartment buildings and 126 people. In the middle of last year, the Ugra government developed and began implementing a regional schedule that will allow us to find an individual approach to each individual case of defrauded real estate investors.

But, what is especially surprising, in this region those who entrusted their money to pro-government organizations became deceived equity holders. For example, in Nefteyugansk the district Housing Foundation was building a 20-story building in the city center. But the deadlines for the delivery of the house were repeatedly postponed. The fund explained the lag behind the schedule with defects in project documentation and dishonesty of suppliers of building materials. Concerning the leadership of the "Housing", an administrative offense case was initiated under Part 2 of Article 14.28 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation ("Violation of the requirements of the law on participation in shared construction of apartment buildings").

The situation is similar in Yamal, where there are just over a hundred deceived equity holders and two houses have not been commissioned. One of them, in the village of Aksarka, was to be built as part of the target program “Social development of the village until 2013”. As a result of the liquidation of the construction company, the head stole money and damaged the budget of the Autonomous Okrug in the amount of more than 19 million rubles, and four families suffered.

The efforts of the authorities in the region are recognized even by critical public figures. For example, the head of the regional working group of the All-Russian Popular Front "The quality of everyday life" in the Tyumen region Sergey Soloviev   says that the most important point in the problem of shared construction in the region is that the authorities do not leave deceived equity holders alone with their problems, sometimes making efforts beyond their powers. “By and large, shared construction is an investment project. And the authorities could pretend that this case concerns only the builder and the shareholder and fits into the framework of civil law relations. But, to the delight of equity holders and to the honor of the government, in most cases decisions are made in favor of deceived people.

The statistics speak for themselves - during the implementation of the program to save citizens from dishonest actions of developers, the problems of more than 5 thousand people have been solved. And now this topic in the region is by no means global in nature. All troubled homes are under control. ”

NWFD: in Peter anti-leaders

The register of deceived equity holders of the Leningrad Region lists only about a thousand people, but these are only officially recognized as such. But both the region and the northern capital itself are leaders in the district in the number of deceived equity holders and frozen objects. A significant part of new housing in the region is being built on the border with St. Petersburg, and residents of the northern capital often participate in shared construction of apartments.

There are many victims and the official statistics do not like the affected equity holders. “At the beginning of 2018, we had 47 objects in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region of problems that were included in our coordination council, these were about 35.7 thousand families, of which 26 in St. Petersburg, 16.2 thousand families, and the rest in the Leningrad Region. In the Leningrad region, considering it is more difficult - these are mainly objects with mutual contracts and they are essentially without protection at all - the only tool is recovery through the court, and when we start to sue, the developer has already withdrawn money from the company, ”a representative of the Coordination Council told FederalPress deceived equity holders and shareholders of St. Petersburg and Lenobolasti Elena Khudyakova.

At the same time, according to Elena Khudyakova, the figures that officials call talking about the delivery of objects are not always correct. “No one checks the condition of these houses for rent, this is the problem - some rent without networks, like in our city on Vasilievsky Island, in the Leningrad region - our fellow victims from the Krasnaya Zvezda residential complex completed their work at their own expense,”   she says.

Representatives of regional authorities agree that measures should be taken at the federal level. “We ask the federal authorities for greater authority in organizing assistance to affected equity holders - financial to complete the facilities, introducing a simplified procedure for removing unfinished assets without bankruptcy proceedings and a tougher mechanism requiring developers to enter homes,” said the Governor of the Leningrad Region Alexander Drozdenko in February.

Pskov: there is only one case

In the Pskov region in recent times there has been only one case with defrauded real estate investors: during the construction of a residential building on Industrial Street. The building company Stroy-Krom was supposed to rent out a house for 54 apartments in mid-2015, the deadlines for two years were repeatedly postponed. In the final, the company abandoned construction due to financial problems. In the summer, the chairman of the regional assembly, Alexander Kotov, found a construction company that agreed to complete the project. In February 2018, the story ended, residents began to receive certificates of registration of ownership.

Meanwhile, for more than a year now, the conflict has continued between residents of the city who bought apartments under preliminary agreements and loan agreements through the Stroy-SA contracting organization, which built the objects of the largest local developer LUG Group of Companies, associated with the deputy of the Pskov Regional Assembly, Jan Luzin.

“The company paid the contractor for apartments under construction, and he raised the funds of citizens. For 4 years everything was fine, but then Luzin terminated the contract with the contractor, although about 40 apartments have already been sold. There is no exact quantity - many did not apply for recognition as victims. Many people already lived in apartments, but the developer sealed them at the end of 2016. "- said "FederalPress" the head of the initiative group of victims Irina Kirillova.

According to her, the interim governor Mikhail Vedernikov held a meeting in December on the situation, it was decided that the administration would conduct an independent examination of the construction to understand how much the contractor had invested in the house and whether they were actually taken from citizens. “Now the deputy governor took a break until March 1 with the promise that he would talk with the developer in order to again allocate some objects to the contractor to fulfill obligations,” Kirillova concluded.

Kant's homeland is confused among equity holders

In the Kaliningrad region, they still cannot count all the deceived equity holders. According to the Ministry of Construction and Housing and Communal Services of the region at the beginning of January 2018, there were 13 distressed shared construction objects in the region. Over 1,100 citizens have signed equity agreements with developers of these facilities. At the same time, the FederalPress journalist was voiced by other statistics at the Ministry of Regional Control: 303 defrauded equity holders who invested in 21 real estate properties.

