From this article you will learn:
- What documents will be required first for the construction of a private house?
- How to obtain permission to build a private house
- What to do after you have collected all the documents for building a private house
Every person who has not yet managed to build one has a dream of owning their own home. To realize such a dream, great efforts must be made. One of the stages of this path is the study of the legal aspect of this issue. According to the legal provisions, a special regulatory regime is provided for residential real estate. In this article we will tell you what documents should be prepared for the construction of a private house and its subsequent registration.
What documents are needed to build a private house?
How to build a private house?
Where to start building a house on the site? Sometimes this is not the purchase of building materials, but the collection of necessary papers. What documents may be needed to build a house on your own site?
Having decided to start building a house, many do not think about obtaining permission to do so. However, as follows from the provisions of the Town Planning Code of the Russian Federation, its presence is required to give the building legal status.
According to its provisions, such permission is mandatory for the construction or reconstruction of any capital facilities.
Private houses also belong to the category of permanent buildings, and are buildings (up to 3 floors in height) in which one family lives. Houses built with this document cannot be considered illegally built.
In its absence, there may be problems with entering information into a unified cadastre, registering owner rights, and establishing communications. Obtaining loans for the construction of private houses without permits will also be problematic. State institutions and bodies recognize such buildings as actually built without permission in violation of the law. There are fines for their construction.
Why do we need house plans?
Perhaps there will be adventurers who are ready to build a house without a project. However, having this document provides a number of advantages:
- allows you to select the type of house and then obtain the necessary design information; simplifies the process of obtaining a building permit;
- gives the Customer the opportunity to control the progress of the construction process, even without special education;
- allows you to save on building materials thanks to accurately made calculations;
- eliminates errors during the construction process and protects against illiterate decisions. The project contains plans, sections and various tested components, which protects against the costs of troubleshooting;
- creates conditions for connection to a centralized water supply and power supply network;
- allows you to easily put the house into operation and obtain PIB passports;
- facilitates real estate registration;
- simplifies the process of insuring an object.
Thus, we are convinced that building a house without a project poses a huge risk. By saving on the preparation of basic documentation, the Customer exposes himself to the danger of losing a significantly larger amount of money to eliminate errors and miscalculations. And making claims against builders without a project is a very complicated procedure...

When is permission not required?
Which properties will not require additional permits?
Since development is usually not limited to one house, citizens often have questions about obtaining permits for all buildings. When answering this question, you should refer to Article 51 of the Town Planning Code of the Russian Federation. Its provisions contain a list of cases when such permission is not mandatory:
- for economic auxiliary buildings;
- for a garage on a summer cottage or other area not used for business activities;
- during the construction and reconstruction of buildings that are not related to capital construction projects;
- repair, reconstruction of objects without significant changes to their design and basic characteristics.
This list is not final and closed; the provisions of urban planning legislation may provide for other cases.
Features and validity periods
If the procedure for obtaining a construction permit is followed, the approval document is issued for a 10-year period (this was already mentioned earlier). But the laws of the Russian Federation stipulate cases when a document may become invalid. This is possible if the land plot was withdrawn from use, the person himself abandoned the allotment, or the validity period of the papers for the right to use the land plot (for example, a lease agreement) expired. Within up to a month, the permit is revoked and becomes invalid.
If during the construction of the object the owner changes for various reasons, there is no need to redo the documentation. This rule is also relevant in the case when the division of land plots occurs between several citizens. The only aspect is the need to register a GPZU.
The nuances of obtaining permission for the construction of individual housing construction projects
Change of owner of a land plot allocated for individual housing construction.
In connection with obtaining permits for individual housing construction, potential developers have many questions. First of all, it should be noted that until 2021 there is a simplified procedure for obtaining them for individual housing construction. There is no need to prepare project documentation for this today. The procedure itself is free; no fees or charges are charged when issuing permits.
It is especially worth considering cases when there is a change of ownership of a land plot or the building itself. What should I do if, after receiving permission, the plot allocated for construction becomes the property of another person?
Many people think that in this case they will have to obtain permits again or re-issue old ones. In fact, there is no need to do this if it has not expired. Thus, it will be valid for all site owners until the deadline expires.
