Kuopio as an investment city:
Kuopio is located in North Savo on the shores of Lake Kallavesi. It has over 120,000 inhabitants and is Finland’s 8th largest city (Source: www.kuopio.fi). In a 2020 survey by Pellervo Economic Research, Kuopio ranked 1st among Finland’s largest cities (Source: www.vuokranantajat.fi).
Kuopio offers diverse services and good transport links, including several shopping centres, restaurants, cultural attractions and sports facilities, and hosts many annual events. It is known for its beautiful nature and lake scenery. Kuopio is attractive for property investors: the housing market has been stable and prices reasonable compared with other large Finnish cities. The city’s growing student population also supports demand for rental housing.
Housing company:
The company comprises one building with 26 apartments. The company’s finances and ability to pay are good. The most significant renovations have been carried out (see list below). The building is calm and the atmosphere is good. Letting prospects in the area and the company are excellent.
Flat and tenant:
This is a well-maintained second-floor three-room flat with a balcony. The flat has a dishwasher. It is let on an open-ended tenancy to reliable tenants with clean credit from 15 November 2025. The first possible termination date is 1 September 2026, so the landlord can expect secure rental income. A new dishwasher has just been purchased for the flat.
Rental yield:
The monthly rent is €925. The property yields €510.00 per month after maintenance charge, i.e. €6,120.00 per year. The flat carries a housing company loan of €59,134.12 (as of 30 September 2025). The loan has been recognised in the company accounts, so the financing charge is fully tax-deductible.
Valuation and market price:
A similarly sized, satisfactory-condition three-room flat in the same building sold in October for €119,134. The estate agent has valued this flat at €130,000 (valuation attached), so the starting price is over €47,000 below the market price!