As it turned out, the Ministry of Control maintains a federal register of affected citizens, in which equity holders are included on the basis of their applications. The Ministry of Construction, on the other hand, takes into account the total number of share agreements in the construction of facilities recognized as problematic. Not all unfinished buildings receive such a status - if there is hope to complete the construction without recognizing the object as problematic, the authorities try to use other mechanisms, said Alexander Nikulin, chairman of the Permanent Committee on Economic Policy and Infrastructure Development of the Kaliningrad Regional Duma.

In the Kaliningrad region, as the deputy noted, the authorities are actively involved in solving the problems of defrauded equity holders, and the regional legislation has been fully regulated today. However, it is impossible to expect an early resolution of all issues - a difficult and long way ahead. In particular, last year the regional Duma adopted a law that provides for the provision of compensatory land for investors, which will help complete the shared construction projects.
So far, it has not come to the allocation of land, said Alexander Nikulin.

Novgorod: construction stopped after the sale of 37 apartments

In the Novgorod region, the problem is not particularly acute. In 2017, the regional government decided to take control of the situation with the construction of a 44-apartment building on 43 Shimskaya Street in Veliky Novgorod. The developer LLC Express has sold 37 apartments, after which the construction was stopped. A criminal case under the article “Fraud” is being investigated. In July 2017, equity holders took part in a rally. In August, the government of the Novgorod region approved a “road map”, according to which it is necessary to find a new developer before the second quarter of 2018, and to complete the building by the end of the year. Another developer, in respect of which interest holders expressed dissatisfaction, Top Flor LLC has so far escaped criminal proceedings.

There are no real estate investors in Karelia, there are bad housing cooperatives

Scandals with new buildings are not uncommon in this region. Nevertheless, according to Dmitry Daniliev, the head of the Center for Public Control of the NP “Housing and Public Utilities Control”, the problem of defrauded holders in the region is not acute.

“In Karelia, most cases do not fall under the law on equity holders. Basically, this is ZhSK - when the money collected from shareholders is lost, ”the public activist said. - The state here can hardly help. People organize housing cooperatives at their own peril and risk - they are practically not protected by law. From the point of view of criminal law, it is also difficult to prove anything here. The developers who raised the money, as a rule, do not refuse to complete the "frozen" objects - they refer to financial problems. They say, "We will return everything." And fraud - the article itself is so interesting that if someone stole something, but assures that he will return it is very difficult to attract him. ”

One of the most unpleasant stories of recent years has occurred with the shareholders of ZhKK “New Saynavolok”, who invested their money in the construction of low-rise residential buildings on the Onego shore, but got “unfinished” instead of apartments. People were supposed to celebrate the housewarming in 2014. And have not celebrated so far. In the prosecutor’s office, the shareholders were told that the leaders of the cooperative used a straightforward financial scheme: people who concluded a share contribution agreement paid for the construction of other people's apartments. The chairman of the construction cooperative Diana Gavarikova is tried for fraud. A woman faces up to 10 years in prison. Desperate shareholders are trying to finish building on their own.

According to Dmitry Daniliev, not so long ago, the Karelian authorities proposed Moscow to legally ban developers from collecting money from people before housing is built. However, the fate of the bill is still unknown.

FEFD: Vladivostok is not interesting for developers

In this district, the most problematic is not the largest market - Vladivostok, but the Amur Region. In total, according to the district general prosecutor’s office, as of July 1, 2017, 229 developers in the macro region are attracting citizens ’funds at 401 shared construction projects. According to prosecutors, the construction of 50 of them was suspended or was carried out in violation of the established deadlines. Most of these cases were recorded in the Amur Region, where 19 problematic facilities are located. Another 18 are in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), 10 in the Primorsky Territory, 2 in the Kamchatka Territory and 1 in the Khabarovsk Territory.

According to the administration of the Amur Territory, the Amur residents suffered most from the work of three developers. 254 people cannot receive the housing they paid for from SK Gorodok LLC, another 67 people from NEP LLC, and 18 people from Gorizont LLC. A total of 339 deceived equity holders turned to the regional social protection authorities for state support measures.

In the Khabarovsk Territory, there is only one problematic object - the house of the RC Rainbow. People who paid their square meters cannot enter new apartments since 2014. The developer of Tekhnositi LLC owed Vodokanal to MUE and was unable to connect the facility to utilities, construction began. Delivery dates were postponed many times. But now the problem is solved - according to the assurances of representatives of the regional authorities, the housewarming will take place this year.

In Vladivostok, there is one of the eight most problematic construction projects in the Primorsky Territory - the Snow Pad microdistrict. Here, interest holders are "stuck" in the construction under the program "Housing for the Russian family." Future residents took a mortgage, but the houses have not yet been leased. The situation was controlled by the newly appointed acting governor Andrei Tarasenko. Work at the facilities has resumed, and now they promise that the first phase of construction will be completed at the end of this year, the second phase in the first quarter of 2019.

Head of the regional supervision and control inspection in the field of shared construction Mikhail Zaichenko   noted that problematic objects appeared in the 2000s, there haven’t been any new ones since then. “This is facilitated by both the preventive work of the inspection with developers and the tightening of legislation in the field of shared construction. Now, each developer who intends to participate in shared construction must have a bank guarantee and transfer funds to a compensation fund, which, in which case, will pay the funds to equity holders. The second important innovation for all developers, especially for the negligent, is criminal liability. In Primorye, some developers are already under investigation. ”The inspection’s position in terms of control has also been tightened up, we are doing everything so that not a single resident of the region gets into such a terrible situation”,- declared Zaichenko.

