Dear shareholders!

The YuAP-SPb group of companies has been guarding the interests of St. Petersburg shareholders for more than 8 years. We are familiar in detail with the problematic situation regarding the O2 developer and specific problematic objects - the Forces of Nature residential complex, the Samoe Heart residential complex, and the My Element residential complex.

What do shareholders need to do:

    Receive detailed information on the state of construction of objects, including actual construction deadlines

    Assess possible risks, including the risks of bankruptcy of the developer, the risks of additional payments for completion and the risks of long-term construction

    Assess possible legal prospects in the case, including the possibility of receiving a penalty or complete termination of the contract

    Assess recovery prospects, i.e. the possibility of receiving money through court decisions or in pre-trial proceedings. Reliably find out the actual timing of such procedures

You can search for the information listed on your own, but it’s easy to get confused among all the “information garbage” and internally contradictory information on the Internet.

Lawyers and lawyers of the Group of Companies of the Southern Administrative District of St. Petersburg, as part of the campaign to support defrauded shareholders of O2 Development, are conducting free legal advice .

RESULTS OF A FREE CONSULTATION FOR YOU:

    Analysis of your contract with the developer

    Familiarization with successful collection practices (we show and explain how to get money from a problematic developer)

It is important to understand that contracts under the housing cooperative scheme and contracts for participation in shared construction have their own specifics. It is highly recommended not to sign any additional agreements with the developer or other documents without prior approval from a lawyer. Reckless actions may deprive you of the right to receive penalties for violating the terms of the contract or result in the payment of unreasonable compensation. Be careful!

Residential complex Forces of Nature is located at Leningrad region, Vsevolozhsk district, Murino, Lavriki highway, 64, nearest metro station Devyatkino and is positioned as an Eco-quarter. The developer Development O2 initially planned the completion date for the project in the 4th quarter of 2014.

2 years ago Development O2 offered to sign an additional agreement to postpone the deadline.

"Hello! I am a shareholder of O2 Development of the Forces of Nature object, the funds under the contract to the developer have been paid in full 100%. Initially, the completion date for the project was planned for the 4th quarter of 2014, at least that’s what they promised when concluding the contract; my family and I were counting on this date, since we have a small child. The progress of the construction of the Forces of Nature residential complex is such that to date our turn has not been commissioned, the deadlines are constantly being postponed, now there is information that, at best, the house will be commissioned no earlier than the 4th quarter of 2015, that is, the delay is already more than a year. It is currently unknown when the Forces of Nature residential complex will be completed. But that’s not even the question. Yesterday we received a notification from the developer that it is necessary to sign an additional agreement to postpone the construction period, otherwise we will not receive the apartment and the house will not be delivered. Please tell me whether it is worth signing such an agreement and what will happen if we refuse to sign it, if I understand correctly, we should not sign it since the construction of the house does not depend on us, we have already paid our money.”

Using the example of LEK "London Park", where contracts with shareholders were renegotiated 3-4 times and each time with a postponement of the transfer of the apartment, we can conclude that by signing an additional agreement, you do not receive a guarantee of receiving the apartment within the new period promised by the developer.

Everything turned out to be the same here. For more than 2 years, 2.5 thousand equity holders have been waiting for their housing.

May 2017. New developer.

Residential complex Forces of Nature will be completed in 2019

The shareholders managed to draw attention to the problem of construction of the Forces of Nature residential complex and in May 2017, the complex got a new developer - the RR-City Company.

RR-City will begin work from its own funds, negotiations are underway with Baltinvestbank about providing a loan. The investor plans to receive additional funds from the sale of apartments.

RR-City will continue construction of the complex and plans to complete it by the 2nd quarter of 2019: building 1 - by October 31, 2017, building 2 - by December 25, 2017, building 3 - by September 30, 2018, building 4 - by July 30 2019

On June 1, 2017, work began on the site of the Forces of Nature residential complex. It is planned to prepare the site within a week to continue construction, after which contractors will begin work.

In June 2017, RR-City LLC plans to hold a meeting of shareholders and sign additional agreements to the share participation agreements on new construction terms. Shareholders will be faced with the question of waiving compensation for delays in delivery in exchange for completion of construction.

For example, a penalty for an apartment worth 4 million rubles will amount to more than 1.5 million rubles! Which, you see, is significant.

To make it clear what amounts we are talking about for the developer, we will give an approximate calculation. For example, in the event of a 1-year delay in delivery of a residential building (complex) with 300 apartments with an average cost of 4 million rubles. the penalty for shareholders will be 270 million rubles. In addition, if the penalty is not paid voluntarily, the law provides for payment of a fine for violation of consumer rights in the amount of 50% of the collected amount. This is another 135 million rubles. Already more than 400 million rubles. Plus moral damages and representatives' services. The period of delay is already more than 2 years. Even taking into account the likely reduction in the amount of the penalty by the court under Article 333 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, as well as the fact that not all shareholders will go to court to collect the penalty, the amount still turns out to be cosmic.

The residential complex “Forces of Nature” is a block of 4 eco-new buildings located on the banks of the Okhta River in the village of Murino. According to the developer, O2 Development, the Forces of Nature residential complex should become a modern quarter with its own well-developed infrastructure.

