Kiinteistörekisteriote

A kiinteistörekisteriote, often translated as a property register extract or certificate, is an official document issued in Finland that provides key information about a specific real estate property. This document is maintained by the Finnish National Land Survey (Maanmittauslaitos).

The kiinteistörekisteriote contains fundamental details such as the property's unique identifier number, its registered name, and its geographical location. It also lists the boundaries of the property as defined by official surveys. Crucially, the extract details the ownership of the property, including the names of the registered owners and their respective shares if the ownership is divided. Furthermore, it specifies any encumbrances or rights that may affect the property, such as mortgages, easements, or other legal restrictions.

This document serves as a vital piece of evidence for various legal and financial transactions related to real estate. For instance, it is required when buying or selling property, applying for a mortgage, or establishing new rights over the land. The information contained within the kiinteistörekisteriote is considered authoritative and is used by authorities, financial institutions, and individuals to verify the legal status and characteristics of a property. It ensures transparency and security in property dealings within Finland.
