MOSCOW, April 18, RIA FederalPress. Specialists from the Association of Real Estate Service Companies (AKON) identified the best market players among management companies (MCs) based on the results of 2016. The results of the study, which covered 5 thousand enterprises, were announced today during a press conference at the Interfax news agency, a FederalPress correspondent reports.

According to the head board of trustees ACON Sergei Khrekov, the selection was made according to 4 criteria - the area of ​​houses served, the number of employees, the average area of ​​a house served (portfolio) and financial indicators. For each of the criteria, it was possible to get 250 points, the maximum for the sum of indicators was 1000. At the same time, the rating did not take into account the indicators of homeowners' associations (HOA) and housing construction cooperatives (HBC), since their tasks do not include making a profit from their activities, although, as Khrekov notes, HOAs are more effective than management companies in terms of economic potential. At the same time, he records an increase in the number of refusals from this form of association, since it is difficult and uninteresting.

It must be said that the main rating included 5 thousand companies, but the speaker did not read it out in full, but went exclusively through the leaders, bringing out general indicator. According to the results of the study, the TOP 5 best management companies included the following companies: State Budgetary Institution "Zhilishchnik of the Yasenevo District" (Moscow), LLC "PIK-Comfort" (federal), DS Exploitation (Moscow), State Budgetary Institution EVAZhD (Moscow), LLC "Exploitation GS-Spb" (Saint Petersburg). They are the absolute leaders of the rating.

According to the Portfolio indicator, the leaders in the TOP-5 included three companies from St. Petersburg and two from Moscow - LLC Central RES TSV, LLC Aurora-Vostok, LLC IEK ZhilServis, LLC Management Company "Cozy House" Kolomyazhsky and LLC "TSZh Stolitsa" The average area of ​​a house serviced by these companies varies from 74,971 sq.m. up to 141754 sq.m..

In the list of leaders in terms of total area of ​​serviced houses by region, the situation is more diverse. This rating includes two federal management companies - LLC "GUZhF" and LLC "PIK-Comfort", as well as companies from Krasnoyarsk, Krasnodar and Nizhny Novgorod - LLC GUK "ZhilFond", LLC "GUK-Krasnodar" and LLC "Our House" respectively. At the same time, the absolute leader is “GUZhF” - more than 16 million sq. m. meters of serviced housing (539th place in the overall ranking), in second place is the State Institution "ZhilFond" - about 9 million sq. meters of housing (294th place in the overall ranking) and the PIK-Comfort company closes the top three - more than 7.5 million sq. meters of housing (2nd place in the overall ranking). "GUK-Krasnodar" and "ZhilFond" serve about 6.8 million and about 5.5 million square meters. meters of housing respectively.

In terms of the number of employees, the championship belongs to 3 management companies from the Central Federal District, one all-Russian and one company from the Northwestern Federal District. The leaders in the number of employees are OJSC "Zhilishchnik" from Smolensk - 2481 employees, the State Budgetary Institution of the city of Moscow "Zhilishchnik District of Mitino" - 2341 employees, LLC "GUZhF" - 2174 people, State Budgetary Institution EVAZhD from Moscow - 1860 people and LLC "ZhISCHNIK No. 1 of the Nevsky District" » from St. Petersburg - 1694 employees. From general list Only one company made it into this TOP 5.

The leaders in the ranking in terms of revenue are companies with the largest volume of serviced housing stock. The absolute companies in this regard are GUZhF and PIK-Comfort. The revenue volume of the first is more than 3.757 billion rubles, the second - more than 2.433 billion rubles. The Krasnoyarsk ZhilFond has slightly less revenue - more than 2.313 billion rubles, the Nizhny Novgorod company Our House has much less - about 1.776 billion rubles, and GUK-Krasnodar closes the top five with revenue of 1.747 billion rubles.

According to Sergei Khrekov, this rating was compiled on the basis of open data from Rosstat and information published on the Internet resource “Housing and Communal Services Reform”. The AKON representative notes that the market is currently static in many regions of Russia and the competitive environment in the housing and communal services sector is quite weak and the public figure considers it necessary to develop it. To do this, he believes, it is necessary to introduce a unified federal license for registering management companies so that they can conduct their activities on the territory of other entities.

“If the licensing barrier is removed, it will promote competition. Even if more documents have to be completed for this,” said Sergei Khrekov, expressing hope that at the end of 2017 there will be more companies included in the rating. As reported in the certificate provided by AKON, so far the rating includes companies that account for about 50% of all multi-apartment residential buildings in Russia or 1 billion 154 million square meters. meters of housing, which serve 250 thousand people. The annual revenue of management companies under the item “Maintenance and Operation” is about 300 billion rubles.

What else to see:

Where heating, gas, water, light are provided, of course, they are very comfortable compared to your own home, where you have to think about everything. But at the same time, in order for the pleasure to be complete, the services provided need to be monitored and managed competently. For this purpose, apartment owners have the right to choose the most convenient form of government for them. In our article today we will try to find out: HOA or management company - which is better.

Management Company

This organization is legal entity or individual entrepreneur, carrying out MKD management. This business organization, which means its goal is to make a profit.

The main document according to which activities are carried out is the management agreement concluded with more than 50% of the owners of the house. The percentage is determined by calculating the area, not the number of owners.

The functions of the management company are to ensure the repair and maintenance of houses in accordance with the requirements technical regulations. In this case, owners have the right:

• to receive the information they are interested in within five working days after applying;
• information on the volume, list and quality of services provided;
• check the progress of work;
• demand elimination of defects and monitor the completeness of the service provided;
• from the first quarter receive from management organization report on the work performed.

