  • to the prosecutor's office , which is authorized to receive all complaints received from citizens and carry out the necessary operational actions.

Where else can I file a complaint?

Another option is to contact the city Housing Inspectorate. This supervisory body is obliged to conduct inspections of the housing stock, including based on statements from residents. If the inspection reveals violations in the work of the management organization, then the inspection has the right to impose a number of sanctions on it - from material to administrative.

Since relations with public utilities are often subject to the provisions of the Law “On the Protection of Consumer Rights”, in case of any violations on the part of the management company, the home owner has the right to file a complaint with Rospotrebnadzor. You can submit an application by visiting the local department of this state supervisory organization, or use for these purposes the official website of the Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare. If the requirements specified in the application do not require an unscheduled inspection of the management company, then it can be submitted without authorization in the ESIA (State Services) system. Otherwise, this procedure cannot be avoided.

In what cases is it better to immediately sue the management company?

In cases where the material interests of residents . In other words, when it is necessary to receive monetary compensation from the management company.

For example , due to the fault of the management company, a car in the courtyard of a house was damaged due to fallen dead wood. What to do? Who will pay for the repairs? Of course it's the culprit. In this case, the management company was obliged to eliminate a potentially dangerous object, but did not do so. And if, in response to your demand for compensation for damage, the Criminal Code does not respond, delays payment, or refuses, then the only sure way is to go to court. Another common violation on the part of management companies is overestimating payments for utilities. If the management company does not agree to recalculate, then you can sue the housing and communal services.

Important! According to the norms of the current legislation, you can complain to the court about the Criminal Code if YOUR rights are directly violated. This means that if a dead tree fell on a neighbor’s car, then only the neighbor can file a claim against the management company.

Inadequate maintenance of an apartment building

A management company is an organization that is obliged to perform its assigned functions on a professional basis, provide residents with quality services, and also report on all activities.

Consequently, apartment owners have the right to file a complaint if housing and communal services fail to fulfill their obligations.

The reasons may be as follows:

  • the entrance must be renovated - major or cosmetic repairs;
  • the elevator does not work for a long time or the garbage chute is broken;
  • poor heating in the premises during the winter season or it does not work at all;
  • Light bulbs in the entrance and stairwells burned out.

Where to complain?

Legal practice establishes many customs, one of which is to attempt a peaceful settlement of a dispute before turning to the judiciary or regulatory authorities.

Therefore, first you need to contact the management company by sending it a claim.

It should contain:

  • information to whom the paper is sent - full name of the official;
  • an indication of who it was compiled from;
  • description of the problem;
  • solutions;
  • date of compilation and signature of the applicant (applicants).

It is recommended to personally deliver the claim to the housing and communal services office, and you must keep one copy, which will bear the signature of the management.

After this, there may be several ways the situation can develop:

  1. All requirements will be taken into account and satisfied.
  2. The management company will not respond to the complaint.

If the legal demands of the residents of the house are not fulfilled, the following options are provided:

  1. One of the most effective ways is to contact the Housing Inspectorate. This government body is authorized to conduct inspections of the housing stock based on statements from residents. Based on the results of the audit, it can impose sanctions on the management company - material and administrative.
  2. If the housing inspection does not approve the contract, then you can file an appeal to Rospotrebnadzor. In accordance with the concluded agreement with the housing and communal services for the maintenance of an apartment building, its activities are subject to the standards of the Federal Law ZPP. Consequently, if a citizen’s rights are not fulfilled in full, then he has the right to file an application with Rospotrebnadzor. Specialists from this body will also conduct an inspection, after which, if necessary, they will apply sanctions to the unscrupulous management company.
  3. If an appeal to Rospotreb does not produce results, it is recommended to file a complaint with the prosecutor’s office or court. This issue requires more detailed consideration.

How to sue a housing and communal services management company?

It is necessary to go to court if the complaint is based on non-fulfillment of clauses included in the contract, as well as if the dispute is material.

The purpose of the complaint is to pay compensation for damage caused.

Where to contact?

When deciding which court to appeal to, it is necessary to take into account Article 28 of the Code of Civil Procedure of the Russian Federation.

On its basis, the statement of claim is filed at the location of the management company. In this case, the legal address must be taken into account. Filing a claim can also occur at the place where the contract was concluded or at the place of official registration of the plaintiff.

Protection of the rights of residents is carried out in court, therefore a claim, the cost of which does not exceed 5,000 rubles, is submitted to the magistrate of the site for consideration.

The application is submitted to the district court in the following situations:

  • the dispute does not concern property interests, for example, resolving the issue of providing certain documents on the part of the tenant;
  • when filing an application, the plaintiff independently finds it difficult to determine the damage caused by the management company as a result of the violation of his legitimate interests;
  • filing a claim is carried out only for the purpose of collecting compensation for moral damage caused.

Arbitrage practice

It is important to note that interaction with housing and communal services by submitting a claim directly to the office, then to the Housing Inspectorate and Rospotrebnadzor is not at all mandatory.

However, judicial practice shows that the absence of claims against the defendant often becomes the reason for the refusal to satisfy a claim demanding the imposition of a fine on the management company.

  • Statement of claim for compensation for damage caused by the management company (sample)

The following sample (form) of a statement of claim against the management organization (management company) for compensation for damage caused as a result of the latter’s improper execution of the management agreement for an apartment building is posted on the website of the Novocheboksarsky City Court of the Chuvash Republic (novocheboksarsky.chv.sudrf.ru).

What terms of the management contract are most often violated by the management company?

A common practice for most Russian management companies in the housing and communal services sector is improper fulfillment of the terms of the management agreement regarding the maintenance of the common property of an apartment building.

The traditional argument “there are not enough funds in the house account to carry out the work” and the inaction of the management company leads to the destruction of elements of the common property of the apartment building, resulting in damage to the property of the citizens who own the premises of the house, as well as the property of the owners of non-residential premises.

For example, a roof leak – inaction of the management company – caused damage to the apartment owners of the premises on the outermost floors due to flooding; freezing of ice, accumulation of snow on roofs, eaves - inaction of the management company - harm to human health as a result of falling ice or damage to property as a result of the same ice or snow falling on the owner’s car. We recommend that you read more about these and other cases of damage as a result of the management company’s inaction in the review of practice “Responsibilities of the management company in the housing and communal services sector for maintenance and repairs. Arbitrage practice ".

According to the management agreement, the management company is not responsible for damage

Let us remind you that the absence of provisions on the responsibility of the management company in the management agreement for an apartment building is not a basis for exemption from such liability.

In the same way, the absence in the contract of conditions regarding the obligations of the management company, for example, to immediately repair roof leaks, remove ice and snow from roofs, etc., does not indicate that the management company does not have such an obligation. In this case, the provisions of Gosstroy Decree No. 179 of 2003 apply.

The court only needs to provide evidence that the defendant is the organization that manages the apartment building.