When dividing or merging land plots for individual housing construction, construction can also be carried out on the basis of previously issued permits.
Time and cost of documentation development work
The time frame for developing a country house construction project depends on its scale and conditions, which are discussed individually with the client.
Before starting to develop a project, the contractor enters into a formal contract with the customer. This agreement specifies the terms, payment procedure and cost of services. Most companies work on partial prepayment.
Availability of design documentation is mandatory for any type of construction. The cost of the project depends on:
- location of the object;
- specifics of the land plot;
- building dimensions;
- volume of technical specifications.
In addition to planning the building, engineers can also develop a project for landscaping the land.
To minimize actions and costs when building a private country house, it is better to order turnkey construction from a specialized company. If you have already chosen a contractor, then remember that not only the safety of the facility, but also the subsequent successful commissioning of the building depends on the quality of the design documentation. And the theoretical part of the project is the basis for contractors and a visual representation of your future home.
To find out more detailed information about the specifics of drafting a project, it is recommended to contact specialized companies.
Termination of building permit
According to current legislative norms, the validity period of permits for the construction of individual housing construction projects is ten years. Therefore, as a general rule, its validity is terminated due to the expiration of this period.
However, under certain circumstances, it may be terminated earlier. These include:
- relinquishment of ownership rights to the site;
- upon termination of such a right forcibly, including for state needs;
- termination (termination) of agreements on the basis of land ownership rights;
- termination of subsoil use rights if further construction is impossible without them.
Based on information about the termination of rights to land, the authorized bodies revoke the permit within a month.
Documentation
The Town Planning Code specifies a list of documents required in order to obtain permission to construct a building. The list is large, collecting papers will take time, so preparation for construction should begin in advance. The list will be different for developers and individual construction:
- You will need a project for the construction of the facility. It should only be ordered from specialists. You can choose a ready-made one if the company is engaged in this type of activity.
- Title documents for land.
- Application for a permit.
- Explanatory note.
- You must also provide a site plan that complies with city planning regulations. It must indicate the location of the object, approaches to it, entrances.
- Site planning organization diagram. She must confirm the location of the construction project within the red lines established by the territory planning documents.
- Diagram showing architectural solutions.
- Project documentation relating to the organization of the construction process.
- Plan for utility networks and equipment. It must indicate the connection points of the facility under construction to centralized networks.
- Conclusion of the State Examination of design documents.
- Permit document for possible deviations from the boundary parameters of permitted construction work.
- If this is a reconstruction, you need to submit an agreement with the copyright holders of the object, which is related to the reconstruction work.
It is much easier to collect documents for individual construction, which involves the construction of a building of no more than 3 floors for one family. In this case you need to provide:
- Title documents for land.
- Site plan.
- A layout diagram that will indicate the location of the house.
The urban planning plan for the site can be obtained from the local administration.
Registration of ownership rights to individual housing construction objects
Registration of rights to a residential building
In order to become the full owner of a built house, you must go through the registration procedure. At the same time, you can apply for registration of both a fully rebuilt house and unfinished construction.
The territorial divisions of Rosreestr deal with registration issues. Until March 2021, registration of individual housing construction objects in a simplified manner remains possible.
To contact the Rosreestr authorities you will need:
- registration application;
- applicant's passport (other identification document);
- documents on rights to a land plot;
- documents confirming construction.
If the plot is registered in the prescribed manner and registered in the real estate cadastre, the registration procedure will be simpler. In this case, there is no need to submit any documents for it; Rosreestr already has all the information.
If the land plot is not included in the cadastre, then registration of the individual housing construction project built on it from the beginning of 2021 cannot be carried out. However, until 2021, it is possible to register it on the basis of a declaration describing the objects.
As for the documents confirming the construction of the facility, these include a cadastral passport and a building permit. The latter is required for objects whose construction is not completed. In turn, the cadastral passport is drawn up on the basis of a technical plan, drawn up taking into account the construction permit received. In addition to the specified documents, it is necessary to pay the state fee.
If all necessary documents are provided, the application will be considered within ten days.
Types of house projects
To date, turnkey house projects are being carried out in two versions:
- Typical house designs. Represents projects of multiple use. Created as a general template specifically for this purpose.
