Registration of Unfinished Construction

Registration of Unfinished Construction

Registration of unfinished construction is a procedure that legally recognizes a building under construction and allows obtaining property rights to it. Such an object can be included in legal circulation and used as collateral, sold, inherited, and more.

What Is Unfinished Construction?

Unfinished construction refers to a partially built structure that has not yet been commissioned. According to DSTU-N B A.2.2-10:2012, construction is considered unfinished if it includes at least some key structural elements but does not meet the requirements for commissioning as outlined in DBN B.2.2-15-2005.

Why Register an Unfinished Building?

Registering rights to an unfinished building allows you to:

• avoid risks when selling, gifting, or inheriting the property;

• use the object as collateral;

• avoid penalties for unauthorized construction;

• protect the developer’s interests in court;

• obtain a permit to continue or complete the construction.

Procedure

1. Collecting technical documentation:

   • project documentation;

   • building permit (if available);
