Pennies instead of housing: how Vorobiev and DOM.RF solve the problem of shareholders

Shareholders of a 17-year-old long-term construction project in Khimki near Moscow are being deprived of their last hope of getting apartments - the DOM.RF fund, which was launched by Governor Andrei Vorobyov for construction, is offering meager compensation instead of housing. Shareholders call what is happening a raider takeover and express confidence that they want to resell their house as a business center. Details of the conflict between citizens and authorities are in the PASMI material.

Igor Vodopadov, addressed the PASMI column “Report corruption . He and four hundred of his fellow sufferers signed contracts for the purchase of apartments in Khimki back in 2003, but have not yet received housing. They want to get rid of equity holders with payments that cannot be used to buy real estate in the Moscow region. Desperate, they plan pickets at the construction site of the ill-fated house.

Leader of long-term construction

Delivery of the house at the address: st. Cherry, building 31 building 6 in Khimki near Moscow, 430 shareholders are waiting for the second decade. Agreements for the purchase of apartments were concluded in 2003. In the same year, Monolitgradstroy LLC began construction of a building with a height of 14-17 floors; completion of construction was planned for 2006.

But these plans were not destined to come true - in 2010 construction was suspended, and in 2011 the developer was declared bankrupt, and in 2012 external management was introduced in order to attract an investor to complete the house.

Since that time, the house has been on the list of problematic objects, but neither the Ministry of Construction of the Moscow Region nor the administration of the city of Khimki has taken any real action to complete the building.

Moreover, as Igor Vodopadov, one of the shareholders, told PASMI, city officials actively opposed the efforts of the external manager to attract large investors to the construction site. “Apparently, the administration pursued its own interests, insisting on involving companies close to it in the construction,” noted Igor Vodopadov.

There were many such companies from 2012 to 2021, but for various reasons construction never continued. So, in 2021, officials reported that the house will be completed by Zodiac LLC. In exchange for compensation plots and preferences for other projects, they promised to deliver the house by the end of 2021, completely changed the project, but the company never started construction and soon went bankrupt.

Deceived shareholders held protests, went on hunger strikes, wrote petitions addressed to the Governor of the Moscow Region Andrei Vorobyov and Russian President Vladimir Putin , appealed to prosecutors at all levels, up to the general, but all this led to nothing.

“The current head of the administration, Dmitry Voloshin, promised every time to resolve the problem within one or two weeks, but months passed and nothing happened,” says the defrauded shareholder.

To build or not to build

At the end of 2021, the head of the Khimki administration announced the impossibility of completing the construction of a house on Vishnevaya. As a justification for refusing to complete construction of the problematic facility, officials cite the results of a construction and technical examination. Specialists from the State Budgetary Institution “MOSOBSTROYTSNIL” came to the conclusion that “the technical condition of the building is preliminary assessed as being of limited operability and not suitable for completion of construction.”

Meanwhile, the shareholders, at their own expense, conducted two independent examinations and received exactly the opposite results. Thus, in the conclusion dated December 2021, signed by engineers from Laboratory of Construction Expertise LLC, it is stated: “Resumption of construction of a multi-storey apartment building is possible subject to the implementation of recommendations for strengthening structures with defects according to an additionally developed project.”

Vorobiev's solution

Buyers of apartments in the ill-fated building began to have hopes of finding housing at the end of last year. Andrei Vorobyov , and Vitaly Mutko , who at that time held the post of Deputy Prime Minister of the government, came to the problem site

On November 14, 2021, media controlled by the government of the Moscow region reported that Vorobiev and Mutko agreed that the Fund for the Protection of the Rights of Citizens - Participants in the Shared Construction of DOM.RF would be involved in solving the problems of the facility on Vishnevaya Street.

As reported on the official website of the Fund, this organization was created by the Russian government in 2021 with the aim of regulating relations between developers and shareholders. But in this case, instead of a settlement, a new conflict resulted.

As Igor Vodopadov explained, DOM.RF began to contradict itself in terms of resolving the issue of the fate of the problematic object. Against the backdrop of statements about the building’s unsuitability for operation at the design load, representatives of the Fund for the Protection of Shareholders’ Rights at a meeting of the Moscow Arbitration Court stated that the house would be completed.

“They misled the court in order to achieve the transfer of the bankrupt from external to bankruptcy management, appointing their own bankruptcy manager, Yulia Chernikova, and illegally removing the external manager, Lev Mirabyan, who spent 8 years fighting the bureaucracy and raiders in our house, and sought a solution with us in completion of the house. Now we have simply become hostages of DOM.RF,” noted Igor Vodopadov.

