According to the Land Code of the Russian Federation, the right of common shared ownership of the adjacent territory of the owners of apartments in an apartment building arises immediately after the state cadastral registration of the site. From this time on, the owners not only pay the costs of its maintenance and improvement, in particular, cleaning, paving, lighting and others, but also get the opportunity to dispose of this land. One of the advantages of such privatization is considered to be the ability of residents, for example, to prevent infill development in their yard. At the same time, a number of restrictions apply to the commercial use of the local area. According to Roman Rechkin (Ekaterinburg), senior partner of the Intellect-S legal security agency, there is a concept of “permitted use of a land plot”, it is indicated in the cadastral passport. “Nothing can be done with such a plot of land that will interfere with the operation of a residential building. But if the permitted use is not violated, the owners at the general meeting have the right to provide it for use, for example, for a kiosk, parking lot, advertising structures, the income from the activities of which can then be used for general needs, primarily for the maintenance of the house,” the expert noted .
