On the problems of protecting real property rights in the Russian Federation in the light of the European Convention on Human Rights

Abstract. The article examines five key problems in the field of real estate rights protection in the Russian Federation. The author attempts to find possible solutions, taking into account the positions of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR), as well as experience of foreign states and judicial practice in the Russian Federation. It was concluded that the position of the Russian Constitutional Court is not on all, but on many controversial issues in line with the position of the ECHR. Also, effective application of laws requires a more active position of Russian legislators in securing legal guarantees for holders of property rights to real estate and achieving a balance in regulation of relevant legal relations.