- Individual house projects. It is carried out from scratch exclusively according to the wishes of a specific customer.
In terms of pricing policy, these two options differ from each other. Therefore, the question “house project price” is the most frequently asked question in Internet search engines today. Let us immediately note that a standard project is cheaper. After all, it already exists; all that remains is to make adjustments at the construction site.
In short, minor changes are made that do not affect the cost of a typical project. Subject to agreement with the Customer, the following is replaced:
- strip foundation on a monolithic slab;
- wooden beams for monolithic floors;
- bricks on aerated concrete, subject to ensuring load-bearing capacity;
- roofing covering.
Typical house design for construction using Canadian technology
A slight increase in the cost of the project can be facilitated by such design changes as:
- replacing aerated concrete with brick;
- changing the exterior decoration of facades;
- adjusting the height of floors and their number.
On a note! An individual project for the construction of a house differs in cost by several times from the price of a standard project. Its development can range from 200 to 700 rubles per square meter.
A clear technical specification for the design and analysis of the Customer’s wishes allow us to create a three-dimensional model divided into floors. Thanks to this layout, you can get a clear idea of your future home. Save time and money by avoiding misunderstandings and misunderstandings with builders.
Documents for registration of a land plot for individual housing construction
What documents are required to obtain a plot of land for individual construction?
Before you start building your own private house, you need to purchase land intended for this. Issues regarding the provision of such plots are within the competence of municipal administrations. Anyone wishing to receive a plot of land for individual housing construction must apply there, indicating the purpose of use.
The distribution of plots is carried out on the basis of an auction. Some categories of persons have the right to receive free land, in particular, large families, veterans, and disabled people. The decision to allocate land to these persons is decided in order of priority by a special commission.
The second opportunity to purchase land for individual housing construction is to purchase it from another private person under an agreement. Regardless of the basis for its acquisition, the right to it must be registered with Rosreestr. To do this, you need to submit an application and a certain package of documents. These include:
- passport (other identity document);
- a document certifying a person’s rights to real estate;
- cadastral plan of the site;
- registration application;
- receipt of payment of state duty.
What happens next
If you forgot to include any information in the notice or did not provide any of the required documents, your notice will be returned to you within three business days with an indication of the reason. It will be considered rejected.
If everything is in order, the review of documents will begin. Within seven business days, the notification will be reviewed and an official response to it will be sent to you. It has a long, tricky title: “Notification of the compliance of the parameters of an individual housing construction project or garden house specified in the notice of planned construction with the established parameters and the admissibility of placing an individual housing construction project on a land plot.” In other words, they will tell you whether you can start building or not. If not, you will receive a “Notice of Non-Compliance (hereafter) and Inadmissibility (hereafter)”.
Why might you be refused?
- The Town Planning Code states that a notice of non-compliance can only be given in a few cases. The first is if the setbacks from the boundaries of the site and the parameters of the house do not meet the established requirements (the house is taller than 20 meters, has more than three floors, is planned to be divided into several apartments, is located closer than 3 meters (for Kazan) from the border of the site, etc. .
- The construction of a permanent house within the boundaries you specified is generally prohibited (for example, this type of development is not allowed for the site, and for some reason you did not know about it).
- You submit a notice of planned construction without having any rights to this land.
- You are trying to build on the territory of a historical settlement or in the protected zone of the OKN, and the appearance of your future home is not suitable for this territory.
In any case, if you receive a non-compliance notice, it will indicate the reason.
If you receive a Compliance Notice, that's a green light: it's considered official approval. For 10 years from this moment you have the right to conduct construction in the specified contour.
Liliya Kupchikhina warns: “It’s better, of course, not to delay 10 years, but to try to build earlier. The fact is that during this time, some security zone may “self-organize” on your site - for example, a linear facility (say, a power line or an ethane pipeline). And in this case, even if you initially received a notification of compliance, subsequently, when you begin the procedure for registering the built house, you may be refused to issue the corresponding notification.”
Project of a private house and its passport
Drawing up a project for a private house and its passport
To obtain permission to build your house, you do not need to provide design documentation. At the same time, the developer can prepare it at his own request. The house project includes all the basic data and characteristics necessary for its construction. It includes architectural, construction and engineering information, including plans, drawings of all parts of the house, its communications, estimates, and project passport.