Volga Federal District: runaway developers and SU-155

One of the most problematic regions of the okrug is Samara Oblast, but here everything has changed significantly with the advent of a new governor, ”says Victor Chasovskikh, Chairman of the Committee on Construction and Housing and Public Utilities of the Public Chamber of the Samara Region.

According to him, the situation with deceived equity holders is changing, a real impetus has been made. More than 400 people have already received apartments with the advent of the acting governor, and this is only the beginning.   “If earlier this process was left to chance, today the ministry feels tight control from the head of the region and is activating. I think that at least 80-90% of interest holders in the coming year, a maximum of two, will receive their apartments. Only particularly problematic objects will remain, with which they will have to work more precisely. For example, the village of Dubrava. There, to resolve the situation, it is necessary to attract regional and, perhaps, federal funds ”- says Chasovskikh.

Now the region has 42 problematic facilities. The register of defrauded real estate investors consists of 3,439 citizens affected by the actions of unscrupulous developers.

But there are problems in the region that do not allow you to quickly give all apartments to deceived people. Says the head of the center "Regional Studies" Dmitry Loboiko.

“Of course, in order for numerous objects to be completed, they must be transferred to new developers. That new developers undertook it, it is necessary for them to provide new attractive sites. The number of such sites is limited. Moreover, in the conditions of the market decline, it seems that the sites are not the most valuable thing that can be given to the developer. ”

Loboiko says that it makes sense for Samara to take a closer look at the experience of Moscow, where they took the path of financing construction companies at the budgetary expense. “The innovation there was taking into account the buyback of constructed or under construction objects. Local developers expect something similar from the regional authorities ”he says.

Businessmen from the Titov List live here

The Nizhny Novgorod region has become one of those where the notorious SU-155 holding company operated. On his account, hundreds of thousands of victims in Moscow and the Moscow region, St. Petersburg, Ivanovo and Vladimir regions.

The Government of the Nizhny Novgorod Region, FederalPress, reported that, as of February 1, 2018, the federal register of citizens affected by shared construction included information on 791 citizens for 12 facilities (a total of 2,151 participants in shared construction). At the same time, the regional government is additionally working on six more problematic facilities, in which there are 213 equity holders. In 2017, the construction and commissioning of 11 problematic residential buildings with a total area of \u200b\u200b80.9 thousand square meters was completed in the Nizhny Novgorod Region. meters, solved the problems of 984 citizens participating in shared construction.

Director of the Center for Scientific Expertise Tatyana Romancheva   notes that last year the volume of houses that were completed by deceived equity holders was quite large. So, two houses were handed over on Oranzhereinaya Street, four houses of the SU-155 Group of Companies, houses on the streets of Varvarskaya, Proletarskaya, Belinsky. “Interest holders are of two types: some deceived equity holders, and others - deceived owners. Because when the construction is delayed, many take ownership (and there are such houses) and then become not deceived by the interest holders, but the owners of the unfinished building, and by law they should be invested in the completion like the investor, ”the expert recalled. In 2018, according to her assessment, two houses of the Kvartstroy holding “European” holding can be commissioned, Atlant remains frozen, two houses of the VVKS.

In 2016 and 2017, the government of the Nizhny Novgorod region acknowledges, the region’s largest problem was the failure to fulfill obligations by the Kvartstroy group of companies that was implementing housing projects to shared construction participants, including the Novinki Smart City residential complex in the Bogorodsky district. There, Kvartstroy Center LLC planned to build 34 apartment buildings with the participation of interest holders, and, as FederalPress wrote earlier, the number of injured participants in shared construction was 1854.

Interestingly, the three leaders from the Kvartstroy holding company - Alexander Delis, Alexander Baygushev and Pavel Vlasyuk, put on the wanted list by the Nizhny Novgorod police, were on the so-called "Titov list", which included businessmen who want to return to their homeland. According to the Commissioner for Entrepreneurs' Rights, Boris Titov, the wanted persons have assets - several plots in the center of Nizhny Novgorod and a plot in the Bogorodsky district - which they are ready to give to a new investor to pay off their debts and solve the problem of interest holders.

In the small and not rich Kirov region in the regional registry consists of 204 people in eight objects. But this list is incomplete: those who started to fight for the right to move into their housing only a few months ago are not officially considered “deceived”. Problems with inclusion in the register are also those whose developers, despite financial problems and a delay in terms, do not want to declare themselves bankrupt. In this situation, for example, New Sergeyevo interest holders: they were supposed to get the keys more than a year ago, but they did not officially “deceived” - there is a movement of funds on the accounts of the developer Techcomservice.

The government of the Kirov region declares that there is no financial opportunity to complete the facilities at the expense of the budget. They promised to solve the problem in the Legislative Assembly of the region - at the end of last year, parliamentarians adopted a law that allows the completion of the construction of a problem house for other companies in exchange for renting a land plot for development without bidding. The documents will take effect in March. By this time should be added a few more months for the preparation of tender documentation, search and discussion of land options, approvals required for the completion of facilities. The government believes that the first houses can be completed by mid-2018.

At the protests, however, the deceived equity holders say: since the officials could not prevent the appearance of the deceived equity holders, they must allocate budget funds to complete the facilities.