On the other hand, the management company does not intend to reduce the cost of maintaining the house. In addition, its financial activities are not always transparent to residents, although the latter are rarely interested in this. Moreover, this company employs many more employees than the HOA. Accordingly, on wages They will have more expenses. Therefore, residents have a legitimate question about what is more profitable - the HOA or the management company.

HOA

There can only be one HOA per building. But one HOA can unite several houses. So, let’s figure it out, HOA or management company: what’s the difference?

Let's start with the fact that an HOA is not commercial organization, created in accordance with the norms of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation. At the meeting, the governing bodies are approved - these are members of the board (who are elected for a term of no more than two years) and the general meeting. Financial plan for a year can only be approved for general meeting. A report on its implementation is provided audit commission. And the management of the HOA reports at the general meeting.

If costs are distributed correctly, funds will be collected when needed. Financial activities The HOA is more transparent. After all, every resident can influence decisions on improvement. Without intermediaries between residents and the contractor, deficiencies will be eliminated at a lower cost. On the other hand, some one-time jobs may cost more. Therefore, apartment owners will benefit only if the management of the HOA consists of truly competent and caring people.

Management company or HOA: pros and cons

Supporters of management companies believe that the main advantage of their work is that they take into account the opinion of all owners living in the house. That’s what the management companies themselves say, at least, although it’s hard to believe. At the same time, experts clearly speak in favor of management companies in the sense that their services can be refused at any time if there are complaints about poor quality service. But it will take more time.

On the other hand, it can be problematic for residents to obtain specific information about the organizations themselves, although the law prescribes such an obligation for the latter. Taking into account the fact that the management company is a commercial organization, that is, one whose main goal is to make a profit, it can be unprofitable to give them full control.

So what to choose - an HOA or a management company?

Optimal form of government

Most experts agree that the best form of government today is a mixed form of government. That is, this is not a HOA or a management company, but a HOA and a management company. enters into a service agreement with the management company. Then all residents will know where the funds are going. Moreover, each of them has the right to ask the chairman for a report, and the latter must report. The HOA can also dispose of building property at its own discretion, as well as place advertising billboards on the facades of the building.

We create a homeowners association

So, if you were faced with a choice: an HOA or a management company, and you decided to create an HOA, to organize it you need to take a number of the following steps.

An initiative group is being created from among the owners of residential premises in an apartment building. Any resident can become an initiator. But in order for information, organizational and propaganda activities to be successful, you need to recruit a number of people that will carry out all the work.

Informing people about the essence of HOAs

Next comes the legal and information education of people by the initiative group. At this stage, you need to be able to clearly answer the question of whether an HOA or a management company is better. And also convince everyone of the benefits of the first option.

The answer here is already contained in the organizational and legal form of the company: if the management company is a commercial organization, then the HOA is a non-profit. It turns out that the goals of the first are, first of all, to make a profit, and the other is to solve social, legal, managerial and similar problems.

In addition, the management company distributes incoming funds according to the established procedure. But in the HOA - by decision of the meeting of its members.

An HOA can also engage in entrepreneurial activity, but in a management company it is the main type.

The profit received is distributed among the founders in the management company, and in the HOA it is used to implement the statutory goals.

Working with people and recruiting

The next stage consists of preparatory work to create an organization. For this:

• a register of owners is compiled;
• the HOA address is determined;
• The Charter is being prepared;
• looking for candidates for the chairman, members of the board, audit and counting commissions, chairman and secretary of the meeting;
• prepare ballots;
• notify of the meeting at least 10 days in advance;
• within the same period, this notification is sent to the compulsory medical insurance.

Meeting on the creation of an HOA

• selection of the chairman and secretary of the meeting;
• counting commission;
• about the method of management;
• the Charter is approved;
• select the chairman and other persons;
• a representative of the owners is appointed for registration of the HOA;
• choose the place where the information will be placed;
• choose a storage location for documents.

Other issues can also be addressed, depending on the needs of the home. However, if it was not possible to gather the residents of the house at the general meeting, then absentee voting is announced. For this purpose, ballots are prepared, and each of the owners votes.

Final organizational work

• list of owners;
• protocol of the counting commission;
• minutes of the general meeting.

The HOA is registered. To do this, an application is submitted to the tax office with attachments of the charter, information about voters, a receipt with paid state duty).

You must register with the statistical authorities, the Pension Fund, the Social Insurance Fund, the Medical Fund and have a stamp made.

After this, you can begin work by notifying interested parties about its beginning. To organize you need:

• obtain technical documentation;
• draw up a register of property, examine it and draw up a corresponding act;
• study the rules for providing for the population;
• study the rules for the provision of housing services;
• with direct HOA management it is necessary to conclude agreements with resource supply organizations, and also decide on the organization with which the receipt of funds will be recorded;
• and if management is carried out through the management company, then the HOA enters into an agreement with them.

And yet: HOA or management company - which is better?

It is up to the residents to decide which form of management to choose. But in Lately They are increasingly leaning towards a joint form of government. On the one hand, there are often cases when in a directly managed HOA the opinion of the residents is replaced by the opinion of one chairman.

On the other hand, it is not always the case that a person competent in technical matters is elected as chairman. But management companies employ specialists who often know better what is needed for a home at one time or another.

Conclusion

Having considered the question (HOA or management company - which is better?) and having made a decision in favor of one option or another, residents must understand that neither form of organization can be truly effective if the residents themselves do not take part in the management process. When they remain indifferent, do not attend meetings and are not interested in current issues, the HOA organization often falls into disrepair, and the management company sometimes inflates the cost of its services.

Therefore, for the better functioning of the house, caring owners are primarily important, who must understand that management comes from them, regardless of the chosen form, be it an HOA or a management company. It is then that business in the house will flourish, and the residents will be satisfied and happy to live in it.
