The house in Sørskogbygda in Elverum cannot exactly be called ready to move into. It stands as it was abandoned when the hash plantation was exposed two years ago and those who lived there were arrested. Only the cannabis plants have been cleared away. Those who used the house as a “greenhouse” were not of the orderly kind: The kitchen in the house. Photo: Inviso/Estate broker 1Kjøkken. Photo: Inviso/Estate broker 1Stue.

Photo: Inviso/Eiendomsmegler 1 The police in Innlandet revealed the cannabis plantation in Sørskogbygda in Elverum in autumn 2020. Three Polish men were arrested and later convicted. They were continuously expelled from the country after the sentences had been served. The property was confiscated because it had been used for criminal activities. – The owner has then lost the property right, and that is the reason why we are now selling it to get money into the state treasury, says police inspector in Elverum, Henning Klauseie. It was the Easterner who mentioned the matter first. No home styling here The property is listed for NOK 250,000 + costs. It is clearly stated in the advertisement that the house and plot will not be cleaned. A potential buyer must take care of that himself. – We do not have any resources of our own to carry out home styling. So it is being sold as is. With both pluses and minuses, so to speak, says police inspector Klauseie. SEIZURE: Police Inspector Henning Klauseie says it is common to confiscate property and assets that have been used for something criminal. Photo: Bjørn Opsahl / news He believes there is a certain value there, especially in the plot of land which is over six metres. He doesn’t know if the fact that people find out that the house has been used as a hashish plantation will have any effect on the interest. – It is clearly evident when you are at the screening. It is otherwise difficult to compare with the sale of other homes in the area, because this is something completely different, says Klauseie. “More possibilities of use” Thomas Skogli Rusten at Eiendomsmegler 1 has sold properties in equally bad condition before, but never a former hashish plantation. “Property by Kynnberget in Sørskogbygda with several uses, great location and good sunny conditions”, says the property advertisement on Finn.no. The estate agent makes no secret of the fact that the buyer will have a big job of clearing both the plot and the house, and putting things in order. POOR CONDITION: The house was built in 2004, but has been exposed to hard use. Photo: Inviso/Estate agent 1 – You have to spend money here. I wouldn’t characterize it as a residential property, I wouldn’t. But there are several who have shown interest. – We are probably up to 20. And approximately half of them have reported that they are either coming for a viewing or would like to travel and look at the property. But there are some who have commented that it is an extreme job just with the clearing, says Thomas Rusten. A good story He says that interest in these types of properties is always present. It can be a cheap entry into the market. With a lot of work and some money at the back end, you can get a nice property in the long run. LARGE PLOT: The plot in Sørskogbygda is six acres and has several buildings. Photo: Inviso/Eiendomsmegler 1 Thomas Rusten does not think that those who are interested will be frightened by the fact that the house has been used as a hashish plantation. – I don’t think people care that much about that. There is a story to tell, he says. Shouldn’t pay off It is not often that the police in the interior sell properties in this way. Often there are encumbrances, such as the bank having a lien on the property. That was not the case with the house in Sørskogbygda, and then there is a real, potential value, says Klauseie. Confiscation of property and assets following criminal activity has received increased focus in recent years. – It should not pay in any way to commit crime. You must lose the values you create through crime, and also lose things you have used to commit crime, says Henning Klauseie.