Are interest holders always affected?

Russian law is on the side of the victims, and a developer who does not fulfill his obligations can indeed be punished. Thousands of deceived people flock around the country without housing .. But do they always strike a balance between the need to assert their rights from the desire to get rich at the expense of a construction company? For example, equity holders are given very large penalties for the fact that the company broke the deadlines for putting the object into operation. This is now one of the most subtle and debatable issues in the industry. So, in a professional environment, the decision of the Moscow arbitration court is still being discussed: in January, the court issued a decision according to which a sum of forfeit equal to the price of the apartment was awarded to the citizen for a delay in transferring the apartment in 2.5 months.

And now, lawyers who are trying to cash in on the problems of defrauded real estate investors have begun to actively tighten the scheme - punish the developer. According to the National Association of Housing Developers, lawyers reveal in open sources cases of violation by the developer of the terms for transferring objects, they offer interest holders to conclude an agreement on the assignment of rights of claims for forfeit.

The acquirer of the right to claim forfeit is a legal entity or an individual entrepreneur: this gives the right to appeal to the arbitration court, where cases are resolved faster. There, the buyer of the right seeks the full payment of the penalty and the fine from the developer.

But the victims in this case, as a rule, are not the builders, but other equity holders whose houses have not been completed yet - after all, these lawyers take money from the builder, which should go to the construction of the following houses.

Why do not you want to move to a house without an autonomous boiler room?

For example, it happened in Novosibirsk, where one of the developers delayed the delivery of the house for a year. then he paid several million rubles to the residents as a forfeit and went into bankruptcy, leaving the following houses without housing for investors.

There are other cases - for example, in Yekaterinburg, some real estate investors flatly refuse to move to finished apartments, which they are given as compensation for housing that is not completed due to the fault of the company. Out of 126, only 76 people relocated, the rest are unhappy that their new house does not have an autonomous boiler room, and the new residential complex itself is located further from public transport than the previous one. “These, as we understand it, are the so-called investors who are not faced with an acute problem of where to live,”   - says the head of the regional Ministry of Construction Mikhail Volkov.

If the problem in Yekaterinburg can be attributed to the whims of disappointed investors, then the situation with the repayment of debts worries the professional community.

For example, the national association of housing developers proposes to prohibit the assignment of rights to claims forfeit arising from the obligations of the developer under an agreement on participation in shared construction. In a letter addressed to the Minister of Construction and Housing and Public Utilities of the Russian Federation Mikhail Me and the Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Natural Resources, Property and Land Relations Nikolai Nikolaev, it is said that in connection with the forced postponement of the commissioning of houses only at the end of 2017, participants in shared construction are eligible for the payment of a penalty in the aggregate for all commissioned houses in the amount of about 300 billion rubles. According to the association, consumer terrorism is a conflict between equity holders of unfinished houses with professional lawyers who are redeeming the right to claim forfeit from the owners of already built apartments in houses that are overdue.

The letter was sent to the authorities on January 18. The non-profit association FederalPress said that they have not yet received an official response from the authorities to their proposals. According to our data, the proposal will be accepted, but the wording is somewhat softened - the protection of the rights of interest holders remains a priority for the Russian government.

Terrorism is in the details

In government offices, an approach is still being developed to the effect that consumer extremism may also be in the actions of deceived people. So, the Federation Council said that a home buyer always loses. I am sure of this, for example, a member of the Committee on Economic Policy of the Council of the Russian Federation Vladimir Kravchenko.

« This, in my opinion, is about a banal thirst for profit from law firms, and the consumer almost always loses in this process. What consequences can this lead to? Firstly, builders will have additional costs, which again affect the cost of housing, and, as a result, in the pockets of consumers.

A similar situation developed in the car insurance market, when lawyers literally overwhelmed insurers with litigation. I think the effect of the high cost of CTP policies was felt by many motorists. Now, by the way, many of these car lawyers have simply retrained as “builders”. You just need to type a request for claims to the developer in any search engine and you will be picked up several dozen commercial offers.

Secondly, often, citizens find themselves embroiled in dubious stories, in which lawyers take money from them for those services that will be provided to consumers, and so on, by the builder, state bodies. Very often it turns out that lawyers convince consumers to resolve the issue immediately in court. Although in practice, a person could have submitted legitimate requirements to the developer himself, and the shortcomings would have been eliminated. Ultimately, even if the claim is satisfied, the amount of payments in many cases is less than the costs associated with paying for the services of an intermediary. According to my information, in the Tomsk region, the region that I represent in the Federation Council, the “average check” for such representatives is about 50,000 rubles. And this money is paid by low-income consumers. They pay for ordinary application preparation services without guarantee of result. Thirdly, litigation affects the timing of construction and commissioning of housing. And this, again, is a cost to ordinary citizens. At this time, people have to rent a house, endure household inconveniences. ”- said the Federal Press Vladimir Kravchenko.

The ONF Federal Press said that the problem of consumer extremism is not as important for the market as there are now tens of thousands of deceived equity holders in the country. “There are Russian laws that must be implemented. And if the courts decide that the developer is obliged to pay for their mistakes, then the company should do this. In the end, the risks of shared construction should be shared by all participants in the process. ”   - noted Nikolay Nikolaev, Head of the Center for Monitoring the Implementation of Presidential Decrees "People's Expertise" ONF.

