In case of attempt to transfer housing with problems to the interest-holder, he can refuse to accept it and demand to put it in order. The developer must return it on time in a renovated form. And if it does not, the interest-holder can demand a penalty. But does this rule work for small, easily removable defects? Two courts answered in different ways, and the Civil Collegium of the Supreme Court put a point in the case.
The CEO of the National Law Company "Mitra" Yury Mirzoev commented on this situation and recalled that from the 1st of January 2017 part 7 Article 8 of the Law on Participation in Shared Construction is in force, which obliges the developer to pay a penalty for violating the deadlines for the elimination of defects.
