Imagine a real estate office where winter mornings begin under the glow of the northern lights, ski lifts hum in the distance, and international buyers browse investment opportunities just steps from pristine alpine slopes. That vision is now reality with the opening of REMAX Arctic in Levi, Finland — officially the world’s northernmost REMAX office.
Located at 67.8° N, 24.8° E, approximately 170 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle, Levi sits at the heart of Lapland, one of Europe’s most dynamic year-round destinations. With this launch, REMAX brings its global network, international standards, and trusted expertise into a region that is rapidly becoming one of the most exciting emerging property markets in the Nordics.
A Region on the Rise: Why Lapland is Attracting Global Attention
Lapland is no longer just a winter holiday postcard destination. Over the past few years, the region has experienced a powerful transformation driven by two converging forces:
- Surging international tourism, with year-round demand for ski resorts, nature retreats, and Arctic experiences
- Expanding industrial activity, strengthening local employment and long-term housing demand
This so-called “Lapland boom” has triggered a sharp increase in interest from both domestic and international buyers and investors, looking for second homes, short-term rental properties, and long-term investment opportunities.
Levi, already one of the largest ski and activity resorts in the Nordic countries, has emerged as a focal point of this growth. With direct transport links, modern infrastructure, and strong rental yields during peak seasons, the area is increasingly viewed as a strategic real estate hotspot — not just a seasonal destination.
Local expertise meets global reach
REMAX Arctic is founded and led by broker-owners Jaana Yli-Suvanto and Markus Mustonen, both of whom bring extensive hands-on experience in property investment and rental operations across Lapland.
Their vision is clear: to combine deep local market knowledge with the international power of the REMAX brand, offering clients a full-service, transparent, and professionally guided real estate experience in one of Europe’s most distinctive regions.
From its base in Levi, REMAX Arctic serves clients across Lapland, providing:
- Property sales and purchases – guiding buyers and sellers through every step of the transaction
- Investor property management – supporting short- and long-term rental strategies
- Cleaning and maintenance partnerships – ensuring properties remain in top condition year-round
- Cross-border client support – helping international buyers navigate legal, financial, and practical processes
By pairing local operational strength with a globally recognised brand, REMAX Arctic is positioned to become a trusted bridge between Lapland’s growing property market and the international investment community.
Strengthening REMAX’s footprint in Finland and beyond
The launch of REMAX Arctic represents more than a new office opening. It marks a strategic expansion of RE/MAX’s presence in Finland and reinforces the network’s commitment to serving both established and emerging markets across Europe.
As international buyer interest in Finland continues to grow, clear guidance and professional support are more important than ever. For anyone considering entering the Finnish property market, REMAX Europe recently published an in-depth guide: How to Buy a Home in Finland: A Practical Guide for International Buyers
which walks readers step by step through locations, legal processes, costs, and what to expect as a foreign buyer.

Whether you’re looking for a winter retreat, a high-yield rental property, or a long-term investment in one of Europe’s most distinctive regions, the team in Levi is ready to guide you.
