Kiinteistönmuodostuspäätös

Kiinteistönmuodostuspäätös is a Finnish legal term referring to a decision made by a competent authority concerning the formation of real estate. This process, known as kiinteistönmuodostus, is the legal procedure by which new real estate units are created, altered, or consolidated. The decision is the formal outcome of this administrative process, establishing the new property boundaries, rights, and obligations.

The authority responsible for making these decisions is typically a cadastral authority, such as the National Land Survey of Finland (Maanmittauslaitos). The process can involve various actions, including subdivision (lohkominen), which separates a part of an existing property to form a new one, or amalgamation (yhdistäminen), where two or more properties are merged into a single unit. Other forms of kiinteistönmuodostus can include redrawing boundaries (rajankäynti) or forming servitudes.

A kiinteistönmuodostuspäätös is based on an application, a cadastral survey, and often involves consultation with affected parties. The decision details the new property's designation, area, boundaries, and any associated rights or restrictions. It is a crucial document for property ownership and registration in Finland, providing legal certainty regarding land ownership and use. Once issued, the decision is registered in the official property register.
