On June 2, the settlement of the largest microdistrict for military personnel in Moscow will begin

On June 2, the settlement of the next microdistrict for military personnel will begin, located in the capital's Khovrino district (Northern Administrative District) on Levoberezhnaya Street, 4, which will become the fourth housing estate in Moscow built for military waiting lists since 2012.

This is the largest residential development within the boundaries of Moscow in the entire history of housing for military personnel, which consists of 23 high-rise buildings with a total capacity of 5,856 apartments.

Housing in the new microdistrict will be provided to families of active and retired military personnel who have chosen Moscow as their permanent place of residence. Among the new settlers are representatives of all types and branches of the military - pilots, sailors, astronauts, rocket scientists, engineers, etc.

The Housing Department of the Russian Ministry of Defense prioritized the distribution of housing in the new microdistrict to large families, widows of military personnel and “long-term” military waitlists.

The first new residents of the area on Levoberezhnaya Street will be more than 400 military families who received housing in buildings No. 10 (144 apartments) and No. 14 (282 apartments). The courtyards have been landscaped, the roadway has been paved, and pedestrian paths have been laid with special tiles. The installation of children's and sports grounds has been completed, and small architectural forms have been installed.

The remaining houses will be occupied as soon as they are ready. The completion of housing, connection of the microdistrict to utility networks and registration of property rights are carried out by specialists of the Main Directorate for Troops Arrangement, a subordinate company of the Russian Ministry of Defense.

A customer service point has been opened for residents, providing consulting and reference services on issues related to registration of ownership of apartments and concluding contracts for the provision of utility services.

Near the new microdistrict there is the Khimki Forest Park and a convenient interchange on the Moscow Ring Road, as well as the Dynamo Sports Palace, the CSKA equestrian center, an ice palace, social and healthcare institutions, large shops and cultural and entertainment centers. It is planned to open the Khovrino metro station not far from the residential development zone.

For reference:

The construction of residential microdistricts for military personnel located within the borders of Moscow is under the control of First Deputy Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation Ruslan Tsalikov. In mid-May this year. Based on the results of the latest inspection of the construction readiness of new buildings in the capital, Ruslan Tsalikov decided to begin settling two microdistricts on the street. Polina Osipenko (Begovaya metro station) and on the street. Levoberezhnaya (Rechnoy Vokzal metro station).

Also, based on the results of the inspection, the first deputy head of the military department instructed the builders to significantly increase the number of workers and construction equipment, quickly resolve a number of issues related to connecting residential buildings to city utility networks, and also speed up the processes of registering ownership and transferring finished new buildings into operation to management companies.

Since 2008, military personnel have not been provided with apartments in the capital, since the Russian Ministry of Defense has not been building housing for these purposes. The situation changed at the end of 2012, when it was decided to build 4 microdistricts for military personnel with 16 thousand apartments in Moscow (near the Yugo-Zapadnaya, Rechnoy Vokzal and Begovaya metro stations, as well as in the Molzhaninovsky district of Moscow). All housing is rented fully furnished, with plumbing fixtures and stoves installed; schools, kindergartens, shops, and clinics are being built in the neighborhoods. New housing for military personnel was built in areas with developed transport and social infrastructure, close to large shopping centers, metro stations, schools, kindergartens and medical organizations.

In the summer of 2015, a microdistrict for military personnel with 2,300 apartments, located in Mytishchi near Moscow, was inhabited. In October-December 2015, the distribution of 1,796 apartments in the microdistrict on the street was fully completed. Bolshaya Ochakovskaya. On May 24, 2016, the settlement of the microdistrict near the Begovaya metro station began. Currently, the Housing Department of the Russian Ministry of Defense continues to occupy 4,731 apartments on the street. Sinyavinskaya in the Molzhaninovsky district of Moscow.

Information on the implementation of these activities is regularly published on the website of the Russian Ministry of Defense.

