Five reasons to turn to specialists

Many people, especially in situations where an insured apartment has been flooded, do not turn to specialists. The result is a missed moment and lost money.

Who can assess the damage caused?

Don't throw money away on fake reports!

In accordance with Order No. 257 of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation, from April 1, 2018, assessment of the cost of damage after flooding of an apartment can only be carried out by those appraisers who have passed the qualification exam in the field of real estate valuation.

Appraisers who have not received a qualification certificate do not have the right to draw up and sign reports on the assessment of premises after flooding!

The final documents, which do not include a qualification certificate in the field of valuation activities, are invalid when applying to the defendant with a claim for compensation for damages in a pre-trial manner, and even more so in court proceedings.

The help of independent appraisers is mandatory, because:

• All costs for conducting an assessment after the flood still fall on the defendant.
• Otherwise, they may simply deceive you: they promise to “settle everything in their own way,” and then pay nothing.
• The assessment of an apartment after a flood should be carried out by people who have the authority to do so.
• An independent appraiser makes impartial conclusions, which cannot be said about experts from insurance companies, for example. Or “specialists” hired by the defendant.
• Without an expert opinion, your testimony will have no legal force.

You can prove your case for years in different instances. It is much more correct to hire an independent appraiser and receive guaranteed professional protection today.

Where can I apply for an assessment of damage from an apartment flood? Now you know - in Volan M!

Independent examination of the apartment after the flood - price.

The cost of conducting a flood damage assessment is based on two inputs: 1) the footage of the premises and the amount of damaged property; 2) the degree of damage to the premises and property.

For example, the cost of assessing the damage to a one-room apartment with bare walls will be lower than the cost of an examination for an apartment of the same footage, but with damaged property and good repairs.

To accurately find out the cost of the assessment after filling, you need to give all the input to our specialists. We can only say that prices for flooding examinations in Moscow are quite high, and at Volan M they are 15-20% lower than the market price.

Assessment or examination after flooding of an apartment?

Although the definitions of “assessment” and “expertise” sound similar, in practice they are very different. You need to know the difference.

To know exactly what to do if your neighbors are flooded and where exactly to turn first.

Independent assessment of apartment flooding.

As a rule, it is carried out in a pre-trial manner. An independent appraiser can make an opinion even without visiting the site. In this case, he is guided by the bay certificate issued by the housing and communal services engineer.

The procedure for assessing damage caused during a flood looks like this:

An independent expert receives a conclusion from the government service, and then, based on the data, makes a calculation of the damage.

The second option is for the expert to independently go to the site for a more detailed inspection and prepare a report.

Advantages of appraising an apartment after a flood

Rapidity. It takes less than a day to prepare an assessment document.

Low cost. The cost of assessing damage after a flood is lower than conducting an examination.

Disadvantages of assessment after flooding

It only works “here and now.”

The defendant may first promise to compensate for damages without involving experts and authorities, and then retract his words. If material damage from flooding has not been clearly recorded, then getting money will be much more difficult.

Since you will have, at best, only the flooding certificate (without an assessment of repairs after the flooding and an indication of the damaged property), work will be carried out according to it. If, during the time after the flooding, you yourself restored the apartment or threw away damaged property, then it will be almost impossible to prove this.

Independent examination of damage from the gulf.

Heavy artillery. Despite the higher cost compared to the usual estimate, it is completely worth the price. If you take into account that an independent examination during the flood is paid for by the defendant, it becomes an indispensable tool for your defense.

Advantages of conducting an examination

If the appraiser can make a verdict without visiting the bay site, then in the case of an examination this is impossible. An expert assessing damage from an apartment flood must arrive at the place where:

• Identifies the cause of flooding and identifies those responsible
• Finds the location of the leak
• Calculates the total area of ​​the damaged surface of the apartment in sq.m. , and also gives a conclusion for each room - area, type of damage, and so on.
• Compiles a complete list of damaged property.

