State Registration of Rights to Real Property
Under the current Russian legislation, real property rights and transactions are subject to state registration by an authorized body Rosreestr, the Federal Service for State Registration, Cadastre and Cartography.
The state registration procedure is provided by law. In particular, it is necessary to apply to the authorized state agency conducting state registration. You should also submit property title documents (e.g. a rental agreement).
Why Do You Need Legal Support of Real Estate Transactions?
As the property is a valuable asset, you have to make sure that it is legally sound, not an object of dispute and there ought to be no third party claiming the property before signing an agreement.
