Buying a land plot is a responsible business. You should be aware that the seller or intermediary agency interested in selling as soon as possible may not give you all the information about him. Therefore, you should check all the documents provided for the site, so as not to buy a "pig in a poke".
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, the seller must have a legal title to this land plot. It is confirmed by the corresponding Certificate of the established state sample with a holographic sticker. In the case when a land plot is sold without this document, albeit cheaper, it is better to refuse such a purchase so as not to buy land that was owned by self-seizure rights, that is, illegally. Subsequently, it will be problematic to register such a land plot in its ownership, and, perhaps, it will not be possible to do this.
Step 2
If his authorized representative acts on behalf of the seller, check that the power of attorney of the established form has been certified by a notary. Check the data specified in it with the data of the intermediary's passport.
Step 3
In the certificate of state registration of ownership of land, as well as in the cadastral or land survey plan, which are the basis for registration in the cadastral chamber, there must be information about the category of land on which this site is located. In the event that you want to build an individual residential building on it, it is better if this category is "for individual housing construction." In this case, you can count on the municipal authorities to ensure the construction and maintenance of roads, as well as main engineering networks. If this is agricultural land, for gardening or summer cottages, the laying of roads and communications will be carried out by gardeners and summer residents. Plots located on the lands of the forest fund cannot be sold - they can only be rented.
Step 4
Check that the cadastral number must be indicated in the certificate, cadastral and landline plans. This is a guarantee that the site is uniquely identified and has a single owner. If the number is not assigned, it may turn out that this piece of land has another owner, and perhaps not even one - the plot has been sold several times. Please note that the package of documents contains an extract from the Unified State Register of Rights to Real Estate and Transactions with It. This is also a confirmation that the site is registered in the registers only once.
Step 5
If your seller is married or married, the package of documents for the plot must include the written consent of his or her spouse to sell the plot. If the seller is a minor citizen, there must be a written consent to the sale of the plot from the guardianship and guardianship authorities.