In Moscow, the “housing issue” for military personnel, both in Soviet times and in modern times, has always been difficult to resolve. For example, at the turn of the 90s. There was an unspoken order - officers who do not have housing in the capital should not be transferred to Moscow for service. And today, out of a 30,000-strong queue for housing throughout the country, a third of military personnel should receive apartments in Moscow.

Currently, the waiting list for permanent housing in Moscow is 10.7 thousand people. To date, more than 3.4 thousand military people on the waiting list have already acquired Moscow registration. After all four microdistricts are put into operation, the queue for housing in the capital will disappear.

In total, from 2012 to the present day, more than 160 thousand military families have received permanent housing from the Russian Ministry of Defense. In 2015 alone, 14 thousand families celebrated housewarming (6.9 thousand received a housing subsidy, 7.1 thousand preferred apartments in kind).

This year, 6.1 thousand military families have already found a roof over their heads (3.2 thousand received housing subsidies, 2.9 thousand were provided with apartments in kind).

Over the past three years, the military department has completely solved the housing problem in cities such as Tula, Kaluga, Orel, Vladimir, St. Petersburg, Rostov-on-Don, Mytishchi, Podolsk, Voronezh, Krasnodar, Novorossiysk, Ryazan, Kursk, Sochi, Stavropol, Anapa, Pskov, Saratov.

The Law “On the Status of Military Personnel” provides for contract soldiers with their own housing free of charge. For this reason, until recently, the military department erected apartment buildings in many large cities of Russia. Housing is provided on a first-come, first-served basis, with the date of registration being the date of submission of documents. Until recently, the problem of queues for apartments was very acute in the country, since the pace of construction noticeably lagged behind the pace of officers being transferred to the reserve. In a number of military units, queues have been dragging on for decades.

2014 brought a radical change in the way apartments are provided to military personnel - the social rental agreement is gradually losing relevance. The government abandons the traditional practice when it was built on the basis of a queue. It is expected that starting from 2015, the old system will be completely replaced by one-time cash payments, and the provision of apartments for military personnel according to the old queues will be resolved by the end of 2014. Because of this, many people are concerned about the question: where is housing for the military being built? And what can the Ministry of Defense offer to those on the waiting list for this period - when will they give apartments to the military?

Those who are not provided with the required living space are paid by the military department on the basis of a lease agreement.

Priority regions for housing construction

Today it is most actively produced in the capital regions. Modern residential complexes are being built in the Moscow region and the outskirts of St. Petersburg, the construction of which is carried out by the largest developers. Where is housing for military personnel being built in Moscow and how affordable is an apartment for military personnel in one of the capitals?

  • Apartments for military personnel in Moscow are distributed in Molzhaninovo. The buildings were built according to standards adopted back in the USSR. The area of ​​a three-room apartment here will be 72 square meters, there will be no narrow corridors, and the kitchens will be quite spacious.

In Molzhaninovo, houses are spaced quite widely and are provided with a spacious yard space. One of the serious problems associated with houses in this area is the almost complete lack of infrastructure. A paradoxical situation is created: the houses were built in accordance with the standards, but the military department should not be involved in the construction of schools, kindergartens and clinics. At the same time, more and more military personnel are refusing the housing provided. At the same time, one can only guess when they will provide military personnel with apartments in microdistricts with complete social infrastructure.

  • On Bolshaya Ochakovskaya street a new building has also been erected where the military receives apartments. The house has modern infrastructure, the apartments have fully completed finishing work.
  • Another option is apartments on Levoberezhnaya street. Here the buildings are located almost end to end, so this area does not suit many people. usually leads to the fact that it is replaced by a cash payment, so the military will be forced to independently look for a suitable option. Builders should build more than 5 thousand apartments on Levoberezhnaya Street in the coming year.
  • Another priority area is the Leningrad region and the suburbs of St. Petersburg. In the northern capital, more than 11 thousand apartments should be put into operation next year. Enjoys special advantage Pushkinsky district, where new high-rise complexes are being steadily built near the village of Shushary.

