Enforcement-seized forest, approx. 16.79 ha parcel, Hirvensalmi

The property will be sold by ascending bids in an online auction held on the website www.huutokaupat.com from 10 November to 29 November 2026.

Participation in the auction requires registration. The deadline for bids is 18:00 or two minutes after the last accepted bid.

The National Enforcement Authority Finland 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 accepted as the highest. The enforcement officer will separately decide whether to accept or reject the highest bid.

If it is not possible to submit purchase bids through the Huutokaupat.com service, a prospective buyer may submit a written purchase bid to the enforcement authority. It will be included in the online auction as the maximum bid in accordance with the automatic bidding system. The written bid must be signed and state the bidder’s contact details, maximum amount and the Huutokaupat.com item number to which the bid relates. A written purchase bid is binding and subject to the same terms as an online auction bid. The bid must be submitted by 18:00 on 26 November 2026 to the Jyväskylä office of the National Enforcement Authority Finland, address Vapaudenkatu 54, or by email to jyvaskyla.realisointi.uo@oikeus.fi.

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

Bids submitted in the online auction are binding. If a bid is accepted, 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

The buyer must immediately pay 20 per cent of the purchase price as a deposit to the National Enforcement Authority’s official funds account. The deposit cannot be paid by credit card. The National Enforcement Authority will contact the bidder whose highest bid has been accepted. The highest bidder must state on whose behalf the bid was made. Otherwise, the highest bidder will be deemed the buyer.

Payment period

If necessary, a payment period of no more than six weeks will be granted for the balance of the purchase price. The payment period will be notified separately. If a payment period is used, annual interest on the entire purchase price must be paid 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 used, the purchase price must be paid without delay after acceptance of the bid.

If payment is not made within the prescribed period, the buyer must pay late-payment interest in accordance with section 4(1) of the Interest Act on the entire purchase price until the purchase price has been paid or a new sale has been conducted.

Obligations and rights transferred to the buyer

The buyer must, at their own expense, apply for the parcel to be subdivided into a separate property.
