Property formation

Real estate development services include, for example, plot division matters, real estate development and registers in the Riihimäki site plan area, private road matters, address matters, encumbrances and other land-related contract matters, and takeover matters.

In order to build, the plot must be in the real estate register in the site plan area. The registration takes place after the official real estate delivery, the subdivision of the plot.

The real estate register is one of the basic registers of society in Finland. The real estate register includes property property information (text information) and location information, i.e. the real estate register map. Each property is identified in the register with a special property code and the destination area with a destination subcode.

The real estate register is public. Information from the real estate register may be needed, for example, in connection with a real estate transaction, when applying for a building permit, or when clarifying one's own and others' access rights. Information about the register unit is presented by a land register extract or printout taken from the land register.

The real estate register map and the printouts of the real estate purchase price register, which are part of the real estate register, are products especially needed by those involved in the real estate trade, such as real estate agents and banks. The land registry map and other real estate data are also needed, for example, in the planning and implementation of various construction projects, such as roads and power lines. For example, forest companies also need information on the location of property boundaries.

The land register is maintained by the Land Surveying Office and, in the major municipalities' site plan areas, or some of them, by the municipalities' property engineers. The real estate register, together with the auction and mortgage register, forms a real estate information system.

  • You can apply for real estate delivery, plot division or change of plot division from the city of Riihimäki in writing by filling out a delivery application. You can get the delivery application and instructions for filling it out from the delivery engineer.

    Determining the limit

    If the boundary marker indicating the boundary of the plot has been lost or there is ambiguity about the location of the boundary between the plots, a boundary inspection can be carried out on the written application of the plot owner.

    The limit is determined in the real estate assessment delivery. Delivery takes about two months.

    If there is no ambiguity about the location of the border between the neighbors, and the border does not want to be officially re-marked on the terrain, the landowner can order a border display, such as is made to show the location of the fence, for example.

    Freight delivery

    In favor of the property, a permanent right of use, i.e. encumbrance, can be established on the territory of another property. The encumbrance established in delivery is valid even if the properties change owners.

    Rights established as permanent encumbrances include, for example, road encumbrances, various water, sewer, electricity, etc. line encumbrances and encumbrances established for keeping cars. A burden can also be established for the waste collection site.

    Encumbrances are established at the request of the owner in connection with the subdivision of the plot or in a separate encumbrance delivery, as a result of which the established encumbrance is entered in the real estate register.

    The establishment of encumbrances usually requires a written encumbrance agreement between the owners of the plot, which must be attached to the real estate delivery application. The contract must agree on matters related to the easement, such as the use of the easement, construction, renovation and maintenance costs, and the compensation to be paid for the right of easement.

    Burden delivery takes about 2 months. In urgent cases, the applicant can speed up delivery by obtaining the written approval of all parties involved.

    Plot division and change of plot division

    A plot division or a change in plot division is drawn up either as a separate plot division or as a plot division acceptable in connection with the site plan. A separate plot division is drawn up for the area upon the landowner's application. The plot distribution map shows how the block area according to the site plan is divided into plots using plot block assignments.

    If the landowner wants to change the current plot division, a change of plot division can be drawn up for the plot upon his application. The conditions for changing the plot distribution are examined on a case-by-case basis, and the decision to change the plot distribution is made by a real estate engineer.

    Subdivision of the plot

    In the site plan area, building sites are separated into plots according to the plan by means of blocks. Before subdivision, the area must have a plot division according to the formula (see plot division and change of plot division).

    Subdivision of the plot is initiated by the owner's written application or by the subpoena granted to the area of ​​information provided by the district court. The prerequisite for subdivision is that the owner has a legal notice for all the properties and areas that make up the plot according to the plan. The mortgages of constituent properties and designated areas must also be the same, or only one constituent property or designated area may be subject to debt mortgages.

    In the site plan area, the condition of the building permit is that the plot has been formed into a plot in accordance with the valid site plan and plot division. Time for subdividing the plot should be set aside from the application to registration 1–3 months.

    Forming the plot in accordance with the site plan does not always have to be done by subdividing the plot, but the question may be a change in identity or a change in quality. The decision on identity or quality change is made by the keeper of the real estate register upon the application of the plot owner.

    Partitioning of the common area

    When dividing the general area, the streets, parks, squares and sports, camping, traffic, danger, special and water areas indicated in the site plan are formed into properties. The city of Riihimäki or the land owner can apply for the parcel delivery of the public area. The city of Riihimäki pays for the cost of dividing the public area.

  • The property formation team gives the property an address number when the property is formed. The street names in the plan area are confirmed in the site plan. The new street names will be introduced when the implementation of the town plan in the area progresses.

    In the station plan area even address numbers are placed on the left side of the street and odd numbers on the right, in relation to the direction of growth of the numbers. In a sparsely populated area the numbers are determined based on the distance of the property from the starting point of the road, so that the last number is omitted from the number of meters of the distance.

    If necessary, all interested parties and authorities will be notified of the introduction of street name and address numbering by letter and email.

    Address number plates for the property are acquired and installed by the owner of the property in accordance with the instructions of the building control. Street name plates are procured and installed by the city of Riihimäki.

    You can find out a specific address from the map service. In the map service, go to the place you want on the map and right-click on the "What's here" option.
