Having selected the location for construction of their property, the investor needs to become the owner of the selected land plot or enter into an agreement establishing the right to use the land plot for development (superficies).
Next, the investor has to i) obtain city planning conditions and constraints (planning and architectural requirements to design and construction); ii) obtain specifications (conditions and requirements to the engineering support of the property under development); iii) draft project documentation; iv) have expert examination of the project documentation done (by listed expert organizations); and v) obtain a building permit from the State Architectural and Construction Inspectorate of Ukraine.
Having a building permit allows the owner of the property and its contractors to perform works such as construction, renovation, and major repairs.