Houses where military personnel are given housing are mainly built using monolithic brick technology, so they are guaranteed a long life and quick occupancy. One of the large complexes - "House on Shkolnaya". This is a high-rise 25-storey building, from which the metro station can be reached in just 10 minutes.

  • Near the city of Pushkin in the same area, it is now being built at a rapid pace residential complex "Slavyanka". In fact, the first two blocks were built in just one year, and work is now underway on interior decoration and occupancy.

The complex is popular: residential space in it can be purchased both through and with the help of NIS; some of the houses were originally built as buildings for military personnel.

The main problem of the region is that infrastructure facilities are not built as quickly as residential buildings, which causes problems with ensuring the life of the microdistrict. But these are only temporary difficulties, and over time “Slavyanka” will be able to solve the housing problems of hundreds of families.

The most pressing and popular topic, primarily due to the large number of people who want to choose the capital for permanent residence.

Apartments for military personnel in Russian regions

Many people are now concerned about the question: where are they providing apartments for military personnel in the provinces? Here, housing construction has also noticeably intensified, as the Government plans to get rid of queues for housing as quickly as possible.

For example, this is a rather pressing issue, and at the very end of 2013 the construction of the Suvorovsky residential complex in Rostov-on-Don was completed.

These are 25 high-rise apartment buildings, built specifically to provide apartments for the families of officers. First of all, they are designed for military personnel of the Southern District, but other officers will also be able to receive housing here.

And the long-awaited new building “Volgar” should decide.

It was planned in the city at the intersection of Belomorskaya and Borovaya streets.

Over the next year, 1,700 apartments will be built in Vladivostok, 1,400 in Novosibirsk, 435 in Krasnoyarsk, and 1,600 are planned.

All these houses will be built with the aim of eliminating problems with the housing queue as quickly as possible. The question of where to build housing for the military also worries residents of other regions, but the ministry promises to build apartment buildings in all major cities.

Alternative ways to solve the housing problem

Very soon the question is: “Where is housing for military personnel?” - will become irrelevant, since it is being phased out in its finished form and the Government is switching to providing housing with cash payments. For 2014, there are three alternative solutions.

The housing subsidy program for military personnel adopted by the Russian government is gaining momentum. This is evidenced by the recent statement of Sergei Pirogov, head of the Housing Department of the Moscow Region. According to the official, the housing issue, which is always relevant for people in uniform, will be resolved positively in 2015, and by 2023 the issue of the lack of square meters in the department under his control will cease to be relevant at all. Considering the fact that the Ministry of Defense has set a course for a radical transformation of housing provision algorithms, such bold plans are quite feasible.

The emphasis on replacing natural obligations with very tangible financial assistance is, of course, justified. Over the past two years alone, waiting lists have decreased by almost 2.3 times. There has never been such a rate of distribution of apartments among the military in modern Russia...

Military mortgage as an alternative scheme for monetizing benefits

For many years, high prices in new buildings in the Mother See did not allow even senior officers to think about their own roof over their heads, not to mention non-commissioned officers and ordinary defenders of the fatherland.

And here it is, the long-awaited and pleasant news for servicemen - the unspoken ban on the allocation of apartments in the capital has been lifted. Moreover, a completely new approach to solving a pressing problem has been proposed. Anyone can find out where military housing will be provided in Moscow (and not only) by calling the hotline of the Russian Ministry of Defense (or by contacting directly authorized representatives of regional military administration bodies).

The whole point of the mortgage lies in the fact that the state pays the military man’s debt to the bank, but at the same time imposes a condition on the borrower: if he leaves service before the loan is repaid, he will be forced to return the entire amount plus interest to the budget.

Dreams come true: people in uniform become Muscovites

The country's leaders understand perfectly well that providing housing for the military is an extremely important task. An officer confident in the future is the foundation of a combat-ready army. And although breaking the old stagnant system was risky, the leadership of the Ministry of Defense consciously took this step.

