Seized property with buildings in Miehikkälä, Miehikkälä

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 during 8 June–6 July 2026. Participation in the auction requires registration. The deadline for submitting bids ends on 6 July 2026 at 18:00 or three minutes after the last accepted bid.

The Enforcement Authority is not responsible for the service provider’s system performance. The highest bid is the bid that the service provider’s system has recorded as highest. The enforcement officer will decide separately on the acceptance or rejection of the highest bid.

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

If it is not possible to submit purchase bids through 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 the maximum bid according to the automatic increment. The written offer must be signed and must state the bidder’s contact details, the maximum amount of the offer and the Huutokaupat.com lot number to which the offer relates. A written purchase offer is binding and the same terms apply to it as to bids in the online auction. The offer must be submitted no later than 2 July 2026 at 12:00 to the mailbox in the lobby of the Enforcement Authority’s Kotka office, address: Vuorikatu 5 C, 48100 Kotka, or by e-mail to kouvola.realisointi.uo@oikeus.fi.

Bids submitted in the online auction are binding. If an accepted bid is made, the bidder is obliged to pay the offered purchase price within the stated payment period. Failure to pay the offered purchase price may result in the buyer’s liability for compensation under chapter 5, section 25 of the Enforcement Code.

Payment terms

Deposit

If the highest bid is accepted, the buyer must immediately pay a deposit equal to 20 percent of the purchase price to 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 considered the buyer.

Payment period

If required, payment time for the remaining purchase price may be granted until 27 July 2026. The payment period must be agreed separately. If a payment period is used, annual interest will be charged on the full purchase price in accordance with section 3(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 acceptance of the bid.

If payment is not made within the specified time, the buyer must pay default interest on the full purchase price in accordance with section 4(1) of the Interest Act until the purchase price is paid or a new sale has been completed.
