Are foreigners allowed to own property in Finland?
When we asked expats in Finland if foreigners are allowed to own property, they answered...
"Yes, foreigners are allowed to own property in Finland. Non-EU citizens must obtain a residence permit in order to purchase property in Finland, while EU citizens are allowed to purchase property without a residence permit. However, non-EU citizens must have a valid residence permit in order to own property in Finland for more than three years. Additionally, non-EU citizens must have a valid residence permit in order to own agricultural land in Finland," commented one expat who made the move to Finland.
