Reasons to recognize a house as unfit for habitation
Rights of Residents
After housing is recognized as unsafe and subject to resettlement and demolition, residents have the right to receive in return similar housing, equivalent in size and amenities. Read about the provision of housing to replace emergency housing in the article https://realtyinfo.online/5125-usloviya-poryadok-pereseleniya-lyudei-iz-avariinogo-zhilya-v-year-godu.
According to paragraph 33 of the Regulations approved by the said resolution, recognition of housing as unfit for habitation is feasible if:
- the house cannot be restored after an explosion, fire, or natural disaster;
- the building is at risk of destruction in the event of a man-made accident, the probability of which is high due to the increasing frequency of natural disasters;
- the house is located in an area with a high risk of avalanches, mudflows, landslides, and floods;
- the foundation or structural elements of the building are deformed;
- the house is located next to a source of noise exceeding the permissible limit of 55 decibels;
- there is a power line or structure for transmitting alternating current close to the house;
- in a specially designated area next to the building, waste chutes are washed and cleaned;
- the house does not meet hygienic requirements and sanitary and epidemiological standards.
Housing with a degree of wear of at least 70% for stone houses or 65% for structures made of wood or local materials, as well as attics, is also considered unsuitable.
A building is considered subject to demolition if it is technically impossible or economically infeasible to solve the problem under the law on major repairs 271-FZ through major repairs or reconstruction.
Procedure: we seek recognition of the house as unsafe
Now let’s look at how to recognize a house as dilapidated or unsafe, step by step:
- Draw up an application and submit it to the municipal authority;
- Collect documents;
- Order an examination to recognize a building as unsafe from an organization with a license to conduct it;
- Take part in the work of the commission to recognize the house as unsafe;
- At the end of the commission’s work, make a request to the municipality whether the house is recognized as subject to demolition or not.
Please note: if a residential building is an architectural monument, it will not be subject to demolition, no matter how unsuitable its condition may be. For an apartment owner who expects to get another housing, the procedure for recognizing a house as unsafe in this case is useless.
The law distinguishes between architectural monuments of federal, regional and local significance. To find out if your home is one of them, you need to make a written request to your local architecture department.
If it does, the maximum you will achieve is a conclusion about the need for repair or restoration of the building. Please note that the examination to recognize an architectural monument as unsafe is carried out only by an organization with a separate license and is more expensive.
Important: at the beginning of the process, try to agree with the owners of other apartments to share the costs of the examination. Residents of an apartment building also have the right to submit a collective application to recognize the building as unsafe.

Who checks the suitability of the house
Having registered an application, municipal authorities are obliged to transfer it to the permanent interdepartmental commission for recognizing housing as unsafe or to create a commission specifically to inspect your house.
The interdepartmental commission includes:
- representatives of regional and municipal authorities;
- design engineers;
- representatives of Rospotrebnadzor, sanitary-epidemiological, fire and other services;
- owners or tenants of housing.
It is recommended to join the commission or at least closely observe how officials recognize housing as dilapidated and unsafe in order to help them draw the right conclusions.
The period for consideration of the application does not exceed 30 days, and in special cases is reduced to 1 day.
What documents are required
Collecting numerous documents is the most difficult stage of the procedure for declaring housing unfit for habitation. Here is the standard list of papers:
- a notarized copy of the title document for the apartment or the social tenancy agreement;
- registration certificate of an apartment building from the BTI;
- expert opinion on the technical condition of housing;
- an act of inspection of the building by the property owner, performed over the last three years, indicating the types and volumes of repair work during this period;
- act of the housing inspection in the subject of the federation on the current condition of the house;
- other documents required by the municipality or interdepartmental commission.
The procedure for recognizing housing as unsafe and issues of relocation from such a house are covered in the following video
The procedure for submitting an application to recognize a house as unsafe
The procedure for recognizing housing as unsafe or dilapidated begins with the submission of an application to the interdepartmental commission. This is preceded by the collection of necessary documents. Before contacting the interdepartmental commission, you must collect the following papers:
- applicant's passport;
- technical passport for residential premises;
- title papers for the apartment. This is a document that records the fact that a citizen has received property rights, for example, a purchase and sale agreement, a certificate of acceptance of an inheritance;
- building plan from the Bureau of Technical Inventory;
- home inspection reports for the last three years, which reflect all the work performed;
- conclusion of a sanitary and epidemiological examination;
- conclusion of fire safety examination;
- conclusion on the technical condition of the building;
- housing inspection report on home inspections;
- statements from residents, which reflect the fact of non-compliance with living conditions;
- other documents.
More effective in this case would be the collective submission of applications from all owners in an apartment building. If any of the residents is unable to be present when submitting the application, you can attach complaints about the living conditions and technical condition of the building.
Owners of residential and non-residential premises in the building, as well as tenants of municipal apartments, can submit applications. Residents who live in the house on the basis of a residential lease agreement (rent) for a fee do not participate in the procedure and are not subject to relocation. In this case, applications must be submitted by the apartment owners - lessors.
An interdepartmental commission plays one of the leading roles in the procedure for recognizing a house as unsafe. In general the order looks like this:
- collecting the necessary documents and submitting an application and papers to the interdepartmental commission;
- consideration of the application by the commission and examination of the building;
- receiving a certificate based on the results of the examination. This document is drawn up in 3 copies, one of which is handed over to the applicant who initiated the procedure. All commission members put their signatures on the act. Otherwise, the act will not be valid;
- making a decision on the condition of the house by a commission. It is issued based on the results of consideration of the situation and the conclusions of the examination on the building’s compliance with sanitary and technical standards. The decision is made within two weeks after signing the act on the condition of the house;
- within five days after the decision is made, members of the commission must transmit information about the condition of the house to the administration of the locality;
- making a decision by the municipality on the relocation of owners. After relocation, the object is reconstructed or demolished.
Once the demolition decision is officially made, residents must enroll in a relocation program.