The result, as they say, is obvious: if a couple of years ago lieutenants and colonels were burdened by the thought of whether they would even be given the square meters required by law, then since last summer the question lies on a slightly different plane: where will the military be given housing?

In Moscow, the distribution of apartments among those on the waiting list in the so-called Levoberezhny microdistrict is already in full swing. A fundamentally new approach has been implemented here: a serviceman (or retiree), who is also a potential owner, evaluates the apartment under construction in advance, and only then, if there are no comments, the process of paperwork begins.

Mini-city from scratch, or Everything for the military

Thanks to the SU-155 group of companies, the north-west of Moscow (Khovrino district) has been transformed beyond recognition in just two years. We are talking about an entire microdistrict from scratch: more than twenty residential buildings with appropriate municipal registration and the appropriate level of improvement of the surrounding area, more than 4.7 thousand new apartments with a total area of ​​​​about half a million square meters...

Despite the fact that modern and comfortable housing for the military on Levoberezhnaya Street was built at a record pace, the quality of the work can be envied by many elite new buildings. Without exception, all houses are connected to utilities, apartments are equipped with plumbing and electric stoves, and the interior decoration is pleasing to the eye.

Particular emphasis is placed on the functionality of buildings and their energy optimization: automatic systems record water and heat consumption and constantly monitor the condition of intra-house networks.

Advantages of housing on Levoberezhnaya, or the Secret of houses of the I-155 series

If you have a choice of offering military housing on the street, it will certainly be beyond competition. Yes, at first there were complaints about poor transport links. But the project, brought to life by the SU-155 group of companies, neutralized all the shortcomings of the remote Khovrino. Add to this the high sound and thermal insulation of apartments, ramps on stairwells, business class elevators - why not new buildings in the capital Molzhaninov? Moreover, the price per square meter is significantly lower than the elite one.

The year is 2015: military waiting lists are getting shorter...

According to Igor Lysenko, Pirogov’s first deputy, this year more than 22 thousand servicemen will become owners of residential real estate. These people had the exclusive right to wait for their home ministry to issue warrants for apartments. However, they chose a different path - they took advantage of the housing subsidy program.

The media has already leaked information several times that due to the crisis, funding for the project could be cut from 40 to 30 billion rubles. But in any case, the funds received from the state should be enough to buy a good apartment in the vast majority of regions.

If we talk about where they will provide housing for the military in Moscow under this program, then this is still the same Levoberezhnaya Street - the new “small Motherland” of those on the waiting list. Of course, buy for 8.6 million rubles. It’s unlikely that you’ll get a three-room apartment here, so the main priority is two-room apartments and one-room apartments. However, we should not forget about the nearest Moscow region - for the specified amount it can please you with non-standard options. Moreover, receiving a subsidy does not impose any geographical obligations regarding the place of purchase of a house/apartment.

Today's realities: The Ministry of Defense is ceasing to be a builder

Budget funds for the construction of departmental housing for the military in 2016-2017. not provided. The Ministry of Defense no longer wants to play the role of foreman, and, therefore, the housing subsidy is the main and only mechanism by which housing will be distributed in the future. Until the end of this year, the military in Moscow will be offered the remainder, that is, everything that the department currently has (due to bureaucratic delays, some of the apartments did not find their rightful owners in 2014). We are primarily talking about new buildings on Sinyavinskaya Street. There are not very many apartments there, and the choice, as Pirogov said, is small. But there simply aren’t and won’t be any more apartments in the capital’s departmental housing stock.

for housing. Why is this beneficial?

The old and ineffective scheme for providing military personnel with housing has long exhausted itself. A clear confirmation of this is the thousands of people on the waiting list who have been knocking on the thresholds of high offices for years in search of justice. Therefore, the initiative of the Ministry of Defense, aimed at moving away as much as possible from the targeted construction of square meters and replacing “in-kind rent” with financial assistance, looks natural.