“It is very important that the state represented by the Government of the Russian Federation gives a certain impetus to the leaders of the subjects, that they more specifically relate to these problems, and that the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Russian Federation deals with the issue of interest holders,”   - I am sure the deputy chairman of the commission on local government and housing and communal policy of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation Igor Shpector.

The State Duma says that deceived extremist interest holders are a rather exotic phenomenon for the market. “I haven’t encountered any cases of abuse of my rights by the shareholder, now all conditions are specified in the agreements in sufficient detail,” says a member of the Russian parliament Sergey Bidonko. - We must seek a balance of interests between developers and future homeowners. In this area, of the measures already implemented by the state, I would mention the law on the compensation fund, which has already entered into force. According to the new legislation, all developers deduct interest to the fund - 1.2% of the contract price. And if the object is recognized as unfinished, it can be completed at the expense of the fund, or interest holders will receive monetary compensation. I believe that such measures will increase the efficiency of developers and will secure future homeowners ”- he is sure.

What will happen next?

The issue of project financing of housing is also being discussed now - people will purchase it only after putting the facility into operation. This is an idea that needs discussion - we must be sure that we are implementing this option with cheap loans for developers.

Now there are really many initiatives that will fundamentally solve the problem of defrauded equity holders - because today the country is undergoing the largest housing reform. Last summer, an important political decision was made that in three years the existing model of shared construction will be replaced by a new one, when the risks will not be taken by citizens, but by professional market participants. ” This mechanism is expected to work from July 1, 2018.

It's about project finance. At the transitional stage - from July 1, 2018 to July 30, 2019 - it is planned to finance housing construction both using escrow accounts or other special bank accounts, as well as through participation agreements in shared construction concluded directly with the developer taking into account existing protection mechanisms rights holders.

The final stage - from July 1, 2019 to December 31, 2020 - is the transition to the conclusion of all contracts for participation in shared construction using the escrow account mechanism or special accounts.

Is Escrow exactly about Russia?

“Today we can already talk about the general contours of the target model for financing housing construction,” stressed Nikolai Nikolaev, head of the State Duma’s profile committee at the State Duma hearings at the end of February. “This is an obligation to open escrow accounts in a bank that has provided a credit line to a developer; establishing requirements for banks in which escrow accounts can be opened; exclusion of the obligation to accrue interest on funds of participants in shared construction on an escrow account; establishing the fact of putting the property on the state cadastral registration as the basis for the transfer of equity funds to the developer. ”

An important role will be assigned to the compensation fund created to guarantee the completion of construction, protecting the interests of citizens participating in shared construction. Since the beginning of its work (since the end of October 2017), the fund has collected about 180 million rubles, while taking responsibility for a total of about 20 billion rubles at a rate of 1.2%.

Where will the price of an apartment go?

Thus, in the near future the construction market will basically change. And there are new risks - professionals warn: for example, the price of apartments can increase. “At the moment, the most ambitious initiative is the idea of \u200b\u200bproject financing. However, I believe that with the introduction of this idea a little hurried - maybe it was not worth it to rush and chop off the shoulder. If project financing is implemented in the current proposed version, the cost of housing will increase sharply in the country - ten percent, or maybe even higher. Housing prices in Moscow and the Moscow Region will go up the most, and as a result, speculative offers will appear on the market, among other things. In this scheme, the only way is soft loans for developers, or providing financing for them at attractive, low interest rates. In the current scheme, banks use virtually free money from future homeowners. In order to avoid problems, it is necessary to reduce the price of the housing market ”,   - says the committee’s overhaul, the State Duma Committee on State Building and Legislation Mikhail Emelyanov.

“The measures taken by the state help to avoid the replication of troubled construction projects in the future. The measures are aimed at stopping the shaft of companies that, through improper planning and other erroneous actions (including fraud), have led to default on obligations under equity agreements ”- says the first deputy chairman of the committee on housing policy and housing and communal services of the State Duma Alexander Sidyakin.