There has not yet been a meeting of the Supervisory Board of the Fund for the Defense of Rights, at which it should be decided whether the house will be completed, but shareholders have already been notified that they will receive compensation instead of apartments.

As a justification for refusing to complete the problematic facility, DOM.RF cites data from Rospotrebnadzor on excess noise levels from Sheremetyevo Airport. Meanwhile, an independent examination carried out by shareholders concludes that completion is possible if structures that compensate for aircraft noise are installed.

Interest from the sky

Particularly indignant among shareholders was the fact that, according to the DOM.RF document, the degree of readiness of the building at the address ul. Cherry, house 31, bldg. 6 is 29 percent .

“Of the six entrances, four have been built completely - under the roof, in another one, 15 out of 17 floors have been erected. What 29 percent can we talk about?” — Igor Vodopadov is perplexed.

Moreover, shareholders have at their disposal the results of three examinations, in which the readiness of the house is estimated at 75-80%. The same figure is contained in the response to a request from the general director of Monolitgradstroy LLC from the administration of the Khimki city district. In a document dated 2010, the then head of administration Vladimir Strelchenko reports that the overall readiness of the capital construction project at the above address is 75-80%.

Save on trouble

Meanwhile, according to shareholders, the unrealistic figure of 29% was indicated for a reason, and the issue here is not only and not so much the reluctance of DOM.RF to complete the building on Vishnevaya.

The fact is that based on the degree of readiness of the house, they plan to calculate compensation for failed apartment owners. The basis for their calculation will be the cost of real estate in the same monolithic brick houses, at the same stage of construction, so DOM.RF will be able to significantly save on understating the figures.

“Representatives of shareholders have already been informed that compensation will be approximately the cost of the contract concluded in 2003, plus 15-20%,” said Igor Vodopadov. “For example, I then paid about 530 thousand rubles , so there is no need to talk about buying housing with payments from DOM.RF - the cost of one-room apartments with rough finishing in monolithic houses in Khimki starts from 4.5 million rubles. ” .

It is possible that this is not all the savings. Shareholders are confident that no one is going to demolish their house, and a second life awaits it. “The house will either be sold at auction to a private investor, after which they can set up some kind of business center there and make good money on rent. In any case, the head of the administration Dmitry Voloshin spoke about the possible transfer of the building to the category of non-residential premises,” said Igor Vodopadov.

Shareholders do not agree with this approach to solving their problems. They consider the actions of the Foundation for the Defense of Citizens' Rights to be a raider seizure of their property and intend to seek completion of the building. This coming Saturday, July 18 at 1 p.m., a protest action is planned at the long-term construction site on Vishneva.

However, as it turned out after the publication of the article, there is a group of shareholders of the house on Vishnevaya, which takes the opposite position. They believe that DOM.RF is on their side and agree to pay compensation.

Point Point Point Point Point Point Point Point

An obligatory step in the construction of the first floor floor in houses is the laying of a waterproofing film, which does not allow moisture to seep into the room. Next comes a thick layer of extruded polystyrene foam, an effective thermal insulation material. If the owner decides to equip the house with a warm water floor system, then a reinforcing mesh is installed for subsequent fastening of the pipes. A cement screed is made on top of them. It consists of high-grade concrete, sea sand and fiberglass. The last component allows you not to resort to additional concrete reinforcement, which means reducing costs without compromising on quality. The flooring of the customer's choice is laid on top of the screed.

More than 70 clients have entrusted us with the construction of houses due to the fact that we have our own production in the Vologda region

We harvest wood in winter, which allows us to preserve the properties of the material, and we can guarantee the service life of the house for at least 50 years.

Our production is a full-cycle production, namely sawing round timber, sharpening timber on four sides in one pass, cutting crown joints according to the project.

We have a strict quality control system at all stages of the production and technological cycle.

We can erect a structure from timber according to a ready-made standard design in the shortest possible time.

Our wood is an environmentally friendly material. It is safe and capable of creating the correct microclimate indoors. There is no doubt about the correctness of the choice.

Thanks to our own production, we can complete even the most complex and large-scale projects of wooden houses made of timber in the shortest possible time!

We harvest timber, dry it, produce regular, planed and profiled timber of various sections, carry out control assembly of houses and bathhouses from timber with markings

Thanks to German technological equipment, the influence of the human factor on quality is eliminated as much as possible from the production process, and the high level of automation makes it possible to speed up even very complex and urgent work.

Our own production allows us to build frame houses from high-quality boards with the correct dimensions, according to GOST.
