Kinnisvaraõiguslikud

Kinnisvaraõiguslikud refers to legal matters pertaining to real estate. This broad area of law governs the acquisition, ownership, use, and disposition of land and anything permanently attached to it. In Estonia, the primary legislation governing real estate law is the Law of Property Act (Asjaõigusseadus).

Key aspects of kinnisvaraõiguslikud include property rights, such as ownership (omand), which grants the holder the broadest set of rights over a property. Other important rights include possession (valduses), usufruct (kasutusvaldus), mortgage (hüpotek), and pledge (pandiregister). The establishment and transfer of these rights are typically registered in the Estonian Land Register (Kinnistusraamat), a public registry that provides legal certainty regarding property ownership and encumbrances.

Transactions involving real estate, such as sales, leases, and inheritance, are subject to specific legal requirements. For instance, real estate sales contracts must be notarized to be legally valid. Disputes related to property boundaries, easements, or landlord-tenant issues are also handled within the framework of kinnisvaraõiguslikud, often through civil courts. Understanding these legal principles is crucial for anyone involved in the Estonian property market, ensuring compliance with the law and protecting their rights.
