Vastikkeisiin

Vastikkeisiin is a Finnish grammatical form derived from the noun vastike, most commonly encountered as the illative plural of the word. The base noun vastike has several related meanings, including compensation or remuneration for work or services, as well as a fee or charge. In everyday speech vastike often appears in contexts referring to payments or fees tied to a service or obligation.

In modern Finnish, vastikkeet are frequently discussed in the context of housing and real estate. In housing companies, vastike refers to the monthly charges residents pay toward the maintenance and operation of common areas and services. Typical subtypes include hoitovastike (maintenance charge) and yhtiövastike (share of the company’s costs). The illative plural form vastikkeisiin is used when speaking about payments or funds directed toward or into these charges, for example in phrases like vastikkeisiin liittyvät kustannukset or siirtää kulut vastikkeisiin.

Vastikkeisiin also appears in legal and financial texts to denote money intended for or allocated to compensation or fees in a broader sense. While the term can describe payments in contractual or civic contexts, in everyday language it most often refers to housing-related charges. The form itself is a grammatical possession rather than a standalone concept; its meaning is derived from the broader sense of vastike and the specific context in which it appears.
