Foreclosed forest property, approx. 20 hectares, Hankasalmi

Method of submitting bids

The item will be sold by incremental bids in an online auction held on the website www.huutokaupat.com between 18 February and 22 March 2026. Participation in the auction requires registration. The bidding deadline ends at 18:00 or three minutes after the last accepted bid.

The Enforcement Authority is not responsible for the operation of the service provider's system. The highest bid is the one the service provider's system has accepted as highest. The enforcement officer will separately decide whether to accept or reject the highest bid.

Bids placed in the online auction are binding. If a bid is accepted, the bidder is obliged to pay the offered purchase price within the agreed payment period. Failure to pay the offered purchase price may lead to the buyer's liability for compensation under Section 25, Chapter 5 of the Enforcement Code.

The enforcement authority reserves the right to end the sale or to extend the sale period.

Payment terms

Deposit
The buyer must immediately pay a deposit of 20 per cent of the purchase price to the Enforcement Authority's official suspense account. The deposit cannot be paid by credit card. The Enforcement Authority will contact the highest bidder whose bid has been accepted. The highest bidder must state on whose behalf the bid was made; otherwise the highest bidder will be regarded as the buyer.

Payment period
If necessary, a payment period of up to six weeks may be granted for the remaining purchase price. The payment period must be agreed separately. If a payment period is used, annual interest shall be payable on the whole purchase price in accordance with Section 3, subsection 2 of the Interest Act for the entire agreed payment period from the date of sale until the end of the payment period.
If no payment period is granted, the purchase price must be paid without delay after the acceptance of the bid.

If payment is not made within the specified time, the buyer must pay default interest on the entire purchase price in accordance with Section 4, subsection 1 of the Interest Act until the purchase price is paid or a new sale is carried out.
