Property Purchase in Tallinn is quite popular in the last few years. The average price of apartments in Tallinn increased by a modest 3.48% to €1,843 per square meter (sq. m) in 2018. Property Investment in Estonia starts to be very popular among the high number of ex-pats in Estonia.

Real-estate purchases are relatively condition-free for non-Estonians. It is worth mentioning that buying real estate is not directly linked to obtaining a residence permit though as it is in some countries.

The main websites that list the available real estate in Estonia are:

1. www.kv.ee 
2. www.city24.ee – both of them also operate in English.

The actual real-estate purchase agreement has to be notarized and the ownership has to be transferred to the Real-estate registry (or in other words Immovables Portal).

There are a few restrictions for people in regard to the type of real estate.
