Kinnisvaraõigusseaduses

Kinnisvaraõigusseadus refers to the Estonian law governing real estate. This legal framework establishes the rights and obligations of property owners and users, as well as the procedures for various real estate transactions. It covers a broad range of topics, including the acquisition and disposal of immovable property, the establishment and termination of encumbrances such as mortgages and servitudes, and the rights and responsibilities related to co-ownership.

The law details the process of registering real estate in the land register, which is a public registry that records ownership and other rights pertaining to land and buildings. It also addresses issues concerning lease agreements, neighbourly relations, and the protection of property rights. The Kinnisvaraõigusseadus aims to ensure legal certainty and facilitate the smooth functioning of the real estate market by providing a clear and comprehensive set of rules. Amendments to the law are made periodically to adapt to changing societal and economic conditions.
