The economic and global situation of recent years has tested the real estate market with an increase in interest rates and prices. The rise in interest rates, along with rapidly escalating construction costs, poses challenges to the daily operations of housing entities, constrains opportunities for investments, and puts pressure on rent increases. Despite the challenging economic situation, according to Moas’s budget for 2024, there will be no rent increases for the upcoming year.

The parking fee has undergone a slight price adjustment. As of January 1, 2024, the parking fee will be 10,00 €/month (2023: 8,00 €/month).

Come to hear about current affairs and get a glimpse into the future plans regarding housing, properties, as well as waste and water management in the Mikkeli area (Note: all speeches will be held in Finnish).

Welcome to MOAS!

Below are listed few links to the instructions and tips on our website, with which we hope that e.g. apartment maintenance and shared living will be easier:

• Apartment cleaning instructions
• Tips for shared living
• Contact information for maintenance
• Recycling and waste sorting instructions (link to Metsäsairila’s web)

We wish you a nice start to autumn and the new school year!

The customer service/office will be closed on Tuesday, August 15th at 1:00 p.m.

You can leave a message to the person you want by e-mail firstname.surname@mikalo.fi. We will respond to your message as soon as possible.

You can reach the Maintenance and Property Manager normally by phone or email.

Due to high demand, we have not been able to offer all applicants student housing apartment. However, our apartments become available every month throughout the year.

If your requests, contact information, etc. have changed, it is advisable to update the application by sending a new one or contacting Tenant Secretary directly. Please note that e.g. there are significantly fewer applications for shared apartments and some remote properties, so it is faster to become a tenant in them.

In other words, if you were to accept an apartment other than that indicated in the original application, please let us know via email for example. If you no longer need student housing at all, please let us know.

In all buildings sorting of plastic packaging will be started from July 1, 2023. We change some mixed waste containers to the plastic packages containers and some new waste containers for plastic packages will be brought to the collection point of your property.

Plastic packages:

• Plastic food packages such as yoghurt pots, deli meat and cheese packages
• Detergent and shampoo bottles
• Plastic bottles, canisters and cans
• Plastic bags and wraps

Only clean and dry packages. Caps, lids and pumps separate from the packages. Throw dirty packages into mixed waste. Take the waste to the waste collection point of your housing company.

In addition, the glass and ceramics sorting changes into the glass collection. Only coloured and clear glass bottles are allowed in the glass collection.