As a result, the expert can greatly assess the damage to the apartment after the flood, and, most importantly, document all this. You become the owner of a document that has full force in all courts.

Minuses.

An independent examination when filling an apartment actually does not have any disadvantages as such. Conventionally, the only disadvantages include longer work compared to the assessment of flooding of the apartment. And also – the higher cost of conducting the examination.

However, you and I already know that the defendant pays for everything, and therefore this does not play a special role.

Examples of the work of our specialists

When is a damage assessment needed and when is an examination required after the flood?

There are two types of situations when the help of Volan M specialists is needed:

Compensation for damage after the flood without trial.

Situation: the defendant admits guilt and is ready to cover all costs. In this case, you need an assessment of the damage to the apartment after flooding without conducting a detailed examination.

It is important to remember that hiring appraisers from the defendant’s side is not the best option. If you want the cost of assessing the bay of an apartment to be adequate and the conclusions to be objective, we recommend involving specialists from our agency.

Compensation for damage after the flood in court.

Your views on how to assess damage from flooding in an apartment differ significantly from the opinion of the person responsible for the accident. He believes that there was no fault or damage or that the damage to property was minimal, but you insist otherwise.

The result is a trial. No need to worry, because we are nearby!

Key questions from our clients

Assessing the cost of damage from the flood is our job, which we have been doing well for many years. Volan M helped thousands of Muscovites. We have collected fairly complete statistics about what worries clients in the first place.

Below we have collected the most frequently asked questions from the company's clients, which may very well be useful to you.

What to do if your upstairs neighbors flood?

The action plan is as follows:

• Call the housing and communal services, which will stop the leak and draw up a report on the flooding of the apartment in the presence of all interested parties
• You need to obtain from the MFC or make a copy of the certificate of ownership
• You also need to obtain an explication of the BTI (for the floor plan) from the territorial technical inventory bureau for your district.

The last point is the assessment of damage from the flooding of the apartment. To do this, you need to contact independent appraisers.

How to assess damage from flooding in an apartment yourself?

If you are very lucky and the person responsible for the flood agrees to cover the costs, trusting only your words, then this is not difficult to do. Just use a calculator to estimate how much all the work and property restoration will cost. Issue an invoice to the defendant and wait for the money to be received.

Unfortunately, such “happy endings” are rare. Most often, assessing the flooding of an apartment on your own ends with the injured party receiving nothing.

You need an expert; flooding an apartment is a complex case in which independence usually does not lead to anything good. Therefore, it is better not to take risks.

What are the methods for assessing damage when an apartment is flooded?

As we have already said, there is a damage assessment as such and a more complex procedure - an examination of the bay.

My neighbors flooded me, how can I get money for repairs?

If you want to get paid, it is important to follow the rules strictly. We have already said what actions should be taken when a flood is discovered, but now we will tell you how to act in relation to the defendant:

• Agree on a time for damage assessment
• Call by telegram with notification to the guilty party. Don't just go up to your neighbors. Only a telegram, an oral agreement has no force, and the delivery of the telegram is recorded.

Actions of the independent appraiser:

• Inspection of an apartment damaged by the flood in the presence of all interested parties and drawing up an inspection report on the flood
• Preparation of a damage assessment report for an apartment flood
• Transfer of documents to the customer

If you act according to plan, then in the initial stages you will be completely protected from deception and arbitrariness.

Who should pay for the flood damage assessment?

If an apartment is flooded, judicial practice unambiguously interprets the extent of responsibility of the parties. All expenses, including the examination, fall on the shoulders of the defendant.

How is damage from an apartment flood calculated?

The calculation of damage depends on the qualifications of the cost estimate engineer and the current market value of the damaged property. Since the calculation process is quite labor-intensive and requires considerable experience, it is better to immediately contact specialists. Thus, in the Volan M staff, almost all experts have work experience of at least 7 years, which has a positive effect on the quality of work.

Where to go for a professional examination after a flood?
