 | | A third factor is that the bodies conducting the state registration of rights to immovable property, like most administrative bodies throughout the country, usually lack the material resources and qualified personnel to effectively fulfill their functions. |
 | | The Registration Law provides that the state registration of rights to immovable property and transactions with it (hereinafter state registration) is a legal act of recognition and confirmation by the state of the origin, limitation (encumbrance), transfer or termination of rights to immovable property in accordance with the Russian Civil Code. |
 | | Assuming that the rights to immovable property are ultimately registered on the basis of such application, their validity will be recognized from the time of receipt by the appropriate institution of justice of a complete application, the date of which shall be entered into the Unified Register (Registration Law, Article 16). |
