Summary/Abstract: Law of Republic of Latvia “Law on Administration of Residential Houses” states the obligations of the residential houses owners and the administrator in the process of transferring the liabilities and current issues arising from the Administration contract. Often, in practice there are disputes between the houses owners and administrator on whether the amounts owed by the residential houses owners to the administration and utilities suppliers are “the liability of the residential houses owners deriving from administration assignment”, “other liability” or the liability that does not transfer to the houses owners and stays with the houses owners. Existence of these disputes regarding the scope and volume of the liabilities being transferred indicates that the regulation of this issue is insufficient and emphasizes the significance of this problem. To find a possible solution, it is necessary to review the laws of other EU countries, and in particular, the laws of Estonia.This article studies the process of the legal regulation of disputes regarding the scope and content of the liabilities being transferred from the residential houses administrators to residential houses owner in regards to the residential houses administration agreement within the Republic of Latvia and Republic of Estonia.The purpose of the study is a comparative analysis of the laws of Latvia and Estonia in the field of legal regulation of disputes regarding the scope and content of the liabilities being transferred from the residential houses administrators to residential houses owners in regards to the residential houses administration agreement with the goal of further improvement of the laws of Republic of Latvia in this field.