What are house plans?
In the process of preparing articles about new construction, capital construction, etc., we described the basic components, without which the process of constructing a building is impossible. At the same time, it was repeatedly emphasized that the presence of a project is the basis of the entire construction process.
In materials about houses made of logs, houses made of aerated concrete, houses made of bricks, it was described in general terms what house designs represent themselves. These are not at all exquisite drawings by an artist, nor colorful bright pictures from a glossy magazine or advertising website.
House projects are the result of complex and responsible work. Technical work! The task is carried out by specialists with engineering education, who make all calculations in accordance with GOSTs and SNiPs.
On a note! House projects represent sets of drawings or Working Documentation, without which the construction of a house is impossible. This can lead to unnecessary costs and irreversible consequences.
Summing up communications
Plan for connecting communications to a residential building
When purchasing plots for individual housing construction, you do not always receive a piece of land ready for exploitation. If the site is located in a dacha cooperative or other populated area, then the issue of connecting communications is easier to solve.
Water supply, sewerage, gas or electricity are necessary for the normal functioning of the house. Depending on the location of the site itself and the nearby communications, issues of connecting them can entail large time and financial costs.
If there is no possibility of connecting to public networks or it is too expensive, you can install autonomous communications yourself.
Initial data
To avoid problems during the construction process, the customer provides the designer with the following initial data:
- GPZU or territory planning project that will be used for the construction of the facility.
- Papers reflecting the results of engineering surveys. If they are not prepared, a task is required to complete them.
- Technical conditions (if ensuring the operation of a construction site requires technical connection).
Thus, the main initial data are:
- Assignment for preparation of project documentation. It specifies the requirements put forward by the customer in various areas of construction work. This category includes architectural, engineering and other solutions. It also reflects the cost of project development and estimates, as well as the procedure for organizing each stage of construction work.
A project development assignment is a document that is approved by the customer after agreeing on the construction conditions with the main investor of the project. Before starting work, approval of the task and making adjustments to it (if there are errors) is required. At the final stage, the papers are signed and stamped.
- Restoration assignment is a document that is issued separately or together with the main project (depending on current requirements and standards). Further execution and implementation of the agreement between the parties for the implementation of the project is carried out in the manner prescribed by the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and the legislation of the Russian Federation in general. If the development of design documentation is carried out for budget money, the choice of designer is made taking into account current requirements and legislation. At the same time, the price and technology of the process are negotiated at an early stage.
- Technical conditions. Such initial data can complement the design documentation. At the same time, performers must know the specifics of their application. This aspect is also regulated by Government Resolution No. 87. The document states that the development of technical specifications is mandatory in a number of cases. Firstly, when the relevant requirements are not reflected in regulations. Secondly, in a situation where the development of a project requires the fulfillment of a greater number of requirements regarding the safety and reliability of structures. The creation of technical conditions is carried out taking into account the standards established by law. In practice, its creation is carried out by the Housing and Communal Services of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Construction of the Russian Federation, as well as other government bodies.

It turns out that the project includes working documentation in cases provided for by law, as well as when concluding certain agreements between the customer and the contractor. Sometimes the project is supplemented with technical specifications in the manner prescribed by law.
Commissioning of a residential building
Obtaining permission to put into operation a constructed dwelling
The logical completion of the construction of a private house is its commissioning. To obtain the appropriate permit, you must contact your local administration. This procedure is free and does not require any costs.
According to the norms of urban planning legislation, such permission is required to register the owner’s rights to the erected structure. However, temporarily, until March 1, 2021, this requirement may not be fulfilled.
To put the building into operation, you must submit an application accompanied by the following documents:
- documents on rights to a land plot;
- urban planning plan of the site;
- technical plan;
- document confirming compliance with all technical standards;
- plan of communications and technical structures;
- act of acceptance of construction;
The application and the documents attached to it are considered by the authorized bodies. As a rule, the review period does not exceed ten days.
What information is required to develop a house project?
House designs will be more competent and professional if they are developed on the basis of official documents.
