The authorities did not support the idea of ​​exempting entrepreneurs from penalties for the shareholders. The central bank and the government opposed the idea of ​​exempting entrepreneurs from fines for defects in the apartments before signing the acceptance certificate. This measure was proposed by the authorities of the Moscow region, hoping to protect the entrepreneurs from abuse by buyers. However, the Cabinet of Ministers noted that the initiative contradicts the Civil Code and violates consumer rights. The central bank also believes that if it is accepted, the shareholders will be at a disadvantage. According to the existing rules, the buyer must first verify the cancellation of the identified defects and only then sign the acceptance certificate. After that, you will no longer be able to rely on penalties for deficiencies. Therefore, when inspecting apartments, they increasingly rely on the services of professional inspectors who find defects using special tools. Developers have their own reasons. They complain that some buyers delay acceptance due to minor defects and go to court, which increases the financial burden on the companies. According to the partner A. A. According to Andrey Toryanikov, excessive payments to shareholders can jeopardize not only a separate project, but also other construction projects of the developer. However, in recent years the position of the entrepreneurs in this type of disputes has already strengthened: the court fines for them have been reduced tenfold, and the compensation has been limited to 3% of the contract price. Now the discussion of new relaxations boils down again to finding a balance between protecting the buyers and the financial stability of the construction companies.
