Real estate in Finland is mainly bought for leisure
The impact of the above factors leads to a series of ups and downs in the Finnish real estate market. The lack of excess supply on the market has already returned prices to pre-crisis levels. Moreover, experts claim that with overall economic stability, prices for real estate in Finland will continue to rise in the future.
Russians have long been the main foreign buyers of Finnish houses. Moreover, the southeast of Finland is the most popular, namely the provinces of North Karelia and South Karelia (which border Russia), North Savo and South Savo (located a bit further from the border).
At the same time, Finland's proximity to Moscow and St. Petersburg is far from the only advantage of these regions from a leisure perspective. It is in this region that the largest Finnish lake system is located, with few towns, all of which are small. This area is one of the few places in Europe where you can find a wide selection of land plots with their own shoreline.
Lapland is slightly less popular. This area is mainly of interest to fans of active winter holidays. Lapland has many Finnish ski resorts and winter entertainment centers.
If you have decided to move to Finland permanently, it is better to pay attention to large cities: Helsinki, Turku, Espoo, Vantaa, and so on. It should be noted that the most expensive real estate is offered in Helsinki, while in Turku apartments can be bought half the price of the Finnish capital.
At the same time, Russian residents buy Finnish houses precisely for leisure, not for investment. The lack of interest from European investors, the absence of rapid price appreciation, and the inability to determine future price dynamics – all these factors make Finnish real estate attractive only as a second home or a holiday home.