Today, 01/13/2018 interest holders in Moscow and the Moscow Region held a mass appeal to the Moscow Government and the Presidential Administration. From 10 a.m. interest holders gathered around the reception hall of the City Hall to make an appointment. But in spite of the fact that this Saturday was declared a reception day, the reception was canceled and the doors for interest holders were closed. It was proposed to omit the appeal in a box that was full. Outraged citizens turned around and went to the reception of the Presidential Administration. While the interest holders were on their way to the AP, a message was already received about this and the Administration's employees closed the doors, restricting the entrance of people to two people and opened an additional window on the street for receiving letters. Very touching concern. As a result, people froze on the street in the cold.
  Real estate investors Tsaritsyno have been hopelessly waiting for their apartments for several years. Every year, officials assure that the LCD will be built from TV screens and pages of various publications. But the sight of a collapsing construction site continues to frighten even a raven with despondency. To date, the delay in equity agreements is about 5 years.
  Exhausted by the expectation, people are forced to resort to various street actions to attract the attention of officials: starting from mass appeals to various authorities, pickets, flash mobs, check-in, hanging banners, and a hunger strike. But while all this has attracted the attention of only law enforcement agencies, the police have been appearing at the place of the proposed action for a long time. Interest-holders have not yet received any help other than threats from the police.
Thanks to the protest movement of interest holders, officials woke up from hibernation and began to invent amendments to the laws and new bills worse than the other. Concerned about the requirement to establish the criminal liability of an official for the oversight of which a deceit occurred at a controlled facility, officials decided to turn the arrows on the developers and complicate their life to impossibility. But how, everything is also very thought out here. Interest-holders can be pointed out to the developer, they say that he alone is to blame, he is in prison, you yourself wanted this. Developers can also clarify the tightening of requirements and requisitions every year more and more new - all of them, interest holders are to blame, they require blood. At the same time, a small developer will leave the market, will not withstand the load, and a large one will again become even larger, despite his jail time in a five-star superior prison.
  Amidst all the noise, the insurance companies Baltstrakhovanie and Rinko somehow quietly lurked, whose services were imposed on equity holders of recent years as a life buoy. But in fact, insurance companies not only did not pay insurance policies, but also provided reliable protection to the interest holders from any assistance from the state, the order of the Ministry of Construction 560 clearly indicates - if there is insurance, you are not a deceived interest holder. It doesn’t matter that it, firstly, ended on the day the delay on the DDL began, secondly it was not paid at all, and thirdly, the insurance company generally pretended to be broke. Not all will be deceived.
  Not a feasible load of mortgages for an empty place and renting a house simultaneously with the birth of a child is very little like helping a young family and the state's interest in raising the birth rate. One of the interest holders openly announced his readiness to commit suicide because of intolerable living conditions.
  Interest holders of the Tsaritsyno residential complex demand that officials be called to account, through whose fault thousands of people were deceived. With the help of the federal construction financing program, the authorities will have the only chance to rehabilitate themselves in the eyes of thousands of their own citizens. It will not be necessary to look for who is to blame, you just need to decide what to do.

HANDLING

on the issue of NOT fulfilling the instructions of the President of the Russian Federation

for the protection of the rights of citizens - participants in shared construction

Participants in the construction of apartment buildings in Moscow EXPRESS CONFIDENCE   Deputy Mayor of Moscow in the Government of Moscow on urban development policy and construction Khusnullin Marat Shakirzyanovich and the Chairman of the Committee of the city of Moscow for ensuring the implementation of investment projects in construction and control in the field of shared construction Timofeev Konstantin Petrovich .

Khusnullin M. Sh. And Timofeev KP neglect the responsibilities assigned to them by the Mayor of Moscow, Sobyanin S. S., for the development and implementation of schedule plans (“road maps”) providing for the implementation of legislative, organizational and financial measures the protection of affected citizens included in the register of citizens whose funds were raised for the construction of apartment buildings and whose rights were violated, and containing mechanisms to solve the problems of these citizens, in accordance with instructions of the President of the Russian Federation No. 1520 of 03 a dense 2016.

Khusnullin M. Sh. And Timofeev K.P. formally reacted to this order, the mechanisms presented in the "road maps" do not solve the problems of participants in the construction of multi-apartment buildings, will not lead to the completion of the construction of facilities, and the receipt of paid housing by citizens.

“Road maps” are constantly being rewritten, the dates indicated in the plans are not respected, they include mechanisms that cannot be executed, which indicates incompetence of employees Committee of the city of Moscow on ensuring the implementation of investment projects in construction and control in the field of shared construction, which make up the schedules.

When making changes to the schedules, mechanisms are prescribed that were initially tried to avoid, which infringe on the rights of a large number of citizens, participants in shared construction and delay the implementation of projects for an indefinite time, in particular, bankruptcy of developers.

The negligence of officials is due to the absence of any responsibility for failure to fulfill the instructions of the President of the Russian Federation No. 1520 of August 3, 2016, no one is responsible for the failure to meet the deadlines for the commissioning of incomplete construction of apartment buildings.

Ignoring Khusnullin M. Sh. And Timofeev K.P. of fulfilling Presidential instructions No. 1520 of August 3, 2016 leads to increasing social tension, distrust of the Mayor of Moscow, Sobyanin S.S., and a downgrade as the main candidate for the post of Mayor of Moscow. This is completely unacceptable in the light of the upcoming Mayor elections in Moscow in September 2018.

In connection with the foregoing, we require:

  1. Konstantin Petrovich Timofeev, dismissed from his posts the Deputy Mayor of Moscow in the Government of Moscow on urban planning policy and construction, Khusnullin Marat Shakirzyanovich and the Chairman of the Committee of the city of Moscow on ensuring the implementation of investment projects in construction and control in the field of shared construction.
  2. Take personal control of the execution of instructions of the President of the Russian Federation No. 1520 of August 3, 2016 on the development and implementation of schedule plans (“road maps”), providing for the implementation of legislative, organizational and financial measures to protect affected citizens included in the register of citizens whose money funds raised for the construction of an apartment building and whose rights have been violated, and containing mechanisms to solve the problems of these citizens.

_______________________________ / _______________________________

On January 26, a round table was held in the State Duma on the topic: "The problem of defrauded equity holders: measures to restore the rule of law, progress in fulfilling the instructions of the President of the Russian Federation." The event was attended by coordinators of the Public Movement of Russian Co-investors from 27 regions of the country. The meeting was organized by the Communist Party faction in the State Duma, and its moderator was State Duma deputy Valery Rashkin.

The personal answer to the citizens was kept by the governor of the Kirov region Igor Vasiliev, deputy governors of the Vologda and Chelyabinsk regions Vitaly Tushinov and Sergey Shal, heads of control divisions, including state construction supervision. A number of regional leaders, such as Volgograd, Leningrad, Saratov, Tomsk, Lipetsk, Yaroslavl, Penza and Amur regions, Perm and Krasnoyarsk Territories, defiantly ignored communication with their real estate investors. However, at the same time, in these regions, the authorities showed that they had “received a signal” by quickly organizing “local” public hearings and meetings of working groups with the participation of deceived citizens.

