Seized forest property in Hamina, Hamina

Specific terms of sale

How to submit bids

The lot will be sold by incremental bids in an online auction held on the website www.huutokaupat.com between 4 June and 25 June 2026. Participation in the auction requires registration. The deadline for submitting bids ends on 25 June 2026 at 18:00 or three minutes after the last accepted bid.

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

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

If it is not possible to submit purchase bids via the Huutokaupat.com service, a prospective buyer may submit a written purchase offer to the enforcement authority, which will be attached to the online auction as a maximum bid according to the automatic increment function. The written offer must be signed and must state the bidder's contact details, the maximum bid amount and the Huutokaupat.com item number to which the offer relates. A written purchase offer is binding and is subject to the same terms as the online auction. The offer must be received no later than 12:00 on 23 June 2026 in the mailbox in the lobby of the Enforcement Authority's Kotka office, address: Vuorikatu 5 C, 48100 Kotka, or by email to kouvola.realisointi.uo@oikeus.fi.

Payment terms

Deposit

If the highest bid is accepted, the buyer must immediately pay a deposit equal to 20% of the purchase price into the Enforcement Authority's official account. The deposit cannot be paid by credit card. The Enforcement Authority will contact the 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.

Final purchase price

If necessary, payment time for the final purchase price may be granted until 16 July 2026. Any extension must be notified separately. If payment time is granted, annual interest on the entire purchase price will be charged in accordance with section 3, subsection 2 of the Interest Act for the whole agreed payment period from the date of sale until the end of the payment period. If no extension is granted, the purchase price must be paid without delay after acceptance of the bid.

If payment is not made within the time specified, 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 has been completed.
