Administration of residential houses, in accordance with legal regulations, is a complex process that includes different important functions. Such functions encompass performing regular maintenance, sanitary cleaning and required repairs, as well as thorough planning and organisation, strict documentation and monitoring. Moreover, administration of residential houses includes communication with residents and cooperation with public institutions to ensure protection of rights and interests of apartment owners. Professional administration of residential houses requires a complex, responsible and very specific approach, covering a wide range of complex works. Housing stock administration is a thoroughly elaborated process with specific schedules and goals. It covers not only maintenance of engineering works and the building, but also administration of the surrounding territory and common-use premises. Moreover, it covers a precise administration process and efficient communication with residents of the building, and solution of routine administrative cases. An administration contract with a specialist in this field is not just a means but a tool by using which owners of a residential house, i.e., apartment owners, fulfil the obligations stipulated by law with regards to efficient administration of the residential house. Choosing the right administrator is important for the owner because it determines the sustainable conservation cycle of the building. A person is eligible to perform administration tasks in a multi-apartment residential house, when having obtained the required professional education in administration of residential houses.