The advantages of the complex, according to the official website, are:

  • increased size of windows in houses;
  • stylish and fashionable interior of rooms;
  • widespread landscaping;
  • bright colors of facades;
  • proximity to the metro station and the Ring Road;
  • convenient parking without entering the courtyards;
  • safety playgrounds for children and modern outdoor exercise equipment for adults;
  • clinics, schools, kindergartens, shops and other social facilities within walking distance;
  • The construction progress was covered on the project's official website.

Potential buyers were also attracted by the low cost of apartments and the quick delivery time of the project - the end of 2014 for first-stage houses.

Important! Experts note that the houses of the Forces of Nature residential complex cannot be called high-quality. The lack of documentary evidence of the fire resistance limit of load-bearing structures, the design of the water supply and sanitation system, the ill-conceived evacuation system for residents of the upper floors, as well as poor sound insulation indicate that life in such a house is unlikely to be comfortable and safe. In addition, these circumstances indicate that putting the buildings into operation will not be easy.

By the appointed time - the end of 2014 - it became known that the construction was being delayed, and not a single shareholder had received the keys to the new housing. The management of O2 Development stated that construction progress had slowed down “for objective reasons,” which included the economic crisis and legal conflicts with local authorities.

During the two years of downtime, the construction site was not guarded; the construction company made no attempts to protect the building materials. As a result, the pipes left in the open air rusted, some of the communications were stolen, and the other part was hopelessly damaged. The basements of partially built houses were flooded, as was the pit where the 4th building was supposed to be located.

Under these conditions, the panicky mood of shareholders was understandable. In 2016 alone, they organized 30 pickets, 2 rallies, and set up a tent camp. In one of the VKontakte groups, desperate citizens even discussed the possibility of self-immolation on Red Square in Moscow, however, fortunately, this idea has not yet come to fruition. Currently, the number of defrauded shareholders reaches 2,666 people.

Residential complex "Forces of Nature": latest news about long-term construction in Leningrad region

The latest news about the residential complex “Forces of Nature” comes regularly. The most important news in recent weeks was the information that from June 1, 2017, construction will be resumed by the developer RR-City. However, with the arrival of summer, things did not move from the “dead point”. This is explained by the fact that Baltinvestbank, which plans to provide a loan of 2 billion rubles to RR-City, is still auditing the project documentation. Lawyers for shared construction reassure shareholders and advise them not to panic, since preliminary consent for a loan from Baltinvestbank has already been received. In addition, as an additional incentive, RR-City will receive a plot of 23 hectares, located near the Forces of Nature residential complex, as its own property.

Representatives of RR-City name the following approximate dates for the delivery of objects:

  • 1st building - November 2017;
  • 2nd building - December 2017;
  • 3rd building - October 2018;
  • 4th building - July 2019.

But shareholders do not share RR-City’s optimistic attitude. The fact is that many citizens, tired of waiting for their apartments, terminated their contracts and demanded a refund. Since the contracts were concluded with the Murinskoye-1 housing cooperative and not with O2 Development, confusion arose with the definition of the defendant. Representatives of RR-City, in turn, directly stated that they are not obliged to pay money under other people’s writs of execution. The most difficult situation is faced by citizens who terminated the contract, who cannot get their funds back and no longer have any claims to apartments in the Forces of Nature residential complex. According to preliminary data, the number of such shareholders exceeds 50 people.

LCD “Forces of Nature”: what shareholders write in the unofficial group “VKontakte”

In May 2017, it became known that a criminal case was opened against unidentified citizens from among the managers of Romantika LLC, O2 Development and the Murinskoye-1 housing cooperative, part 4 of article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Fraud committed by an organized group.” or on an especially large scale or resulting in the deprivation of a citizen’s right to residential premises.” The sanction of this article provides for up to 10 years of imprisonment. Possible additional sanctions are a fine of up to 1 million rubles (or in the amount of 3 years' earnings) and up to 2 years of restriction of freedom.

The investigation suggests that the management of the listed organizations stole and used for their own purposes more than 6 billion rubles received from shareholders. The sole founder of O2 Development is a legal entity registered in the British Virgin Islands, and the developer itself was transferred to foreign jurisdiction back in June 2016. This fact, as well as the fact that there are multiple companies on the developer’s side, may indicate that the shareholders’ money may have been transferred to foreign bank accounts. In turn, the transfer of money could mean that the management of the construction company foresaw a “freeze” of construction and was preparing to protect the extracted funds from enforcement proceedings.

Comment from a lawyer from Legal Petersburg:

“It was known back in 2013 that construction could stop. When checking the reliability of the developer, some citizens drew attention to the founder, as well as to the fact that until now the construction company has not built a single residential building from scratch.”

In any case, this case received a great public outcry and was even brought to the attention of the President of the Russian Federation, which means that the missing money will be found. The criminal case is under the control of the prosecutor's office. You can find out the latest news about the Forces of Nature residential complex in the unofficial group of shareholders “VKontakte”.

There is a way out for shareholders of the Forces of Nature residential complex

Many shareholders, tired of waiting, terminated the contract and demanded the return of their money through the courts. Reviews about this method of solving the problem vary. For example, shareholder Alexey, who entered into an agreement back in 2014, independently went to court and then signed a settlement agreement with representatives of the developer. Under the terms of this agreement, the shareholder refuses to collect the penalty, and the developer undertakes to return the entire amount within 2 months. But the money was not paid on time.
