Mikkola plot material

The most important materials conce ing Mikkola’s plots are listed here.

The Mikkola plots are subject to an easement agreement conce ing access, the placement of cables and a waste collection point. The construction and maintenance costs of the easements and other terms and conditions are specified in more detail in the easement agreement. The rights and obligations of the easements will be transferred to the new owners/tenants of the plots.

Mikkola soil

A daycare centre building demolished by the municipality was located on the Mikkola plots. No general soil surveys are available for the soil on the Mikkola plots. When applying for a building permit, the recipient of the plot must submit a more detailed soil survey and foundation method survey for the building site. The recipient of the plot must note that the responsibility for the foundation method lies with the recipient/builder of the plot and not with the transferor of the plot.

Mikkola municipal engineering preparedness

The plots in Mikkola are not connected to the municipal water and sewerage network. The pipes run close to the plots on Jussilantie. The recipient of the plot is responsible for all measures and costs related to connecting to the water and sewerage network (water, storm water, waste water). We recommend that plot recipients cooperate in connecting to the pipes. In particular, it is advisable to enter into a joint pipe agreement.

Other cables in Mikkola

No electricity, district heating or fibre optic cables have been installed on the Mikkola plots. However, according to information received from operators, it is possible to connect to these services. The plot recipient must agree on connecting to other cables with the operators. We recommend that plot recipients cooperate with each other in order to connect to other cables.

Application guidelines for plots

Applications for Mikkola tender plots must be submitted using a paper application form. The tender period runs from 15 May 2025 to 16 June 2025 at 12 noon. All application forms can be found on the “Application forms for detached house plots” page.

You can submit your paper application in a sealed envelope to the TuusInfo customer service office in Hyrylä by 12 noon on 16 June 2025.

Plots are priced by the municipal council.

The sale price of fixed-price detached house plots is €225 per square metre in Northe Tuusula and €425 per square metre in Southe Tuusula, excluding the Tuusulanjärvi lakeside area, where the sale price is €600 per square metre. Detached house plots are also available for rent. The rent is 5% of the sale price.

Reservation fee

A reservation fee of €1,000 must be paid to the municipality for each reserved plot within approximately two weeks of the transfer decision being made. If the reservation fee has not been paid by the due date, the decision will lapse and the municipality will have the right to transfer the plot to another applicant.

We will refund the reservation fee to the recipient of the plot upon signing the final transfer agreement. If the recipient cancels the reservation, we will not refund the reservation fee.

You can buy or rent a plot of land for a detached house.

The deed of sale or lease agreement must be drawn up within the time limit set by the municipality after the decision to transfer the plot has become legally valid, unless otherwise agreed for a specific reason. If the execution of the deed of sale or lease agreement is delayed without an approved reason, the decision shall lapse and the municipality shall have the right to transfer the plot to another applicant. We will not refund the reservation fee due to the expiry of the transfer decision. We will agree separately

on the signing of the transfer document. The rights and

obligations of the plot recipient will be agreed upon definitively when the transfer document is drawn up. 

Purchasing a plot of land for a detached house

The buyer must pay the purchase price against an invoice to the municipality’s account before signing the deed of sale.

The buyer must apply for registration of title (entry of ownership) for the plot within six months of the date of the transaction. Registration of title is applied for at the National Land Survey of Finland. Instructions for applying for registration of title can be found on the National Land Survey of Finland website.

We can also conduct the transaction electronically via the National Land Survey of Finland’s property exchange service, in which case the registration of title will be initiated automatically. Please refer to the National Land Survey of Finland’s website for information on service fees.

The buyer pays a transfer tax of 3% of the purchase price.

Renting detached house plots

The lease term is 50 years. The

annual rent is 5% of the purchase price of the plot. The rent is tied to the cost of living index (in 1951, 100) in such a way that the rent specified in the lease agreement is the base rent and the base index figure is the average index figure for the calendar year preceding the signing of the agreement.

Upon signing, we will collect the rent for the year in which the agreement is made, from the start of the rental period until the end of the year. Subsequent rents must be paid annually by the end of June. If the rental agreement is cancelled for reasons attributable to the tenant, we will not refund the rent paid. In other respects, we comply with the provisions of the Land Lease Act.

The tenant has the right to redeem the leased plot at a price confirmed by the municipal council within three (3) years from the date of signing the lease agreement, provided that the building obligation for the plot has been fulfilled. If the plot is purchased at a later date, the price will be determined separately. We also charge municipal engineering fees and property formation fees for leased plots.

If we draw up a traditional paper version of the lease agreement, the municipality will apply to the National Land Survey of Finland, at the tenant’s expense, for the registration of the leasehold right and a mortgage deed secured by the municipality as collateral for the rent payment, which is five times the annual rent. For this service, the local council charges the tenant €250 + VAT in accordance with the 2025 price list when the lease is signed. If we sign the lease agreement electronically through the property exchange service, the tenant will apply for the required registrations themselves and at their own expense. Check out the service fees on the National Land Survey of Finland website.

Delivery costs and other costs

Before signing the deed of sale or lease agreement, the municipality will charge the recipient of the plot €1,100 in property formation costs in accordance with the 2025 price list.

If we sign the deed of transfer in the traditional paper format, the local authority will charge a transaction confirmation fee of €138.

If we sign the deed of transfer electronically using the property exchange service, the service acts as a transaction confirmation agent and the fee is included in the service fee. Please review the service fees on the National Land Survey of Finland website.

Construction obligation

The construction of the plot must be completed within three (3) years of the signing of the deed of sale or lease agreement to such an extent that the building control authority can carry out the acceptable commissioning inspection required by the permit decision. The municipality may extend the deadline upon written application and for compelling reasons.

The construction obligation is considered to have been fulfilled when at least 70% of the building rights permitted in the plan have been built. In the Peltokaaren area, the obligation is exceptionally 60%.  

Contractual penalty and damages

For breach of the construction obligation, we will charge a contractual penalty for the period of delay, which for plots for sale is 20% of the sale price of the property for each 12-month period beginning after the expiry of the deadline until the construction obligation has been fulfilled, However, the maximum period shall be five (5) years, and for leased plots, four times the full annual rent after the deadline has expired and for each subsequent 12-month period until the construction obligation has been fulfilled, but for a maximum of four years.

When leasing a plot, the lessee must transfer to the municipality a mortgage on the leasehold and the buildings located on the leased area in the amount of five times the annual rent as security for the fulfilment of the obligations under the lease agreement.

An undeveloped plot may not be transferred to another party. If the plot is transferred before the building obligation has been fulfilled without the municipality’s consent, the transferee undertakes to pay the municipality compensation, the amount of which is equal to the sale price for plots for sale and 20 times the full annual rent for leased plots.    

Building permits and building permit fees

Building permit matters are handled by the building control department. Please also familiarise yourself with the building control permit fees.

Once ownership and/or control of the plot has been transferred to the recipient, the municipality will open a permit application for the construction project in the Lupapiste service, where the building permit will be processed in its entirety.

Water supply charges

During the construction phase, we will charge the recipient of the plot for connection to the water supply, sewage system and storm water drainage system in accordance with the applicable rates, regulations and decisions made on the basis thereof.