Sample extract from USRN
I. Extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate about the property (former cadastral extract of the land plot)
The initial data about the property, obtained on the basis of an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate, contains a site plan and a link to the coordinate points of the site. This plays a major role at the preliminary design stage. Helps to correctly place a house on a plot of land.
Often, information about the size of the plot received from the Customer is insufficient. The shape of a land plot with the same linear dimensions (length and width) can be different. And this is understandable - not every plot of land has a rectangular shape.
It is the coordinate points that complement the information about the unique location of the land plot on the ground. So, from now on there is no need to navigate by the neighbors’ fence, which may have stood even before the acquisition of the land plot.
What is an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate?
Federal Law No. 218-FZ of July 13, 2015 “On State Registration of Real Estate” regulates the receipt of a document, the full and official name of which is: “Extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate about a real estate property.”
The standard extract form was approved by Order No. 975 of the Ministry of Economic Development of December 25, 2015. The document consists of numerous sections for different real estate objects. When designing, you need information from section 3, which contains important information for performing design work.
For example, a description of the location of the land plot, a plan, possibly a drawing or diagram of the land plot, a description of the location of the boundaries of the plot. As well as data on characteristic points of the border of the land plot.
An extract from the Unified State Register is obtained at the location of the land plot through:
- multifunctional center (MFC);
- cadastral chamber;
- Rosreestr website.
Drawing of a house project for one owner
What is needed to obtain an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate?
To obtain an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate, it is enough to know the cadastral number of the land plot, which must be indicated in the certificate of ownership.
If you do not have a certificate with you, there is a public cadastral map of Rosreestr, which can be used to assist in obtaining an extract. I would like to say right away that the period for issuing an extract is 3 working days, and the cost is:
- 750 rubles – paper statement;
- 300 rubles – in electronic form.
True, it is not always possible to obtain an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate in accordance with the provisions of Federal Law No. 218-FZ. The time frame for preparing an extract through the MFC may take a month, but at the Cadastral Chamber the document will take about 3 weeks. Given the current situation, it is necessary to worry about discharge in advance.
Ideally, obtain it in parallel with the search for a design organization.
If it suddenly turns out that the statement is not yet ready for the start of design work, do not despair. The location of the house on the land plot can be clarified even at the final stages of the preliminary design.
In general, when house projects are being developed, an extract from the Unified State Register brings significant benefits:
- It provides peace of mind that the fence is located exactly along the boundaries of the land plot. And not on a neighbor’s property, for example. This circumstance helps to avoid a variety of border disputes with neighbors in the future.
- Helps in creating landscape design. When developing a project for building a house, the section on improvement of the land plot is immediately filled out.
- Allows verification with cadastral coordinates. Although, even at the stage of acquiring a land plot, it is advisable to obtain a document clarifying the boundaries of the site by plotting coordinate points in nature. This is what surveyors do.
Project of a house with a basement
Note! It is no secret that sometimes incidents happen when it is later discovered that the customer, using documents (precisely coordinate points), acquired either a neighboring plot or a completely different plot of land. It is important to take a responsible approach to both the choice and purchase of a plot!
II. Engineering and geodetic surveys (topographic survey) for house design
Engineering and geodetic surveys or topographic survey of a land plot (abbreviated as “topographic survey”) are a set of works with the help of which measurements of geodetic points of the land plot on which the future house will be built are carried out for the subsequent creation of topographic plans.
The collected information about the topography of a land plot helps create house designs faster and cheaper. However, geodetic surveying is needed not only when developing a project. It is also necessary for:
- obtaining a building permit, urban development plan and planning scheme for the organization of the site;
- connecting the house to communications;
- carrying out a project to improve a plot of land or create a landscape design.
Topographic survey helps not only to obtain information about existing communications (underground and above-ground). Its tasks are much broader:
- land survey;
- determination of spatial characteristics of the area;
- searching for underground communications with subsequent surveying;
- creation of diagrams for laying utility networks with subsequent development of a topographic plan;
- leaving reports in accordance with the received data and information.
Topographic plan of a site of non-standard shape
It is advisable to carry out engineering and geodetic surveys at the design stage. That is, at the stage of developing a preliminary design of the house. It is at the beginning of the development of the preliminary design stage that the architect and the customer agree on the location of the house on the land plot.