Comfortable armchairs at the round table were occupied by representatives of AHML, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Investigative Committee, the Federal Service for Financial Monitoring, the Ministry of Economic Development, Rosreestr, the Federal Bailiff Service and the Federal Property Management Agency. True, many of them preferred to remain silent and began to speak only after the moderator of the meeting Valery Rashkin “forced” them into a dialogue. After the presentation of each of the regional coordinators, officials spoke. It was at these moments, under the transcript, that they gave generous promises to take measures to solve the problem of equity holders in their region or region.

The main requirement of the meeting participants was the adoption of a federal target program to complete the construction of all 935 long-term construction projects of the country by the end of 2019. Sources of its financing in this case can be both budgetary and extrabudgetary. How and at whose expense their question will be “closed” is not so important for affected citizens. The main thing is to find an effective solution.

Local officials spoke out in support of the federal approach proposed by equity holders to solve the problem in the field of shared construction, and thereby became open opponents to the point of view held by Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov. Recall that on March 31, 2017, at a meeting of the board of the Ministry of Construction of the Russian Federation, the Deputy Prime Minister said that the federal center has no funds to resolve the accumulated problems, and that the regional authorities directly contacting the developers and issuing construction permits should be responsible for the deceived equity holders of past years. “If they allow those who deceive, then something is unclean there,” said Shuvalov.

Speaking at the round table, Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Omsk Region Sergey Frolov frankly stated that “without federal funding, we will not finish building the house. We, the regions, will not raise this money. Let's put three billion in the budget in the second half of the year, and six more next year. And the topic is closed. ”

We must clearly and clearly say: there are 214 federal laws. So make it work. Interest holders suffered only due to the fact that this law does not work. This is already understandable as twice two four. For 14 years, people have been thrown around the country unmeasured. Thank God everyone is alive from those who ruled and adopted this law. Have you adopted the law? Does not work? So, punish the one who adopted and signed this law. Make those amendments that will work, and interest holders will cease to be a bargaining chip in political games. It’s incorrect to say that the region is to blame. The law was adopted at the federal level. And you don’t need to look for a “scapegoat” in the face of the municipality or region, - this position was indicated by Ivan Bomberger, deputy head of the Sochi administration.

An important issue discussed at the event was the implementation by regional regulatory bodies of schedule schedules (“road maps”), which prescribe the completion mechanism for each of the problematic construction projects. Unfortunately, even for those long-term construction projects for which such “road maps” have been drawn up, their content is often of a formal nature. As a rule, there are no clear and transparent decisions in them, and they make schedules just to report to the federal ministry. According to the Public Movement of Co-investors of Russia, 56% of the frozen construction sites in the country, in principle, do not have “road maps”, and about a third of the objects did not even receive problem status. And if so, then no solutions need to be found on them. 45% of the developed schedules regularly break down the deadlines for the implementation of the activities laid down in them. It has come to anecdotal cases, when, for example, officials from Adygea indicate in the schedules as the final result of their work not the acquisition of apartments by citizens, but "the removal of social tension." It turns out why this huge army of leaders exists ... They themselves are not interested in human problems.

Interest-holders from the Vologda Oblast Alexey Timofeev used a good image when talking about schedules, calling the “road map” a sweet pill for an interest-holder and a formal reply for Moscow.

A roadmap can be effectively drawn up so that it works, only if the developer or investor has the intention to complete this object. We now have a large number of criminal cases brought against developers who have committed crimes. And some construction projects stopped because the developer simply “closed”. In these cases, it is impossible for an investor to enter an object within the framework of the current legislation, ”said Pavel Koshkin, deputy head of the construction supervision department of the administration of the Krasnodar Territory.

Moreover, an official from Krasnodar openly spoke out in favor of using the funds of the compensation fund to solve the problems of current facilities. With this statement, he thwarted the applause of the audience. Pavel Koshkin’s argument was as follows: now the fund’s money has been frozen for at least the next two years, since before this time a problematic situation with new facilities is simply impossible. And people need help now.

There are issues with the provision in several regions of compensatory land plots. Pavel Koshkin noted that the norms of Federal Law 214 contradict the norms of the law on investment activity. This is a serious obstacle. At the same time, many representatives of the regional authorities complained in their speeches that there were no liquidated compensation plots in their territories and regions. AHML often resists giving away tidbits of land. This was paid attention, including, and interest holders of Kaliningrad. The right site is right at the fence of the construction site, but the “golden” land is located along the federal highway. The department of the Plutnik does not want to part with it.

None of the long-term construction of the country has a completed construction and financial expertise. Neither the federal, nor even the regional authorities know the exact amount necessary to “close” the problem of deceived equity holders once and for all.

The concept of "preference" for players in the construction market is not transparent. Entering frozen facilities, sanatorium developers do not know what they will eventually receive and whether the bureaucratic brothers suddenly change the informal rules of the game.

It is thought that it is important to determine at the legislative level the principle of the formation of “road maps” for problematic objects, the mechanism for their control and the procedure for responsibility of officials. Initiative groups of interest holders should be involved in the preparation of schedules. But the control of execution must be entrusted to the bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the prosecutor's office. When an official understands that he is being supervised by the prosecutor and, if something happens, will bring him to justice, the degree of his consciousness will obviously increase.

