The choice of a construction company should be carried out as scrupulously as possible, because the safety of the equity holder's investments and the guarantee of receiving the constructed property depend on the reputation and reliability of the developer. In order not to contact one-day firms, it is important to thoroughly study the following points regarding the construction company:
It is necessary to study all the information available on the Internet about the company. First of all, you need to go to the official website of the developer. The more information posted on the resource, the more pages and links it contains, the better. One-page sites with beautiful pictures and attention-grabbing slogans should not inspire confidence, and even more so the company that owns it. An important point confirming the reliability of the developer is his work experience, objects that have already been put into operation. If you wish, you can and even need to visit the construction site or already commissioned houses, talk with workers or residents.
You can ask the workers about the timeliness of payments, ask about the availability and condition of tools and mechanisms, and the timeliness of the receipt of building materials. From the residents of already built houses, you can find out about compliance with the deadlines for the completion of the object, following the clauses of the contract, etc. When delving into acquaintance with the construction company, pay attention to the contributors. Know that a reliable bank will not invest in shell companies. The fact is that the investor himself first checks the reliability of the invested company. It would not be superfluous to study the developer's court cases: what claims have been filed, their number and grounds, and the prospects for paying off debts.
You should not contact a developer that is in bankruptcy or liquidation, has tax debts or other unpaid obligations. Having studied all of the above, also remember that discounts and low real estate prices in comparison with similar companies should arouse suspicion rather than desire to cooperate.
Continuing to get acquainted with the developer, you need to study its documentation: the charter, certificate of registration, protocol on the appointment of the head of the organization, an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. All these documents confirm the legality of the construction company. It would be useful to study the documentation confirming the right to build: a work permit, project documentation, papers on the right to a land plot (a lease agreement or a document of ownership).
Ideally, when studying the documentation of a construction company, contact a lawyer, because our life knowledge and experience may not be enough to figure it all out. In addition, the reliability of the company's documentation can be clarified at the tax office, which can provide a lot of useful information confirming, or vice versa, the reliability of the developer.
The type of contract that the developer will conclude with you is extremely important, because his obligations and your rights depend on it. Types of agreements that a construction company can offer in relation to a shareholder: equity participation contract, housing savings and housing construction cooperative, housing certificate. The conclusion of a preliminary or loan agreement are alarming signs, since they do not give the shareholder all the necessary rights. It is better to refuse cooperation with the developer who insists on a preliminary contract.
It must necessarily cover the following points: the subject of shared construction, a specific indication of what the shareholder will receive (area, floor, address, number of rooms), cost, payment terms under the contract, the term for transferring real estate to the shareholder, warranty periods.In no case can an agreement be concluded if the following points occur:
When concluding a contract, it is better to contact a knowledgeable lawyer in order to avoid unforeseen situations and not be left with nothing.
So, information about the developer, its documentation and study of the contract are the key points, having learned which you can protect yourself from losing money and property. Below we have presented a rating of the most reliable developers in Yekaterinburg. At the same time, we took into account all the above reliability indicators, as well as real feedback from equity holders and residents.

More than 40 construction companies are working on the territory of Yekaterinburg, of which we have identified four developers: Atomstroykompleks, LSR, Brusnika and PRINZIP.These companies have earned special attention from us and many of their clients, primarily due to their experience: Atomstroykompleks has been in the construction services market since 1995, Brusnika since 2004, PRINZIP since 2005, LSR since 2013.
The second reason why we chose these construction companies is their reliability. It manifests itself in the timely delivery of objects, the fulfillment of its obligations in relation to equity holders and buyers of real estate, the absence of debts and serious lawsuits. In addition, these construction companies provide their customers with several options for acquiring real estate, among which everyone can choose the best option for themselves. Each of them cooperates with more than a dozen banks.
These companies are also taking full advantage of scientific achievements in the field of construction, applying them to their facilities. This is manifested in the use of innovative materials and technologies. Each developer seeks to attract customers by offering new options for apartment layouts, equipping courtyards and the surrounding area, holding various promotions for the profitable acquisition of real estate. These are clear advantages that each of the 4 companies considered can be proud of.
Unfortunately, despite the huge amount of positive information about the considered developers, the reviews of the residents often do not show them from the best side. Among the dissatisfaction of buyers of new buildings and their residents, dissatisfaction with the finishing of apartments is in the lead. All of these developers offer a fine finish.It includes leveling walls for wallpaper, floors for laying flooring, but very often a fine finish does not allow people to complete cosmetic repairs and requires rework under warranty.
The second point of dissatisfaction is the quality of the windows. This is probably one of the most frequent moments of conflict between the developer and tenants. Windows are most often installed by contractors, from whom it is very difficult to get a sense, but still possible. The next point of discontent is the freezing of the walls and audibility. Unfortunately, these unpleasant moments are revealed in the process of living in a new building and are not determined at the time of acceptance of the apartment, and often residents complain about the disorder of the yards at the time of delivery of the house, which causes a lot of inconvenience.
Unfortunately, this list is not final and can be continued. Each developer, even the largest and most reliable, is not perfect, however, in order to avoid most unpleasant moments, it is important to be as careful as possible when accepting an apartment, do not rush to sign an acceptance certificate without checking all the little things, even seemingly insignificant ones.
