Objective: to analyze legal relations arising when administering by owners their shares in real estate, to compare theoretical and practical issues related to the admin istration of shares by the owners, and development of recommendations for improving the legislative framework. Methodology: general scientific methods of knowledge - dialectical, systemic, and stemming from the general private-scientific methods - comparative law, technical and legal, etc... Results: despite the fact that part 1 of the Civil Code of the Rus sian Federation was adopted in 1994 and there is a sufficient and diverse judicial practice, unfortunately, a unified approach to determining the legal nature of the share has not been achieved. Conclusions: the proposals formulated in the work complement and develop to some extent the relevant provisions of the Civil code, can serve as a basis for further study and solution of these issues both in theory and in practice.
