Transfer contracts of 17 thousand forged real estate Engineer certificates from non-existence arbitrariness highlighted so farElectronic building identifier». According to Kathimerini, these are properties that were acquired from 2011 onwards and that the current owners have attempted to sell. However, when the supporting documents were “uploaded” to the special platform of the Technical Chamber of Greece, the engineers identified the illegal certificates granted by some of their colleagues in the past. According to the head of the Hellenic Notary Association, Georgios Roskas, serious irregularities, such as alteration of use or excess in amount and coverage, “disappeared” from these certificates.
The disclosure came in the context of Mr. Rusca’s speech at the Premium Real Estate Forum conference, which took place on Saturday at MEC Paianas, on the sidelines of the Premium Real Estate Expo. “We are facing a serious problem today as of 2011 so far we have identified 17,000 transfer contracts in which illegal engineer certificates were used,” Mr. Roskas said. According to him, these real estate for sale cannot be transferred, because the violations are mostly of a serious nature, which makes the original contract concluded in the past null and void. “We are talking about serious abuses, such as a change of use (such as an advertised warehouse, while it is a functional area of the dwelling) or excesses of height and coverage. Therefore, the contracts entered into for their initial sale are invalid, as a result of which the relocation of this property cannot be completed today Roskas confirms.
Practically speaking, the problem concerns those who acquired these properties from 2011 onwards and are today trying to resell them, discovering the irregularities with which they bought them. However, it remains to be seen whether or not they were aware of this. For example, it is not always easy to detect an increase in the height of a plot or coverage. Conversely, whether the declared storage area or basement is actually part of the house is clearly described in the contract, i.e. known to the owner as well. In any case, these people are required to “cure” a serious illegal problem so that they can profit from their wealth.
The problem was observed in the context of issuing the electronic building ID. This is the new requirement that accompanies every property purchase from April 2022.
It is an electronic “file” that includes the building permit, the floor plans of the property, the schedule of thousands of apartments in the building, any arbitrary settlements and all other documents and certificates necessary to complete the transaction, such as. ENFIA, TAP (real estate tax) payment certificate, real estate registration certificate, etc. The identity of the property is ‘uploaded’ to a special platform of TEE and then issued, in order to complete the sales contract. Thus, in the course of the relevant engineers’ controls, the illegal certificates given by their colleagues in the past have been exposed, so that the relevant purchase and sale can proceed.