Is topographic survey necessary?
Topographic surveys can be carried out at any time of the year using a total station device, which must have a certificate obtained after undergoing regular accuracy tests. Sometimes doubt arises whether topographic survey is necessary at all. Is it possible to do without it?
I would like to immediately emphasize that topographic survey is necessary. Its presence will help to avoid a number of unpleasant situations, which, in turn, can not only increase financial costs, but also create additional problems. Due to the lack of topographic survey, the risk of making mistakes increases when:
- choosing the height of the steps or the number of steps for the porch design;
- laying the ground level of the vents for ventilation of the base. This leads to the fact that in winter they are often covered with snow;
- calculating the amount of materials for the construction of the basement. It may turn out that you need more than you expected, or less - and you wasted your money;
- determining the point of connection of communications to the main networks.
Sample topographic survey
III. Engineering geological surveys (geology) for design
Engineering-geological surveys or “ geology ” contains a number of activities for a comprehensive study of the engineering-geological conditions of a land plot for the future construction of objects that combine geomorphological and hydrogeological processes, geological-lithological structure, and also allow making forecasts of possible changes in engineering-geological conditions during interaction of the designed house with the geology of the land plot.
On a note! Only engineering-geological surveys make it possible to obtain the necessary information for designing the future foundation and laying underground communications, taking into account certain characteristics of the soil in a given area.
When creating turnkey house projects, it is necessary to take these circumstances into account. They help to make an accurate calculation, which in most cases leads to an economically justified cost of the foundation. And, thereby, making the project optimally profitable in terms of price/quality ratio.
If geotechnical surveys have not been carried out, the calculation of the load-bearing structures of the house will be carried out using averaged or tabulated indicators, the characteristics of which correspond to the type of soil of the given site. Such indicators may have significant differences from the actual properties of soils on the selected land plot.
A detailed analysis of the above documents allows us to understand that by developing house projects, customers save significantly. Material costs are reduced and construction time is reduced. This means that the dream of owning your own home becomes more realistic.
Low-rise building project
Pros and cons of individual housing construction
A plot of land intended to be used for individual housing construction has a number of significant advantages. Being the owner of your own piece of land, you can build houses and other buildings on it according to your plan and design. Many private houses are attracted by the absence of neighbors.
Individual housing construction objects are subject to a simplified procedure for registration and processing of tax deductions. However, owners of such plots will have to come to terms with some restrictions. First of all, they relate to the size of the site itself and the structure being built on it.
In addition, obtaining plots and constructing private houses are strictly regulated and require the issuance of permits and the preparation of a large volume of documents. This type of land use is more expensive.

Now in some regions everything has become much simpler. You submit documents to the MFC and they will help you and explain everything. But you still have to run. No one will do the project at the MFC and approve it.
Answer
pros
If they have their own land, people often decide to build a private house (individual housing construction project). In this case, the owner has a number of advantages:
- LUs have the right to participate in various government programs.
- A person does not depend on other owners (provided that the plot is not owned by a group of people).
- It is possible to construct a residential building without restrictions and additional problems.
- The owner has the right to be assigned to the property and use the services of hospital, government and other institutions.
What kind of construction needs to be notified?
The following construction is subject to the notification procedure:
- An individual residential building on land for individual housing construction or private plots;
- Garden house on SNT lands.
Please note that from January 1, 2021, lands used by summer residents are divided into two types: garden and vegetable gardens. Construction of a residential building is now possible only on plots of the first type and only after notifying the municipality. Land for gardening has a different purpose and is no longer subject to residential development.
Categories of land and types of permitted use
What are the restrictions when building a house?
Please note that in the summer of 2021, the Russian Government approved draft laws relating to unauthorized development and establishing uniform parameters for individual housing (IHC) under construction. According to the head of the Ministry of Construction of the Russian Federation Mikhail Men, individual housing construction is:
- A separate residential building with no more than three above-ground floors and a height of up to 20 m.
- Such a house should not consist of separate apartments or block sections.
- The above restrictions also apply to garden and residential buildings on summer cottages.
- The law establishes legal regulation of the construction of individual housing construction with an area of up to 500 and more than 500 square meters. m.
