The legal coverage of business relations in the market of housing and communal services

Abstract

The article is devoted to the legal coverage of business relations in the market for housing and communal services, which are characterized simultaneously by their complex and socially significant nature. It is proposed to defi ne business relations in the market for housing and communal services as regulated by the norms of the law as complex property and organizational relations that develop in relation to the supply of housing and communal resources and the provision of housing and communal services. Business relations in the market for housing and communal services should be qualified as relatives. The objective criterion of cost estimation for housing and communal services allows us to talk about the property character of business relations in the market. It seems that the division of relations into basic and derivative is applicable to the sphere of housing and communal services. The peculiarity of a communal resource in entrepreneurial relations is the possibility of consumption. Business activity in the market of housing and communal services assumes the reimbursable character of the majority of relations, but at the same time, based on the objectives of the activities of individual subjects, the gratuitous character is also possible.