Evgeni Kurbalov, a co-owner of the New Scandinavia LCD from St. Petersburg, bluntly stated that “roadmaps” exist only for the report of regional authorities to the federal authorities. In the city, the connection between representatives of initiative groups and officials has been lost. It is necessary to develop a mechanism for local managers to report to equity holders.

According to Yulia Petrukhina, coordinator of the Public Movement of Russian Co-investors in the Moscow Region, “today there is some reluctance among law enforcement agencies to disclose criminal schemes. The deadlines for investigating criminal cases are constantly being drawn out. This was confirmed by 47% of representatives of 416 objects surveyed. Interest holders in their statements write about affiliate campaigns of the developer, about the real beneficiaries, about the withdrawal of funds and deliberate bankruptcy. 60% of long-term construction projects are in bankruptcy. However, the deadlines for crimes in the field of shared construction have been reduced to five years. ”

The injured participant in the construction of the Pskov region, Irina Kirillova, spoke about the widespread in the region scheme for buying housing not from the developer, but from the contractor. In this scheme, the largest developer of the Pskov region LUG Group, owned by Yan Luzin, the former head of the Pskov administration, now a deputy of the regional assembly, constantly flashes. His father is an ex-FSB officer. “Suddenly” the businessman terminated the contract with the contractor, and people lost their apartments. Citizens applied at the local level to all authorities, but did not receive support. Only access to the federal level gave a “magic kick” to regional authorities. With the mediation of Governor Andrei Turchak at that time, a tripartite agreement was concluded between the administration of the Pskov Region, the developer and contractor, which determined the mechanism for breaking the deadlock. However, after Turchak’s move to Moscow, all agreements were canceled. The situation is critical. The criminal case is actually frozen. People are afraid to take this problem out of the region.

Paradoxical were the speeches of some representatives of the authorities. So, the governor of the Kirov region, Igor Vasiliev, suddenly started talking about the fact that “interaction with interest holders should be a two-way street” and called them to a dialogue. It is significant that for some reason he did not begin to listen to the performance of interest holders in his area and left the meeting an hour after it began. Here is a "two-way traffic" turned out. It is also curious that Igor Vasiliev appeared in the State Duma immediately after the mass appeals of injured citizens to the regional government with an expression of distrust of the head of the region. Speaking in his speech only of 192 deceived equity holders, the governor for some reason “forgot” that in the territory of the Kirov region there were already fifty problems. Only eight are officially recognized as such. However, this is not surprising: the real numbers for the number of affected equity holders and the number of frozen construction sites in each of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation are, as a rule, underestimated from two to 10 times.

We must not wait for mercy. We have the right to demand, not ask. And we also should not praise regional authorities for fulfilling their direct duties, ”said Yana Vashanova, a lender of the Raduzhny residential complex from the Leningrad Region, in her speech.

Deputy Minister of Construction and Housing and Public Utilities of the Russian Federation Nikita Stasishin, who promised to be at the event, “unexpectedly” and “on time” flew to Izhevsk to meet with Presidential Envoy to the Volga Federal District Mikhail Babich. There was no answer to the question whether he could entrust the presence of the subordinates to his subordinates, for example, the head of the Housing Policy Department, Olga Kornienko. Apparently, direct and honest conversation with interest holders, representing a third of the country's regions, officials of the relevant ministry simply do not need. Isn’t it time for these people to think about their compliance with their position?

For equity holders, it is obvious that the current leadership of the Ministry of Construction is simply engaged in self-PR, creating raw and incomplete “information systems” and cutting ribbons in front of long-built houses, but not at the same time offering truly effective and ready-made solutions in the field of shared construction. As you know, "the fish rots from the head." Maybe it makes sense to propose to the country's leadership a list of candidates for the post of head of the relevant ministry? Obviously, professionals must enter it who are able to solve long-standing social problems in the construction field.

The head of the working group of the State Duma to solve the problems of the participants in the shared construction of the deputy from United Russia Nikolai Nikolaev also did not have time to talk with almost a hundred leaders of initiative groups of interest holders from all over the country. He sent a “polite refusal” to the organizers, in which he actively praised himself and his achievements. As they say, you will not praise yourself ...

According to the apt remark of Yulia Petrukhina, “the entire state machine is aimed at creating the illusion of work. Instead of discussing the timing of the transfer of keys to deceived equity holders, they report to the President how many road maps have been prepared and how many objects have been mapped. But they don’t report how many objects do not have a problem status, how many deadlines on road maps are broken. ”

The resolution adopted at the end of the round table contains a number of fundamental requirements, including

  • determine the financial responsibility of the Russian Federation as a state to participants in shared construction in the form of state financing (co-financing) of sanatorium developers.
  • Introduce a workable mechanism for the rehabilitation of construction campaigns that for one reason or another failed to fulfill their obligations to citizens by analogy with the rehabilitation mechanism widely used in the banking sector.
  • As a component of such a scheme, it is proposed to consider the creation of a specialized (private) -state developer, one of the functions of which will be the completion of the construction of problem objects on the market at the expense of budget and extra-budgetary funds.
  • Regional executive bodies must ensure the creation of a final list (pool) of developers, sanatoriums, whose participants will commit themselves to complete the problematic facilities in each region of the country.
