Recovery of lost real estate documents

Any owner or co-owner of a property can order a copy of the title deeds instead of those that have been lost, damaged or stolen.

To recover lost real estate documents, you must first submit an application for restoration to the body in which they were previously issued. You can contact a public or private notary. After all, all notarized acts are transferred for storage to the state archives, so it is possible to obtain a duplicate.

But there are situations when it is not possible to issue duplicates of lost documents on real estate in the traditional way due to various reasons. In this case, the problem can be solved by going to court. You need to file a lawsuit for recognition of ownership of real estate. The decision made by the court becomes the right-establishing document.
