SUBJECT: Extension of the validity of an engineer’s certificate until 31.12.2021 due to new objective values.

Dear Ministers, Mr. General

The Ministry of Finance announced a few days ago important modifications to the zone prices of the country’s urban real estate, as well as extensions of the validity zones of the objective system. At the same time, January 1, 2021 was set as the date of entry into force of the new prices, in order to give citizens whose zone prices were increased in the areas where their assets are located, the opportunity to purchase real estate or family transfers (parental benefits, etc.), benefiting from this transitional period.

Unfortunately, however, it seems that this excellent government initiative to facilitate citizens will be thwarted due to of the need to submit, from 1.7.2021, a “building identity” for each transferred property, a new and untried procedure, which requires a series of unspecified documents including the submission of a static adequacy study for the identity of even a small “self-sufficient divided property”, something that is possible and meaningful only for entire buildings.

If this is combined with the difficulties created by the non-reactivation of the KEDE platform for the favorable correction real estate areas, the new procedure for submitting transfer tax declarations but also the procedure for drawing up forest maps, then citizens and notaries will find themselves in insurmountable difficulties in drawing up any notarial deed, which will bring about a complete suspension of transactions and destruction of the real estate market, at the expense of not only of the citizens, but also of the State.         

You should also reconsider and accept the possibility of regulating arbitrary Class 5,which would be at the expense of the national economy, but also of the environment, to be turned into abandoned objects out of transaction, only through the submission of a “building identity”, within the period of validity of the law on trespassers, with the foreseen gradual increases of the Uniform Special Fine. p>

For these reasons we request:

*Yes the parallel validity of the engineer’s certificate is allowed until 31.12.2021, so that the Real Estate Market is not paralyzed and it becomes impossible for citizens to carry out legal transactions with the applicable objective values.

*To remove the static adequacy study from the conditions for issuing a “Shared Ownership” identity card, i.e. individual apartments, etc.

*To give thepossibility of regulating arbitrary category 5 through exclusively the submission of a building identity, within the period of validity of the law, with the legal surcharges.

At your disposal for any clarification and cooperation! -align: justify?”>           The President                                        The Vice President                                The Secretary General
