Land categories: what you need to pay attention when buying a land plot

Ecology of major cities leaves much to be desired todaybetter - there is no special need to argue about this, and it's pointless. And most urban residents understand this perfectly, and therefore they strive to acquire a dacha with all their strength, or, in general, to move to a permanent residence outside the city, to clean air, closer to the pristine nature and away from the noisy bustle of the metropolis. Not everyone can afford to buy a cottage or a ready cottage outside the city. However, there is still a way out of the situation - today there is a real opportunity to purchase a land plot, on which, as far as possible and capable, you can build your own dacha or suburban housing.

It is for this reason that the issue ofindividual housing construction, requires a very scrupulous study and competent approach. Most potential future builders do not know on what land it is possible to build a house, and on what - it is impossible. And unscrupulous sellers, with pleasure using the inexperience of the buyer, sell the latter sites, which a priori not provided for the possibility of building not only an apartment building, but also any construction in general. Therefore, after making a decision to purchase a land allotment, we must still try to get acquainted with at least the main theses of the law regulating the postulates of individual housing construction.

In accordance with the provisions of the Land CodeRussia, agrarian allotments are subdivided into species (according to their intended purpose), which are classified as land categories. There are seven main categories. The first are agricultural land. By the second - the area of ​​settlements (they are also called the territories of settlements). The third category includes industrial and other lands designated for special use. Fourth - the areas to be protected due to their special value. The fifth category of land includes allotments of the so-called forest fund, to the sixth - the water fund. The seventh category includes the agrarian holdings of the reserve that are in municipal or state ownership.

And not all listed categories of landsuitable for the construction of residential buildings or ancillary premises on them. For this type of activity only areas of settlements and agricultural lands are intended.

To date, the most attractive forpurchase exactly agrarian sites of agricultural significance. It is quite difficult (and expensive) to buy a site for construction located on the territory of towns and cities. But for such a popular at the moment suburban construction without problems you can buy a plot of land. However, in this issue there is one "but". Not all agricultural categories of land are suitable for housing construction, but only those that have the status of plots provided for summer settlements, as well as for personal subsidiary farming or for gardening and gardening.

In all other cases, the procedure for transferring agricultural land to another category is required, which provides for the possibility of erecting a residential or other structure on the site.

The land today is an expensive and liquid commodity. Agrarian sites are valuable not only because they provide an opportunity to build a holiday home or a cottage, but also because they are a very profitable way of investing free funds. In addition, sale-purchase of land is considered a very, very profitable business. And not every salesman is a personification of honesty and decency. That is why it is possible to sell a developer who is unfamiliar with the legal bases of the transaction, to build his own house, plotting lands that do not correspond to a specific purpose.

To avoid in the future not only multiplethe troubles that will inevitably arise during the construction of a house on a site not intended for these purposes, but also the loss of a significant amount of money, it must be remembered - the categories of land plots are of paramount importance. It is for this reason that before signing a contract, it is necessary to carefully check all the necessary documents. And it is even better to carry out the transaction with the participation of a qualified specialist.
