With housing, which is owned by the citizens, everything is clear – the owners can use it for a personal residence or to take employment for a fee, i.e. the contract of employment. Housing owned by the Russian Federation, its subjects and municipalities could be provided to citizens under contracts of social hiring, contracts of commercial hiring.

To obtain housing under the social contract of employment that does not negate the right of subsequent privatization of the premises, must perform a number of conditions: neediness, malakoot, etc. For housing owned by the municipality in commercial employment, these conditions are not required, but to privatize this housing, the tenant has no right.
