Kirov residents were reminded how to protect their apartment from scammers.

      The Kirov Region Office of the Federal Service for State Registration, Cadastre and Cartography reminded about the possibility of establishing a special prohibition on registration actions with real estate without the owner's presence. After submitting an application, a special mark appears in the Unified State Register of Real Estate. If someone attempts to sell, re-register, or limit rights to the property by power of attorney or on behalf of the owner, the documents will simply be returned without consideration. This measure is considered one of the ways to protect against fraudsters who try to conduct transactions with apartments and houses without the owners' knowledge. Applications can be submitted in two ways: in person at any Multifunctional Center with a passport; through the "Gosuslugi" portal with a verified account. The Federal Service clarified that the restriction is indefinite. It can only be removed by the owner's application, after the transfer of ownership, or by a court decision. You can check whether a prohibition on registration actions has been established through an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate or in your personal account on "Gosuslugi."