In military terms, this is essentially the same bank loan. With the only caveat that the funds received must be used to purchase a house/apartment or to build housing on their own.

The program is new for Russia, and therefore it is too early to draw any conclusions about the prospects in terms of the actual return on its implementation. In any case, a number of positive points can already be noted:

  • the emergence of real prospects for young military personnel;
  • free choice of place of residence;
  • reducing the waiting time for new housing;
  • motivating the younger generation to serve in the army.

Housing subsidy for military personnel: getting to the root

Military mortgage housing is a program aimed at attracting the banking sector.

The lion's share of the funds (up to 80%) required to take ownership of a house or apartment is allocated from the federal budget. The buyer pays only part of the cost of the property (usually about 20%).

Additional factors influence the amount of the subsidy. In particular, the regional location of real estate, the number of family members, the presence/absence of awards and merits, and so on. In addition, the legislator identified a category of privileged applicants for housing subsidies. It included holders of colonel ranks and the entire general staff (a special increasing coefficient applies to them).

Providing housing to military personnel: basic subsidy conditions

According to the official doctrine, a military housing subsidy is provided to everyone without exception, that is, to junior, senior and senior officers. But its size is individual in nature and is calculated on the basis of basic parameters: the number of dependents in the family of a serviceman, his length of service, the presence/absence of the right to another suitable area for living. These and some other criteria determine the amount, which, in turn, gives a final idea of ​​the amount of the subsidy due. A special calculator has been posted on the Ministry of Defense website to simplify the procedure for calculating monetary compensation.

Thus, an average family of 4 people has the right to claim 4.5 million rubles, provided that the serviceman’s length of service ranges from 10-15 years. Service from 15 to 20 years automatically raises the bar to 6.7 million rubles; Military experience of 25 years or more guarantees receipt of 8.2 million rubles. The maximum possible amount provided as compensation for military housing is 13.5 million rubles.

Managers and their fate

In army circles, managers are people who de facto no longer have anything to do with the armed forces, but who are de jure among the valiant defenders of the Fatherland. While waiting for an answer to the question of where the military would be provided with housing in Moscow, these individuals repeatedly refused offers to provide them with real estate in other regions of the country. And at the same time they received a monthly salary. Until recently, it was impossible to dismiss such “warriors” without providing an apartment. Now, at the initiative of the president, changes have been made to the law. Managers are faced with a choice: either they agree to an apartment/subsidy, or go into retirement upon dismissal.

Increasing demand for real estate as a response to subsidized waiting lists

The practical implementation of new forms of providing military personnel with a roof over their heads, including military mortgages, made it possible to satisfy 85-95% of the requests of those on the waiting list in Tula, Kaluga, Krasnodar and the Northern capital.

But the Moscow region cannot yet boast of such indicators. Blame it all on the hype. Statistics from the Housing Department indicate that more than 40% of servicemen choose the mother of Russian cities.

The market appetites of the Mother See are sometimes several times higher than the amount by which compensation for housing is measured. It would seem that the military should have thought about it. But no, the thirst to live in a city with the most developed infrastructure takes its toll. Hence the boomerang effect: the higher the demand, the higher the price of the product, that is, of real estate...

MOSCOW, March 25 - RIA Novosti, Anton Razmakhnin. Representatives of the Main Directorate for Troop Arrangement (GUOV) of the Ministry of Defense monitored the progress of construction of apartments for military personnel in the north of Moscow, together with future residents of new buildings. Read about how the problem of housing for military personnel in the capital is being solved in the RIA Novosti material.

The houses under construction for military personnel on Levoberezhnaya Street, in the metropolitan district of the same name, were visited by Deputy Minister of Defense of Russia Timur Ivanov and the head of the housing department of the ministry Sergei Pirogov. Together with them, future residents of the houses and members of their families visited the new buildings. They got the opportunity to inspect their future apartments.

“For six years now we have not only been waiting for our apartment, but we know the exact address and its number,” Anatoly, one of the future residents of building 2, told RIA Novosti. “I would really like to move in this year.”

