ulkoilmaosuus

Ulkoilmaosuus, which translates to "outdoor share" or "outdoor contribution" in English, is a term used in Finnish contexts to describe a portion of a building's total cost or benefit that is attributed to its outdoor spaces. This can encompass various elements, including balconies, terraces, garden areas, or even the overall integration of a building with its surrounding environment. The concept is particularly relevant in real estate development, urban planning, and discussions about property value.

When discussing new construction, ulkoilmaosuus might refer to the area or perceived value added by features like private outdoor living spaces. For example, apartments with large balconies or access to shared garden plots are often marketed with emphasis on their ulkoilmaosuus, suggesting a higher quality of life and potentially a higher price point. In urban planning, the term can relate to how much public or communal outdoor space a development contributes to the city, influencing its overall livability and aesthetic appeal.

Conversely, ulkoilmaosuus can also be considered in terms of costs. The maintenance of outdoor areas, such as landscaping, snow removal, or upkeep of communal terraces, can be factored into the overall operating expenses of a property. This is often reflected in housing association fees or service charges. Understanding the ulkoilmaosuus of a property helps prospective buyers or residents to make informed decisions about their investment and the ongoing costs associated with their living or working space.
