Unfortunately most Finnish real estate agents do not have their homepages in English. However, below are three major Finnish real estate agents which provide services in English as well:
http://www.kiinteistomaailma.fi/en/
http://www.skv.fi/aspx/Site/CMS.aspx?path=/Yleiset/LangEN
http://www.huoneistokeskus.fi/aspx/International/Frontpage.aspx?lang=EN
In case you are interested in Finnish real estate vocabulary, here are translations both from Finnish to English, and from English to Finnish:

| Would you know if there is a translation into Finnish of the hymn which begins Bless this house O lord we pray Make it safe By night and day |

I searched from all the Finnish library databases, but I couldn't find a translation of the hymn.
The song is composed by May Brahe and the lyrics are by Helen Taylor. I searched music databases by the composer and also by the lyricist, but there wasn't any Finnish language results. All the results were in English. The song is very popular and has been recorded by the greatest opera singers.
You can find more information about the song here:

The finnish memory organisations have lately decided to centralize the digitisation of national cultural heritage. The new consortium is called Digitalia. National Library´s digitisation centre, which is located in Mikkeli, will form the foundation of Digitalia. National Library`s digitisation centre will start a mass digitisation of the National Library's sound recordings in 2007.
Information about digitised resources in National Library of Finland and international cooperation from links below:

There is a book ”Juttuja ja tuttuja: suomea toisena kielenä seitsemäsluokkalaisille, by Paula Konsti, Helsinki, Opetushallitus 2003 (text book for about 13 years old children who are lerning Finnish as a second language). There are also some cdroms like “Eka kieliromppuni: suomea” and “Opi suomea! lapsille”. Maybe you could also try some ABC-book meant for Finnish speaking children, there are several of them, for example Kallioniemi, Tuula: Sukkelat sanat:esiopetuksen aapinen. Also you could try some Finnish picture dictionary, for example Lappalainen, Ulla: Aamu, suomen kielen kuvasanakirja maahanmuuttajille, esiopetukseen, päiväkoteihin, erityisopetukseen, kotikäyttöön .