The quarter for military personnel on Levoberezhnaya Street is one of four new buildings that the SU-155 group of companies began building for the Ministry of Defense in 2011. The Housing Department (HOD) of the RF Ministry of Defense has preliminarily distributed apartments among thousands of officers. But, despite the full financing of the construction of the above facilities from the Main Directorate for the Arrangement of Troops, SU-155 did not fulfill its obligations. By the beginning of 2015, construction was stopped. And only a year later it was possible to resume completion and finishing - without a third-party general contractor.

Big rework

“We have clear confidence that this year we will occupy all the houses,” Deputy Minister of Defense of Russia Timur Ivanov said in an interview with RIA Novosti. “All decisions related to the financing of this construction have been made - the mechanism for obtaining funds was approved with the participation of the President of the Russian Federation The first tranche of funds has already been received, the work has begun, and every month the builders will be ready to show future residents what is happening at the construction site and in their apartments. Today, one of the buildings is more ready, I think that we will announce it. moving in on April 3. And the military personnel will finally be able to move into their own housing."

Work on the huge construction site is really in full swing. 430 people work here, almost 200 of them are employees of the Main Directorate of Troop Development, the rest are subcontractors and representatives of utility services. The old heating main is being replaced and a new one is being laid in the area, which will provide heat supply according to a permanent scheme for five buildings. At the same time, industrial climbers seal the interpanel seams. Individual heating units of houses are being restored. The elevator system is being adjusted and inspected.

"Why should heating networks be replaced?" — asks one of the future residents, Alexey Zhmurov. It turns out that the previous general contractor did not bother to inspect the work performed by the technical supervision services. In addition, in 2014 and 2015, some of the pipes were filled with water in the winter - now no one can vouch for the strength of the seams. As a result, in order to prevent accidents in the future, it was decided to do everything again.

Up the stairs to happiness

Sergei Petrov, his wife and adult daughter enter the entrance of their 5th building. The elevators are not working yet, and their apartment is on the 16th floor. But the ascent is quite fun, with jokes: “Okay, but the descent will be fast!”

“I’ve been on the waiting list for 20 years, since my transfer to service in Moscow,” says Petrov. “I’ve known my apartment number since 2012. For now we’re renting an apartment, but what else is left?”

On the 16th floor - past the currently inactive elevator hall - left and left again. A spacious two-room apartment with a large kitchen and a luxurious living room overlooking the bay window. The walls and ceiling are covered with wallpaper - modest, but fresh. The whole family stands at the huge bay window and falls silent. Just inhaling the air of a new apartment.

“All apartments correspond to the so-called “service housing passport,” explains Alexey Poskotinov, head of the construction department of the Main Directorate for the Arrangement of Troops of the Russian Ministry of Defense, to the future owners. “So if you don’t like something in terms of wallpaper, you’ll forgive me...”

“What about wallpaper, we’ll choose the wallpaper ourselves!” Olga, Sergei Petrov’s wife, says cheerfully. “Give us, most importantly, our walls!”

Military builders plan to complete work on building 5, as well as on neighboring buildings 2, 6, 9 and 22, by June 1 of this year, said Alexey Poskotinov. Then the turn of the second-stage buildings will come - all the released employees will be thrown into them. At the same time, landscaping will be carried out, and the city will be engaged in the construction of a kindergarten and school: the Ministry of Defense has transferred the corresponding plots of land to municipal ownership for this purpose.

In addition to the block on Levoberezhnaya Street, which will have 5,856 apartments, a block on Khoroshevskoye Shosse is also being prepared for delivery (there are 12 buildings and 3,648 apartments). And two residential areas on Bolshaya Ochakovskaya and Sinyavinskaya streets have already been commissioned and are being occupied. In total, in these four areas, which were started by a private contractor and completed by the Ministry of Defense, there are more than 16 thousand apartments for Moscow officers.
